a fps glitch is COMPLETELY UNRELATED to the sc2 balancing process. and you're dumber then a nut if you consider a balanced rts dull. and I sit here typing and erasing considering if I should bother explaining this to you. I'll go to my main point, high level play is learning everything about every unit and then using your units as effective as possible. not exploiting glitches.

IMO: This post should be moved from the sc2 section or closed

Random question - Is there a good private gunz server with kstylers and no hackers? I would still play if there was.

I don't see why not.

WC3 doesn't have Muta stacking and yet its top players all boast a huge amount of skill and experience.

You shouldn't be asking that here =P just search around in the gunz communities and not TL. I feel bad for reviving this thread, but I just wanted to express my feelings about how tragic a game that had so much potential could die out because of the lack of support it got from the company it was produced from. But my woes fall upon deaf ears, which I understand.

Someone close this thread and end it just like how Gunz is steadily dying and fading away.

In GunZ, you use the fact that slashing your sword cancels delay to perform many actions in very quick succession, giving you an edge versus a player not exploiting this "glitch." This quickly developed into what is known as K-style, and its growth from glitch into commonplace tactic is very similar to that of Muta micro. Muta stacking is a glitch (not originally intended to be part of the game). In order to use Mutas as effectively as possible, you stack them. These two things are not mutually exclusive.

Oh, wow. I remember Gunz. Was pretty fun K-styling back in the day. I completely agree with the points you're making though.

Was funny when I was learning how to K-style.. People called me a 'noob' because I couldn't properly use the exploit.

I agree with you, OP. But really, what do you want them to do? Should they make a game riddled with bugs and hope that one of them revolutionizes gameplay?

It's a lose-lose situation. Game companies try to make perfect games without bugs. Yet if they succeed, they miss out on some things that have made some of the best games of all time.

Until a game company comes along that's brilliant enough to purposely implement things like muta-stacking and moving shot, there's really no way they can win.

the op isn't saying you should make a bug riddled game

it's about don't listen to whiners and realize that this thing has made your game a significantly better game, don't remove it.

It really is interesting though, think about all the patches that blizzard has done. Some of these patches may have gotten rid of something really cool equivalent to Muta-stacking. But honestly there's not much they can do about it.

If a company can develop something that brilliant, they must have some serious geniuses on the development team.

Lol i made a Sc2 thread on Gzf a while ago...
Only tie between SC and GunZ i see is that Idra is almost at the level of BM as the average gunz player...
Fkn played gunz for 5 years... so hard to not be a BM asshole on SC2 coming from the worst gaming community EVER haha.

More on topic, NO game will reach the level of how gunz' mechanics are exploited... But i love to see little tricks like that in games

I am really sick of the idea that there needs to be some sort of hidden trick in SC2. Or multiple hidden tricks. What's wrong with laying all the tools out to a player, then letting each individual player do their best?

Besides, as many people have already pointed out, not every glitch is a good glitch. Sliding buildings, allied mines, gaswalk and many other SC:BW "glitches" are not allowed in competitive play.

It's not like everyone found out about these BW glitches like muta stacking right away, even. That was a relatively late invention. BoxeR first whipped out allied mines during a pro match confusing everyone.

As it is, there's already the ability to keep void ray's charged by microing them to shoot themselves, or abusing creep tumor radius by vomiting creep up cliffs or onto islands. It's not like there aren't glitch-like abuses to be found in SC2. They're just not the same as BW, and OH NO, there's no muta stacking.

I'm not sure I agree with this.

I don't think you need to be exploiting bugs to have a highly skilled game. Why can't you just find innovative and clever ways to use and combine the things available to you? I don't think SC2 needs bugs at all, I think it needs constantly evolving strategies and synergies.

Another example of this is the super smash series, in super smash bros melee the game was played just like the N64 version until players found a way to slide, cancel ending lag, and other character specific glitches. at that point the game grew in popularity, was picked up by MLG for many seasons, and was nintendo's top selling game for many years after its release.

A few years later its sequel brawl was released with all these fun competitive glitches removed, they slowed the overall pace of the game and by all means made it a simple game.

Its unfortunate to think that this is going to happen to sc like it has to many great games, (gunz, halo, smash)

I hope blizzard will not make this the case with sc2 even though they may have made that mistake already with WOW with a constant decline with each expansion (personal opinion of arena system)

What unintended mechanics? Muta-stack? Vulture and Muta patrol-micro? Notice, those aren't Protoss mechanics and, in fact, Protoss doesn't have such mechanics at all - the only glitches Protoss have can't be controlled and player can only suffer from them (like occasional goon path-finding issues). Does that mean that top Protoss players could never be as skilled as top zerg and terran players? Does that mean that Protoss is worser race than Zerg and Terran? =)


Protoss has the reaver micro: IE droping and then picking up before the shot hit.

There's a similar example to this in Jedi Knight: Jedi Outcast, aka jk2. The difference is it was designed to be elitist, rather than accidentally being so, but was patched to please the general public in the same manner. Developers are perfectly capable of making competent games without coding such horrible engines that they can be easily glitched.
