Sometimes I get so excited at all the INTENSE pvp action in RV, when I hibe I want to buy the game all over again. 
Also there was one guy who had it set up to a bind or macro or something where he would vanish mid spike. Too pr0.
As others have said, your better option is just spend the time to make yourself better where you either :
Actually coordinate your damage better instead of just mindlessly spamming it, hoping to wear them down and get them into hibe so you can camp them.
Learn about projectile speed and which attacks are better suited for actually breaking hibe.
AS someone instead of following them around for 10 minutes and just throwing sharks.
Take a moment to remember who used hibe/phase recently, after they come out/come back go for them during the no phase period.
I've seriously seen maybe 2 or 3 people using this in freedom RV in the past 2 weeks. Its not this widespread exploit that everyone is using. I've also seen those same people end up dead using the above tactics.

1. you have to rest up 2. you lose eventuall buffs you had (AM, veng etc) 3. If feeding other side kills is my issue, than i deal with it how i want to ( and i choosed to hiber/quit/arena). Also, i would love to see you surviving on cold corr with 1450Hp (for example) vs team of psi/em blasters w/o hiber/phase :P |
I also get gitty in RV and when there are like 12 scrappers and a TA surrounding me I just love it so much I try to buy the game allllll over again.

I mean, he had it coming making us chase him for ten minutes Jeez...But....before he breaks the Log off countdown begins while he is hibernating. Then three seconds into countdown the squishy disappears. Then he reappears seconds later, breaks out of ice block and has a full twenty second PvP countdown and runs to base. I don't like this ! ! LOL
Please Fix the HiberQuit Exploit. Thank you.... |
In my experience in PvP Zones often times those that are nigh-invulnerable won't fight with others that are in the same position. It appears that they would rather "beat down" those that have no chance of defeating them.
It seems like a very good balance to allow those that have no chance of defending themselves - let alone defeat their opponent - to get away.
It's a risk versus rewards issue.
Obviously, some PvP toons have "very little risk to no risk" to gain their rewards.
Other PvP toons have "little to no chance of been anything more than rewards for other players" (aka "they are all risk and no reward").
If you want to drive even more players from PvP, then fix this "exploit". I think there are hundreds more exploits that need to be looked at and fixed before this one - that includes others exploits in PvP zones.

What about this: A person in hibernate uses a 2nd account to recall friend himself the split second he comes out of hiber. Yes, it's easily done with accurate timing.
Is that an exploit too? Because the result is exactly the same as logging out. The person gets away with 0 chance of death. So it's an exploit?

This is a legitimate tactic, if you can't kill them before they hibernate nobody to blame but yourself, I would highly suggest keep this implemented in the game.

The OP is crazy lucky. I could never just bang my face on a keyboard and come up with whole words, much less grammatically correct sentences. Yet this person seems to do it on every post. Remarkable.

It's just a guy TPing himself. A lot of players have two accounts and like to have an Emp on one and a Blaster on the other. That's totally legitimate game-play in my book.
They should make it work like phase shift, where if an opponent logs out, then you can log out, and beat their *** on the login screen.

Aliona did you try sending him a message telling him he was a noob?
if that didn't work did you try calling him a noob in broadcast?
if neither of those work, well I'm fresh out of ideas.

So one way of escaping a bad situation without using an exploit is okay, but another way of escaping the same situation without using an exploit is not okay? I like these arbitrary rules you're setting up here. |
Yes, the double account to escape a bad situation is legit.
Using HiberQuit to leave the game and get a fresh 20 second countdown with unrestricted movement to escape your **** beating is an exploit.

Because getting teleported back to your base and staying there for 20 seconds before coming back out is any different at all? You know, it's funny - this wouldn't even be an issue if travel suppression and heal decay didn't exist.|

The other day Hot Heals Hyber quit. That is the one and only time I have ever noticed anyone do that. Pretty sure this doesn't happen enough to really warrant all this crying. Either way though its a legal tactic and not an exploit. Get over it.

Hibernate & Phase have always been staple tools used by high end PVPers.
If someone is complaining about hibernate/phase then they are 100% likely to be a noob.
Whats funnier then hiberquit is the kids that go out and buy the temp phase to click out of hiber... Try hards. Ban sturdies, they ruin droning. Also I think if you hiber next to someone you should be able to attack them since itd be like 1 block of ice. And I really like the idea of fighting it out on the log in screen, this has true potential.

This game is FULL of real game-breaking bugs, all of which are ignored for years. This issue is simply meaningless compared to some of the other bugs we have. Learn to deal with it.
Just accepting something flawed, dealing with it and not doing anything about it is not acceptable to me and many other players. We are a community of gamers not a bunch of exploiters.
Many bugs/exploits are fixed years later. Maybe hiberquitting will be fixed soon enough.
