    JD, I think this is a terrible idea. Reason is i have two turfs that I loaded with too many warehouses. No idea there was a limit or glitch and never used the additional warehouse slots for hopping but rather to store agents. Your suggesting Im reset and would lose all the locations I have driven to on vacations this summer? In not going to be in NC for another two years why should I lose that area!

    The undeniable fact in all of this is that there was a ticking time bomb built into the first release. That, coupled with the dev's lack of oversight, created a set of circumstance that could only have led to what we have here today. The party ultimately responsible is the one that did not notice the ticking time bomb built into their product, not a group of customers rigorously experimenting with a flawed and rushed 4 week old new release. Just an admission of some culpability on the dev's part would go a long way.

    As the fix is now if I understand correctly my two bases will have the excessive warehouses roved and added back into my items. I don't have any turfs set to be removed because none were built using the additional slots so I think that I a fair approach. As long as my items are returned.

    I'm fine with this. Reset all Super Basers. Refund all Tiberium. Not resources or money. Tiberium counters are not reset. The bonus for new territory is included in the Tib refund.

    But false what about those that didn't use the extra slots for hopping?

    Hey I capped a base that had 10 upgrades....what happens to me in Jim's situation? I did not creat it nor did i use it to super hop, heck I didn't even know why it had 10 total upgrades. So it's barely a super base and I got a message saying it would be broken down which is fine by me but would I get reset....that would be terrible because I would lose turf I had in far away places that I got and might never be back there? I like the idea of this and seriously if you did a super hop u should not get to stay there in my opinion....that includes tearing down turf u capped once in those cities IMO but any way u look at it it's a mess that Nick has on his hands. Sorry Nick I would not wish this on anyone!

    I'm pretty sure nick can tell if you built it or aquired it...

    Jim, do you see where I'm coming from?

    Yeah I do. It sould be pretty easy for nick to see what upgrades were on the base. If there were no driving academies then I have no problem with the account remaining after removing the extra upgrades. It would pretty obvious that you didn't intend to hop with it. If on the other hand it was loaded up with driving academies.... Good luck making the case that you didn't intend to use it for hopping.

    Yes I don't think it's a good fit for everyone.

  • CoachStox

    That's fair! That makes sense!

  • CoachStox

    Lots of work ahead for the mods!

  • ▪False▪

    I have a final solution.

    Fucking destroy not the base. But every upgrade on it. Don't refund. Just fucking nuke it.
    This is so idiotic.
    I'm not even affected and it is pissing me off. -_-

    Stupid idea. The Chairmans idea takes it back to the pre-exploit mindset. I spent a few hours driving around central Arkansas for this game. It was a great drive and saw new places but I won't do it again. Now if your suggestion is to reset voluntarily if you are an exploiter, yeah cool. I was under the impression that people were spending lots of cash to hop. Their "cheating" shouldn't affect anyone else. I am happy with pre-exploit mindset. By resetting everyone you're fucking those that got on the game early and tapped every few minutes for days to gain an advantage. I read almost every single post made and have been involved in dozens since this game went main stream. ....

    It would be pretty easy to see that you never made a super base. You would of course not be reset.

  • Treybo130

    Yeah I see the flaw in my comment. I was tracking all the other ideas and thought this was another mass fix. The US military has a way of making everyone wear diapers when one person shits their pants. I'm down with a few guilty parties wearing diapers.

  • Idonoghue

    How about we combine Jim and Nick's ideas. Some can choose to be corrected Nick or Jim's way depending on what suits their situation best. Thoughts?
