In various tower attacks today all of the sudden you would be slammed with the old audio from an Amp Station capture. And it wasnt after you did a cap - it was during the battle.

Its really loud makes no sense and is generally unpleasant.

My guess is a programmer misplaced an audio pointer for console hacks so everyone hears OMG BASE CAPPING every time an infiltrator turns a console.

Not just that, but every time a console changes from one side to the other for any reason, it goes all casino jackpot on us.

Infiltrator hacked your terminal... BWOOOOOSH!

I get out my rocket launcher and destroy the offending terminal... BWOOOOOSH!

Thank God we have a test server, if some of these bugs made it to the live servers it would be ridiculous.

More annoying than the music, I find are the balls of light that appear all over the place... and the excruciatingly slow cap times?

Noticed it as well. Maybe...maybe it's the VS summoning their Alien Masters back into this world...

All those. At once. Guess what we had at Crux Headquarters. I was TR fighting NC, and they kept hacking our Terminals.

I was on Point A for ages because of the cap times, couldn't hear for shit because of the noise and almost got gunned down by my allies several times because they thought I was NC. Because of that Darn blue light.


SOE PLEASE. :(

I think its kind of a fun bug. Something to talk about a year down the line.

Blue balls everywhere!!! Some dev's idea of a belated april fools joke?

Not only are there audio and visual oddities, but terminals do not necessarily display the correct faction when you take over a control point or after a hack. Rashnu had zero control points to take over this morning. Both outlying and internal control points.

Gotta admit, the Bastion going all Old Testament made it a bit hard to fight. Until someone yelled "LET MAH PEOPLE GO".

Yea, I feel the same way about these bugs. Kinda like the silly arms waving around for no reason we had a few months ago.

I'm actually really sad they fixed that one. RIP Crazy Legs.

Has somebody actually gotten in to server to see if they fixed this problem? For me it's the same old story of not getting to play. Damn these patches and the problems they cause.

Heh, you a TF2 veteran? :cool:

I remember the Betamaxes which just floated around like a Boss. Or, even better, Chillax Mode. I'm still waiting for Chillax mode to be put on sale for Station Cash. SOE could make money with that.

YES! We must collect them all.

Add cloaking Galaxies to the list for now, that's a fun bug if I ever saw one.

Where was that video which included a twitching corpse with music?

Grenades.... back when you would visually throw it on your screen and see where it was only for the grenade to really explode at your feet killing you and anyone around you.

That was a super annoying bug haha.

That was a really horrible one. Let's see if we can think of any others.

There have been a few good bugs, crazy legs and suprise nades being a few but so far my all time favourite has been land shark maxes, when a max dies gets rezzed and is halfway through the floor but still upright on his screen. The best is when they charge and you just see this thing zoom forward and a bunch of stuff die.

Oh God. I don't remember those, but I remember Zombie Humans that still look dead (and able to get up if they accept the revive) but are in fact already revived and can move around and stuff. Same Creepy, but less scary.

At least you can shoot those. The MAX shoots you first.

EDIT: I remember a good bug! MASS DORITOS!
