One of the things that I've noticed other people doing is glitching through maps to hide and kill people. Once someone has gone into the glitch space, you can't kill them. There are two specific places where this is happening but I've only seen one person use the one space. The problem areas are in Turf Takeover within the Moon Base Z and Seeds of Time. Most people are doing it in the Moon Base between the last two circles. Right before moving on to the last one, the space before the anti-gravity zone begins, (redacted) and there is nothing you can do to kill the person glitched underneath. In Seeds of Time, I saw one person glitching into the wall in the first zone. (redacted) This is getting to be ridiculous and this game has had the worst glitches exploited. This needs to be fixed!

Hi @Preservation_Sim - We have tried many times to get popcap to fix these glitches. They are either unwilling or unable. I recommend you take screenshots or video and use the reporting system on your platform, or report the player here: https://help.ea.com/en-us/help/faq/report-players-for-cheating-abuse-and-harassment/ The more information you can provide (platform, time, regional server, cheater's gamer tag) the better. I apologize sincerely for editing your post, but the text I removed was too specific as to how these glitches are exploited. I know one can find this information easily elsewhere, but we can't have it here on the EA forums.

@pandareno1999 Yeah I’ve filed multiple cases about the same people doing it. The below the map glitch you guys are aware of because we’ve already talked about it (imp to mech at a certain point). The other are holes in a wall you can hide in and not take damage. I’ll attach one clip now and another later when I get home.http://xboxdvr.com/gamer/DirtDiggler82/video/45402876. .

@pandareno1999 While there are people exploiting outside-the-map glitches, I have found that sometimes it is unavoidable. Multiple times (on Xbox One) my map has decided to just not load/render, which allows me to shoot through the map, see through the map, walk through some of the map, and get stuck on invisible objects.This normally happens about half way through the game. When this glitch occurs, the only way to fix it is to leave the game. I have no control over whether this glitch happens or not and I find it extremely annoying.Here is an example of the glitch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p_7UH6Sm6ko&feature=youtu.be

@EA_Roger @EA_Darko Could we please try again to get popcap to fix these glitches? They are being exploited a lot more lately and it's becoming a problem for many players. @dwooten77 can give you the specifics.

Yeah, I haven't had it happen in a while but someone today glitched really bad in Moon Base and killed me twice while doing it and who knows however many people on my team. I ended up reporting this guy to xbox. It's unfair to everyone else and just ruins the game. Thanks for the additional info!

Are they going to fix this or not? There's a group of people who are exploiting this at the final stage of Moon Base Z. Kept getting targeted.

They've been presented to popcap tied up with a bow. Whether they have the inclination and/or resources to fix these issues is anyone's guess.

@dwooten77 I've discovered a serious wall glitch on the way into one of the later portals in seeds. Did you already know this one? PM in the slack if you need more detail.

Seems more like Popcap does not talk about it or even acknowledge these issues in hope they go away someday. The awful collision issues are the same.
If Popcap would start talking about these problems and provide insight via developers (still surprising they managed to provide reasoning behind balance changes) my respect for them would be a bit restored. Not to forget that it is always beneficial to understand problems rather than being let in the dark and assume evil intent.
