summoning off the map

[What]

Wouldn't it be the same as if you summoned in a vent? In essence you are summoning a player where they will be stuck, which I thought was a against the rules for Eye Ra.

you can't summon in vents. zero got rid of that ability a LONG time ago. the summoning fails if the player is unable to move a single pixel in at least 1 random direction.

posting the demo, watch i2o4, he tries it several times, successfully at 39000 and 45000

honestly ? I'm with a meh on this one.
It's really a situational scenario. TOO situational, to the point of being quite the achievement.
Not only do you need to be on THAT map, but you have to be on that team, at that position, summoning the last guy, who conveniently doesn't have a lace or cannot teleport or fly etc, while the objective is yet to be finished...

Personally? I see this as if u're a vaga, and the enemies got you stuck with a lace. Enemies can simply keep u stuck and go do the objective.
You cannot teleport out to stop them. So they ARE technically blocking you from finishing the objective because u're stuck when they could have simply killed u . The only reason they don't is to get more moolah from the bomb or hosties.
And u might argue that getting stuck with a lace is a game mechanic, but so is summoning people off edges, regardless of the map.

The fact that you can block this by having a lace should be sufficient, if it happened once? it's like those fucking idiots who use hell hunter and go off map with the bomb... and die there... shit happens, tough luck, you counter it or learn from it.
What would happen on crackhouse then if someone summoned u outside the map? or if u were shooting someone and they fell into the building cracks


I'll vote allowed for now, due to rareness of this "exploit".

From what I can see this is the same as getting a player stuck in that they are stuck outside of the map which is something that is obviously not intnded.

this is how i was interpreting it. not to mention...idk if he can get back into the map, so that's also not doing his objective.

last i checked zero, u are able to summon people to their death. Dying = not able to complete objective, so would surviving the fall be considered bad? Not to mention that they would be able to kill that summoned guy that fell outside if needed, just follow him. Whether he died from the summon fall or survived, it should be game over for him nway.... Thats my opinion i guess

[maynard]

people should not be summoned off the map. falling 2 your death is situational and can sometimes be overcome. being summoned 2 be stuck outside the map should not happen or be tolerated.

so if i were to stand on the edge of crackhouse building, facing the back of the map, and summon someone off that cliff IN THE INTENTION OF KILLING THEM, and then that piece of shit happened to survive it somehow.... are u telling me that i'd be breaking a rule? the mere reason why i'd wanna summon behind the building is because it's a higher fall, and almost guarantees 90% instant death for non levitation/fly/tele races.

just curious in case someone asked me.

note, when they appear, they are NOT in the void. they appear on solid ground, and WALK off the edge. that is why it's allowed to "summon people to their death" in such a manner. if, however, there was an area that you could crouch under, but which would immediately kill anything that is not crouched (i'm imagining buzz saws for example), you couldn't summon under them, and the summoned would have zero chance to not die.
