Dust Glitch Area?

[JimMusty]

This is a message concerning another e member. he was wondering if the A double-door window area was a glitch spot because it is possible to get into using barrels. help appreciated

It sounds like what you are describing is boosting, which is not allowed.

 

[Cacophonus]

if you can't get somewhere on your own, you aren't supposed to be there is the general rule of thumb I believe.

 

[Rathion]

There are some areas that barrels are needed to get to and I have been told by leadership that it depends on the area.

 

[The Yeti]

ANY area which requires one to stand on an object or another player to access is not allowed.

Thanks for the help, i'll let him know

I'm sorry guys I'm still a little confused about this was wondering if maybe you guys could help clear it up for me. Does this mean movable objects such as barrels only? Like on dust2 at bravo the deck has like a small wall around it, you can use that small little wall around the deck to get up on top of the boxes, is this ok?

I mean any area that requires you to step on something not part of the static map. If an object is static (can't be moved, which makes is part of the map), you can use it to get somewhere else. However, moving a barrel somewhere, then jumping on the barrel to get into said somewhere, is not allowed (since player-boosting is disabled, we don't need to worry about that, though I've seen some ingenious tower designs own at, say, karam).

Sweet thanks just didn't wanna get pimp slapped one day for being somewhere I shouldn't lol :-D

 

[Gunney]

How about the double stack boxes in Bravo? I can easily jump on static parts of the map to get there.

 

[Cacophonus]

That's a map feature then; its not that you're "boosting" yourself there.

Keep in mind Gunney, if I said you couldn't be there, the same logic that denies the double stack in bravo would deny access to the back of marine spawn to INS! We either need to jump up 3 boxes to get there, or climb a ladder!

lol there was a major problem on the uk delta dust 2 servers. on that server you could player boost and everyone was boosting people onto the rooftops!!! now that was a problem. In my opinion i'm kinda okay with people boosting with barrels unless they're boosting into the spawn (which i believe is boost proof), I still do understand why theres a rule preventing barrel boosting though.

 

[Cacophonus]

No, you can barrel boost into spawn with ease actually. Matter of fact, I don't know a single spawn you can't barrel boost into if there is a barrel on the map.
