Event farming

Is any thing being done about people event farming by partying with multiple devices? This is really unfair to many players

How is it unfair?

that just your hypothesis i guess

They just all log into one match with 4 devices and then have 3 devices not doing anything so it’s #1 place every single time. No competition.

so that is your hypothesis,first where did he get the energy for other acc?buy unlikely,multitasking all char to farm energy at once also unlikely,sec even if u in pt other ppl still able to join the game pt wont make any different.

how? it's already energy-based event

its energy based so it doesnt matter .
if it wasnt energy based partying shouldnt be allowed

but level 1 can pt too, if i make this $#!+ just use 3 dummy account after done 3 free energy delete then make again and so on, only your main can do farm energy or use energy kit easy lb if you play in pc or laptop :)

but its nice if party system is useless that anyone can still join.

I know ppl who have hundreds of alts/accts, so yeah use the free energy on each to party can be exploited.

But that’s the thing party system isn’t useless. If all 4 devices press enter at the same time, they will all enter into the same instance most likely and no competition basically one person competing against themselves

Might as well allow ghost party in event if this is ok lol

With all due respect I believe the OP concern is overstated. Racing events don't honor parties in the way that standard combat events do. Specifically: there are no reservations in the event zone for your party members. So while it's theoretically possible for all your miserable cheating robot alts to press 'join' at the exact same server frame and wind up in the same instance there is always the risk of other players entering at the same moment to break up your fake group.

On another topic: I am dubious of the 'free energy alt' theory going around. I'm dubious because I would expect to see a lot of new throwaway accounts... and I'm not seeing that. We log the number of new accounts every day. During popular events the number of new accounts tends to drop below average because the vast majority of engaged players are busy with the event. One day into Watercraft Rally and we're seeing high participation from existing players and low numbers of new accounts.

Thanks for the constructive criticism. I do hope that you enjoy this event! :-)

ah I see, so on those 3 alt accs each time they use all those 3 (three) free energies of those characters they make another one so the newly made character will have another 3 free energies to use and they repeat the process!

Let's keep it that way then I didn't think of that!

ha, you'll notice 4 accounts from my ip were made recently then.. :p though they're just to open ctf for the apostle guild bank.. all stats 11. XD

i had to wait a day or so to make the 4th.. the verification does quite a good job.
