Seems that using terrain and buildings for cover in pvp is an exploit, strange rules for the new FPS playstyle.

lol hell i thought it was called tactics. I really do laugh at the bullcrap that keep posting. Then i sit back and laugh even harder to know that SOE is a pathetic company. I mean come on now, an exploit by using trees and hills lmao.
1 word describes SOE === PATHETIC
I guess that the csrs have never been under fire in combat, played paintball or just done anything except drink $oe's kool aid over there. I say duck and cover .

ROFL !!!!
i wonder if the remaining and new players needed 'till now to find out to hide behind buildings or use terrain in a TACTICAL shooter !!!
bah ! counter strike - full of exploiters !
i am obviosly old school- for me tactical doesn't mean frantically hitting the mouse button ( nor holding it down or or frantically running circles or whatsoever )
- but its so more tactical now !! SOE can solve this problem in letting vanish terrain and buildings when pvp'ing - back to the roots .
ps: thx for posting this ! it is so funny- absurd !!
pps: read it again, it sounds like : ....using your brain may cause strict disciplinary actions ....
What the CRS answer should be is:
" please don't use/misuse the gazillion bugs out there cuz' we don't know how to remove them".
Unaware of the Jestor?

Amazing.
And if i recall correctly, in the tutorial newbie start, when you encounter Han Solo and the first stormtroopers he INVITES YOU TO TAKE COVER BEHIND SOME CRATES.
So.. now Han was inviting players to exploits? well... he would be up to it for sure
"If you give a man a fish, you feed him for a day, if you teach him how to fish, you feed him for a lifetime"
It has taken a while, but, I have seen the light .......
$OE should not be in the gaming business ....
It seems that they not only have destroyed EQ, EQ2, SWG, Matrix, and Planetside to a shadow of what they once were, but they also can not figure out or at least fail to understand that when running, ducking, using the terrain and other obsticles to your advantage is tactics.
I'm truly amazed that this CSR is so clueless they he doesn't even realize that $OE did away with shooting THRU hills, terrain, trees, and buildings because THAT was deemed an exploit.
I also remember that for years everyone could assign other people access rights to thier harvestors. Then one day $OE called that an exploit too.
This company needs to just go away.

Well he IS a smuggler.... and withthe A-Team style of bunplay he uses in the films he's probably warning you to take cover from his blaster bolts.
Man, just when you think they can't get any dumber, SOE kills another million braincells and sets a new low.
How can these people be so stupid and yet still manage to breath without prompt cards?
I am actually speechless on that one. Wow.
All I can picture is some guy loafing back in his chair eating a trial sized bag of cool ranch doritos and typing this warning in. He's never played the game, thinks gaming is a waste of time, and doesn't want to be there working for minimum wage anyway.
Yeah, SOE Customer Service - THE shining model of contempt and disorder.

DAMN!
SOE knows what you like... You don't!
And don't forget... I am forcing you to read this!
Okay, this one calls for a trip to the kitchen for a Mallomar. Something this silly requires sugar and fat.
Right, back with the cookie and some comment.
1) Not ducking behind a tree or building to evade fire in an FPS is stupid. Calling lack of stupidity an exploit? Universally stupid.
2) The screenshot of the CSR response removed any doubt in my mind that CSR has been outsourced to a non English speaking country. That CSR's first language is not English. And if he's getting paid American minimum wage, I'll be mighty surprised. Just another example of senseless expense-cutting at the price of value to the customer.
3) No, the Matrix was a steaming pile of mess before SOE got ahold of it, it's true. However, SOE is in the process of messing it up even further in the same ways they messed up SWG. Latest word from the Matrix front is that they're still working up a half-assed MxO CU, but not doing anything to bring things like stat-affecting clothing into step with the changes they are working on until far later.
And they've openly admitted they don't know what to do with these things and will most likely just either nullify them or leave them hanging broken when they finally DO decide to look at the issues these things present to their players' gameplay. Sound kinda familiar, folks?
Add to this the reports from MxO players that events, the one single thing that kept MxO players interested and passionate, have been pared down to more or less nonexistance. Now think about this. SOE buys a tanking game, starts half-assedly tinkering with its combat system, adds nothing new to it and then strips off the only thing that the original game producers did well. While you can't blame SOE for the game's initial state of messiness, you can't ignore that they're adding insult to the original company's injury to the customers.
Dunno, but from where I stand, this view is looking kinda deja-vu-ish.

Wow, that's just stunningly stupid. I guess this means collision detection is now officially off the patch plan.
