Banning for trapper exploit?

This has been a thing for a while now, where the trapper will glitch traps partially into the ground to make them undetectable. as an exploit, this is bannable, right?

No. It's been in the game literally forever, new maps/changes always make more of these spots, so the devs just patch them as they find them.
ah I've played against this when the trapper was using tar bottle lmao it was fun
No and it shouldn't be. Trapper has nothing else going for him.
Nope. And it shouldn't be. Those spots exist because of the map layout, not because the player is making the trap go underground
So that's what is was!!! In badhlam (might not be spelling it correctly) school, in main door, I knew there was a trap there and a few of my team got caught there (main front door). When I was running from the killer i slowed down there to disarm the trap while he was breaking a pallet. The trap wasn't there anymore so i just ran and BAM... got caught on it!
Yeah, that a common spot. Hard to see.
Trapper is a takes time to learn, but he is certainly not weak
I hit rank 1 playing Trapper only. He most definitely is on the weaker side; anyone will tell you the same.
These spots are used actively and intentionally, and can be found most of the time by looking at where the trap will be placed. Saying that people shouldn't be banned for this is like saying survivors who exploited the crotus prenn roof glitch shouldn't have been banned because it's just part of the map
No. SImply put the layout of the map is at fault, not the Trapper. Plus these spots have been in the game since Launch, and more and more keep being found, so I highly doubt the devs will ban people for this. Best advice is too simply learn these spots and check them when fighting trapper.
You tell that to the win streak most people have on him, it's practically a free win
That issue was an isolated problem on 1 map, that was easily fixable. And was fixed.
The trap issue is on just about every map in some capacity, and almost every patch creates more of them. The amount of players you're asking to ban for an almost unfixable problem is ridiculous.
Of course they are used, why wouldn't they?
Don't know what this roof glitch is.
And that's not a good analogy.
Saying people should be banned for using those is like saying survivors should be banned for using god loops.
The roof glitch was an out-of-bounds exploits where survivors could go. the fact that you have never heard of this exploit tells me that you are relatively new to this game, and the fact that you think looping is as bad as an exploit just cements that as a fact. All infinites were removed a long, long time ago.
I started playing when gruesome gateaus were a thing. But my play time is irrelevant, just as yours is.
Is it an exploit? Can you denife what you think exploit means?
Did I say infinite? No, I didn't. But either way, infinites still exists until the BL change goes live.
Did I say looping was bad? No, I didn't. Can you actually read what I say before replying to it? It would help.
This actually requires a lot of map knowledge so it's skillful. If devs didn't ban for older expolits like the wake up exploit that everyone knew about and abused it anway then they definitely won't ban for this.
Not physically. Power wise? Yeah lol.
Just crouch and look for traps
1) play time is very relevant, it roughly shows how much you actually know about what you're talking about.
2) An exploit. [EXPLOTING] a bug or glitch in a way that makes something uncounterable or excessively strong.
3) You said "god loop", which sounds and awful lot like what infinite means. and BL is getting nerfed.
4) you compared looping to an exploit. "-you think looping is as bad as an exploit-" "as bad as" Never said anything about looping itself, just that it's not worse than exploiting by any means.
Seems like you are the one who should improve their reading comprehension skills, buddy.
you only have to watch 1 video, there's no skill required here.
Wake up was a short lived glitch. this has existed pretty much forever, so people should be getting temp bans for constantly exploiting it.
can't do that mid chase. also this is about an exploit, there is no talk about how to counter trapper normally.
I didn't see the mid-chase part in the original post
but most of the time against trapper you could step in a trap
1) yeah, no. It shows for how long I've played. Not how much I am involved with it, or how much I know. And it's completely irrelevant to the topic.
2) so, not the actual definition of the word? Ok.
By that definition, it doesn't apply to the traps. So congratulations, you played yourself.
3) except it doesn't. You are just making excuses now...
4) I said, the god loops are as bad as these traps. If you think people should get banned for using those traps, than people should gat banned for using the god loops. Seriously, actually pay attention when you read my comments. Would help.
Sure mate...sure...😂
Is this the real flamingkitty or did you just copy their name? God I hope the former is true. If so we are in the presence of a God
You have a link for a video that covers all the spots on all maps that gets updated regulary since these spots get randomly fixed with each patche while it creates other ones ? I though not.
Wake up's case was far more serious then random bugged tiles that allow this. You can always run anti trap perks insted of asking for bans.
one or more spots per video, doesn't have to be every single current spot.
Why are you so vehemently defending exploiters? just because "it's just the trapper"? If the Wake Up glitch lasted longer than the short time it did, I would have suggested people abusing it get temp bans, just like I am now.
Get meme'd on, nerd. /dab/
Imo this is just a quirk with the game that you either already know about them or you will eventually. Asking for people to be banned for using these trap spots is ridiculous, it's not an exploit. It hardly makes Trapper an OP and un-counterable killer.
It's not something you really consciously do, and even when you do it's only in a handful of areas so it rarely comes up in average gameplay.
