The weapon spotting exp glitch?? Fixed yet?

[BlockishElk]

My main complaint is that, I keep playing with people who are obviously not deserving of their ranks. I looked up if there was a way people are getting a lot of experience. And behold, there is. People are using turbo controllers in horde to spot weapons and pick up weapons for hours on end and are getting exp for it. From what I've been looking into, they used to do this with the 5 fortification ribbons but it was patched to where you can only get it once a round now. So, is the weapon spotting one patched yet? or will they patch it? As a person who is going to get every achievement as "legit" as possible, I find it frustrating that people are just glitching their way to lvl 100. While I'm playing online in between rounds of horde and private matches for my onyx medals and my slow but steady level increase.

any thoughts on this?

If you mean recon ribbon boosting, no. It's still out there. And so is Reaver boosting. Who cares if they have a higher rank than you? Who cares if there a Blue 89 and suck terribly?

It's their choice to boost. It's not interfering with other online player's gameplay.

Face the facts, if they suck terribly and have a very high rank, its just easier on your end.

It's an exploit, not a glitch. Js

yeah very good points. I guess it is more of a choice of challenge. I like the challenge when it comes to leveling up. Onyx medals are obviously a different story. I'm not going to sit here and say I haven't let my xbox run all day to bump up my execution matches played and stuff, but I atleast had to sacrifice my K/D ratio and my W/L ratio for it. But still, I think someone who is willing to spend money to buy a controller that will let them do something like that, just needs to have that option taken away from them.

Coming from someone who joined this month made me "lol" Im not calling you a lier or anything just found it funny xD


But on topic, you can always tell who boosted their ranks cause if they are that high they are either

A- Very good rocks your world and rushes out to 30 to 40 kills in king or ctl

or

B- Bad to average at best but in the blue levels it looks really bad on them even if they are going + by only a small margin.

Some guy wasn't on my case about having so many points and only being a red. He said I'd modded my game. He doesn't realize re-ups weren't immediately after the game released
