Rewards for finding exploits.
vedaras:
nah if anyone should ger rewards its devs for creating game not us for playing :>
Drakonis:
Message to everyone who says "Making the game better would should be enough reward for exploit finders": Try to think.
Few facts:
- Many people PLAY 2238 and not really test/report any bugs/want to make the game better. Most of guys with their gang and powerbuild just want to have an adventage over others. So if they find a money exploit that will easly get them 100k caps per day then I doubt they gonna tell it to anyone ESPECIALLY DEVS, because that's how they can have even more adventage over other factions and players. Many MANY pixeljunkies play 2238 and IMO they have to be tempted with HUGE rewards just like blah said.
- we will all be wiped sooner or later. You guys rather to say "Fuck it I dont want a extra 100 skill points guy running around, just let him have his exploit and have an infinity source of caps and weapons for eternity". Well I rather see a guy rewarded for telling the exploit than having that unreported exploit abused after next wipe and after another and another and another.
I vote for yes. Devs should reward and temp people to help them get rid of dangerous unbalancing exploits.

A list of bugs/exploits that devs are allready aware and they are working on a fix would come in handy, right?(just a short notice, not a guide on how to do it)
virus341:
The bug with so called "kitting", when the whole enc is chasing you and your friend stands still in the center with 10mm pistol, making headshots untill hitting IK is well known I think.
2238 mob AI is much more interesting in this plan compared to TLA ( I didn't play much after wipe there, but if you encounter Group1 vs Group2 fights, they dont care about you untill all their enemies are dead or untill you start to loot bodies).
