2.1/11 map exploits

[el'PiX]

I feel the need for this board, or there will be fifty people complaining about map exploits,
even after the release of 2.5.

Add to the wiki list, discuss things in this thread.

Thank you

There is an exploit involving the turned over bus in West London but I am not sure how it works.

i think you can shotgun jump onto it, or a lowered corner, i've seen people on it, near the church

i've heard that shotgun jumping is removed for 2.5 (unless it's not ) which would nullify most exploits. not that pathing related ones though -_-

With KF-Offices, fleshpounds get stuck and block a spawn. Throwing grenades down the lift shaft clears them eventually. That's the shaft along the passage from the steps to the roof -- in case this hasn't been mentioned before.

I've updated the wiki with some bugs/glitches. Hopefully they will be fixed. There are some current players that seem to be taking advantage of these glitches and its causing the online games to be crap, boring and pretty much a waste of time.

Like the Axe bug in Offices, weld the roof door, specimens will come to attack, players with axes stand facing the wooden sections and just hit out, eventually they will kill all specimens and gain all the money. Certain players seem to brag about this, why? What is the fucking point of playing this game if all your gonna do is cheat to gain more money, is that what its all about, getting the best score? PATHETIC...

that's not a bug, that's realism.
But since 2.11, it's really easy because in 2.0 and 2.1, some speciments could spawn upstairs and attack you from behind. So it was a stupid place to camp.

Bug in WestLondon in 2.11: In the new room left of the first room in the PD, you can jump on the filing cabinet (or what ever they are) and can't be attacked speciments.

Hey, hey Grim I'm being called again ;D. In offices it's exactly what I do, weld n axe. In later waves, weld and LAW, but I don't play KF for score or money but because I love it. Damn it's fun axing a bunch of stupid zombies and splattering a great big bunch with the LAW. Yummy, yummy!

I prefer 'advantage' -- cheat just isn't right. Hell, is welding the backdoors in biotics a cheat or dropping weapons to gain speed? Let's get it in perspective. Cheat is godmode; all weapons. I played someone's online server that had godmode / chainsaws but it got boring quickly.

AIs always gunna be one step behind the human and I just love how people innovate. An example I can think of, of a glitch free game is Simcity 4 (3?). They closed all loopholes from previous simcity's so in 4 you struggle along with just enough cash and it's shit. Even if you add the cash cheat, the game causes just enough problems making extra cash useless. Transport Tycoon2 similar -- I used to love screwing with the AI opponents but 2, loopholes closed -- I hated it, never played it again.

True Cheats, I hate true cheats -- BF1942 -- I used loved it behind enemy lines blowing up noob artillery and tanks -- knifing snipers -- I surprised 11 noobs all milling around preparing defence, lol -- they didn't know what was happening. (I never spawn rape -- the 11 noobs thing was well into the game). But cheat hacks arrived and you couldn't hide or sneak around, so the game for me was screwed.

So CHEATS compared to CUNNING, INNOVATION and ADVANTAGE, there is a difference.

I agree with you to some extent, snipe. But entering a game, and there's five of them.. fug*...da#¤cntz...
z.. up on the police gate wall. You hit disconnect, or you kill the door.

Edit: I hit disconnect or I kill the door.

Yeah I understand where Asnipe is coming from too, but IMO KF is not that game for this kind of play. Its about Survival Horror, yes you can camp at certain points, weld for cover etc etc, but at the end of the day KF is about being on the run with some freak scientific out of control specimens coming for you, not some dumb zed who just stands there waiting to be killed.

I really do hope Alex fixes these glitches up, just like PiX said above, if I see people cheating I attempt to get them to play properly, if they dont then I usually just click disconnect. I would much rather play on a server that is hard to survive on more than a server where people get kicks outta how much money they got from glitching!

[Antigod]

BTW peace everyone, im not having a personal go at anyone on here, it's just these past few weeks playing KF online has become quite dull due to the above repetitive play, I just want to have a great fun online game of KF.

Ok here is a question. Is it cheating/glitching going into the secret area on Downtown?

I am unsure myself and although I take advantage of it I feel a little guilty. Any opinions?

Downtown?

You should feel guilty for even mentioning that map.



I highly dislike that level.
