Just a little weird to me.

BTW this was with a server running .56 if that makes a different..

it take the game i little bit to post new exp to top scores if you look at the I menu in the game and see it there then you got it


Everytime I have SD'd a player my exp and alignment have been updated right away. Besides that, my alignment was updated right away and my exp was increased, just not as high as it should be..

--OutKast

I'm not sure what the issue was with the experience. Assuming you didn't die or bust before you checked, looks like a bug of some sort. How high was the experience of the player you killed? As to the cash, it is lost about 25% of the time when you pod someone, this is a game design, not a bug. He loses it, but you don't gain it.

His exp was 158,457 ... Didn't know that about the cash, good to know...

The exp thing is a bug, thanks for bringing it to my attention. Apparently it's existed for a while, is in .55 as well as .56
