Glitches, cheats and strange stuff

[Twatybollocks]

Ever seen something weird in CS, convinced someone has been cheating or have taken advantage of a strange quirk in a level?

The other night I saw something very weird on the CS_Italy map. I was a CT, went down the street and the jumped up the logs to get through the window. I was scouting around the rooms when suddenly one of the wardrobes exploded and I was shot by a terrorist which appeared from no-where!

I spectated for a bit and watched him in action. He went to the other wardrobe, jumped on it and slipped down the back. Instead of looking at a piece of wood, he could see through the wardrobe and pulled the same trick on another player.

Is this a cheat? I've tried doing the same thing and it doesn't seem possible.

Glitch, you should report it to valve t�bh (unless you want to do it yourself :p)

I saw some guy who "speed hacked" without cheating. Now CS:S lag compensation is a bit extreme. He just clogged up his network when he wanted to go fast, paused for a second, and freed up his network-and went flying, like out of a catapult. I'm not sure how it works but he hit the building in front of him, went flying up into the air and landed on top of it.

He still got owned and kickbanned :p

I've seen a screenshot of a wallhack and basically it sticks all of the player models on top of everything else-so no matter where you are you can see the player models almost on their own dimension.

Some guy was using one. We could tell this because he started shooting at a wall. An unshootable wall. We couldn't see why- the death cam was restricted to first person. He typed "wtf why won't you die?" and suddenly we realised-this guy was behind the wall, but because the playermodels were on top of everything for him, he thought he was in front of the wall! :D

is that on source? i do that on italy but in the room with the hostages, shoot the radio and hop onto the desk it was on and duck. it looks like ur hiding under it and quite hard to spot.

quite a cool bug, it works on office too when u hide in a plant.

strange bugs that iv seen? just being able to fit in tiny spaces really, like being able to fit behind an open door. where the gap between it and the wall is about half the width of the player.

I saw that speed hack last night. It seemed more trouble than it was worth to me though as he usually got wasted when he was stood still building up some speed.

The wall hack cheats really peeee me off! It's so obvious as well because they jump around a corner or a door and kill you with one shot, but when you watch them they don't jump around areas where there isn't anyone hiding - GRRRRRR!

A nice tip (glitch maybe?) on the Dust levels if you are a terrorist is to shoot the barrells until they cover the bomb. This can give you a few extra seconds and I've seen it totally stump a few players.

BTW - I hear there is a new update due out today with a new level!

If you've ever played rox_dust_tower (great, great map), if you time a jump as you go up the "speed ramp" perfectly you can go absolutely flying-don't hit the tower or you'll go too high, but avoid it and you can end up behind the enemy spawn, where there are probably snipe campers who didn't see you woosh past and you can get behind everyone :D I took out an entire 10 player team doing this. Fun fun.

Ohh I love doing that barrel over the bomb in dust, its quite amusing watching it stump a whole team of cts, who had no idea where the bomb was and then started throwing abuse at you because they couldnt find it, some people really dont look properly before they cry haxxor at you, you would have thought a a barrel which flashes red in time with the bomb would give it away wouldnt you.
But there are actually quite a few annoying bugs in CS:S but I suppose we can forgive valve, for their new patch today, and VAC coming soon, huzzah I dont have to arse about with my computer to play a game anymore, damn you punkbuster and damn you game developers who dont make their own anti-cheat systems!

Another tip - You can jump on the Exit sign in CS_Office. Just jump over the railings onto the top box. Position yourself towards the right side of it and jump. Takes a few goes to perfect (so try it in single player mode first) but then it becomes easy. Then shoot away at anyone who comes past as they usually do not think to look up there!

Only problem with this is if the Terrorists head that way from the start, as they can get there the same time as you so it's only really useful for later on in a round or if they all go the other way.

Looks like last night's update was only for Half Life with the CS one due sometime next week :-(

Cool things in CS: (not all glitches, just some things you may not've noticed)... be warned, some of them are illegal and could get you kickbanned from that server (although none of them will get you a steam ban.)

In cs_italy, from inside the house, if you get someone to let you stand on their head on the table with bottles on, and they jump up and down a few times, you go through the roof and into the little compound above it (letting you shoot the terrorists)

In cs_assault, if you face the front door on the top floor, get someone to do the same thing in the front left corner, you go through the roof (do with awp at the start of the round and kill about 5 people :D)

in cs_office in T spawn, if you look through the window, you see some pretty cool and amusing banners. Also, if you're by the windows, go to the far left of T spawn, just after the second hostage room, go to the middle of the wall and spray it. A load of bricks get blown apart and you see a banner about the author.

On cs_assault, on top of CT tower, if you get someone to boost you, you can skywalk

On de_dust, if you get someone to boost you on top of the box just inside CT spawn, you can skywalk.

On de_dust2, when you're dead, if you go inside the walls by A bombsite/mid, you get a banner about the author.

On de_dust2, if you spawn at a certain time, pick terrorist, it'll give you the "choose team" menu again. Hit spectator, and you'll be playing, start off in spawn for the buy time, but BUY QUICKLY, every few seconds you'll be placed at a different location throughout the map (when you start up the map normally, it's the places you're taken to as a spec, top of A bombsite, top of the window outside B bombsite and somewhere else). It's like a teleport.

And on what twatybollocks was saying

Nice places you can camp/spam people they wont expect:

On de_dust2, at T spawn (first make sure there's no CT AWP'er), jump on the low wall that goes into the dark patch to mid, and you can jump onto the little arch above mid and shoot people as they go past.

Same place ish, go slightly towards B from T spawn, if you get someone to boost you onto the box on the right, duck-jump onto the archway over T spawn (this only works if the bomb is going B really), and as the CTs run from A to get to the bomb, shoot them as they go under you. As CT, you can also do this on mid doors. Doesn't work too well if they 'nade it mind...

Good spam spots in de_dust2, when you go into B tunnels, spam just after the curve in the wall/into the crevice as CT, there's always a n00b CT sitting there/people running down from T spawn. The strangest one, in A bombsite, if you spam the wall directly oposite (leading down to long), if you stand by the green boxes at A and aim slightly below horizontal, you can spam T's coming A, and you can do the same as T from the oposite end.

cs_assault "wallhack": from CT spawn, if you can see the building buy an awp, on 800x600, double zoom, count 8 rivets from the left, aim two centimeters up the second the round starts, fire and you'll kill whoever spawned there. I get accused of hacking for that one every time. Also, on the bridge, you can hear people using the cameras, spam the building and you can kill them.

I know so many more it's rediculous, but you're probably bored by now, so I'll shh :)
