Glitch on Office, fyi.

[mrtwit]

Thought I'd post this as i couldn't add to the locked thread, but thought you guys should know.

On Office, after the security doors are opened, it's possible to get past the two sentries at the back door (the one that leads into the hallway connecting to the defenders spawn), without destroying them. Just crouch and you can slip off the stairs out of harms way.

Maybe add it to the list?

[Sgt.Muffin]

Already aware of that, but you still can't camp the exact spot where they drop down due to a sentinel right there.

[mrtwit]

That isn't the point though. It's possible to get into the room without them being notified a sentinel has been destroyed. I mean, maybe not everyone uses it, but when i see one is destroyed i check all the other entrances as well. I have to admit, I'm guilty of using it, and when I've used it, i could easily take out a good few of the defenders and plant at least one bomb.

Ok, completely different turrets than what I thought you were describing. It will be addressed.

A glitch in office
You can drive this vehicle SPFA. To their spawned point it should not be allowed.
I'm not sure if there was a post about it. But in office they can do this. And they are doing this. It is against rules to do this to shoot anybody that is spawneding at a spawned point. This is in the last part of the map.

i thought the only rule for spawn killing was NO "superweapons" and a spma is hardly a superweapon. Cant find the original post, but more or less everyone if i remember right (mods and staff im talking about here) said its allowed more or less. Besides you get what 5seconds spawn protection? use it as Z would say

EDIT

even muffin himself says its not a glitch

I have to agree with help on this one 125man. As far as I know, only super weapons like ion tanks and Levi's can't spawn kill, I mean if it wasn't meant to happen, muffin wouldn't let it. Besides, all you need is someone in the tank to stop the spma'r from getting many kills. Also, it is very easy to destroy the spma because of sentinal damage. On the sential bug, it is a small bug but I doubt it deservers real worry. All you gotta do is post a back door gaurd and the element of surprise is lost.

P.S Muffin is waiting with the levi allowed in Comand and mario or not?

But also they try to steal the tank from the attacking team.

[ineedhelp}N{]

isnt that more strategy than glitching? Personally if you can drive the SPMA to their spawn and steal their vehicles i say why not go for it

Its the same as one of the CnC maps where you can steal their vehicles so long as they were in it at one stage....for example their tank sitting that was being used someone got out of it and i run up and steal it, if you cant do it on office because your taking a 'tank' that belongs to them then really any other map that you can do it on shouldnt be allowed also. But its more stupidity than anything to just dump a vehicle like that for no reason.

But as for office they dont have to use the vehicle before an attacker can steal it. You can also go outside some parts of the building and snipe them at their spawn, i do that all the time some have said i must be glitching it, but nope i use my head and go to a spot where the sentinel cant get me but i can get you. Glitching to me is something that you have to be set out to do not something that can be done so easily anyone could do it. Besides most people ive seen try to do the SPMA trick cant for some reason

[Loken]

I do agree that it is a more of a strategy and not a glitch; however the attackers hate it. If I were defending, I'd rather face defeat than win by upsetting a whole team.

[ineedhelp}N{]

if they cant take upset they should find a new game IMO, gaming is intended for fun too many people forget that. Until its either "fixed" or filak or muffin say otherwise ill continue to do it as im not breaking any rules and spawn killing (except with superweapons) is allowed

[Sgt.Muffin]

I've always been meaning to test out the session ban volume in unreal editor, when a specific team enters the volume it will session ban them. Maybe we should just do that to rain on everyone's parade (no pun on SPMA intended)

I could also just vehicle lock it, but by now you would think I would have done it if I thought it was a problem... Hmm...

[phantomvirus]

Well muffin, we all believe in you, do what you deem necessary. In my opinion, the SPMA thing is not a big deal, I aggree with Loken and Help, that it is a stratagy and its not a against the rules or glitching. But that is just my opinion, and that is that I like office the way it is

one thing i have noticed from time to time with office but i think its a lag issue on the server or that (cause it just seems to be when everyone is lagging on the server and shortly after it gets restarted) well anyways is that the ION Cannon isnt able to be used. You can sometimes get into it but it wont fire and sometimes you cant get into it at all for a few minutes. Its always strange when it happens but as i said just seems to be when the server has some what of a lag

Well i'm not sure on how everything is set up as far as rules wise on office with the SPMA.
