Players of EA’s popular first person shooter, Battlefield 4, have un-covered yet another glitch in the game. The glitch allows for the combination of character classes and load-outs by taking advantage of the games brief player spawn period.

In the video above, we see the player combine both the Engineer Class and the Support Class, this gives the player access to combinations of equipment that are (under normal circumstances) not equipable by select classes. The Engineer Class brings the anti-personnel/ anti-vehicular rocket launcher whereas the Support Class has access to the ammo bag. This effectively grants the player an unlimited supply of rockets.

In order to perform the glitch, players must go to their Class selection screen and navigate to the Gadget section. Select a Gadget slot and equip the preferred item whilst leaving the other slot empty, then switch to another player class and choose the opposing Gadget slot and fill it with the preferred item. When you press the spawn button, simply hit R1 and L1 buttons to spawn with a hybrid class that fields previously impossible load-outs.

This is the most recent glitch discovered in Battlefield 4 which has been named by some, as the most bug and glitch ridden games to be released on 8th generation hardware. One previous glitch involved bodies acting as shields against all manners of explosive and conventional weapons, so long as the player stood behind a corpse.

This glitch is expected to be patched soon, so if you want to toy around with it you best be quick!

A rather interesting glitch has emerged for the PlayStation 4 according to one Reddit user. Apparently happening for a few weeks, it seems that games are automatically being deleted or “disappearing” from the console.

“This morning Killzone was missing from my system after only playing it 2 days ago and seeing it on my system last night while playing Outlast. After initializing the console last month I thought it had fixed the issue but it seems not. There are no error messages or anything to suggest there is a problem with the console.”

This hardly seems to be an isolated incident as several users have reported similar issues in the past. While the game’s data files are deleted, it seems the save files are relatively safe. The console in question has no modifications done to it and the user is logged in. What could be causing the problem and how can it be resolved? That remains to be seen.

Alright well we all know that you have always been able to split-screen in all of the Gears of War games with Gears of War 3 not being an acception.  But now we can split-screen in the Gears of War 3 Beta with a guest.  This is a bug in the beta, but I see no harm done as it will be a feature in the full retail version.  Here is how you do it.

1: Start up any game that you can play with a guest online like Halo Reach, Call of Duty: Black Ops, etc.

2: Sign in a second controller as a Guest in that game.

3: Navigate to quick launch and start up the Gears of war 3 BETA.

4: Press start on the title screen with your gold account.

5: A pop-up will ask you to turn off the second controller. DO NOT DO THIS.

6: Next you’ll need to find a Friend or someone on your Recent Players list who is on the Gears of war 3 BETA and join their session.

7: At this point two things can happen. You will join the session along with your guest or it will not let you join but instead put you in a lobby with your guest.

8: If you are in a lobby with your guest you can then safely search for a game with your guest.

9: Enjoy.

Note: A minor bug may occur if you or your guest press the start button for any reason during a game, the opposite player will still be able to continue playing, but the screen will turn black and white as well as becoming all blurry. To fix this you must both pause your screens at the same time and un-pause at the same time.  Problem Solved.  Have fun!

Treyarch says that any movement problems that could be found in their super-blockbuster title, Call of Duty: Black Ops, have now been fixed.

“A slight problem with the latest hotfix” resulted in player playing online suffering a decrease in their speed.

“But all should be back to normal now,” said Treyarch community manager Josh Olin.

“The movement speed decrease on #CODBlackOps 360 & PS3 was unintentional, now fixed,” He added via a Tweet. “Restart your game and all will be normal.”

In the video above, given to us by one of our users, the player, while playing a Demolition Match, throws a random Tomahawk. It drops down towards the A Bomb Site and takes a right turn, going through five walls and stabbing a guy in the stomach who has just respawned. “Lol” worthy.

The developer behind the RTS and RPG games stated in a forum post, “If this is a first offense, the CD key associated with the banned account will be suspended for 30 days, while repeat offenders will see their keys banned permanently. All account ban decisions are final.” It’s serious stuff.

According to Blizzard, the Battle.net accounts are being permanently removed for use of 3rd party programs, and exploitation of “unintended mechanics”- in other words, hacking and glitching.

“We would like all players to remember that abuse of unintended mechanics and/or use of third party programs is a violation of the agreement made when signing on to Battle.net, and can subject your account to disciplinary action up to and including a permanent ban of its access to the service. These types of activities can severely impact the stability of our servers, and we’ll continue to aggressively monitor Battle.net in order to protect the service and its players from the harmful effects of cheating.”

“Many account closures come as the direct result of tips emailed to our hacks team by legitimate Battle.net users. If you come across a hack, find a site responsible for distributing hacks, or have a replay of a newly available hack, please report this to our hacks team.”

This is the second time a great big ban hammer has been dropped on a significant number of players, the last occurence being in September 2008.

The moral of the story? Don’t hack- or you might not play Starcraft II.

Glitches have landed right back in the game with a vengance, among which are the Equiptment Hack and the ice skating glitch, allowing players to literally glide across the map.

Update: This video is no longer available.

All I can say is- I suppose this is what you get for majorly screwing over PC gamers.
