"Exploiting this" >..> How is this an "exploit" it's just a cosmetic glitch, it doesnt give them an advantage in any shape or form of the word. im just curious why this is such a big deal to people..

[Karatecatgrl]

Glitches sent supposed to be in the game. And perform ing or repeating a glich is exploitation of the algorithm.

The persistent dance emotes when performed are designed so that you cannot perform other actions while performing the persistent emote. Thus by glitching it you gain an unfair advantage over the confines of the emote. This is the glitch. To perform a glich repeatedly when you should know better not to. Thus makes it an exploit.

Besides when your glitches like this it could possibly lead to other bugs that are currently unknown. Its better for it to be fixed now then to have serious issues later.

Taking Advantage of the confines of the Emote, that's a new one. Lawl. i love the official forums, such a good place to go for a quick laugh

This glich is starting to be gamebreakimg and ruins the immersion. People are no longer running around they look like statues on a converter belt. Its really bad. It looks terrible and quite frankly is very annoying.

Please fix this.

Nooo! Please don't take out Buttcart racing!!!

I've actually had friends who haven't played in months come back because if this glitch.

Edit: The real glitch is that you don't get to appreciate it yourself when you do it. So fix it so that it will show you 'gliched' on your own screen. ^_^

So I guess the /sit then unsheathe your weapon really quick so you can have a pretty glow behind you or while you're running/sitting or doing other emotes is an exploit too since everyone is doing it? >__> I bet you're just mad because you can't do it!

While I agree that it is exploitation to a degree. I highly doubt it is an issue in need of serious fix. Although, I am sure by now the developers have identified how to rectify this issue in a soon to be implemented hotfix update.

However, it is not gamebreaking. It doesn't affect gameplay by much of anything.

Did you know there are other glitches people have been taking advantage of way long before something like the sit emote one surfaced?

So with these already existent glitches, the game technically is broken by your analysis of what constitutes as gamebreaking. That may extend as far as you having been paying to play a broken game since however many months you have been subscribed.

I personally choose not to try and replicate a glitch since if while I am in that glitched state I could run into unforseen bugs that result due to the glitch which would be unfortunate.

I'm not trying to spoil fun. I am just reporting unintended algorithm behavior to the proper authorities.
