Secret/Hidden Sniper on Abandon

Damn. I am going to have to practice this a **** ton. It must be something they accidentaly left there from editing the weapon layouts.

 

Used it right at the start of a game in Dubs earlier, the other team had no idea what the hell was going on by the looks of it. I can't do the return jump properly, but a JP works fine too if the gametype allows for it.

 

I love it when hidden stuff is there like that. It'll get patched though, just you watch.

 

It's not present on the default version of Abandon, it seems specific to Anakin's version which is used in Throwdown and Doubles. I assume they could simply fix it and replace the map, though I wonder why it happened on the first place.

 

Damn, this looks awesome, gonna try this next time I'm on. Has this been known for long?

 

Well, the dubs version was originally created for an AGL tournament if I recall. It was later adopted by 343i, and my guess is that the person who forged the original put that in as an easter egg of sorts. I know I do it on my maps (usually in unreachable places, sorta just to mark the map as mine) and I can't possibly be the only one who likes hiding things. That's just my guess though.

 

Yeah, I used to put cones outside of my maps for no reason.

 

Nice job finding that source and sharing this! It looks like a fun temporary thing to use.

 

I think it was actually created for early MLG gametypes originally, then later used by AGL.

 

Somebody was being a cheaty-cheaty cheat-cheat. Pretty funny - pity I never play dubs anymore.
