YEP- IM A SNIPER AND PROUD OF IT!

Ok, I am just CONFIRMING to all of you that superjumping is ALLOWED in matchmaking.
you will NOT get banned for this, even though it is a MAJOR exploit of the game.
dont believe me? heres proof:

Q
What is NOT considered a bannable offense by Bungie?

A
Quitting a game is not a bannable offense. Having a team-killer on your team sucks, but that's not a bannable offense either. Many people are also aware of the "super jumping" phenomenon that allows players on some maps to jump to extreme heights. We are monitoring this situation for long term impacts to game balance but we are not banning people who do this simply because it's too widespread and is something that's basically built into the map. Anyone can do this if they want to though it is difficult to pull off in many cases. We will continue to monitor the impacts this bug has on our game.

Is this in the right forum? if not please move it! thanks.

I like superjumping every so often, its fun and adds a new element to the game. I can see how it would suck for somebody who cant pull it off. And yes it is NOT cheating, its a glitch at best.

Its another glitch, just like button combos. Its considered cheating by Bungie and xbox live, but its not detectable, so you can't be banned for it (unless people put a lot of cheating feedback on you for doing it). Bungie has changed their stance on super bouncing since that FAQ was written. They are extremely busy though, so they have yet to edit the FAQ.

It violates the xbox live ToU, which should close the book on this discussion.

And, being that it is also a glitch that people use to gain an unfair advantage over the people who play by the rules with, you can't discuss this on the forums either.


Straight from Evilcam himself.

Bungie has no control over MLG.

It depends on the situation really. I would call it cheating if it was done in Lockout and the guy has the sniper rifle.

It's stupid. It's cheap. If a loser wants to take the time out of the game to bounce to the top of the map just so he can kill and not get killed because he's a newb, that's fine, I'll just ignore him or kill him while he sits there trying to do it. Bungie never said they dont consider it cheating, they just can't ban for it, because it's too widespread, not the usage there. They never said "We here at Bungie love to superjump and it's alright to do so". I agree with RL King. If the guy is up there with an SMG then just screw him, lol, but if he has the sniper rifle then that's a bit more serious..

It isnt cheating but it is REALLY cheap and -blam!- and everyone on the other team will hate you like hell for doing it
the only reason it isnt considered cheating is practically everyone does it and there is too many people to ban and not enough banhammer to go around

Its cheating no matter what bungie says
its just not cheating you will get banned for doing
