The Safe-Helmet Thing is a Glitch

[Kusan]

Earlier today with the CCG I went to do a CFO run. As expected the cogs went real easy. We got to the Bosscog and about when he turned orange was when it went downhill. People went sad, disconnected, everything. And you can probably guess what else....Yup. The Safe glitch. Eventually it came down to me and a yellow duck. At first I kept thinking he was putting the safes on and wanted me to die so he could hog the glory. Well, he eventually died and I was left. There was a safe on his healmet and I miraculously was able to get it off. I threw a goon at him and he was blinking red. I kept thinking "1 MORE COME ON!" I picked it up and threw the goon (YES I WAS GONNA WIN!) WHACK! A SAFE OUT OF NOWHERE HITS HIM! So for the next 10 minutes I'm thinking, "No problem, I can do this." But soon the goons of doom came out. (Ones that hurt -30) I could've won...but my adrenaline rush was too great. I ended up killing myself.

Because of this experience, I'm not going near Cashbot HQ for a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG time. I'll stick with the VP and CJ....nothing can wrong there except bad skill.

Well, I just thought I'd let you all know that it's a glitch. (If you haven't already figured it out)

Well the C.F.O. really isn't that bad I dont like the C.J. anyways yeah it can really get frusterating when its down to those few hits it's like you hit the helmet off and ur about to get attacked by the C.F.O or goons then you try to switch and u get a goon and again bam right when your gonna hit him his helmet comes back i guess you just need to wait till you get the chance to kill him.

Like I said, I'm not going near him until it's somewhat "fixed". (Even though I need one more for a Bean Counter)

I agree that ifs VERY frustrating that's one of the reasons why I don't go on TT that much anymore, too many bugs. People report Glitches- for Example. Ghost glitch glitches are the fun things and are not cheats. However, noone reports Bugs- things that crash the server and make it slower and every single other bad thing (besides the toons) that happen in this game.

The CFO will pick up safes left near his reach and put them on as helmets. If you pull the safes back, with the magnets, out of his reach, he can't pick them up. If I am playing and there are only a couple of toons i trade cranes and move the safes back out of his reach. It takes time, but I have won going into the CFO with only 4 toons on the elevator and only 3 toons surviving the battle round by using this method. On several occasions. Hope it helps.

I hear talk and constantly see posts on the CFO grabbing safes which are located near him. (I am not saying that he actually physically picks up a safe and puts it on.)

I just dont see how that can happen, or if people are just seeing something that isnt there. (I don't see how safe placement can affect him getting helmets)

All I see is, as the CFO gets more damage (ie-turning orange and red), he gets helmets faster, but they fall from the ceiling. Basically its like in other games where a boss gets tougher as he is close to dying.

In other words, for example.... When he is green lets say he wont get a helmet for X amount of time... like 15 seconds (assuming no one hits him with goons).

Then when he turns orange it goes down to 10 seconds.

Then when he turns red it goes down to 5 seconds.

These are just examples, not actuall numbers.

I have been in CFO's where there are safes far away from him, and some where they are surrounding him closely, but havent seen any differences whatsoever.

Food for thought (my mind is hungry)

It isn't a glitch and it will not be fixed because it isn't. It's part of the cfo! That's what makes solo craning so hard! I tried soloing crane because everyone else went sad, I beat it, but safes started getting on when he was yellow!

[Midnite Purr]

That is a normal part of the game. I didnt see it for about the first about the first 50 times I was in CFO because we always won before that happened. But when he gets red, safes keep going on his head to make it harder. Just like in the VP, if you take too long, the VP will keep jumping.

[Mister Jellyroll BananaGoober]

Hmm. I noticed whenever i go and defeat the cfo, and there is a safe near him, He immediately picks it up! I don't think its more of a glitch, I think it's just part of the game as Midnite Purr said.

The VP does this also, when people are very far away from him he starts jumping constantly.

Yes. If you watch closely, you'll see them actually drop straight down from the ceiling and land on his head. It's a split second, but you can see it dropping. This only happens if he is not hit with goons for a period of time, and this period of time gets shorter the more damaged he gets. The only solution is to make sure you have an ample supply of disabled goons, which means good stompers, and accurate craners to send them sailing towards the CFO's head. I have been in CFOs where the safe never drops, because the stompers are doing an excellent job disabling goons, and the craners are hitting him so much he's constantly stunned. So long as he is stunned, the safe will not drop.

Bottom line, it's not a glitch.

Yeah, I have a RB 50, LS 11, and SC 3 and I have never, not once, seen the CFO pick up a safe and put it on his head. I thought I was nuts because so many people keep saying that.

The thing is that there's a timer on the CFO. I think it differs depending on the suit levels in the elevator, number of combined wins, etc. After a certain amount of time safes start dropping from the ceiling. It's annoying but without it the CFO would be too easy (though that's just my opinion).

It has to do with the color too (he's usually red) but it all depends on how long it's taking. If you have excellent craners and he gets to red right away it won't happen.

its quite similar wiht the vp.
see, for the vp, if you dont get him stunned for a certain amount of time, **** start moving back up the ramp very slowly(have to be real close to see his treads moving, sometimes he might jump forward a little, i have seen this happen), and the closer he is to falling of the edge, the less ime he is stunned and the less time oyu have ot stun ihm before he starts moving

[Black Widow Kitty]

It's not a glitch. The longer it takes you to battle the cfo, the more you wiill see safes dropping from the ceiling onto his head.
Go in with an elevator full of toons that know how to crane and stomp and the battle is over in a few short minutes. Go in with toons that are a bit wet behind the ears and you will see safes dropping like crazy.

Hmm...maybe I will go back to Cashbot HQ a few times. Still, this is annoying. Makes it impossible to win after a certain tme, which is stupid.
