Goblin hut in a player village

[facescraper]

The guy had 4 lvl 5 army camps, and three of these goblin huts. His TOTAL troop capacity was 240, meaning 180 in the camps and 20 in each of these huts. Here is a screenshot of the base:

oh ok so an extra 60 troops. he should have hidden it better, ♥♥♥♥.

oh, i saw the base. i also saw what was, at one time, in the right most hut. 3 healers, 20 giants, and more than 10 archers. I looked before the original thread was started. I heard about it in my clan. who knows who they heard it from, but i don't care.

i really don't give a rip who believes me. I am just reporting what I saw.

i saw a ufo floating above one of the huts with what looks like a pekka flying it. i didn't think to grab a screenshot though.

Really? You are really going to float that ♥♥, as a software company. Yes, yes, you can say you have never been 'hacked', because Webster says so... As you ARE representing the company, you do it a great dis-service by going that route, in the eyes of all of the software developers that play this game, and have given SC money. Yes, I know, the great many people out there don't really know what a hacker is, due to the media jumping all over the word, but if you are going to use the jargon of a given set of people (the originators of the term, not what Webster thinks the term should be, or what a script kiddie thinks they are) then please use it correctly as well. But, you have to actually have been around, and involved in computers back then to really get it. Not your fault that you were born too late... (just a guess)

Were your servers compromised, by en external entity? Probably not. Was someone using a KNOWN, MONTHS OLD, exploit, to circumvent your code to a nefarious end? Most Certainly. The fact that the players that encountered this particular bug had to tell you, so you could fix it, absolutely blows my mind, and is just SC being lazy about bugs. So, you can't just do 'Select player_name from some_db where some_table = TID_GOBLIN_HUT and is_multiplayer = yes'. You are going down a very slippery slope with that logic. One that you may want to re-evaluate.

This is a known exploit, and now it is very known. I wonder how many people are actively trying to reverse engineer your statements, as to how this happens, and the fact that you have no visibility into it happening in the first place.

not all of your players are 14 (I would bet that most of your active player base is well over 25), some of us are even software developers. You might want to take that into consideration when future exploits are brought to your attention.

Yes, I would rather SuperCell have locked the thread, fixed the PROBLEM and not just the player, stated that it was an exploit, was rare, and will never happen again, and move on. Lot's of people are now playing single player games, to see what else can be exploited....

I may be wrong but the nice Statue they showed was in the office, it was put on Facebook.

Why don't you just close this thread? There is no more reasons for you to give people explanations. The issue has been addressed and taken care of. If people want to complain about the developers being lazy to fix bugs than they can just quit playing this game. And like you told the other dude, if they think they are better at doing SuperCells work than they should create there own game and see if they have any luck with that.

Rauta/Twister & Sneaky.. I think this thread can be wrapped up. Close it asap

yeap, there are some pictures... haven't check FB yet... but I was looking for: small items they have created like barbarian plastic "dolls" to play with... or any shirt's with colorful designs of CoC (saw they have the black supercell one)

I found this player with a Goblin Hut, not sure how he managed this?
