Halo: Reach Teabag abuse will be less traumatising

​

March 8, 2010 - File this one under "Only interesting because it is Halo." In its latest update, the folks over at Bungie.net have revealed that in its current Alpha state, Halo: Reach does not support everybody's favorite way of humiliating their downed opponents in Halo: teabagging. Don't worry. It's been filed as a bug and will be fixed for the upcoming Beta this May.

I'm not making this up.

In the current build of Halo: Reach, when a player dies the game immediately brings the camera back to the respawn location. This prevents the downed player from seeing any potential teabagging that the victorious foe may or may not engage in. Here's the full text of the submitted bug as published by Bungie:

"Title: Teabagging / humiliation moves impossible

Type: Bug

Opened: 3/4/2010 8:53:13 AM

The respawn camera flies back to the spawn location immediately after dying, so your opponents can't teabag / shoot / melee your body and have a possibility of you seeing it."

In perhaps more interesting news, Bungie has promised to explain what exactly Headhunter and Invasion modes, teased in the most recent trailer, are in advance of the May 3 beta launch. Stay tuned for the latest.

They said it will be fixed so by time you get to play it, it should be sorted.

Now it's not gonna be as annoying as it was. Getting raped by a 12 year old boy, is hella' annoying.

From what i understood from the article it will be the same as ever when the Beta launches. It just doesnt work at this moment in time at the Alpha state as the camera switches straight back to the respawn point. So the teabagging will continue as normal when the Beta and full game launches.
