So I was watching some of these MLG tournament videos that I found on the internet. They were of team Final Boss Vs. Team Carbon from a while back. Final boss had gone unbeaten the entire season and it seems the reason for this undefeated status was do to the enormous amount of glitching MLG allows. My question is why would MLG alow this? Do they allow football players to juice up on steroids before a game.....NO. So why do they allow glitching? Now I know why they dont want to sponser H3 because as of now no unfair weapon glitches have been discovered and H3 is a very even game. MLG has no respect for Bungie or Halo 2 itself by continuing to allow these "pros" to glitch during tournies.

Maybe because button glitches are an intergal part of the game at higher levels? Just a thought.

They do not glitch. Those are weapon exploits. Exploits aren't glitching there just there because bungie probably didn't look them over. They (MLG) allow anything thats part of the game and it is encouraged for everyone to use for tactical purposes. And if you don't like em just do it. I BXR, RRx and others. And it is not unfair since anyone can do it (practice of course).

I'd love to be a 10 year old and tell my mom I'm going on an adventure out into the world catching Pokemon, with her full support. Never mind the fact that there are rapists, criminals, and murders out there, or the fact that I may get killed by a Pokemon.

Luckily I have Pikachu.

BXR and other animation exploits are bugs/glitches, MLG supports them in their own tournamnets because they can (I think MLG sucks anyway), using them in matchmaking them though is cheating, but Bungie can't detect it, so you have to use cheating feedback in matchmaking.

Because it's MLG's tournaments, so it's their rules. They do whatever they want there.

It is glitching...
I don't mind that they glitch sense all of them use the glitches. If I was in a tournament where I could win money I would glitch too.

Oh, and Final Boss isn't amazing because of Button Glitches. They're amazing because of their team work and skill.

Lets just put it this way- BxR'ing isn't going to save you when you have 4 people shooting you from their setup, is it?

Because it makes the game take more skill? It adds more tactics to win? It makes the game harder to master? And I don't think MLG would be affiliated with Bungie if they didn't respect them. Goodbye!

Well the bxr was there just useless till the patch came out. These button exploits are tactical and if mlg wants to use them then they can.

I like how no one likes to call MLG a sport( myself included) but constantly compare it to sports like football.

1st its called a beta test so bungie can find these glitches
2nd the magnum was going to be in the beta but they pulled it out because they hadnt finished it yet which is why you can glitch with it, i doubt you will be able to glitch with it in the final game

Okay, but how do you make the same mistake twice in a row?

  • 07.01.2007 1:22 PM PDT

Trying hard or hardly trying?

thats true about the magnum. it wont be glitchy in the final game.

oh my god i hope this whole "MLG is s sport!!" bull-blam!- doesnt start again... anyway, they use button glitches cuz they cant win without em... end of story.
Your a -blam!- idiot. They don't need button glitches to win, but since they are their and are similar to the double melee in h1 they use them. Those glitches don't decide a game, teamwork does.

  • 07.01.2007 1:26 PM PDT

the magnum is going to be fixed so its not really a mistake

those people shouldnt have been able to play with the unfinished version if they didnt 'glitch' into custom games

That's fine, there will always be more glitches.

as long as those glitches wont be player controlable (ie BXR) and happen in the rare occasion (like the suicide when using brute grenades to stick) it will be fine as they will not be exploited

Oh and the real reason they allow them other then they are skillful, is that their is no way to watch every screen to see if someone is using BXR or doubleshot etc.
