Really Bioware? Stealth patching?
Probably the lowest thing I've seen from the studio ever - to patch a known exploit and not even detail it in the patch notes - really hoped you could slide it under the rug huh? In case anybody i...

you guys are crying because.. they stopped you from cheating AT A SINGLE PLAYER GAME? this game deserves everything it gets.
I'm crying because I had to cheat in the first place. It should not take 10+ runs of the game to be able to research everything.
In Mass Effect 1 2 and 3, you could get your gear to X in 2 runs because it was all purchased.
I'm sorry, but if you think I'm crying about the exploit - then you're misunderstanding. I'm crying about the fact I ever had to exploit in the first place. Being able to exploit research didn't make the game easier - it wasn't a cheat - it just saved me a tonne of time and actually let me use variety in my gear.
The way the current system is designed, you're basically stuck using the same weapons because it takes multiple runs to get enough research to make even a handful of weapons viable.
I'm sorry but as somebody who beat the game 4 times now, including on their broken Insanity at level 132 with a 52 level scaling difference - I shouldn't be punished with more grind for no reason. Even with 4 playthroughs - and about 2 months now of exploiting, I only have half the research done! That's absurd, if you think that's acceptable then you can just back out of this thread because I'm not going to agree with you.
I've already played the game 4 times, I beat it at it's absolute most difficulty.... I don't want to walk around and scan things all day - do you? Do you really want to play the game 10 more times just to research stuff?
