WALKING THROUGH WALLS!

Why is there people walking through walls and just walking on air! I've seen people even run right through big hills and mountains. How can I do this? save me time.

it's mods most the time. sometimes glitches. the prior to the two will get you banned lol

oh :confused: thx for the headsup

I think they're in a different zone. Sometimes you'll see people walk off and their name fades away. To them, they're probably still running in their path and you're the one who's walking through walls.

I'm pretty sure it's lag..I've sat next to my bf while we both play and run through the same areas. On his screen it'll be fine, but on mine I will occasionally see him run through the corner of a wall or something.

I've gotten used to seeing people walk through walls and such : /

I'd disagree with Veran and say that it's just lag most (maybe all) of the time. I very often see party members scaling mountains, walking through walls, etc when I am following them. It's just because the game realized that the person is farther away than they were displayed on your screen, so it puts them in the right spot by the shortest distance possible.

You probably walk through walls regularly, too! You just wouldn't know it unless someone mentioned seeing you.

Yes..this happens on occasion and is pretty obvious. But cutting through a corner while the player resumes running on path is ok. I can see lag for that.

I'm talking about players that actually run through a mountain. Yesterday I saw someone run through the wall in LL in the middle of the main stair case (upper and lower decks), they continued walk PAST the walkway on the other side and was walking on air (I can see him because of the windows in the staircase and I was looking out the window), he stopped mid-air standing above the water 2 stories up. He then just continued walking and disappeared from my camera range.
Is there hacks for this game already?!?!

The only explanation I can see for this is if they were walking and suddenly got disconnected then may be the character in-game might glitch out and continue running until server completes log-out. Long shot but still might happen.

That sounds like lag on their end, too. One of my linkshell mates had a while where her internet was terrible, and she was doing things like that. One time she died, but it didn't register on her end. She ran halfway down the map, and for the rest of us, it looked like her KO'd character was just sliding across the ground.

In LL, I've also seen people's characters show up on the wrong level. To them, they are on ground floor, but to me, it looks like they are on the second floor. Could that explain your example?

This happened to us too!!! A few months ago me, my bf and several LS members were fighting out in La Noscea, and one of the LS members had similar difficulties. To him, he was alive, and we were all standing still on his screen. To us, he was dead and sliding around everywhere. We thought it was hilarious! My bf even recorded it for a bit..

Come back here dead body! I'm not through with you yet!

There few parts of the game that have issue, Like i see myself on my gf screen and am up in the air while i'm fine then i see her up in the air. It always happen on that same spot. which means it a bug in the system this happen a lot in FFXI also but it was a type of bug no one really care about.

Its a latency thing. When your PC recieves data pertaining to where someone is located, then recieves the next batch of data later than anticipated (as such obstructing a realistic path flow), it draws a straight line from point A to point B and makes the character model in question follow said route. I've seen it alot in Grid/Black Shroud and through the narrow valley pathways in Thanalan.

as alot of people have said it is latency issues, I have once apparently been walking ontop of the ceiling in limsa shopping arcade. There are hacks in this game already, but this is not one of them.
