Dark Age of Camelot: bye-bye Bounty Point Deeds (for now)

For fear of having Dark Alex *ahem* Dark Age of Camelot fully exploited by hackers, Housing Deeds available for purchase with Bounty Points have been temporarily removed. Unfortunately, specific details about the hack weren’t given by Mythic Entertainment‘s Missy Hatch, who made the announcement today. We are, however, treated to some form of vague description of what happened:

Bounty Points are intended as an alternative method to obtain some items and services in game, but are not designed as a method to obtain currency. Some players figured out a way to abuse the housing system in order to obtain gold via bounty points.

Safe to say, they are currently on the move to squash this threat. From what we could gather, they’re fixing the problem with the Housing Upgrade process and that once it’s done, Housing Deeds will be made available for purchase again by Bounty Points.
