Bad batch/vader/dc interaction

Thanks to scrybe who unfortunately before gac made a video about this, you’ve made a team/dc unbeatable in gac. The Vader datacron which means he can’t die until the others die means people can exploit new bad batch omega lead with a random ally able to not be beaten. On first attempt you can kill the random ally, but after that no one can be killed due to captive not counting as a death. After that you can’t 2 shot it because captive needs a bad batch ally to take turns to reduce the captive stacks. This makes gac pointless. Can you please hot fix this (I’d suggest changing omega lead unique to “if all allies are bad batch” if you don’t want to change the datacron

    This blows. So now we all have to set this cheese because we’re in a prisoners dilemma. I mean I lost today because I didn’t set this and my opponent did. My opponent didn’t even full clear me so I had the win but  for this nonsense.

    That's exactly the problem we're facing!

    Fortunately (in this case), I don't have this DC - so I don't have to mind about whether I would use it or not.

    But for all players who could use it, this is a difficult decision now. And that only happened, because CG messed it up – as so often lately...

    However, I expect them to fix it, because the problem is too big to ignore it for weeks.

    It’s not cheating.

    It is, however, exploitation. Usually covered under the same ToS of cheating. Regardless if CG is at fault or not, it was not an intended game mechanic and no one would ever think it was. Period. To try to justify it as anything else is dense at best.

    Yet again. Exploitation is typically a punishable offense if you’re new to the online gaming world, just use “google”. Many world first raiders have seen their dreams crushed for pushing the bounds of what is legal via game manipulation.

    No team is meant to be undefeatable in this manner via a forced time out with no POSSIBLE solution. 

    That is exploiting the coding to make a system work and interact in a way that is NOT intended, and typically when you say yes to agreeing to ToS, you’re saying you won’t do that. I could be wrong but doubtful.

    Report your opponent for cheating anyway.  Even if you think it's not, the more reports they get about this from GAC, the (hopefully) faster they will address it and make a fix for it.

    These forums may or may not get them spun up about it, but cheater reports piling up will.

    Can you name users in the forum? Can’t recall. Wouldn’t mind starting a shame/exploitation list. Probably violates rules though.
