Invincible Teleporters

[fever 9,884]

So in my 18 months of TF2 and 2500 hours I come across this thing  from time to time where teleporters cannot be destroyed.  Anyone else ever seen this?   I think it is more of a bug in the game rather than someone doing it deliberately.  I just put 4 rockets into an exit twice with a pyro phlogging it and it still wouldn't go down.  I can't see that being because the engie is turtling the entrance.

 

Did I miss a meeting?

I know this glitch from sentries and dispensers, so i guess it'll apply to teleporters, too.

But i thought it was fixed?

Valve "fixes" glitches with every update yet they still mysteriously show up again. Bonk has been released 5 years ago and they still didn't patch the exploit where you can taunt kill while bonked. Go figure...

One way of doing it was fixed. I think I know how to do it.

Yeah?  I got someone banned on Aerolite's servers recently for that.  First time I had seen it....massive pain in the arse.

...pretty shoddy when they fix stuff, then fix other stuff but the latest fix breaks the fix for previous stuff.  Shit happens, but you'd expect more of Valve when you look at the quality of people they hire.

when i saw an exit teleport at last bit of water from the sewer, i couldn't destroy it as a soldier, not a rocket or other weapon

I believe there's a glitch around to give engy's buildings, (i know how to do a sentry and dispenser) an insane amount of HP, but requires the help of a enemy spy

Basicly you build a level 3 sentry then go to move it and while its re-building you have the spy sap it as its about to start rebuilding in to a level 2 sentry, then you knock the sapper off, your sentry will be level 1 and will have 210 hp, then each time you do this, the sentry's hp will double, going to 420, 840, 1680 and so on, it caps at around 60k i think.

This is what i know regarding Somewhat invincible buildings etc, so if you see people on lotus servers trying to do a similar thing, do a !calladmin

This is where I couldn't destroy mine but I have seen it happen elsewhere on 2 Fort in the sewers.

^ This.  Also if you are not familiar with how we roll at Lotus, this will get you a rollicking and possibly a ban.  Saying you saw how to do it on our forums won't wash either   I do believe Valve servers support this style of game play though xD

That sapper exploit is supposed to be fixed.

Have to consider that there could be four engys sitting on the other end attached to four dispensers.

One engie alone can keep an lvl 3 teleporter up against a soldier shooting the other exit afaik.

It does not cap with 60k. We banned someone for a while recently who had buildings with 4 million (!) health.

Seems to me that some engineers studied more than others.

An easy way to check would be to use stickes. Simply lay 4 stickes on the teleporter exit. No matter how fucking good that engi is, or if there are 400000000 of them at the other end, they can't stop a sticky bomb killing it. If that doesn't work, use all 8. If THAT doesn't work, its clearly got more health than it should
