Video at http://www.xfire.com/video/12509/

What do you think of this, it was obviously not an intended use of the vehicle, and it has a few uses that, while not game breaking, can certainly be usefull to the player utilizing this glitch.

In the video I have a brief shot of Xeanderthal using the glitch, I have come across several other players using it, especially boingyman who is very insistent, that its not a glitch at all, and has been complaining about me saying I would report it here.

How is that a glitch? I was told you do it by turning around very fast, lol.


edit: eh whatever. people are gonna respond with, "it's not supposed to go that high :<"

I tried it and I couldn't do it. :/

Well i guess flying the manta in reverse is a glitch.

It's clearly not intended manta behaviour; it's no different than the scavenger exploit that was fixed during the last patch.

There is a manta blocking volume at the top of every map, not 10ft off the ground, if the manta was only intended to get 10ft off the ground the blocking volume would be 10ft off the ground. I'd prefer a kill volume for all the noobs who complain about this type of stuff.

That "blocking volume" is to prevent them from jumping up there normally, like say going up the ramps on suspense and jumping. This glitch, and it is a glitch, was not forseen in such a way.
