It has recently come to my attention that there is an exploit that will allow a player (usually from the Ambush squad) to gain access to the rooftops on the west side of the Dusk map. While it requires no cheats, it does require exploiting a glitch in the map ... and it is therefore declared a Stage-Three Bannable Offense to be found on (or attempting to get on) Dusk's west side rooftops on any House-=Of-God=- server. A note to this effect has been added to the server scroller as a corollary to Rule #4 regarding how we view exploits.
This exploit also requires the complicity of a living teammate on the server. Both the player on the rooftops and his accomplice (if known) will be subject to the Stage-Three ban.
Due to wanting to keep people from doing this, I will not post here how it is done, but the server admins will be instructed in what to watch for (other than just someone on the roof, although that's the obvious "tell" that someone is exploiting the glitch).
ALL CLAN MEMBERS: Be vigilant after you die (especially if you play on the Ambush team) ... spectate all of your living teammates. If you find one of them on the western rooftops, take a screenshot to show that the player is indeed there, then immediately remove the exploiter from the server using "pb_kick". (ADMINS: you may use "admin pb_sv_ban" and include "rooftop exploit" for the reason.) Also, be sure to include the spectated player's name at the top of the screen when you post the shot for the log.

I also understand that you can run under the map as well.

Yep ... going under the map is prohibited and bannable on our servers. BTW, we caught one last night. He actually came onto our Dusk server while I was alone and offered to teach me how to exploit the glitch (as if I didn't already know :  . So I played stupid (not hard for me, usually), let him show me exactly where to do it (so I'd know for sure that he did knew and was trying to spread it). And no, he didn't know I was Admin when he said it ... so it's not like he was trying to report the error ... he was trying to teach others to use it. He's banned now.  ( Here's the info and full story, with the screenshots of our conversation.) |

I can't see the screen shots but I noticed you said this glitch was also in the Border map. I don't think any of my guys know about that one. Is there some way you can send me a screen shot or post on our forum site so that everyone is aware of this issue? Thanks.

I don't know about any such glitch on the Border map, as I don't play it -- and the person who posted it in this thread (whoever that was) is no longer a forum member here, so you probably won't get a response on that. On the other hand, now that you have "Allied Clan" access here , you can click that link above and see the thread and its composite screenshot.  |

there used to be a roof "bug" on border where you could hop on a barrel and then hop on the roof from there. It didn't offer a very good tactical advantage though, and I'm pretty sure they took it out.

Yeah, right, that rings a bell. The difference there is that in Border, it was within the normal map boundary and accessible to a single player (thus making it technically not a map glitch exploit) ... whereas in Dusk, accessing the western rooftops required two people collaborating in order to get one of them to a place outside the normal boundary of the map (which makes it illegal, at least in our eyes . |
