Why the ShadowShot exploit is not cheating. [READ]

So... Some lame click-bait youtuber actually posted a glitch that worked. (For Once, and let's not point out names *Cough* DPJ, *Cough* WillisGaming) But for real this glitch is deadly in PVP and it's an unfair advantage for sure. However, it's not cheating because it isn't hacking into the game. It's just a simple petty development mistake made by Bungie. So I'm glad people are spamming videos because first off, it's getting out there, for sure bungie is aware of this now, because of the amount of moans, whines from 10 year olds or very ignorant adults that have no life what-so-ever (Yes, come at me) Imagine if one little group used this glitch and no one else knew how to do it? Wouldn't that be annoying? Then the problem would take twice as long to get through to Bungie to fix. What the community needs to do now, it's to sit down, relax, and play the game. I think Bungie have enough people on their backs right now. If you're that annoyed about it, it's simple, don't play crucible until you know it's fixed. Don't bother creating these click-bait posts or videos complaining when there is a lot of other game modes to play. Leading onto that, Trials and Iron Banner. Don't worry. They'll fix it before Friday and everyone can go back to playing this game, and just watching the clock tick by and waiting for something else to whine and complain about, to gain a bit of good ol' attention. Well, thanks for reading if you actually had the time to read all of this. Sorry if I came across a bit salty. Some people on the forums just need to relax and play the game and become more positive. Nevertheless, have a great evening if you're from the U.K like me. Hope you're having a nice afternoon all Americans. Also, Good Morning Australians. Thanks, Jack

  • It's an exploit, AKA a cheat.

  • I see what you are getting at, but it's exploiting something broken in the game to give you an unfair advantage. It's cheating. Just like the infinite hammers was cheating.

    • Umm who said cheating is JUST HACKING?! I dont think you know what cheating is but you said it in your post. Cheating is having an UNFAIR advantage. That is exactly what this unlimited shadow shot. Dumb. Muted.

    • You can't be more wrong bungie just canceled trials which I was really excited about. They flat out said this exploit is the reason trials have been canceled...

        It is not a glitch it is an exploit first get that right.. the two are not the same. secondly you have to do specific things with specific armor worn for it to work so is not done as an accident ever. so is done on purpose when is not meant to be done and thus is a cheat and thus is wrong. cheating is not just done by hacking dipshit...

        Are you trying to justify cheating?

      • Wait did you you say exploiting and cheating are not the same. Thats like playing roulette and always betting on the black 5 because a tilt in the machine puts it there. The game wasn't designed for hunters to have unlimited bowshots. Quit whining.

      • It is at the least abusing an exploit. But thwle funny part is how most SB threads stopped from being created.

      • LOL i dont know why everyones whining about this glitch. I didnt hear this many people whining about the sunbreaker glitch where he could throw hammers twice as fast. Also if you don't like hunters abusing this glitch, stop playing crucible then. You guys are just getting overly butthurt at this point

          • It not cheating its called exploiting the game which is toxic to the community and causes unfair advantages similar to cheating

          • Man, you try to make it sound like it isn't cheating, but it is. It is an unfair advantage by exploiting a glitch in the system. I haven't seen many people do it but it completely locks down any zone and it can kill people. It's like a bubble train but with out a team effort to do it.

            • So it's not cheating if it's an unfair advantage/exploit/bug abuse etc etc Simply because it's something that's in the game? You're special, very verrrryyyyy special. Don't let the other kids say other wise

            • It's not Cheating it's exploiting a glitch within a system to gain a competitive edge over you're opponents. [spoiler]why you always lying?[/spoiler]
