    Maybe with the new update the system has recognized you as a seal clubber. Do you have the screenshot?

    Same thing happening to me...if I have done something wrong, wouldn't it make sense for the developers to explain what is going on? If I've done something wrong, it has been unintentional...but how can one know they HAVE done something wrong without someone/something explaining it to them.

    Anyone who has intentionally lost significant amounts of infamy will not receive battle rewards until they climb back to close to their max infamy they've reached.

    I lost my infamy working on quests, checking out new and much less upgraded weapons, practicing aiming. I didn't drop my infamy on purpose. I was experimenting and playing around with the game. This really sucks because I'm not going to experiment as much or try things for a while if I am going to be penalized like this. Frankly I upset about this and thinking about canceling my VIP subscription too if this stays like this. This is not a good idea. I am not sure I want to switch boats now because my infamy will plummet and I get punished for doing so.

    I think this can work against players too. I get on a hot streak once in a while and my infamy seems to levitate and then I crash back down. If I have to game this system I'm going to try to avoid those epic runs of good luck if i am only going to get slammed when I drop back down. Those terrific runs of good luck are a curse.

    Does this make sense to anyone?

    I like seals. I would never club one. lol
    I assume a seal clubber is someone that intentionally drops infamy. Ya?

    Yes, for the new update it would be odd to be and MK4 at 659 infamy, the tanking strategy was addressed and now it do not give rewards if it detects you are not in the infamy range you should be.
    So, just keep battling and gaining infamy, until you get back to your highest one.
    Cheers!

    Wtf... when I was at 700 infamy I was mk 2, and so was everyone around me... the occasionaly mk3.

    Shows how bad this clubbing situation has got... I'm now often the only Mk3 up against mk4s in 1200 infamy level.

    That is what happened to me and ran down my infamy and then I kept losing for a while and was really down. Not intentionally (wasn't trying to be a seal-clubber) but was really low. I'm finally turned it around and working my way back up but with four other mates you have little control and its a slow fight back up, three steps forward, two steps back.

    So. After stewing and thinking about this I see the value in the anti seal-clubbing. I know i was a victim of it too. I would get into a battle and would take several hits and would be dead really really quickly. I was annoyed but I love how this game lets me jump right back into another fight and I was just ignoring those ugly battles and considered it part of the game.

    I had never considered dropping infamy to improve my rewards. No matter the battle, I have four other mates depending on me to do my best and I play the game like that.

    Hi Radar, we have this new system in place for the reasons stated above, it is unfortunate you got affected and we are still optimising this. We only now had a day of data to see how it affects players.

    Improvements are constantly made to ensure that players who experiment or have a bad streak don't get affected. It is not a perfect system unfortunately and never will be, but we try to get as close to it as possible.

    We never want to hurt our player who play fair a square. It is a hard line to walk and we are glad if you understand and are patient with us to make sure we can give you the best experience.
