Besides, who doesnt love free XP?

I kid, sometimes its acceptable, but it can get out of hand.
Such is the form of my sin.

the reason i posted this thread was because there was such kind of linking happening and i wasn't sure if that was glitching.

I like this server so i was didn't want to participate in that unless i'm assured that it's okay to do so.

in my opinion there should never be free xp. some kind of risk should exist in order to make this game fun for everybody.

also this kind of linking is unfair to peeps who are risking their asses dancing out there. coz u are killing all the monsters and thus lowering their chance of regenerating their adren.

and about that reloading + deemer thing, i tested it out with karma and i ended up killing myself in the process. haha. what i know is they are going to fix that soon.

LOL! Yes...the dangers of deemer spam...an unexpected monster just happens to jump in front of your last shot...up close and personal! ;)

And yes, a fix is on the way.

Reloading superweapons should be fixed with DWRPG105.*

*Did some testing with Kronos the other night and he wasn't able to regain ammo for his super weapons, but I would like a bit more testing to make sure.




As for a formal definition of glitching - I'm pretty wary to describe any use of a weapon where a player isn't in danger as "glitching" - Smart use of the Mine Layer/Flak Secondary or Flak Primary/Ripper Primary allows you to hit enemies with little to no risk. But that's not glitching, it's just intelligent use of built-in features of the weapon. Glitching is pretty much about using bugs / unintended consequences of a feature for personal gain. I doubt Epic/Mysterial ever intended the Link Gun to shoot through walls, for example (and this may not even be possible with the standard Link Gun - It might be a quirk of the RPGLinkGun), so I consider it a glitch.

BOTTOM LINE--------

if an admin says it is glitching, its probably a good idea not to argue.

Many have tried, I know of no one that has prevailed.[won the argument.]
But many have gone on vacation.
