Exploits

Post by Johnimus Prime » Mon Jan 12, 2009 5:30 pm

Was playing with Angry the other day and he said that you can knock down the door to the warehouse in No Mercy (the part outside the petrol station where you have to go up in the lift).

This can be done by all the survivors meeling the door, but some servers have added a patch to prevent anyone (but the tank) doing this.

I've seen one or two map "exploits" and I kind of disagree on classifying them that way - L4D is hard enough, and to spend one's time exploring the map, looking for better strategies shouldn't be discouraged. In my mind it's not the same thing as (in some video games) getting oneself completely outside the map where things are undefined.

That's fair enough xexes, but i'm not sure hammering the door with melee was deliberately included by the devs.

In light of breakable TF2 walls and such (Avanti church) it kinda seemed normal to me.
