Re: Cheats

In Response To: Re: Cheats (NOKYARD)

: good to see this has generated such a healthy debate....

: if you missed Raigns's post i'll quote myself here: "i still think it
: would be impossible to determine a 'normal' or 'Bungie intended' path for
: this game - sure some obvious parts might be the Uprising shortcut - or
: Delta's 'nothing but jackal' loadzone trickery

: but, on Delta, are we to fight off the waves of Phantoms and wait for our
: hog, then drop the bridge, wait for the Scorpion, blast our way through
: killing everything along the way, wait for the Pelican to drop off more
: marines, fight our way through the middle structure, snipe all jackals,
: snipe more jackals, wait for the drones, kill them, go into the temple and
: finish off the elites - as Bungie intended

: that alone would take 15 minutes - anything other than that could be
: considered a cheat

: it's like this: rules(game)clock - the rules and clock are absolute -
: everything in between is 'fair game' (except, of course, modding)

: Bungie created a couple of amazing games - it is our passion to speedrun this
: game using every trick, glitch, shortcut, loadzone manipulation, intended
: suicide, over-the-wall out-of-the-level through-the-door through-the-glass
: past-the-invisible-barrier jump-off-a-cliff rocket/sword-lunging
: grenade-jumping pp-overloading sword-cancelling pressure-launching
: ghost-launching superbouncing crouch/grenade-sliding SWFing
: backpack-reloading and overjumping trick in the book - and then find more
: - this is HIH - this is what we do - this is why we're here - this is why
: people watch speedruns - anything less is just playing for fun"

: and if you still think it's cheating, why didn't Bungie do anything to
: prevent us from doing it? - why is there not an invisible barrier
: surrounding the rooftops of Outskirts like there is on Turf? (and why did
: they put ammo up there?) - just go ask them, they like watching speedruns
: as much as anybody else - did they banhammer us? no they congratulated us
: on their Front Page

Well said. Your right the reason bungie is making the glitches is for the huge profits that come from the fan obsession. That's why there is always a way to get out of a level even if bungie didn't want you to. It gives them room to be a bit sloppy in the barrier designs. And ,oh yeah, on turf you can jump the invisible wall.
