Superman Exploit aka Fire and see through any wall
Acknowledged, WishlistPublic

Description

Player is able to see and in some case fire through the walls. As i tested it depends on the thickness of the wall. If the wall is too thick the the player is unable to fire through it.

When i mention fire through it, i mean it is able to fire without wall penetration. Basically the bullet appear in or behind the wall and that is why the player is able to shoot through it.

There is two way to do this hack/cheat. See the steps to reproduce section.

Steps To Reproduce

A. with rifle or pistol

  1. Select rifle, do not lower it!
  2. Go to crouched position
  3. Move close to the wall
  4. Be parallel with the wall
  5. Lean to the side where the wall is (double tap Q or E)
  6. Strafe to the wall direction

You will see through the wall and some cases you are able to shoot or throw grenade to the other side of the wall. It is really funny if you are in the building and shooting out.

B. without weapon

  1. drop every weapon what you have
  2. stand up
  3. run/sprint to the wall

Gamermanas made a simple script which black out the view if the player try to use this glich exploit.

I think this similar fix is a welcome solution in the vanilla game too.

this + 3rd person and you have no clue who shooted you.

should i make a video private too? have you watched it?

Hey,
thanks for the report, I made it private already.

Are you planning to fix this? This is a public issue and i have seen that many times in the KotH servers.

It has been acknowledged and the dev team is aware of it.

Have you seen the Glitch fix video? http://youtu.be/kynv_woKPTo?t=1m54s
I think as a first iteration(hotfix) it would be enough.
