Titan Item Jumping?

Postby hugenoob » Sun Aug 24, 2014 11:00 pm

Just curious as to why titan's item jumping isn't bannable. Worker stacking is bannable because it's an exploit of the game (or so i've been told) so shouldn't item jumping be bannable as well?

nop sry

Instead of vilifying the Titan, try to understand that Titan needs as much extra help as he can get, since its pretty imbalanced against him as is.

I'm not trying to "vilify" the titan. I mean there's a reason exp, froff and gc exsist.. If he needs that much help those are the options available, shouldn't be able to use an exploit. There's other alternatives to this.

The reason why I didn't make item jumping ban-able is because it can be prevented, and things that can be prevented should not be ban-able.

You mentioned worker stacking, and worker stacking where titan's nukes can't reach is just way too overpowered. Thus, it is deemed ban-able.

When titan asks for EXP/Froff, it means he thinks he can't win without it. That's essentially giving up and asking for easy mode instead of normal. This is not a good substitute for balancing the game.

Thanks for the clarification. Just sucks to have to deal with titans who do it I guess.

Besides what burn wrote, worker-stacking is irritating to everybody with sounds on because it produces a loud noise as the user starts the stack.

The sound (and the message) could possibly be removed.

But... working stacking is kinda lame.

90% of the time its chimeras used to item jump which are destroyable.
That said, item jumping is easily preventable.
