donut mention the netcoke

It's sponge having fun while sitting bored, waiting for Skyrim to load.

Happens like once in a blue moon

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_moon

like grappling gun, id semi implemented the forcefield defence mechanism (special ability). Perhaps they accidentally tweaked it with the steam release and now it activates sometimes?

it is strongly probable that it is caused at specific spots and its mapper's faults.

Actually this bug didn't occur in Q3.

Invisible obstacles, grenades bouncing on enemies, 0 dmg rockets and wtf-sounds are all QL exclusive.

Those are features!

:)

There's a point on hub3aeroq3 where it can happen, it's around the 25HP bubble near the jump pad up to upper rockets.
0 damage rockets happened in ESWC 2005 to fox in OSP ( I might be wrong here, but it's definitely not new phenomena ).

So it would be a map-related problem for the SG after all? I was under the impression that it was due to the fragged corpses who can sometimes block the pellets (even when said corpses have already vanished a few seconds ago).

When I said 0 dmg rockets, I had the infamous stair bug in mind, which clearly doesn't exist in Q3 - at least not in OSP. IIRC you're talking about a fox vs cooller game on dm13 and the conclusion was that fox misjudged cooller's stack.

My memory of the fox thing is hazy but I recall him hitting direct rockets and them doing no damage, at least from descriptions I remember.
And yes the shot stuff is definitely map related, you could hit yourself in the face with rockets on that spot in hub3aeroq3.

>>"hit yourself in the face with rocket"
Are you sure mate? :D

Yes, Cymozz(I think that's his name) had a video of it on the promode forums, it's probably somewhere on youtube.

blue bug? :D sure as hell happened

I'm not old school enough for this one :)

Perhaps the culprit was the mod or the version used? I really don't remember experiencing those bugs or even hearing people complaining about them in Q3 1.32/OSP/RA3.

Afaik it was on an older point release of Q3.

no, not a mods fault eventhough it resulted in the comp scene switching to OSP.

it was a us player knowingly exploiting a maxfps setting of 999 which resulted in his own hitbox not registering hits. [9]Blue, europe's strongest player at this point, therefore lost to this guy at either a WCG or a CPL.

This happened again just few minutes ago, in duel @ aerowalk. SG pellets hit the air right in front of me and enemy saw that either and confirmed afterwards

if it just happened, do you have a demo we could analyse?

Oh I should have guessed to provide demo instantly... But it was yesterday and I'm too busy working now. =(
But I'm sure I got this demo (i got all of them, autorecorded) and will try to make a vid shortly for everyone to see what am I talking about.

I never noticed this bug. Can't even believe it.

Shit's hot on purgatory, sg and yellow spot near the railgun.

50 bubble near battle suit, at the gate between red and jumppad for me mostly on purga

sometimes dm20 lg area iirc?

I-it-it's like we played the same game : 3 :

Thats what I mean! Magic defense forcefield =)))

And bots can walk off spawn platforms on eye2eye floating in the air.

Top priority bug right here...

That's a feature. There's botclip added so they can go to the mid. Otherwise they would be stuck or fall in lava.

Considering the circumstances what you say might actually be true.

spidercrossings is full of invisible obstacles everywhere

Two times i can specifically remember having this bug is shooting from sg towards yellow and seeing the hit marks around the ark in between

Not sure if this is fixed:

dm20, walking from lower LG up the stairs towards LG, trying to shoot enemy who is picking up shards/YA from below,
there is a point where if some of pellets hit that wall none of them pass.
