Forums - Microsoft Discussion - Gears of war 21full of glitches!!!

jasonnc80 on 23 October 2008

After looking into it more (ie: 10 minutes of actual research)..

It appears that most if not all of these were lagswitch induced glitches which can be done with almost any online host-enabled game. It's not a product of the game itself but outside interference.  I've ran into one of two on Halo 3.

Your earning a reputation of only posting anti-360 flame/trollbait on the 360 forums for no good reason. I suggest you stop with the useless topics unless you want a one-way ticket to banland.

 

you are not allowed to tell him what he should or should not post as long as he is not offending or trolling(which in this case is neither),,,,,it's a website reporting not him,,,he is just posting a news ,,,,unless you just want to see bad topics for sony and censor everything that's bad for Microsoft .In that case we should really be talking to DKII or other mods about this kind of behaviour from a mod.

I haven't seen any of the mods warning poepole when the post bad stuff for PS3/sony,,,so this shouldn't be any different.

 

I know you love your console but tha doesn't eman you should dictate to people and abuse your power here.

Maybe if you look at the guys post history and see that a majority of what he's been doing since he joined is post anti-360 & pro-PS3 stuff.  It's obvious that the game is only been available to testers and pirates.  So unless we now take those opinions about a final product as gospel than obviously what he is doing is flamebaiting.

Maybe if people weren't so quick to jump on a mod instead of the people who perpetually troll and post flamebait then we would have more of a healthy discussion and not mindless mud slinging which happens way more than it should.

No idea how posting this is something worth warning. Heck, I don't like PS3's sales number in Japan, does that mean I can report whoever posting Japanese sales figures?

There is a glitch, the guy posted it. there's absolutely nothing wrong with the thread itself. Regardless what the reputation is.

 

I remember the read about R&C demo glitch, funny, nobody was warned in that.

 

Substance. Content is king. Threads lacking content can and will be locked. Some tips to keep you and your posts out of trouble:

  • Do not post just a link. Links have context - expound upon that context. For example, Mario Piano Videos. Post a link, but also give some background on what the link is to, or better yet, comment on how Mario has influenced pop culture. This way, it's not just a link and run. Remember: the reader's interest is not only in the link, its in what you have to say about it, how you make sense of what would otherwise be a blind link (and a subsequent poor thread). The only exception to this rule is for game patches - bearing in mind rule 2, go ahead and get that link posted as fast as possible.

That right there is enough to warrant mod attention. Not to mention the fact with less than 40 posts into his VGChartz tenure and already sparking flamebait and trolling in other threads I don't see how mrstickballs warning is invalid.  He clearly made that a point in his post.  If you can't see the difference in your example and what is done here than I believe I'm done with this conversation.

EDIT: To vlad above...

If it is a pirate (which I assumed at the beginning too) can these copies be played online this early?  I'm honestly curious because there have been multiplayer videos leaked from beta testers as well.

 

I ctually have no idea how and if the 360 games have any DRM and a way for Live to check which game is a copy and which isn't. I also don't know anyone with modded 360s that I could ask for you. I just know games can't be tied to consoles since you should be able to bring just your cd to your friend's house and still play just fine if needed so whatever protection they have should be inherent on the disc.

nothing wrong with the thread, it's the person that posted it. Be is just being an annoying jerk to people in the x360 forum.

Wow, complaining about glitches in a pirated copy of an unreleased game being played on a modded 360?



We don't provide the 'easy to program for' console that they [developers] want, because 'easy to program for' means that anybody will be able to take advantage of pretty much what the hardware can do, so the question is what do you do for the rest of the nine and half years? It's a learning process. - SCEI president Kaz Hirai

It's a virus where you buy it and you play it with your friends and they're like, "Oh my God that's so cool, I'm gonna go buy it." So you stop playing it after two months, but they buy it and they stop playing it after two months but they've showed it to someone else who then go out and buy it and so on. Everyone I know bought one and nobody turns it on. - Epic Games president Mike Capps

We have a real culture of thrift. The goal that I had in bringing a lot of the packaged goods folks into Activision about 10 years ago was to take all the fun out of making video games. - Activision CEO Bobby Kotick

It doesn't matter if the game is pirated or the 360 is modded. The game code does not suddenly change when that happens. If it's pirated then this is the version EVERYONE will be getting on day one as well.

Apparently these glitches were done with a lagswitch which manipulates the host connection to make the game lag & glitch like this. This method could be used with a lot of hosted multiplayer games. It has nothing to do with the actual game.

The video poster admitted it himself in the youtube comments. Other posts elsewhere lead to the same conclusion.

The only one that's not is the weapon slide which apparently was a similar glitch in the first game and isn't really game influencing anyway.
