View Full Version : [Exploit] 'Special' game modes in midwar through console

When creating a public midwar game a couple options are disabled such as number of players, nostats, all game modes except all pick, drop item on death and the list goes on and on.
Well, I was messing around with the console and found out that (for example) I am able to create a hardcore all random midwar (people are able to join them).

Now this is not a real problem, but the thing is, you can actually create a midwar with certain game modes that will/can cause a lot of trouble.

When you start one of these 'special' midwars it will first force "Blind Ban" after that it will force the selected game mode, which can result in A LOT more bans.
People can end up with no possible hero to select. The game will load but all you see is a black screen with some UI. This in turn can lead to disconnects and leavers because all people can do is watch a black screen.

I saved the console command and I will send it to a moderator/s2-staff-member if needed though I'm guessing you guys can easily write a similar command. I wont post the command here because other people might cause the earlier mentioned problems.

I'm guessing there is no fix for this since it's a console thing, but just wanted to let you guys know about this.
