Map Selection Exploit

PostSat Mar 08, 2014 6:56 pm

Well, sort of.

After you accept the match, but before you select you units, you can alt+F4 or whatever shut down game, which cancels match without forfeiting a loss. (everyone knows about this right?) Which is good for dodging people with annoying golems, or you're just sick of playing against. That screen also shows what map will be played on, which means an entrepreneuring player can cherry pick his map.

If everyone exploits the same system its a good as fixed! You're welcome. :lol:

That was the problem I described in another post:

Theoretically the developers said you should get a loss if you try that exploit, but that's not what happens at the moment.

Hi,

this leads to a loss of fiability, which means longer waiting time before playing. Or passing to the "leaver bracket".
It's not intended to be a loss, as game is not really started, but measures could be taken if this comportment is now frequently seen.
It's a "Leaver", actually not displayed in your profile tab.
