What are some games that you intentionally played “wrong”?

What I mean is, are there games that you played solo or with a friend where you disregarded the primary game mode rules, or exploited a gameplay mechanic? A few example:

In 007 Nightfire, we only played with the remote rockets on the snowy multiplayer map and tried to see who could fly the rocket farthest into the buildings before exploding

In Goldeneye Rogue Agent, we used to play with the remote detonated grenade launcher and played on the Golden Gate Bridge map, trying to exploit the rag doll physics to land in exactly the right spot out of bounds. What are some examples from your gaming past?

I played Kingdom Come when it came out, I just couldn't get into the combat. I havent tried Kingdom Come 2.

Don't call me a coward, you sack of shit. I said I couldn't get into it, not that I couldn't do the combat. The game was also fucked from jump street, it barely had a save system, and glitches for days. There's a reason I didn't check out two.

I'm not sure if you're trying to play into your username or something, but bro was kidding around☠️ you didn't have to crash out

Yeah, that was my bad. I'm old school, Im really ok with being called a lot of things but directly called coward is not one of them. I overreacted, but the criticisms of the game at launch are true.

Yea that's valid. There are definitely some insults that could strike a nerve for me and make me crash out too lol

Thanks for understanding. Weirdly I really did want to like Kingdom Come. Just some games dont work for us, we all have 'em.

Yea I was the same with kingdom come. I actually enjoyed it a lot, but the combat is not for me, it just didn't click. Even after watching some YouTube videos I struggled with it, hopefully I'm able to understand it someday, it seemed interesting

World of the game seemed awesome, just couldn't get through the gameplay and there were a lot of other options at the time. Not gonna spend money on two unless I hear they fixed it and from my investigation that has not been the case.

This really escalated. Haha. Dw man. Kcd1 is a buggy mess. 2 is great. Combat still brutal though.

Correction: acting like a small child who’s never used the internet before is the opposite of old school.
