Amount of bots left to destroy increases?

Jul 28, 2006 J15BIG link
I accepted the "Killing Spree" mission which stated I needed to kill 5 bots. The first thing that I thought was werid was when I typed "m" to try and get the little mission help menu, nothing popped up. The other thing I found was, after I killed the first bot, my mission computer said 4 bots remaining, then when I killed the next bot, it said 5 bots remaining. It got up to 7 bot remaining before I quit and posted this message.

Yep, It always has done. Search for "spree" on the forum and have a smile at all the new players (including myself ) who have spotted this bug . I actually think that the devs have left it like that to see who can count ......

Welcome to VO....

That works as a humorous explanation, Ecka, but I think the reason it's there is that it got migrated from the test server with a few other missions back when the first-gen mission editor (the one that we got to see a screenshot of) was being used.

I think the counter for the mission editor didn't work right or maybe the guide who put it together switched a few values around by accident.

Seriously, I thought Ray said he fixed that.

Haha. That mission is like a running joke.

No, this is a running joke.
