Bayo dive: Exploit or intensional?

[Luther]

I am just asking is the bayo dive a exploit or did the creators know about this before the release? For those who are not to sure what I am talking about, it is when you pull you rifle in getting ready for a stab, then diving to the ground releasing your hold on the bayo. I would't mind it but if I am being told I am using a exploit I want to be sure that it is before I stop my bayo diving antics.

Regards Luther

Even if it isn

 

[myzko]

It's very evul.

I don't see what's wrong with it. I'm sure people "bayo-dived" in World War II; besides, it isn't particularly effective in-game.

 

[PUTZ]

This is a known issue, but there are much larger things being looked into. Since it isn't really an exploit.

Bayonets have bigger problems: it is very hard to judge when you will get a kill. In the mod days this was much better, a bayonet thrust would get a kill.

Now, people dance around stabbing mindlessly, IT IS STUPID. Many times I sneak up on people, try to bayo kill them, but I somehow miss and then get killed. How hard it is to hit a stationary enemy with the bayonet?

 

[SiC-Disaster]

i never miss a stationary target.. never.. only circlestraving ones i hit them in the arm occasionally

For those who don't play on the Australian servers , Luther is the man for bayo kills. I have been wondering about his technique for awhile now , thanx for the heads up Luther ,see you on the battlefield

But if you miss, you're screwed.

 

[ZBrisk]

It all depends on ping.

It's a daunting task for me to stab a moving target with >150 ping. But otherwise, fear meh!

by the way, real practice shows that if one runs for u with his bayo, holding the alternate fire, and u're firing with your SMG, the person is almost invulnerable! U shoot all the ammo into his corpse, but he doesn't even stop, killing you. At the same server, at the same situation, I've noticed this fact twice: if one holds Altfire (bayo), he's not dying. If not - always dead.
Believe me, I can't miss, I'm 1st at http://www.roscores.com today

 

[EvilHobo]

Um, if you're shooting in to his corpse, that would imply that he is dead.
Seriously, killing someone who's doing a bayo charge is incredibly easy. Holding the alt fire button offers no advantage.

 

[Crim]

Honestly, what the hell? I haven't noticed any alt-fire invulnerability bug, and I bayonet like crazy.

The only time I can pull off something like that is when the submachinegunner misses.

Maybe you're not as good as you think you are.

Edit for thread content: I don't think the bayo dive is intentional, but neither is it a horrible exploit. Besides, it's not like it is out of the realm of possibility for actually happening in real life. It's just diving to the ground when you're holding a stick with a sharp thing at the end. Perfectly possible.

edit number two: I really hope people don't start saying they're good because of that stat tracker. From what I saw in roughly five seconds of looking, it doesn't have anything whatsoever to do with real skill. Just points. Kill/death ratio doesn't matter in the least, it would appear, and that is more a sign of skill than anything else.

 

[KrazyKraut]

I'm sure people "bayo-dived" in World War II

And I VERY MUCH doubt that, because it's very stupid.


But it isn't particularly effective, only looks stupid.

 

[Sclass12]

If it's stupid and it works, it isn't stupid.

 

[Bat Guano]

If it's stupid and it works, it isn't stupid.

Is that one of "Murphy's Laws?" If not, it should be.

 

[ZBrisk]

I'm just glad someone made this thread. Now I use this "exploit" and it works quite well against prone enemies :-D

 

[[5.SS] Hirner]

Here is a tip. Only bayo when u wanna keep quiet. Unless u like jacking around like me. Even though it makes noise... people dont notice. But everything else if uve flanked somebody... shooot his brains out.

 

[Tak]

Wha, wha. Someone is putting one plus one together and beating me with their two! Wha!


Find a server where playing the game won't get you accused of cheating mate. LOL. Keep on' pokin!
