Glitching inside sandbags.

<1sk>Headshot · 12-11-2007, 07:06 AM

Forgot to take a screenshot. Basically sandbags were placed on the big hill at South Bridge on OGT facing down the hill. The hill is pretty steep there but still traversable. One sandbag on the steepest part had a little opening at the bottom where the sandbag didn't go low enough at the front in which people could crawl in and shoot upwards through the sandbag killing everyone.

EDIT: added picture

not much point posting then.. you're talking about a commander placed sandbag, right?.. in certain locations/terrain the base of these can be slightly off the ground. Not news though. Sounds like the player was smart, was it not possible to shoot him back?

Smart? Although I know nothing of the DEVs intentions, I don't think they intended this. Hence it's a glitch/bug.

No, he was inside the sandbag.

Yeah, there's been a lot of bugs with commander assets, as expected because they are new, just thought I'd report this so people know what to look out for..

Oh ok.. i thought he was lying and shooting under the bags.. not in them to the extent that you could not shoot back.

I experienced this on an OGT Firebase yesterday, and seen it before.
When the asset is too tall, it might even be entrable without any real/visible opening.

Had it happen on Seven gates before when it was placed on one of those steep staircases .

I noticed the mesh hole long ago, was probably just a matter of time until someone deploys it in such spot, where one can glitch inside it

The bottom of bunkers seems to be solid. So I guess this is an easy fix...

Easy fix indeed, just cover up the bottom "hole" with a new poly or whatever.
