Can we expect the NEAF glitch spot to be fixed any time soon?

[infiltrator 275]

It's really annoying. I like to kill people in the NEAF but don't use the glitch spot. The spot is very bad for two reasons:

 

1 Allows you to have an outlook on the tower, hangar you're in, and the jail close to the tower.

2.It's really easy to attack/surprise people from it, if they enter the hangar they're pretty much dead unless you screw up with your aim badly.

3.It's hard to attack someone in the glitch spot, and virtually impossible to sneak up on them from behind (they have vision of you, while you don't have any of them).

 

I don't think it's too much to ask for the piece of land behind the hangar to be lifted a bit.. all that's needed.. Just now I saw a guy loot the ATC and then head straight in it. Of course, if I wanted to get him from behind, I risk being spotted and shot as soon as I go prone.

My guess would be no. They have FAR more pressing things to fix than exploitable glitches that make an entire area of the map overly dangerous to go to.

 

I mean come on, it's probably going to take HOURS and HOURS of coding to make it so you cant roll underneath a solid object.

 

My guess is it will be fixed in 5 months

Even though I don't really understand what you were trying to say I will go with that it needs to be fixed. Have you opened a report yet:

I sense the sarcasm here. Or at least I hope I do!

The glitch is only there because they dropped a hanger onto the mapmaker on slightly uneven ground. Simple fix. Same as that "mini pyramid". Someone just forgot to click an extra go :-D

Thanks for the pick up :D

 

I just thought it was funny it took them this long to do it lol

[infiltrator 275]

Obviously sarcastic yeah.. and this is really easy to fix.. just grab one of the ground poly vertices and move it up a bit on the z axis.. there.. done.. you're welcome guys.

Indeed!

Got to double check sometimes on the interweb! There needs to be a universal sarcastic font... I say this, as more than half the people on these very forums use their forehead to bash random keys while entering dribble. This is sign they lack the basic understanding of sarcasm.. just checking you're not one of them. <3 lol.

No offence forum pals  ;)   :P

Am I guilty of using said glitch spot?(I have only been to NEAF 4 times now...)

 

Yes.

 

When I found/used said glitch spot, I was kind of proud of myself as I had found a bug(without any previous knowledge of it.)

When I was in and using the spot did I kill people in the hangar, tower or anywhere else on the airfield?

 

Yes, well but not in a negative way. I was just surprised I found it and so I just laid there as I watched some TV, I was honestly just bored and was curious what the traffic was like at the airfield.

 

I was there for about 3 hours.... just laying there watching. In those 3 hours, I ran into 11 people. 2 of those players were server hoppers that looted the east jail and watchtower, I left them be, as I wasn't looking for action, just watching the traffic flow :D 3 were players that legitimately ran to the AF, looted every building and went on their way...

 

but the other 6... oh you dirty bastards, you...

 

the other six all spawned at the glitch and attempted to get in it immediately... each of them, fully geared.... M4s and more ammo than a single server spawns... Lets just say, within a few seconds of them spawning, I gave them each a few extra bullets to hold onto :rolleyes:

 

Needles to say, during my "Bird watching" I was able to spare the 3 legit players lives, as they would have been filled with lead if I hadn't been there fighting off the Bandits :D

 

Heros: 6    Bandits: 0

 

 

 

Edit: I made my way from novy sabor to the NEAF... The server had about 15 people on when I joined... by the time I ran into the glitch... the server had fully populated...

Edit: Edit: It is horrifying when someone literally "walks over you" but doesn't even know your there.... really gets the blood pumping....

I don't think it would take that long.The problem is the ground isn't level at that spot. All they need to do is level the ground in that one spot, put the ****** back in its proper worldspace and its fixed ready to deploy.
