View Full Version : Recorded Replay event divergence

I just remembered that a slight glitch happened in the recording of a replay of a game that took place online. At one point in the game, one of the worms lands and pulls out a shotgun and shoots another worm. The weird thing is that I can't remember this actually happening in the actual game. It seems like the bug of replays diverging from what actually happened was fixed for instant replays, but not for recorded ones. Unfortunately, I am unable to prove this. I don't have the replay file on the computer I am currently using, so I'll upload it later.
EDIT: Oops, wrong forum.

1) Pull down the chat while playing back the replay and check for checksum errors.
2) Find the people you played with, and get them to see if their versions of the replay also play back wrong.

I found (I think) the replay in which it happened, but this time the worm did not shoot the shotgun.

It's an alternate timeline, Marty!
