I think exploiting a little glitch is fine in single player when faced with an impossibly hard achievement that pretty much cannot be unlocked any other way.
But in multiplayer? No.
And it definitely does not take skill.

hell no. glitching doesn't mean you're skilled it just means you can make the game designer suck it.
I glitch all the time because I think it's interesting to find intriguing, diffucult to happen and funny bugs. It DOES NOT make me skilled. It makes me someone who can't think of anything else to do besides piss off the Q&A department.
Glitching is a substitute for skill when you lack it, hence why I do it all the time on L4D2 (the game is really hard and I'm not that good)>

Glitching is ok in one player situation.
But it ruins the fun in multiplayer games.
I really dislike glitchers, I never do it myself.

If you're exploiting a glitch that's certainly an indication you're not playing for fun but for stats. I've never seen the point of it because to me it's not fun to e.g. sit down in a corner up in the air in counter-strike (map: de_dust) and camping happily killing everything before they realize you're 50 feet above them.Vern said:
Honestly, I never had a problem with Javelin Glitch.
I guess its because I'm a pretty calm guy when it comes to videogames. I just think "He can Jav glitch now, but I guess I'll just make a Jav class next game, and do it to his team"

Hmmm Glitching in general is bad and should not be used or needed in competitive play .....BUT.....
If your good at a game you should know everything about it including the glitches you just shouldn't be a douche and use them.
I make it a point to learn every glitch so I can DESTROY people that use them.

Setting out to break a game doesn't make you talented, it makes you a dick.
One of my lecturers said something about glitching. Some along the lines of it can be very frustating the first time you spend months or years on a game, to have groups of people that go purposely out of their way to break the game so they can complain about how shit your game is on internet forums.

Glitching is fine by me. As long as the developers let you do something, why not do it? Unless, of course, its a SP game and you've found an infinite life glitch, that's just ruining the challenge of the game.WhiteTiger225 said:
So MP = fine, SP = bad.
If someone finds a glitch, fine. If they then use it over and over purposely, then they can piss off.
I hate it when I hear the douchebag weedheads at school bragging that they "found" a map glitch
Three reasons why this is pathetic:
1) They all suck at the game, so it's a moot point
2) They didn't find it, they googled "OMG MW2 MAP GLITCHEZ" and clicked on the first result
3) The glitches are very often "escape the map" glitches that achieve nothing and give them no benifit to the game
However, they like discussing them, as it makes them feel part of the gaming subculture
ONE THAT I AM PART OF, and yet they do not realise it!
BWAHAHAHAHA
I watch them with patronising mirth!
BWAHAHAHAHAHA

I pretty much stopped playing shooters online when being a competitive player stopped requiring you to improve your your skills and actually learn how to be a better player and started to become learning and then exploiting every bug, glitch and parts of the map that were poorly designed that unfortunately exist in the game. Sure a lot of the old shooters were full exploiting the game, but they were less about exploiting problems with the game and more about using the systems that the developer put in place in ways they didn't anticipate. It's emergent gameplay, which is quite frequently a mark of a great game. The things people do now are absolutely nothing like skiing in Tribes or rocket jumping in Quake, which actually was a skill in and of itself.
