View Full Version : My two cents on "Glitching" things

Moving items to block the path, you all know what I am talking about. I can ruin the fun if you have complete dick cheese for an enemy but think about it:
The end of the world almost everyone is infected few are immune and there are super infected (boss infected). They are strong, quick and, fairly intelligent. If this were to happen IRL then you would have infected moving things about to kill you for what ever their motivations are. I think that Valve should not make these things immovable but either harder to move for infected and easier to move for survivors or say spawn a propane tank or O2 tank near these locations for the survivors to use if they stay in one place for more than say 3 mins? I think that yes it is annoying and I get pissed if someone moves something into the way (more often than not making it worse for them next round). What are your thoughts on this. Make it somewhat more realistic or just nix it all together.

Speaking of glitching, in a versus game a few hours ago I was the tank in the BH finale. The opposing team was camping in the corner of the radio room with auto shotguns. Go fucking figure.

So I hit them through the wall. "Wtf, through the fucking wall?!"

As far as I'm concerned, if somebody exploits or pulls a dick move, you do it back.

Making the objects immovable runs the risk of survivors getting stuck somewhere by getting punched by a tank or some sort of explosion. I think they should make it so infected couldnt move anything with the exception of the tanks punch/boomer explosion and the survivors should be able to melee something enough times to move it ever so slightly if they had to for w/e reason.

when the 360 patch comes, you will find that objects moved by the tank disappear after a while. So dont worry.

And I dont see anything wrong at all with people organizing themselves in a strategic hard to hit area with full auto shotties. It almost seems like you think that is cheating, and that they should run into open areas full of potential for an infected ambush, and just take the hits.

I also don't see anything wrong with punching through the walls.

Sitting in a corner inside all of your team mates with 4 auto shotties while spamming melee, is quite possibly the most pathetic "strategy" I have seen the entire time I have played games online. Nothing can get through, and it takes absolutely no skill whatsoever.

Cars that block paths disappear after sometime of not being hit by the tank in the 360 ver already.

Thats about as tasteful as any other glitch.

Everything should be breakable for a Tank. It makes sense that a tank could punch through a wall it is some steroid junky that can rip up concrete. Survivors can shoot through walls. I don't know how many times i have been shot down as a boomer on the other side of a wall.

so you think survivors should not use an effective strategy to avoid damage? The point is for survivors to minimize as much damage as possible. I see nothing wrong with corner camping and killing the tank in seconds. It takes organization, and there is no fix for it, as long as there is a corner, a room, anything, survivors will do this, and rightfully so. Running around like Rambo shooting stuff up all heroically SHOULD be punished.

If you honestly think hiding yourself in a corner is fair then you clearly lack any actual skill. There is a difference between strategy, and abusing the ability to hide in each other and constantly melee. You can go ahead and keep that pathetic display in campaign.

Camping when nothing is going on is bad, but holding up in one place to keep everyone from getting destroyed is good. And I DONT get killed in seconds when I play tank. If I see that they are held up tight in a good spot, and throwing rocks wont work, I run far ahead and strategically place the tank in a spot where the AI will take control once it sees the survivors.

And who gives a rat's ass if the player playing as the tank got killed in seconds? He just got rocked, and obviously deservedly so, he was dumb to go after a well organized team the way that he did. He shouldn't be pampered just cause he sucks.

Probably something like the whole "boomers belly going through the wall" thing I'd imagine, if you' have gone in there while they all had shot guns blazing you'd be screwed though, I've had a team take down a tank like that in 10 seconds tops.

Sounds to me like you probably sit in one play and melee cars around until they get to you, tsk tsk, cheap tactic.

first off, no i dont because that was patched out on the last update for the PC version, and second, I dont see anything wrong with that either. All is fair in love and war. Its all about judgement calls. If you are going to get killed because a team is well organized, create a situation where they are split up before making your strike. I dont see the point in rushing head first into a situation if there is clearly a more effective way around it.

Lol...so you admit that something that was clearly patched because its not the way the devs wanted the game to be played is not only something youd do but wouldnt have continued doing it if you could, tsk tsk. You have the attitude of someone who loses a lot and takes any chance cheap or not to get ahead.

I like how with you its either hide in a corner and camp or run off ahead like youre playing Grand Turismo and youre trying to finish before your team mates. Is your life honestly that black and white?

The zombie mod was just that, a mod. It worked for them because of the quick respawn and the fact that you had tons of HP and you could have other people help you by infecting them. Dont go comparing two VERY different games to justify your clear lack of a decent strategy.

Since

There's nothing wrong with camping in a decent corner, everyone wielding autos. Its a good tactic. Survivors want to minimise damage taken, that's one way to do it. I actually don't think its the best way, since if a boomer DOES get close or a hunter does land, its all four of you staggered.

Also, I once watched a team in NM4, closet camping. It actually wrecked them because they never noticed the lift had arrived. They were there at least 2 minutes after its arrival, we managed to keep a constant stream of infected with boomer puke and actually killed one before they got in the lift. If you can't think your way round this "unbeatable" tactic, that's your problem.

Yet another "player" that thinks spamming melee and hoarding auto shotguns in a corner is a legit "strategy". Id actually like to see you try and make any significant damage trying to pounce into a corner of 4 peoples melee. The point if, its effective but it takes no skill therefor its a cheap thing to do.

Yeah so youre saying these people are so unskilled that they were camping in a closet and they werent alert enough to know when it was time to go and thats what got one of them killed not that you found some great counter to their cheap "strategy".

My point is that it takes not skill and its a cheap thing to do, sitting in your team mates spamming the melee, especially in versus games. If you do this and you think youve got some sort of skill then youre sadly mistaken. A good team would find a decent room and watch the entrances during crescendos attacks, not pile up on each other like its some orgy.

You might aswell add me to your list of "unskilled" players. So... In a zombie apocalypse you would run out and play rambo?
In Left 4 Dead it's all about staying alive, and if you "camp corners" to achieve it, its allright with me, you have to move once anyways, thats when you strike. And if the tank gets killed in 10 seconds, well then the player arent that good really, I have yet too see a tank go down in 10 seconds on versus.

CS Fanboys nothing. I'm going to take it you never played through the Commentary mode, in which the developers talk about how L4D was first thought of because they were developing bots for Counter-Strike, and found it was fun as hell to pit 3 or 4 human players against a crap load of enemy bots who were armed with nothing but knives?

My point is that it takes not skill and its a cheap thing to do, sitting in your team mates spamming the melee, especially in versus games. If you do this and you think youve got some sort of skill then youre sadly mistaken. A good team would find a decent room and watch the entrances during crescendos attacks, not pile up on each other like its some orgy.

Honestly, if your infected team can't strategize a way to rape the survivors as they exit the closet/corner, which they will inevitably need to do at some point, that's not the fault of the survivors. Besides, what's the difference between sitting in a corner and destroying whatever infected get close, and sitting in a room with one entrance, and destroying whatever infected get close? There's no more skill involved, you're just in a different location, and more spread out. I guess if your goal is to encourage friendly fire whenever a zombie breaks through towards one of your teammates, and you all start firing at it, then I can see how it's less cheap. I mean, more dmg to the survivors = better for the infected, right?

I think people have a hard time realizing that when a crescendo event occurs, the survivors are supposed to find somewhere safe and hold out until it's safe to keep going. Corner camping is less cheap than using the smoker underneath the roof in NM3 as the survivors have to go along the pipes to get through the window. Nothing they can really do to stop from getting pulled off, yet that's accepted as a valid strategy.

You barely make any sense. Youre saying that doing something that can only be done with one infected in a certain spot is less skillful than piling up and spamming melee which could be done in ANY corner by holding down a trigger?

If you listen to the commentary the devs put the ability to take up the same space as your team mates as a way to counteract a certain type of grieving, not so you could hide in a corner for the entire finale on versus.

Ive seen teams that were so bad using it that one would get puked on and EVERYONE was in a corner, hitting melee, I didnt even hear one shot. Its a cheap strategy that takes practically no skill just the common sense to hold down a trigger and back on the right stick.

I think its fine if youre trying to beat campaign on expert but its unsportsmanlike to sit in a corner up your teams butt and melee for ever little reason.

I have yet too see a tank go down in 10 seconds on versus.

Lol...one player can take a tank out with an auto shotgun easily. Go watch what happens when 4 players camp a corner in NM Finale and a tank spawns.

i'm with PSOLaguna on this. sure you can corner camp but don't even try to pass it off as a skilled maneuver. how anyone can sit there during an entire finale and consider it fun is beyond me. hell, why sit there and have to hold down a button when you can &quot;take a break&quot; and let the a.i. play for you. at least that way it might be fun to watch. keep the NM ramp trick if you'd like but corner camping is lame. if the survivors weren't capable of occupying one spot then while they were bunched up in a corner there is the chance that you find a momentarily unprotected angle to exploit while they are taking a risk of getting friendly fire. the fact that those trying to defend this crap behavior by going the opposite extreme shows how weak their argument is. just because you don't camp corners does not mean you automatically go into rambo mode. you can be a tight unit without resorting to such things. that said, it's your game and you paid for it so do what you want but don't bother trying to convince anyone but yourselves that its some sort of a pro tactic.

I still don't think you fully understand what self preservation means. This is a survival horror/action game. SURVIVAL horror. You survive. You don't put yourself in situations where you will get destroyed. Its obvious you cant wrap your head around that concept, you dont have to tell us you cant.

I do find the standing in a corner spamming melee technique somewhat cheap in its present form. Of course I still do it (hypocrite much I know).

However, I'd be interested in a slightly more realistic approach that would undoubtedly end this behavior. Of course making it so 4 different people can't occupy the same space would stop this problem but it would present a host of others with the game physics.

An easier solution would be to make it so melee does damage to other players, or at least sends them through the pushback animation. It just baffles me that the same melee that kills an infected in a few hits does absolutely nothing to an ally.

So many of the people claiming it's strategy and running around &quot;Rambo&quot; style is the only other alternative are accepting an impossible act as logical/legit...Irony runs thick.

You are assuming it isnt fun for everybody. I find that living to the end of a map is much more fun than dieing. Therefore, I enjoy corner camping to save my ass and keep playing. And if my fun happens to piss off other players who are stupid and run in my line of fire and die in under 10 seconds, than I am having more fun. If they rage, I am having even MORE fun. In all honesty, the more pissed off the other team gets, the happier I am.

If you have to play cheap to win a map, then you don't really have skills, and if you can't have fun when you die either, you can't really have fun in the game.

This is exactly why there is SO much glitching and exploiting in this game. If there are this many people who think corner camping is a legit tactic, then there are just as many people who believe glitching is OK because it is &quot;just part of the game&quot;.

This might be the funniest thread I have read in a while. To go from corner camping to rambo as the only two options is just downright fuckin hilarious.

ok, I understand there is more to winning, but it is all to easy to not have fun if you are dead and watching the action, and losing can be frustrating.

I SEE your point about NOT camping corners, but I still think it is a legit way to get through a level, since it is not cheating, exploiting or otherwise. Its simply a group of people taking advantage of a particular area in a map to survive. But there isnt some code of chivalry that is in video games, and killing a tank dead in seconds is the ideal thing to do, its not a good idea to tango with it in an open space killed with potential ambushes.

The difference is what you do to achieve those goals. People who corner camp in versus just piss me off, as they have such little skill and try to justify it most of the time and the fact that its not that important to win, and corner camping doesn't make it too fun for either teams.

Heres a thought.

Minimizing damage in a corner is more skillful than running around in the middle of a fucking room like a chicken with its head cut off and a firecracker up its ass

Did I ever say run around the room like a headless chicken? No, there is such thing as strategy without corner camping you know.

Back to the subject at hand.

Corner camping is an efficient, practical and useful strategy. Here's why:

It minimizes damage. In the event of a horde attack, panic event, or finale, there is no better strategy to stay healthy than to corner camp. If someone has a better strategy, state it.

Note that I didn't not take 'fun' into account, because fun is impossible to gauge.

Im gonna post my finishing thoughts here unless something else crazy pops up on this thread: I see your point about not camping in corners, and I definitely disagree with using exploits/glitches/cheats. I don't really see a difference in camping in vs or campaign, its equally as useful/fun(or not fun, depending on who you ask). But I dont think its very constructive or reasonable to think that corner camping for intense situations like tanks or crescendo hordes is terrible and noobish. And some people on here are getting way too angry about the views of others. Take it easy, and learn to dela with it, the problem (well, problem to SOME) is not going anywhere, at least for a LONG time.

although as far as corner camping goes i feel as though I should interject my opinion.

Now think back way to the demo and how excited we were to play it and the generator room run downs. One person guarding the hole, one person minigunning, one person to back up the minigunner and one spare guy to go where he was needed and fend against special infected.

Strategies like that are non existent anymore and have been replaced by corners, now im not saying dont use them they are indeed useful, but i feel like we're kind of missing the point because its obvious a lot of stands are supposed to center around the minigun yet no one uses it and woulld rather sit in a corner and melee. Like I said it works and I use it for boomer bile and horde rushes but I wish people would stop using it for crescendos and finales because it really does drain out the fun

Now think back way to the demo and how excited we were to play it and the generator room run downs. One person guarding the hole, one person minigunning, one person to back up the minigunner and one spare guy to go where he was needed and fend against special infected.

Ah memories! now long forgotten. They may as well replace the turret with a tree or something pretty to look at during versus games, lol...

You're an adult, I expected more maturity out of you than these emotional kids.


Lmao...lets see here...

Minimizing damage in a corner is more skillful than running around in the middle of a fucking room like a chicken with its head cut off and a firecracker up its ass.

Exaggeration.

You know what sucks? That the survivors have guns. Makes it annoying to go against them. I'd kill em much more easily if they were senile, unarmed amputees.

Sarcasm.

Ugh. If you think this is as/more efficient than corner camping, I don't know how you passed third grade thinking skills.

I've known enough polaroids to know that you all have buttons that are easily pushed. You can hide it from these dipshits who lap up anything you say and appearantly have little life experience, or are just fucking naive. Everyone here seems like an annoying happy-go-lucky high schooler or an oblivious, emotionally sustained attention seeker in constant need of reassurance.

Glitches vary greatly though. One of my favorite glitches (aside from the one we discovered) is the Turret Jump. Why? Well, I like to goof off a lot in game.

On the other side of the spectrum, there's a glitch in Sonic Adventure where you can never beat the game. That's not a fun glitch. (The game locks you in an area you aren't suppose to be and you cannot leave O_O )

Lame ass glitch on Viking for 360. I was playing on hard and the final boss glitched. She has these walls of fire you need to avoid/use to kill enemies quickly before they ass rape you but she kept spawning people for like literally 10 mins before the animation sequence would start up and she would die...With limited health and her having several phases before I could get back to that part. I wanted to drown kittens if I had died again...

Glitches are great though. Overall it shows that it isn't perfect. I know, that sounds retarded, but if everything was perfect, it'd be dull and boring. I like finding glitches, even if I'm not the first one to find it. Unless it's game breaking on your side, I usually find glitches a blast to play with.

Examples in L4D: Elevator Shaft, Turret Jumping, Wall Phasing (which is what I deem the &quot;Jumping through walls&quot; glitch!)

As long as you use them within the correct context, they can be awesome :D

The point if, its effective but it takes no skill therefor its a cheap thing to do.
