The structure is the tall slim towers on several maps, with an angled top. The have a spire on them that the sniper can jump into, CAN shoot out, CAN'T be shot at.
Today I shot a guy with my charge, he had a slither left before I could follow up he jumped into the spire, I saw he was getting kills a few mins later, he was using a Thale's, so I was hunting. Took my shot, no damage, so I figured he was on the other side of the spire. Call in the Uncubuscopter of doom, fly up to him and he is inside the small spire box, unleashed several volloys of rockets, direct and splash couldn't hurt him. Luckily I pissed him off enough that he pro'd the match with a classy 6/0 score.
This needs fixing, If I was in that box with a Thale's the exploit would have been in the 40's with ease if there is no worry of being killed. |

I've seen this too, although while trying to counter-snipe them at a distance. Had to move up to a spot behind the curve and wait for them to move up before I could nail them. |

You can't shoot through it but you can hide in it to not get shot at. At ranges I noticed you can see them on the other side if they are behind it but that is just a rendering issue. |

The same building type gets used on other matches, but the meshes or structure at the top seems to vary slightly. I've noticed this impacts whether or not you can drop hives/links for example. What exactly changes in the top of the structure when it appears on different maps isn't immediately clear to me.
Some players that exploit it more frequently might know better which appearances of the building support safe spots and droppables.
I'd be fine with droppable items on all of them, safe spots... obviously bad. |

Yes The tower in the image he located is the correct tower, wasn't that map, but the same style towers are used on several maps.
Someone above said a shot cant be fired, but I was about 25ft away when he got his last kill before i tried killing him with my incubus, and it definately showed a kill on te feed from him.
The exact tower used was on this map: http://web.ccpgamescdn.com/newssystem/media/64656/1/IronDelta_skirmish.jpg

F***! That explains where that sniper was in a prior match - I kept scoping the slanted tower, but I thought that was a long shot because could anyone even sit on it. |

Strange magic happens on that tower indeed...
Had a game where the massacre was so overwhelming from that tower that towards the end there were well over 5 snipers only focused on it and even so, no one could kill him, and I could only get a mark on him once (but he sure could hit me all the time regardless). He was killing people all around from 100/150m from the tower's base right into the starting base (B point side). |

Hi,
We fixed the collision bug. There should be no way to jump into the spire in Uprising 1.4.
If you still encounter the similar issue in the same or other structures, can you please capture a screenshot of the location in Overview Map?
Many Thanks :) |

Some little butt nugget was back in the spire today, obviously this was not fixed in 1.4 |
