Thread: Finally quit smoking! YAAAY

MY THEORY (on losing tank):


Infected player sees message 'you will become tank.' He's a ghost, about to spawn. He chooses to spawn immediately so that they have an extra infected on the field. He waits (on accident, not on purpose) until -right- when the game is switching him to control the tank--but, he clicks the spawn button right then. Thus, it is 'overridden,' and he stays as regular infected.

For finales, since you don't wander around as a ghost, I believe it's the same thing--just shitty timing as you are spawning as your normal infected.



And superdink, please don't spread false information without clarifying. It has been patched (on PC). You can no longer hit items to reset frustration meter. However, on xBox live (AFAIK), there have been no patches at all.

360 has been patched the same as pc...im not sure wat refills the frustration meter...but im sure i managed it with a car

Ah... when did you guys get your patch? I remember hearing complaining when the big update on PC came out.

I think weve had it for a couple of weeks now and now complaints for me...for the most part

xbox has been patched about 2 weeks now or so... perhaps more research into this exploit will yield the proper anwser Any more ideas guys?

my idea, either like people have said, there's a place to park the tank where the AI gets stuck, or it got stuck on accident and the infected team took advantage of it. i've seen the tank get stuck in co-op mode, and then you get a free kill. seems likely that this could happen in vs. i would guess it was a glitch since if there were an actual spot to park the tank and consistently get it stuck, the infected team would do this all the time. also i've had the tank not spawn in co-op but you still hear it. eventually you have to die in order to restart.

I know that the humans arent constantly in control becoz, at the time, there was only two of them and we killed both curing the problem...also, i asked about it and they said it glitched and i believe them...i reckon its just a thing...

That is why I had to ask.

Really? I'm about 99% sure I've still been able to refill the timer by hitting cars and regular infected. That's weird.

i have not ran into any pc version glitches lol
