exploit or bug

[MadGelo]

iv just watch a player on apartments map could see past some objects.

He was on axis side, standing on 2nd floor, as you know most of the windows that are facing russian spawn are blocked, well the guy was shooting past the one with curtains like they wasnt even there


and since he had 3x more kills than anyone on the server, im sure the curtains wasnt the only thing he could see past....and he was using bolt rifle



was a PB server aswell

Not a bug or an exploit. There is a gap between the curtain and the window that it is possible to see through. They just don't get a great line of sight.
If lots of Russians are attacking East Bridgehead from the riverbed on the Russians right hand side they can get some pretty clear shots off. And if kill direction thing is off, they are very well hidden.

yeh i think i am seeing quite a bit of dogy stuff going on.

Try and make sure the PB server is red not green or yellow at the very least.

I dont know why but the majority avoid the PB red servers i have found.

xd, no he was shooting like there was clear view, moving around and shooting from every angle

what does the color mean?

Maybe there is clipping issues with the curtains then? I usually only play Russians on Apartments so I have never practised shooting from there really. I have noticed there are lots of ways to easily clip through objects so you can see through them. Perhaps he was doing that then I guess? Doubt TWI will really be able to fix something like that though, some clipping issues will always remain.

Hold your mouse over the icon in the server browser and a legend window will open explaining the various icons.

The game is absolutely riddled with people using cheats so it's hard to say.
Keep changing servers until you find a cheat free one for the best game.

It's a clipping issue. I've sent messages to devs about it, with no response. You just press up to the window, zoom and lean, and 9 times out of 10, you can clip through and have a clear field of fire, without being visible to the enemy. It was present in the beta - a fella was destroying our team with it, so I switched sides and had a look at what he was doing, tried it out myself. Very very cheap.

i guess you didnt read whole thread

if you change your settings to low or lowest there wont be hanging blankets over those windows !!!! so the german player could use that to his advantage and that is relly lame.
hope they will add a competativ mode there you must play with certain settings oherwise you cant join.
the problem is that there is alot of these "items" that you can see thru on alot of the maps and its crazy

Thanks for the advice. I will be joining only PB red servers in future, I am so sick of joining servers where most of the players are cheating and there really is no point in playing.

This is really not good if so. If you are making a MP game, you can't have differing views for differing settings- either everything can't be seen through, or it is. Obviously jerks are going to exploit everything they can (and be rewarded- thank you "stats"!), but these especially glaring things need to be fixed and soon if people are to be ensured that they aren't operating at a disadvantage by having higher graphic settings.

The Apartments have so many people camping through the cracks and tiny holes it's unreal. The wall spam in this game rivals COD for sure and the sprayers and prayers are as good as any I've seen anywhere. Camp out off the cap zone seems to sum this game up in general . I KNOW IT'S ALL ABOUT TEAMWORK but I guess this game is made up of about 99% COD players or that seems to be the excuse of most here.

Well, that just isn't true.. Before they optimised the game more, I had to play with everything on lowest to play at a decent fps and the curtains were always there.
Thank god the optimisations mean I can play on medium now though, lowest textures look like someone sicked all over the walls.
