    Does everyone see that heavy there? That is not suppose to happen. He used a known geometry glitch to get up on top of the roof. I messaged him about it being a exploit and all he did was laugh. Lets get this thing fixed, and maybe even this guy banned (since he laughed at me reporting him you know teach him a lesson).

    is this a troll post?
    knowing how to get on the rooves isn't an exploit in any way lol
    you can do it with a max if you practice.

    I'm not saying knowing how to get on top of buildings is an exploit, but in this case you have to exploit a collision glitch in the geometery at the bottom of that pile of rocks on the right side of the screen its a very old bug that no one has taken the time to get rid of.

    There are way more locations in the game where you can wall jump. Most single point buildings can be wall jumped to get onto the balcony. You can also jump along the legs of the large towers to get onto the second level without going through the vehicle shields. Those are just a few of the many locations. Even Wrel made a video about and it will not get you banned or suspended for doing it.

    Ok well it actually showed him doing it I thought it was more of a wall climbing thing that was more of an actual exploit, but it still feels like its bologna as far as doing it inside a biolab.

    we all know how to climb that roof but a glitch would explain all the max units on that roof today
    i even checked the building cause i thought with the new upgrade they put a stairway to the top somewhere

    These players should be given an entire server where they can wall jump and play around all they want. No guns, no exp, in the form of a punishment where they can piss themselves out of boredom.

    It is an exploit if you are a class that is not Light Assault. If it were not an exploit, there would be stairs for every class to go up there. But there isn't, so they aren't supposed to be up there. And if I see a teammate doing this, I will gladly kill them :)

    The rocks are not solid solely for the benefit of Light Assaults. The roofs are not solid solely for the benefit of Light Assaults.

    You are so wrong it hurts. I don't expect this to change. But I'll do whatever it takes to remove it from my screen whether it's a friend or a foe.



    Here's what I want you to do. Go to wikipedia and search up 'Video Game Exploits'. Then scroll down to where it says "Geometry" and read.

    The wall jumping ..."mechanic" is well known and can be done at thousands of places on each map. The devs have not said or done anything that would seem to imply that they don't want it there.
    For now, we can only assume that it's as much part of the game as the Reverse Maneuver, or Arcing jump pads with a light assault.

    Unlike, say, getting a sundy on the second floor of a tech plant, where the devs have spent several patches adding more and more obstacles in the way to prevent it from being done, clearly showing their desire to remove it from the game.

    If you guys didn't know about this, you obviously haven't played Elder Scrolls Skyrim and tried hopping up the side of a mountain because you were too lazy to look for the road around
  14. Reemerge

    The only kinds of players who would think to exploit wall jumping are the ones who would think to exploit many other things to gain leverage in battle over other players, which is unfair. Hence why you get stuff like sundy placements on the second floor of the tech plant. They are literal cancer and ruin the fun for everyone. On the other hand, it's because of them that we're able to point them out. The problem is that it really does depend on how the community responds to them for the devs to actually do anything about it. So now and then you'll get people in forums trying to argue that it's not an exploit because they will do everything in their power to defend it, of course.

    Is that not what this thread was intended to determine, even if it were just a subset of the population?

    Such whining is one of the reasons PS2 died.
    Uknow that unintutive, newbie unfriendly but extremely fun and pretty hardcore game some of us used to play in 2012-2013.
    Your mentality restricts you to learn tricks instead of yelling about hax. I still didn't leave PS2 just beacuse its sandbox-like appearance and ability to push some limits and make "impossible" (but just unobvious) things.

    No one said anything about hacks.
  18. Liewec123

    and what i want YOU to do is watch that video and tell me what the exploiting is? the walking or the jumping...
    exploits are things like the old bug where at a certain range spawn shields wouldn't render and you could shoot people in the spawn room.
    or bugging your way under the map so you can shoot people through the floor. (same thing applies to walls)

    using your brain to walk and jump to a vantage point is not a damn exploit.

    Doesn't actually matters. OP sees this as bug exploiting while those who really enjoy PS2 know it's just an option given by its physics and noted as a right thing even by devs.

    I would love it if the ATV got replaced with Skyrim's all-terrain-horse, those horses can climb up anything.
