Shade step glitch | cheating or no?

It is fair game.

152

It is cheating.

I'm still debating with friends about this one. Fans of super smash bros wouldn't call wavedashing a glitch, they would call it skill. But is the shade step glitch the same? What do you think?

  • As a person who runs shadestep, personally I don't think it's cheating, however it gives the player an unfair advantage and should be removed, it's an exploit after all.

  • "I don't like people using this......... it must be a glitch and needs to be removed" - says every whiney bitch.

  • I don't understand why people do it anyway. Shadestep is super effective by itself so using it seems lame but it is what it is. I can't say I wouldn't try it sometimes if I was able to do it consistently.

    • Exploiting a glitch is cheating

    • Exploiting a glitch isn't cheating. However, it's frowned upon and hopefully they patch it soon.

      • Any glitch is a cheat. Cheesing is also a cheat. I report anyone who cheeses a strike.

        • It's like the infinite arrow glitch. Or the infinite hammer throwing spam. Is it a glitch? Yes Will you be banned for it? LOL No Is it considered cheating? Yes Is it unfair? Yes Will people still do it anyways? Hell yes! Will people hate you for using it? Yes Will people make forum posts claiming it's unfair and an abuse of an in game glitch? Yes Will Bungie eventually in the near or far future fix this? Yes Will Bungie do anything to the players who abused it? Lol no So does anyone care? Some yes, some no Will people who use it to get easy kills defend it? Yes Will people that get killed by it want it gone? Yes

        • Wavedashing is definitely a glitch. I've played in tourneys around here for well over a decade, and I don't mean to say I don't do it, but it's definitely just as much a glitch as shadestep shooting XD

          • Exploitation of a glitch is cheating. If the game developers didn't intentionally want it in the game, then the rest of the game isn't properly balanced to accommodate for the glitch.

          • Its kinda cheating but I dont think it give you a UNFAIR advantage like with the bow so who cares? All I see is a hunter hopping like a retarded bunny thinking he has an advantage.

          • Iv personally never figured out how to do it. However I have had someone do it against me and it was pretty much impossible to counter. I probably would class it as cheating.

            I play sweaties with my friends and when I'm against them they do the glitch all the time when they shade step but its not to hard to counter cause they always f*** it up and I kill them, but when they pull it off I guess it could be called cheating.

          • In my opinion, if you have to use button combos and pulling out your ghost and all this stuff to pull it off it's cheating

          • I honestly don't know. I mean, that like quarter of a second difference won't really change the general outcome of a gunfight except in very specific situations.

          • It's taking asvantage of a glitch. I call it cheating, but it would make sense to say something else.
