Somehow a sherman blew my lvt under the vh where I was able to rack up 11 kills.

He emailed the film in. He obviously didn't think he was doing anything wrong, if in fact he was. You self-righteous ultramaroons are irritating.

yeah you are cheating. when you found the bug you shouldda bailed out.  but you kept taking advantage of it.

I'm sure it's fun but you still exploited a bug for cheap kills, which IMO = cheating. Secondly you come to the forum showing screen shots and telling of the exploit which now means other people are going to attempt to exploit the bug until HTC releases a fix for it.

IMO you should have just emailed any films or screen shots to HTC along with an explanation of what happened.

Odd things happen in our digital world. Hardly a cheat, but very funny.

Granted put in those terms then yeah it's not that bad.

My next question would then be since when did explosions of any kind cause vehicles to move? Unless I missed a patch note, you can drop a 4k egg next to a tank and IF it survives it won't move an inch.

I don't buy the idea that an enemy tank "blew" him into a bugged area. It's more like he drove or fell through a hole in the port object that allowed this to happen. That being said I don't want to sound like he's maliciously doing this, I'm sure it was just an accident and he took advantage of it. Granted I was somewhat harsh in what I said but I'll be honest, I would be tempted to rack up as much as I could too.  :)

And you'd do exactly that, bail out, wouldn't you?

Several times, but the geniuses kept dropping supplies.  Maybe next time I have someone in my sights I should pm them to make sure they have a shot on me as well before shooting?

If I had a gun with 3 bullets and I was locked in a room with Bin Laden, Hitler, Saddam and Zipp...  I would shoot Zipp 3 times.

Yes, expect everyone to start sending LVTA2s at your tanks now.

They're shooting over the mound not through it.
Film or it didn't happen.
wrongway

BS It did happen & it was a tall mound & they were far below the top of it on line-of-sight and the crater was low in front of me.  like you were there, right?   :noid

and...It's only a cheat if "They" did it.
