Anyone else notice that you can see gun flashes through thin walls?
Kind of a slight advantage over people who don't have dynamic lighting turned on for everything.

I have noticed, but I didn't think it was in relation to Dynamic Lighting. It's sux0rs anyway. No doubt some people will like the fact that they can gain an advantage this way.

Even worse, sometimes your feet stick through walls if you're too close.

Yeah...clipping through walls suxors...on the other hand....I did get a cheap kill on Stickboy yesterday because I saw his gun sticking :roll: though a wall!

This has been a problem with a lot of games for a long time...somebody should've figured out how to stop this by now. :? :evil:

ive been killed several times due to that. its like 'wtf he shot me through a wall!' then you watch the cam and see 3/4 of your legs sticking thru the wall....

They should have. No excuse about it. I remember the infiltration mod for unreal calculated clipping sizes for different guns. You could actually use the walls and windows to steady you aim.

I can't say that I've been shot or have hit anyone because their leg was sticking through a wall, but I have been able to spot people's locations using this bug. Same with the gun flashes appearing through walls. The latter doesn't bother me as this tends to compensate for the lack of truly directional sound. Still.. it is a wall...

Definately appears to be sloppy coding of some sort. I wonder if fixing it means breaking something else and that the developers opted for the lesser of two evils...
