Kill Shots Through Objects

(eclipsedHouse) #1

I’ve been killed a number of times behind cover.

For instance, in the first part of the train yard, there are cabinets to the left of the area to plant explosives. I was stationary behind them and was killed with a shot in the middle of the right part of the cabinet…I have screen shot of this in my steam account, but not sure how to upload to this post.

I’ve also been killed by a shot that went right through the middle of the double-decker bus at the last part of Chapel.

Has anyone else experienced this? Is this a bug in the game, or am I missing something?

It’s not a bug. At least the bus isn’t a bug. I’d like to see the screenshot of the other one (just post the URL).

The glass on the double decker bus can be seen through and shot through. I do it all the time. It’s the closest thing this game has to wallbanging.

Not sure about the cabinet, but the bus at the end of Chapel has glass. Guess what, you can shoot through glass :slight_smile:

(ostmustis) #4

its intended that you can shoot through the glass of the buss and I dont know where you are on the first one

OK…ya, now I see there is a URL for the saved pictures.

Here’s the one where I was killed by a shot through the cabinet.

You can also shoot through small openings between crates on Chapel. This might be the case with what you’re describing on Trainyard.

I’ll have to look at the bus again…the shot came from the ramp where the defenders jump in…at the time, it looked like it was going right through the meat of the bus…and at a downward angle…but I’ll look the next time I play the map.

I got headshotted through an EV by a sniper in chapel. didn’t took a screenshot sadly.
Thing is I know he is not hacking since he was pretty terrible.

Yeah, because that’s exactly what a cop, who want to bust us would say :smile:

To OP. Weird, it looks like the shot is going through the transformator. I believe those are objects you can shoot through, and the enemy could seen your butt behind that thing. Or he used a wallhack.

The cardboard boxes in a Terminal hallway as well, there is a lot you can shoot through, even if you can’t see through it. Just use common sense.

The bus thing isn’t a bug. You can shoot through glass but most people don’t know. Though I think there should be wallbangs in this game on really thin walls.

So there are objects you can shoot through…as in they offer optical cover but not physical cover?

Pretty sure that’s a hack, i encountered someone before with wallhacks, but he apologised and turned them off. Nice guy.

And shooting through glass should be explained, cos I didn’t find out till about the 60 hours mark, where I got shot through glass, accused someone of hacking, and then got laughed at cos I didn’t know.

Never again.

I don’t really know. Maybe some of the objects act like the crates in CS. Or it was a desync and he was in the rim for the enemy.

So there are hacks that allow players to shoot through walls…I’ve heard the term wallhack a few times, but only in the context of allowing the cheater to see people behind walls…like the heart-beat sensor.

Man…you lost me with that second part…

Why? It’s plausible. Your position was exactly at the powerboxes level while for him you were behind it. Maybe it’s the same as when you get killed when you already cross a corner but your hitbox is lagging and travelling behind you. Nobody knows. But as a pro-Dirty-Bomb elite gamer I will still say: “I call hacks!”

Sorry…I was just saying I don’t understand the terms you used…desync and rim for the enemy…not that I disagreed.

I understand the kill-shot that results from a moving target that appears to go through an object…still don’t understand what could cause a kill-shot to go through a solid object while I’m stationary.
