Team Fortress 2
Map Exploits
Is a reason why Valve just doesn't make everything outside of the regular map non-buildable?

Seriously. You'd think they would have learned by now.

FYI, I've already directly emailed both Eric Smith and the TF2 team about this and reported in game.

You should've used bug report instead of mailing them, they'll probably won't even see your mail

They fixed the pl_borneo one.
They're going to make the spot unbuildable in the next update

I reported both in game and direct email.

But the bigger question still remains, why don't they just end the problem entirely by making everything outside of the regular map non-buildable? We know they can do this. And it would save them from having to deal with bugs.

Because it is actually harder to locate all areas Engineers should be able to build in when going by "only if; otherwise not" principle. Many spots Engineers tend to use will possibly gone missing as Valve does not know as much of building spots as the players do, hence why it is easier to terminate the problem spots one by one rather than making many Engineer players unhappy for lacking the old building areas due to Valve forgetting to add "build area" tags to it.

Koth_frontier is the most broken map.

It is so broken that it is not even koth ( °u°)

FTFY.

I don't plan on telling anyone how I do my little exploit. I never want it patched.

I wonder how long that exploit will persist and whether or not you are "the only one" knowing about it.

Well, a lot of people have seen it. I'm just not sure how many people actually KNOW how to do it.

Enough people are busy either honing their skills or doing wacky stuff without exploits. Doubt anyone is interested.

I like to find exploits. I do the objective a lot, but sometimes I don't really want to and just look for exploits when I'm bored.

If nobody is interested, that's fine.

Ik, you can even see the engi's buildings outside the map.
I still find it funny, I mean he's on a narrow cliff, outside the map, giving the back to a wall, spies can come only from one way. Better wear a razorback.
i know, its still pretty funny
