I just came back from a ctf game a few min ago...and someone was using shadow dance carrying a flag run through the wall:/ ppl are taking advantage of it. Sorry it happened too fast and I couldn't take a screenshot, but he used this tactic twice to run away when low health
So they just Shadow Danced their way out? Nice! Did they just use the skill or something more complex?
No, just shadow dance and he's carrying a flag... Walk through the wall:/
Werent you in the previous game when I mentioned this out load that your teammate was doing this ... I thing you said it was lag.
Awesome strategy!
First, you weren't in that game, the game you're talking about was 1-2 hours ago.Quote:

Thanks for reporting this. I'll include this in my report.
Geez why in red. Look you misinterpreted my comments; I have no bone to pick with you or any of your Inslavers, or to start one. If i did, I might have even made my post in a different colour too. In fact I have many in your guild that I can trust and have friendships with. I'm not here to play Dark Legends to start any drama, but as a means of just relaxing and having fun; one of my guild rules is that we do not like drama.Quote:

This is what I recall seeing: your teammate carrying the flag stopped in front of my base door, I attack him and nothing happen, and next thing the system says you team score point while that said teammate was still there frozen with the flag in front of me, lol ... bear in mind that as this is happening other people are moving about on the map.
I'm sorry (yes I'm apologizing) if you think that I have criticized your teammate or your guild.
Sadly what makes ctf enjoyable, also makes it frustrating. People take games too competitively. I always approach it was a win some, lose some mentality. Heck even if I lose I try to say "gg", unless I accidentally hit leave button/
Delphina, are u saying u guys don't know about this? It's been going on from day 1. Lol. Ive done it a few times myself. It's not a bug it's because of lag. When the person is carrying the flag has a ping spike it looks like they're going through walls when the spike goes back down and everything catches up. :)Quote:

I don't think you can control lag, and the way the game runs may make it difficult to fix it. Only thing I can imagine is instantly getting instantly disconnected from the server once ping hits a certain point...
well that's not good. I'll add a bug in the system and see if I can get a fix in ASAP. Should have a few cycles after finishing up this new content for you guys :vsmile:

Its very mature of you and you have definitely gained my respect ("great" people - like those who unfairly accused sun light of being a smart alec - could learn a lot from you). Unfortunately, the dramatic have a way of making great drama - even to the point of terminating alliances and publicizing it. This Donkey says, "pfffffft, whatever".
Well, I'm not talking about lag... It's shadow dance through the void and Sam wasn't in that game:/ you can see the purple line at the back of a person doing shadow dance...and that line was crossing the wall? Idk how to explain lol but I've never seen that before? And my ping was really low and everything was moving smoothly:/Quote:

Next thing you know, they stop lagging and the server updates their position - either the toon teleports to the final position instantly or they fly thru walls.Quote:

In your case, it could well be that the flag carrier was lagging and stopped lagging just at the point he/she executed SD (either that or the trail you saw was just the flag trail as it flies thru walls). This then caused you to see him/her fly into the void escaping from you. Trust me, you will see more of this.
Separately, on the guild thing/drama. Chillax - I've got nothing against your guild (and I don't think a lot of people do), in fact some of them are very nice people. However there are others that are cocky as hell, lack sportsmanship and humility. But I'm sure such people are everywhere - thing is, everything a guild member does reflects on the guild.
Donkey made the best posts I ever saw in this thread. Long but still enough to get me reading with good info :')
I think this one. carrier going truo walls is the same as teleporting.
I played ctf last time. And my opponent told "omg teleporter. Wtf".
