Sammy Sprinkler Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 What you want to see? - Add a rule where you can't put away and take out the Barret M82 to remove the firing cooldown. Why should we add it? - I'm tired of being blasted by a gun that does 1500 damage per shot, and when it's supposed to have a cooldown, people just use an exploit to remove it. It goes against the whole point of having a firing cooldown on the gun and gives an unfair advantage to the user, as if having a 1 shot gun isn't an unfair advantage enough. Honestly, I think this should fall under common sense to not use a bug to get rid of an intentional cooldown, but a lot of people use this glitch anyway. What are the advantages of having this? - Removes the ability for people to negate an intentional cooldown on a 1500 damage gun. Who is it mainly for? - Everyone (with a Barret M82) Links to any content - Clip of this bug working: https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/HzY6akUzeAQCd/d1337fL12lTf?invite=cr-MSxWaGosOTM0Mjk0MjUs Clip of normal Barret M82 cooldown: https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/HzYiJijrk4KbC/d1337q6h4Acx?invite=cr-MSxFNFEsOTM0Mjk0MjUs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dry Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 +support I would find this under to be under exploiting so I feel like its already technically a rule. I would be down for a more clear version but if I was to handle a sit like this I would run it under exploiting. It would also be another hard one to prove tbh.

I Agree with dry, exploits of any kinda have always and will stay against the rules. though more clarification with this would be nice to have both to clarify to other players and to assist in enforcing it in staff situations.

Ecott Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 (edited) + Support I agree with this, this is an exploit of shooting the Barret twice without waiting the cooldown on it. From watching the 1st video of the exploit, from what I'm seeing your what, weapon scroll wheel switching/hitting Alt to switch weapons and then switching back to the Barret? To exploit the cooldown on shooting it, but whether or not this is a thing you can fix and stop people from exploiting that though is the overall question?

Head of Staff Scor Posted November 7, 2022 Head of Staff Share Posted November 7, 2022 +/- Support tbh I never know there was a reloading exploit with the barret until this post. Does this only happen with the barret? I think a better alternative solution is to see if a developer can work on something to fix this issue. On the other hand, this fits under the exploitation rule, and if you see someone do it I recommend you either make a /report in game, or a make a player player report on here. To tell if someone is doing this, it’s a good way to countdown the same time it normally takes to reload the barret, and then compare. To my knowledge it takes about 5-7 seconds (I’ll test in game and edit the post upon getting the exact time). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~𝓢𝓞𝓤𝓛~ Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 -support how would this be a made a rule what if I player wants to switch to a shot gun after he shoots his barret and say the other player starts backing up if he were to pull the Barrett out that would be “exploiting” with gov run speed they can create distance very quickly on top of this players have muscle memory doing this the same way you would hopping while fighting lots of players that use Barretts are gonna get warned for something there used to doing.

Jimmy James Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 This is already a rule under exploiting and SMT already deemed this situation as an exploit. If this galena name a staff suit and the person should be warned for exploiting. We aren't adding this to the motd as it already falls under an existing rule.
