There may be some who dont know what im talking about but near blue base theres that rock that sticks out on the right side of the map (From blue base point of veiw). People have called it the "Tower". Is it considered cheating if you go up there and snipe?

my veiw on cheating

If you don't want it to happen, say that it's illegal BEFORE the game. it's only cheating if it was made illegal before the game, and then someone did it anyway. otherwise, anythings legal.

the tower is a good camping spot, but it's so easy to get hit up there. that's why i don't go up there.

No im saying I GO up there. I dont think its easy to get killed. You get a whole veiw and I keep a close gard on where there sniper is.

yeah, but if you were truely good, then you'd be able to get the sniper, then snipe a guy out of the tower. i also know how to go up there, and out of the map from there. that's a better sniping spot.

i never understand people and sniping spots, its simple if you want to sniper people you constantly move constantly change your secondary weapon and whilst moving sniper people. its not so hard to multi task and if people go and stand on that little tower and cant move to dodge bullets its simple as a head shot and no wasting of the second bullet save it for a better player.

if your physically able to do something in a video game that dosent involve codes or mods, i dont consider it cheating. I had ppl call me a cheater for hiding in the rock in blood gultch and shooting with rockets. its cheap, yes. but its not cheating

Out of Map = Exploitation of game Physics = Cheating

BUT Sniper Rock is perfectly acceptable.

The only thing I consider cheating in sky walking....but its funny when somebody does then runs out of ammo. When they get down keep them down. By the way...how do you get into the rock..i have tried many ways just to come up unsucessful. {:()

Go to Haloibonk.com and there should be a vid on how to get up there. It took me over a few weeks to get used to it, now I can get up there in one try. And if you are on the highest textured point on the map...thats not off the map.

Yes there are many. And if you keep a close gard on the sniper and make sure no one gets it then theres no one to shoot you with it.

But if you have to leave the map to get there, it is cheating..

i think if it is in the game and you do it w/o some extrodinary manuvers then it should be perfectly legal...it may be a damned annoying strategy,but cmon, if you know what they are doin avoid em til you got a good counter stategy, then kill them...no since in flamin em cuz they got sumthin goin for em...and if your a "damn those campers" type...wtf...if you know where the camper is kill them...and stop your whining...it makes you look like a n00b.

It's not cheating, getting out of the map isnt cheating. It's extremely close, if not on the line, to cheating, but still, i dont think it is.



It's all fun and games until someone gets blown up by a grenade~!
