Glitch?

Post by Jdg50 »

So I was playing online and I was in the second turret of the ATAT. (The cannon) and somehow a magnaguard activated his poison and I saw the effect around my character and accepted that I was about to die. But then something strange happened, my hud dissapeared after I had been posioned for a few seconds, and I was still able to rotate the cannon and kill people. Strange glitch. Eh?

Indeed, it's an odd glitch if the ATAT has a second pilot position.

I'm assuming he means the AT-TE, since he mentioned a MagnaGuard.

Sometimes this happens to me. I apparently die inside a vehicle but stay alive until I get out, and then I die. I think lag may be part of the problem.

How could lag be a part of the problem when I could still kill others inside the tank?

Anyone in a turret or vehicle does not die from damage-over-time attacks. Their health will be reduced, and if the attack has reduced their health to zero, they will die as soon as they get out of the vehicle/turret, but not before. It's not a strictly online phenomenon, it's part of the game (I'm sure it's unintentional, but it's definitely there everywhere).

I see it all the time. Another thing like this, activate the invincible cheat, then get in a shuttle/gunship. Load it up, get all the slots loaded. Then fly to the edge of the map, let it tell you your out of the map, wait till you hear a bunch of screams. then land. A bunch a of dead troops fall out :shock:

Sniping isn't a death-over-time kind of thing; you should've just died immediately. I know it's perfectly possible to shoot people off staps.

You can induce that by using Fake Console. Go into freecam mode, then go back to chase cam.

Speaking of shooting people out of things, is it me or is it not possible to get someone in the 2nd position of an ATTE out by shooting their exposed body?

yeah, that happened to me in the PS2, Xbox, and PC version (guess it's an universal glitch :P)

@Darth_Spiderpig: Did you get my PM to you from some time ago? If you did, could you try sending the screens to ANDE? (He wanted to talk to you directly about it)
