what exploit theres no exploit and no bug
each variant has its own initial cooldown.
"It funny how you assume that they specially make it so that people get a mech more often and for longer"
that is exactly the reason they are making this change lol
they want people to use mechs more and more often
they lower the cooldown from 90 seconds to 60 second and making the mech last 20 seconds longer then the current 60 seconds
if thats not wanting to make people use the mechs faster and longer then i dont know how else to explain it
watch the stream again at 56 minute mark
he says he feels bad that players only get to call the mech once in a vanquish confirmed round that last 6 minutes
and they want the player to be able to call the mech a number of times in that time
A NUMBER OF TIMES = more then one = lots of times = more then one mech = plenty of mechs = MORE MECHS = they want more mechs = they made changes to cooldown and stamina so there will be more mechs = there will be more mechs = MORE MECHS

It a exploit in a way that popcap probably not intended for people to change imp variant to get a Z-mech sooner. Compare to cactus drone, which always have the same cooldown no matter the variant.
It true that they said they wanted people to have at least two Z-mech in a game of team vanquish with that change, cus they said it. I'm just saving that they probably intended it to only affect the first Z-mech of a Imp player and simply didn't know that the initial cooldown is different for every variant. Also they never said how much the mech stamina is gonna be boosted,just that it will be longer.
At any case it something that need to be fixed before people start to abuse it.
