Title: Map Exploit?
Post by: Snokio on October 06, 2009, 10:14:05 PM
Seen a couple of players now using what could be a map glitch or map exploit, looking for clarity on whether we allow this or if we should prevent it as there has been different opinions on this:
 

 
It's on Ambush, I have marked in red where they are getting into the middle buildings, and marked in Blue where they can access.
 
Thanks

And also here, I saw Todd climbing up on the left side of the fence (looking towards A, the west side on the map).
I thought it looked odd, and tried to do the same, it was impossible. He didnt use the tanker on the right side of the fence which I know people use, and it looked like he was climbing an invisible ladder.
Would be nice to know whats allowed and not, so we can do the right admining and guiding.

Any chance of posting a slightly larger image as it's a bit hard to see what's what.... what?

A simple running jump will get you up on the buildings, I guess it's just a matter of jumping to get into the other one.
I go up there some times to cover C and B and the sniper room and other roofs.
I must say I have seen Todd in some funny places though, but I know for sure the one Snokio mentioned is a doosie to get to. I'll show you next time if you remind me.
I don't know of any "Glitches" in standard CoD4 maps, they seem pretty good in that respect.

I have seen people get in to all sort of strange places. I am rubbish at jumping so for me to find these place would take longer the game would last. If people kill you from a strange place hunt them down next time your alive.
 
I don't think it's anything to worry about

In most cases I agree apart from when you have some on in the middle glitch on the C side of the map Spawn Raping away, hell it got so bad last time that O1rgin got up and left.

But that was domination.

my 2 cents

peersonally i have be known to find the odd place or two, to snipe from
and as arm said, your normally found out fairly soon and shot down.

tbh i can't see there being a problem aslong as people don't spawn rape

:2cents:

Looks like there are various methods to get to certain places, maybe if someone can record a demo to show how they get to these certain places we might have a clearer perspective?

Some of those are new to me, but the one @ 3.30 is the jump I was referring to.
As I said, they are just simple jumps, and the fact that ladders or bins are available to help get you out, suggests that the mappers intended these places to be accessible. Therefore they are not glitches but legitimate git spots.

Blunt stole my thunder there. Some nice spots if you have the skill to get there.
