Repeatedly dropping the pizza and  picking it up so that you can sprint the package to the LZ.
It certainly doesn't seem to be something in the design of the objective - a bug, but players will do it anyway to make the game easier.

Obviosuly it's not as game-destroying as the missile glitch, but whenever I see somebody doing it, I just feel that I'm not entertained by the game [insert Maximus picture here]. I won't do it myself, and I won't gel in a match where it occurs (since IMO the players doing the sprinting probably have enough glitches up their sleeve that my input isn't so much of a requirement).

I've also never seen it on XBox.

And my opinion? Clever use of game mechanics.

Clever, and profitable, use of game mechanics.

I don't do it, but I like when others do. Faster is better.

Sprinting on Bronze/Silver? Overkill. Sprinting on Gold/Platinum? Too high risk, usually. I'll do it to cross an open area quickly if it can't wait. Usually, it can wait.

Then again, I do play on the Xbox where it's a lot harder to do without dropping.

Edit:  I've never seen anyone else do it on Xbox.  Other posters haven't either, so I'll explain.  I can only do it with the Asari, and it's not a sprint, it's just a sequence of dodges.

I actually saw *name removed* do it on Xbox while we were doing CV's challenges. If I ever get videos up you could see it.

I personally feel that it is outright cheating. It is a clever way to abuse game mechanics that completely defeats the purpose of the objective. It also spawn one of the most horrible hypocritical statements from the devs. "Clever use of game mechanics". That same logic could be applied to missile glitching, but the devs don't look too kindly on that.

I don't do it, but I don't begrudge others doing it either.

If you're not speed running the pizza..don't pick it up. And if you're playing a character that can do it easily and you're not running it...don't pick it up.

Use it and stop making fuss about it.

Nothing wrong with it, I do it all the time. People who can't do it though are better off just walking backwards instead of dropping the pizza every couple of seconds.

It was confirmed by devs to be clever use of game mechanics so not gelling because someone is trying to make the team extract faster doesn't make any sense.

I don't do it. I don't mind others doing it, but if I get to the pizza first I won't drop it for others to do that.

I like to have fun and a bit of challenge in my games.

I watched a Turian Ghost or T.Havok do it on the SoxBox.
I wanted to know how to do it .3. Only because as a krogan I am head bobbing all the way to the delivery point. (or walking backwards as anything that can't hit their way there)
I suppose I'll never learn, but that's for the best. If there is any glitch I *would* exploit it would be a movement one.
(It's personal. This is probably why my fav kit is fury. Movement bonus; through wall tp)

I have one friend that can do it really well. I can't and don't bother trying lol. If my character is the logical choice to carry that pizza then I'll go for it. Or if no one else even bothers to try.

I just want to point out that the Bioware Mods have said that it is a clever use of game mechanics, and is one of the only bugs in the game that is beneficial and completely safe and easy to use.

No one's been banned for running with the pizza, and people do it about 80-90% of the time on PC. The only people that don't really do it there are the people that are newbies and don't know how.

::Edit::

For the people that don't know how to use it, for PC you hold the space bar with the pizza until you start to sprint. As soon as you are, start tapping the space bar. You will keep running, and you will constantly keep dropping and picking up the pizza. It's the same thing on xbox and ps3 I believe, except you use the A and the X button respectively (assuming those are the spring buttons).

I think it's a bit cheap ... but I'll certainly resort to it if the team is ... unreliable.

The sound is annoying as all hell. But if someone can do it, then I guess that's one less thing to worry about.

Don't care. I can't pull it off reliably off-host anyway and if others want to do it then that's fine. :P

I haven't got a problem with it. It's like reload canceling: if the player has the skills to pull it off kudos to them.

Nope

And yes I know Bioware said it's a "clever use of game mechanics", and still no
