Description

Description:
There is a severe progression exploit in Conflict mode involving the HQ Commander role and the Recon task system. A player acting as the Commander can continuously generate and instantly complete custom Recon tasks for a friendly squad on an infinite loop.

Because these missions can be completed rapidly with zero tactical risk, engagement, or movement, players are systematically abusing this mechanic to farm massive amounts of XP. This breaks the intended match balance, allowing players to skip the tactical progression meant to gate powerful end-game assets like heavy armor, command trucks, and helicopter spawns.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Join an official Conflict match with two players coordinating together.

  2. Player A interacts with the HQ tent and takes the Commander role.

  3. Player B joins or leads a separate squad.

  4. Player A (Commander) generates a Recon task specifically targeted at Player B’s squad.

  5. The squad completes the parameters of the task instantly or within seconds.

  6. Player A immediately generates another Recon task for the same squad.

  7. Repeat this cycle continuously to artificially inflate XP and Ranks.

Expected Result:
Recon tasks should feature a strict global or squad-based cooldown timer, heavily diminished XP returns for consecutive completions, or require a physical, verifiable objective check before awarding progression points.


Expected Result / Proposed Fix:

Implement a strict, global or squad-specific cooldown timer (e.g., 5 to 10 minutes) for generating and completing Recon tasks. Alternatively, introduce heavily diminished XP returns for consecutive completions, or require a physical, verifiable objective check before awarding progression points. A simple timer restriction would completely eliminate the viability of the automated spam loop.


Actual Result:
The task loop can be spammed indefinitely, resulting in broken rank progression and unearned access to high-tier command assets.
