New Glitch or Cheating?

Argon · **New Glitch or Cheating? -** 02-01-2003, 12:42 AM

Hey guys I have been noticing on my SH server a lot of people (mostly various clan members!!) have been doing different sketchy things:

I notice people not walking/running but gliding across the ground and you can't hear thier footsteps (I've mentioned this one before).
I see people disapearing in/out of the ground while walking around the map. Usually they jump off a ledge and disappear in the ground for a bit.
I have also seen a few people pop in and out of the wall.

Now I know about landsharking and the buttslide but this is something different. It seems like only other clan members have been doing this, which IMO means its some sort of bug or glitch that these experienced guys are exploiting.

Any ideas on this or has anyone seen people doing this? Several people on my server clan/non-clan members have pointed this out to me. I'll try to get a screenie and post it. I have the latest patches and fixes loaded on the server.

*steps on soap box*
My point about clan members doing this or any kind of cheat. Its really shittly and disgraceful that they would cheat, especially wearing their clan tags! I think its wrong to cheat in the first place, but to come on someones server and exploit a bug or use a cheat is fucking lame!! At least drop the tags if your gonna be an ass!!
*Steps off*
Sorry, flame on...

Yes there is a couple of glitches in Spearhead that cause this. Nothing you can do right now. One looks like you are on one foot, and you are gliding. This usually happens when you jump to certain spots. You can reverse the glitch by walking off of a ledge or steps.

You can do it on one of the maps in MOH as well. Seen it done last night.

Like Holly said, it's a random glitch. Just have a player fall off a ledge/steps, so they actaully come off the ground, this will fix it. Otherwise, the player cannot jump or duck.

EA will prolly never patch this problem either.

it seems to happen to me alot. Its good in the fact you have no footsteps but you cant lean, that bothers me. I usally chuck a nade against the wall and blow myself up, to "reset" the player

You know, it's funny how many people kill themselves to get out of a glitch situation, when all the y have to do is go into spectator and then rejoin. biggrin: That way it doesn't count as a death.
