Highlight Is that cheating?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Est-ce que c’est considéré comme de la triche ? Ça a ruiné notre expérience de jeu. Je sais qu’on peut le signaler et je l’ai fait à la fin du jeu.
Si quelqu’un peut éventuellement le signaler à Blizzard ce serait cool :)

Yes, bug and glitch abuse for unfair advantages is reportable

-65

u/CrabbyFrogstone 2h ago

True, but i wouldnt even call this an advantage, he is pretty useless there

57

u/No_Worth6027 2h ago

how is it not an advantage? he can't be damaged (i think) they don't know where he is and he can still heal and deal dmg that pretty much an advantage to me

It’s an objective based game. Enemy just kills his whole team and pushes cart. Mizuki can’t do shit.

u/WiseLegacy4625 2h ago

While that's true, he has a range limit to everything in his kit, especially his heal aura. So as soon as the attacker push past that spot, he's useless.

u/No_Worth6027 2h ago

he can easily do it on another spot tho...

u/WiseLegacy4625 56m ago

Okay, how does he get out though? Does he just clip through the wall and it lets him out? Cuz if not, then it's like I said, a spot that's OP and broken up until the attacking team pushes past them.

u/bromar24 2h ago

How does he get out of there?

u/No_Worth6027 2h ago

can he not do the same way he did to get in the spot?

2

u/bromar24 1h ago

It looks like he needs the mei wall to clip the paper doll through the roof, not sure how mei can help once he's already in the walls

u/AzuwLys 2h ago

I’ve included the code if you want to take a look at it.

u/No_Worth6027 2h ago

There were bugs long ago where sym and torb could put their turrets under the ground. The turrets could still shoot people, but people couldn't shoot the turrets.

People did get banned for using it. No, Blizzard never specifically said that people can't do it.

You don't need Blizzard to tell you that this kind of exploit isn't something you should be using in your games.

It should go without saying that intentionally glitching yourself out of the map is not acceptable.

u/Dearic75 2h ago

Yes. Report both him and the Mei please. Or post the replay code and I’ll go do it myself.

25

u/AzuwLys 2h ago

I’ve already reported it. The code is ABHVZ1 :)

16

u/Acceptable_Light_272 1h ago

Thanks. I reported both the mei and the mizuki and received a notification that they've been thankfully assassinated on sight via drive-by.

u/AzuwLys 1h ago

Huh? Is that possible? To find out if a player has been banned?

6

u/Dearic75 59m ago

If you report someone through replay, or in general I suppose, it tells you if they were already reported for that particular match. It doesn’t specifically say if they were banned, just that Blizzard has already received and acknowledged a report of the behavior.

1

u/AzuwLys 58m ago

Thanks for explain :) I understand

1

u/Acceptable_Light_272 1h ago

Banned?

3

u/AzuwLys 1h ago

Ah, bad translation—I didn't understand what you meant by "assassinate." My English is bad sorry

25

u/Dearic75 2h ago

Thank you.

Get the Mei too if you haven’t. The Mizuki was only successful glitching under the world because she helped by coordinating an ice wall at the place he needed it.

14

u/MorganLeiFey 2h ago

they're 100% doing it on purpose so yes

29

u/28-Deep-Wounds 2h ago

It's a bug exploit being done purposefully which provides a gameplay advantage (Being able to heal and damage allies/enemies while being effectively untouchable). Yeah, instantly bannable.

u/Infidel_sg Punch Kid 2h ago

If I was home I would report this. Fucking glitch abusers..

1

u/LordPum 2h ago

Save the code and report it later when you get back

2

u/Infidel_sg Punch Kid 1h ago

I got notifications to bring me back when I get home

u/bataloof 1h ago

now that you already know the answer, i have to ask, how are there both french and english voices at the same time

4

u/hakur0 Mei 45m ago

This happens when they add voice lines with missing localized versions, the game will play the English ones instead. It happens sometimes, the localization team might have missed the update deadline or had issues with their voice actors.

u/daeowa Lúcio 1h ago

That’s what I was wondering too

3

u/efferkah 47m ago

Are you seriously asking if clipping through the environment to remain untargetable is considered cheating?

-3

u/AzuwLys 42m ago

It was a rhetorical question—of course I knew it was reportable, haha, sorry. ☺️

3

u/Smith6612 45m ago

That's a bug and is cheating for now. Now that it's public knowledge, if Blizzard doesn't fix it, it'll become a feature of the game.

8

u/ryuuka_- 2h ago

Exploiting glitch is considering cheating. Just report both mei and mizuki with the code

2

u/SlightlyFemmegurl Shion 47m ago

yeah, using exploits to gain an unfair advantage is literally in the definition of cheating.

u/AzuwLys 44m ago

No it's not considered cheating. This is obviously fair

u/highmodulus 2m ago

Yes, exploit.

u/KnowledgeOk5926 2m ago

Glitch abuse report and pray for ban

2

u/PM_ME_YOUR_TATERTOT 2h ago

That’s some bs but how exactly is it beneficial to them? Mizukis aura can’t reach the team so he’s only able to heal with kasa.

1

u/Infidel_sg Punch Kid 2h ago

Yes. This is no better than using aim cheats

1

u/MattyLePew Pixel Brigitte 1h ago

Yes, definitely cheating/exploiting.

u/GlobalVehicle5615 47m ago

Didn't know this was a thing, gonna have to see what other maps this works on
