Simple Question About the Heads Shot event.

rvd007

Hey guys, I just wanted to thank Grumpy for being fair about the abusing the head shots event, much appreciated.
I was also wondering how much less we got for farming the EP.
I did around 1700 legitimate head shots, after I found out farming is not really allowed. I ended up getting around 9000 EP, thats 5 ep for each kill.
Don't worry guys I'm not complaining, I simply want to learn about how it worked out.
Thanks :P, also apologies for creating a thread about this subject, but what else could I do O.O, I wanted the community's opinion...


edit: I was making this post while the making of the one under me was being made so i missed it, dont give me too much hate

you might probably farmed this event otherwise you would receive the 170000 EP.

GM Grumpy always comes up with great news though

I did farm it, as you might have seen if you read it lol...
Just surprises me, I under stand removing all of the farmed kills out, but 4-5 EP per kill is an overkill haha.

This is tbe response of GM on his topic:Attention Mercenaries,

The Holiday Headshots event have not ended yet. It will end at 11 PM today when we take the servers down for maintenance. Until then, all play records are saved and calculated.

During the maintenance, the EP from the event will be distributed for users. Once you receive the EP, if you believe you should've received more, then please submit a support ticket and the support staff will answer you with information about your play record during this event, and if any games did not count, they will explain why.

Please wait until the maintenance is over before submitting a support ticket. Please also do not post repetitive threads on the forums regarding this event, as all possible information will be shared through support tickets for your specific account. As this event depends on numbers your account achieved, each case is different.

Thank you.

Thanks for this but, he also said it will be significantly lower, so I simply want to know how much lower, and from other people's posts, I can see... its pretty darn low.

I think they made it x5 for everyone who farmed.

I do no how they check ho farm and ho not..but i can tell you i was played only public full room 12 minutes and making 50/80kills ...

Yep. Even you farmed only 1 game you would still get 5 EP only per kill. Maybe people should consider this before farming events next time.

Wow you are right... I got over 4k headshots and got around 20k ep but the funny thing is that I didn't farm a single kill. Is it possible that people with good scores/high kdr's got flagged for "farming" or something else forbidden?

Yeah I have the same problem. Also 20,000 EP only. I made at least 2,000 headshots WITHOUT farming ONLY YESTERDAY

Sent a ticket already. If I dont get my EP I will not participate to events anymore. I dont see a reason why I should suffer from farmers when I played 5-10 hours legit almost every day...

For those who didn't see the post grumpy made http://forum.z8games.com/showthread.php?322080-Holiday-Headshots-December-21st

I have farmed couple of games but I've done 3393 Headshots legit before last update and they took over 800 kills of mine as well ..
3k headshots in pub games is over 90 hours I played really a lot ... I played even drunk when I came from birthday didn't sleep much either to receive 17k EP
Will see what support is going to answer but if it's not going to fix anything I will be heading towards something else

Yeah, I have a similar case. They did NOT announce anything before.. and now 24 hours before the event ended they said farmer headshots will be removed. So I took the whole day yesterday to get as many headshots as I could in a legit way. If they do not reward that I will tell my friends to move to another game....

Better to let GM the will be engaged in the ranked matches hackers , and glich the Arena !!!
And none farming!!

WARHAWK

There was no abuse on your half, he's just a little slow. Don't worry about it. These GM's come and go lolol. A welcome in advance for the next one!

[GM]Cinder

If there is any issues with the amount of EP received, please feel free to send us a support ticket and we will look up individual cases with this event, and will respond accordingly.

The only thing that i got from this event is that support doesn't even take the time to see if the player farmed or no, in my case 2 tickets and the answer was the same, and this just prove that there is no "look up individual cases with this event", and I asked a question on my ticket with No Answer

If you got the same answer, that's the final answer- I can confirm we are investigating each individual person's case. If you have evidence, you may try to submit that.

I got 2k kills with around a 3.0 kdr. It gave me 200k ep. They assume you farm if you get like 150-5 score in hs only. With the amount of chainsaw sprayers now, 150-5 is not possible if you don't farm or sit in base with a sniper.

djborek

I think they randomly choose who gets ep, 10 people will not get one. Honestly I drove 2k and I did not get, Friend farm 5k and got ...

TopOwner1

All i can say is that this is so unfair, GM's made mistake by giving this event because a lot of people made lot of EP, so the best way to clean up the mess is to say "farmers will not get anything".. Its ok,you are moderating this game,but next time when you make event,make notice "FARMING IS NOT ALLOWED" and not like this,and you shoud say if you farmed dont play it anymore,in my case i did 592 kills by farming and 1061 regular, and got only 5500 EP.
I just want to say good bye to this game afther 6 years of playing it....
I understanded this as humiliation by giving me 5500 EP for making 1060 Head shots,but ok as i said you are masters here...
Feel free to ban me permanently afther 6 years,i dont care anymore,this game is now hackers paradise

I would be surprised if that was the case, but as I can see there is nothing we can do, i don't know if you remember the event of Halloween where we had to resolve so clues that they gave, they failed to give a clue one one of the days, after that the last day clue wasn't given at proper hours for some people, which was my case since when it was release it was Midnight where I live, and had to go to bed because I had work on the next day, meaning that I had no change to make IT. In the end they didn't care.

PwnKillMan

My ep got reduced aswell but I didn't participate at all in any kind of fishy or illegal behavior. I didn't use glitches, farm or cheat but still got punished. Support keeps on giving me the same answer without giving any kind of info on my problem.

rvd007

GM close this thread, too many cry babies .___.
I simply wanted to know if the amount of EP the farmers received for their legitimate kills after farming is what it is.
Seems like people got 5 EP per kill as intended as seen from the crying kids lol.

As has been mentioned on quite a few threads in the past, there are no 'automated' messages. I can literally walk over and see the people answering your tickets. If you haven't sent a ticket, please do so, as this forum cannot help you with this event and the support system workers have the answers.
