bugs, cheats and exploits

on Monday, August, 18, 2003 10:48 PM
I'm already starting to see unusual things happen online. For instance, I just got out of a match where two people had different weapons from single player. One was a machine gun, and not sure what the other was. Looked like some kind of cannon. o_O They were also able to use them while in a match.

I've also noticed that the blue discs, at least on certain servers, ALWAYS move faster than anyone else's. I've timed them, they're 50% faster or so than any other color. I believe white also moves slower, by maybe 25% or so. Not completely sure about white actually, but definitely blue.

And bugs, bugs......the one that gets to me the most is the amazing holographic ring bug, where the ring looks like it's there, but you step on it and ZAP!!! derezzed. > I also noticed that direct deflections don't always annihilate the person, but rather they catch the disc. Don't know if that's by design or what.


Sooo, I think that about covers everything I've seen thus far. If anyone has anything to add, feel free. I'm sure the devs already know about some or all of them, but if not, there ya go. Now fix it!!

The weapon thing is probably an exploit. Someone probably figured out to spawn the other weapons into the match even though they're not supposed to.

I can't confrim or deny the blue disc issue. Though it seems fine the few times I played, I haven't gone to the lengths of actually timing it. However seeing as how the color changes amount to little more than a pallette swap on the texture, it's strange that would affect any game mechanics.

The ring problem is, unfortunately, probably due to lag. Those discs move fast and if you have even a few milliseconds of lag a platform can be wiped out from the server's perspective before it registers on your machine. So even though the platform was technically there on your machine when you stepped on it, the server compares times and in actuality you stepped on the platform after it was gone. What's your connection and typical ping? How many people were playing? (If you know) how fast was the server?

As far as the deflections being caught: I think if you hit the recall button after the deflection you can catch the disc instead of getting hit by it. That may seem cheap, but if you think about it in terms of the game world it makes sense. Pressing the recall button sort of compares to the character being ready for the deflection and therefore being able to catch it.where to buy abortion pill abortion types buy abortion pill online

Well... I'm sure an upgrade will be availble... My exp with UT games is that once the fuss of a release, it's going to be buggy... Then the next project is to work on an upgrade to improve the bugs, AI, and whatever else is in order...

I'm sure the TRON team has this in mind...

-----------------------------------------------

Ok... I've got to update this post... I believe the answers is just above mine....

But I'm sure that upgrades will be availble in the future... They always are...

That's right folks . . . expect Tron 2.1 shortly after the game's release.

Seriously though, every game has bugs these days . . . hopefully they'll be minor, and quickly fixed, in this case.

I noticed two annoying bugs in the Gold demo already, which I expect to be in the full game. Someone else mentioned one of them . . . that bindings for joystick/gamepad buttons wouldn't always be remembered by the game. The other . . . doesn't matter what you do to some of the settings for light cycle matches, they're always ignored. (Unless this is intentional, for the demo.)

The "gold demo" is the second demo, right? There's not another one after that, I hope...order abortion pill morning after pill price where to buy abortion pill

BTW, in response to the question about my connection. I'm on cable, with pings usually ranging from 50-80 for most of the servers I play on. The ring bug happens even on the fastest servers, with no lag at all. It just seems like a random bug, and it's probably easily fixable. I just want to throw out everything I've seen so the devs can look into it.

Yeah I guess that sounds like a bug then.

There's probably still a few kinks in the multiplayer game. It's hard to really test MP in real world conditions even with an external beta test.

Luckily the single player (which I still think is the main draw of Tron 2.0) is rock solid.where to buy abortion pill ordering abortion pills to be shipped to house buy abortion pill onlineabortion pills online http://www.kvicksundscupen.se/template/default.aspx?abortion-questions cytotec abortion

Worst bug in the game IMO? The point bug. If your opponent falls off a platform and derezzes first and you follow him to your death, no matter what, he is always awarded the point.

There's been once or twice where I've spawned in lightcycles facing a wall.

The new Radeon drivers stretch some of the polygons on the player models to my crosshair, making them look like they're on bungie cords.

There's been a few times playing online where a team has been derezzed, yet the match continues. It only ends when the remaining team hops off their platform and derezzes, and when that happens (again!) the first team that derezzed gets the point.

When lightcycle racing, the camera tends to get squeezed between the cycle and the wall, restricting your view from the wall side. Although this isn't really a bug, is it possible to maka a camera that can phase through the solid brushes so that our view remains constant?abortion pills online abortion pill online purchase cytotec abortion

I don't believe I've seen that one. I've derezzed someone with an annihilation or with my disc on the way down, and still gotten the point.

My bug report:

(This could be the system I'm playing the demo on)

Once playing Light Cycles (SP).. When I return to the main menu, the music doesn't play.

After changing the Sound options, I don't hear the voice durning the Light Cycle (SP) start anymore.

Sometimes when I'm at 119 health in SP FPS mode, the health patch won't bost me up to 120 max.

I've noticed that when I get drunk one night, I have a really bad hang over the next.... This part really needs to be fixed because I think it's destory'n my health... lol...

Since the gold demo is a version of the final game with content removed, it should have exactly the same code as the final game. If so . . .

There's definitely a bug in the sound code, or a mistake in the sound maps. Specifically, for people using the nForce 2 chipset's built-in sound (Soundstorm) . . . like me. Though I am hearing even owners of SB cards are having similar problems. The issue is that the environmental sound effects are missing. (Missing speech is a codec installion problem, no doubt.)

One of the moderators on the official message board, advised to disable hardware sound, to fix it. Well, I have two things to say about that.

1) There's no way I'm going to disable hardware acceleration. It slows the game down. Besides, I've tried it, and it doesn't completely solve the problem. Turning EAX on and off doesn't make a real difference, either. 2) The sound effects aren't missing anyway, per se. You can't hear the environmental sounds because the volume for them is set far too low, in relation to the other sounds. If you crank up the volume, you'll hear them, even with hardware acceleration enabled. But then, everything else is way too loud . . . so you have to turn the volume back down again. >(

I tell ya, I should've been a beta tester!

How come I am NEVER getting any bugs?

Perhaps, my computer loves me.

Edit-- Seriously, I have never ran into any bugs with the demos at all? Although, I've been hearing that people are having problems with sounds/music/voices... ._. I wouldn't know personally because I can't hear the game itself and there's subtitles, so no real loss there.
As for controls/game play-wise... no, bugs... don't know why either. Everything runs so smoothly on my PC. (Except for UT2k3. Heh.)

Well, except for a couple of other minor bugs, the demo has been running perfectly for me. The only "serious" issue I've discovered, is the sound problem. The gameplay is perfect.

Hmm, as to why you're not experiencing any bugs Kia . . . you said maybe your computer loves you. Could that mean you have the Love Bug?

No . . . wait . . . don't do it! Aieee!

another bug I found...while playing this morning, I ran into a problem where players who weren't even in a match at the time would be credited with a win, and it would cause me to freeze in place while in a match myself, costing me the game.order abortion pill http://unclejohnsprojects.com/template/default.aspx?morning-after-pill-price where to buy abortion pill
