PEANUT-BUTTER SLAP!

Glitches - Not meant to be in the game, and Bungie considers their use cheating. They aren't coming back

Glitch:
1. a defect or malfunction in a machine or plan.
2. Computers. any error, malfunction, or problem. Compare bug 1 (def. 5).
3. a brief or sudden interruption or surge in voltage in an electric circuit.

In lamens terms, it's not supposed to be in the game.

I would love for lower weapons glitch to be in and actually usable in multiplayer

  • 09.10.2009 6:35 PM PDT

I would rather multiplayer upgrades rather than downgrades

Well I don't think that is neccessarily a glitch. I'm pretty sure that's supposed to happen when pressing the certain buttom combination, but yah, it would be nice to have that in, but it would be stupid to have in melee or other unfair glitches.

Agreed.
But Bungie did call it a glitch themselves...

Oh, didn't know that. Well in that case, that glitch should be put back in, but others kept out.

No.

Please refer to them as combos as many people seem to be judging your choice of words more than the actual concept, which I agree with.

  • 09.10.2009 6:53 PM PDT

Really quick make an option to have combos be optional. The majority of people I know would like to be able to toggle combos on/off.

  • 09.10.2009 6:54 PM PDT

no but i hope there are multiplayer map glitches like in halo 2

No. A glitch is a mistake, so Bungie couldn't add a glitch in. What they could do is take the "glitch" and find a way to make it a part of the game. It would no longer be a glitch. For example, there could be a melee combo acted out by pressing BXB, but if you mis-time it, you are at a disadvantage (like if you mis-time your active reload in GoW).

  • 09.10.2009 6:59 PM PDT

Armor Lock isn't overpowered. You just suck at Reach :)

Reach isn't bad, you're just a BK :)

For my gamertag, look up "Ghoulishtie"

no...no...nonoNoNoNoNONONONONO!

NO BUTTON GLITCHES! THEY RUINED HALO 2! THEY ARE CALLED 'GLITCHES' FOR A REASON!

The ONLY thing button glitches seperated in the halo 2 community, was the people who actually wanted to play the game AS IT WAS MEANT TO BE PLAYED, and people who wanted cheap kills.

Bungie kept them out of Halo 3, and they sure as well will keep them out of Reach. The only glitches I liked in halo 2 were the harmless, custom game ones. (getting outside of maps, making tanks fly on coag, ect)

Boo on button glitches. I dont want to get cheated out of kills in Reach.

Well if Bungie "brought back" button glitches in REACH, they would not be glitches anymore. So if you got killed by the BXR that Bungie purposefully included in the game, you didn't get cheated.

  • 09.10.2009 7:14 PM PDT

No matter how many times I forget about this place, I always get dragged back.

I'm more than okay with that.

LOLWUT

Button glitches were just that - glitches. You're essentially saying that you want Bungie to code bugs into Reach.

I AM AN MLG PRO

Posted by: C05ta WiNs93
None of you played halo 2 competitively did you? They are more like combos, they are not cheap because everyone can do them.


As a person who played both for MLG as a semi-pro. The competitive landscape for Halo 3 was so much more competitive for the lack of cheap tactics, that took no skill. Trust me, I couldn't even superjump in Halo 2, but I could BXR and Double shot like no other, after a day of learning it. It doesn't take any skill.

You say its like a button combo? That would be like in Street Fighter having half the competitive landscape that knows a special move that overpowers the rest off the field.

  • 09.11.2009 10:19 PM PDT

this thread is retarded. theyre not "combos." shut up.

  • 09.11.2009 10:50 PM PDT

sometimes i wonder about these posts. why would anyone want a "glitch". and a purposeful glitch is even a glitch anyways

  • 09.11.2009 11:09 PM PDT

Bxr and bxb should come back with the option to be turned on or off
Double shot no. Even as a competitive player i disliked it
To those who say oh no it ruined the game
It just made the game a hell of alot faster
Come on you couldnt simply press BXR or BXB! What are you challenged?
My 2 brothers had no prob doing and they were in elementary at the time
. But to some oh i cant do it thats cheap it ruined the game
Dont say double shot did to because probally like 1 out of the thousands you play can do it

Haha its like gears 2. 2piece is annoying but you gotta live with it
My rant is done

well, you are the first person i have met who actually wants bugs in their game.

ignoring the incorrect use of terms, if you mean you want the gameplay options to have more options for us to customize then i would have to disagree, limits on firing/meleeing speed are put there to insure the game stays fair and balanced, removing those limitations would make the person who could spam faster the winner. such a option would lower the importance of one's playing skills.

games are supposed to be fun and such little tricks make it more annoying, i don't want to win because I practiced using a combo till I was faster at it than anyone else, I wanna win because of my coordination, reflexes and focus.

To clarify things up BXR or BXB is not a glitch or bug. Its simple game commands
Halos reload system is use to cancel any command or animation. Such as you melee and before you hit some and your able to reload it cancels your melee thus no beatdown. Its no bug or glitch. The way bungie fixed it was adding delays with melee, reload and getting rid of the reload command if full. . When your clip was full and you tried to reload but the game realized your full and cancel the attempted reload animation To prove also melee cancels your animation fire a few shot and butterfly which is pressing reload and melee.

To the dude above me who is saying those tricks dont make the game fair or fun. You obviously didnt play halo 2 enough
Superbounces and standbying didnt make it fair or fun
Think about it. BXR was my close range tactic but you had to superbounce to win the game with your reflexes or focus

it would be cool if they could be toggled on and off. in matchmaking they could have it so they are switched off for most playlists like team slayer, skirmish, rumble pit etc. Assuming there is an MLG playlist, it could be cool to let them decide if they want button glitches or not. To me it would add a little more flare to the MLG playlist. Then again, I would also like a lot more weapons that could be a possible substitute for the battle rifle, not totally replacing it.
