what is duping?

Recommended Posts

aww come on harry its like magic (I apologize for finding so much humor in this by the way). duping is short for duplicating. its a bad thing to do (like necromancy) so don't do it. I wont go into particulars however.

Problem is the game does it by itself from time to time :(

The game doesn't force you to take and use said items though does it.  ;)

Technically, necromancy isn't a bad thing - it's traditional meaning is to do with talking to the dead for purposes of divination. It's only fairly recently (maybe last 100-150 odd years or so) that the association with actually raising corpses, particularly to form armies of undead, has developed - mainly due to lots of really bad novels.

However, if you want to read a good novel about a necromancer take a look at the excellent Johannes Cabal series of books.

On topic, incoming lock?

Didn't the devs say a few months(?) duping has been removed? Is it still possible? Why do they say it has been removed when it's still possible? Is it that hard to remove?

They did a character wipe and fixed a few of the known duplication methods I think. I've personally not seen people with unlimited ammo clips for a long time. The devs have done things that slow dupers down, like stopping putting high cap vests inside vests etc. I've killed people with crazy inception vests before.. a vest within a vest within a vest within a vest.

 

Just been reading a thread on this but don't really understand what it is?

 

It's where people duplicate an item through a hack, or through actions in game. Either way it's against the rules and the spirit of the game.

Ah ok. To get lots of ammo etc? I used to server hop to do this until I realised it didn't make me any better at the game.. I could have 100 rounds for an sks and still get killed by one shot by a reslly good player I didn't even see! I've realised having situational awareness is better than having a million rounds

Hello there

 

Duping is naughty and for Slitherin types only.

 

Dont do it.

 

As this thread is about a verboten subject I shall now close.
