Basically this and whoring the Armory and Crawmerax in the Secret Armory... Got so many epic weapons idk what to do with.Codenet said:
You mean exploited a glitch?
And yes I have. Way back in KOTOR 2 I realized that upgrading your character's stats after leveling up restored all of your health, so I would hold on to my free health restore until I needed it in battle.
Also in Halo 3, on the last level when you're excaping on the worthog and cortona is counting down. Well I discovered that the each count down update is caused by a trigger based on your progression, however there's one place where if you get the right angle off a jump you can skip on of the triggers, so Cortona stops giving you time updates for the rest of te level.
OT: Why would you want to skip that part in CoD4

Nothing off the top of my head, but it IS funny watching an insane AI's probe spaz out when you block off all exits after it's scouted your base.
Starcraft 2, by the way.

that mission isint as hard as you make it out to beFalloutJack said:
just pick up people and toss them in the water or shoot them
OT: the last boss in POP:SOT(original) when the next hit is supposed to kill him he will just stand there.you can run around the room he will just turn and look at you not attack anymore.
This happened a long time ago, when I was a child playing Spyro 2. To collect one of the orbs you have to shoot a super fireball at some target then quickly run into the room (or something), but once I was just messing around and was trying to jump up something that resembled a big tap. After a few attempts, I got stuck, then the whole level acted as though I was underwater, so I could swim around in mid-air. I just swam in through a gap in the roof of the building and collected the orb that way.
Yeah, homing missilies were a pain in the ass -_-AjimboB said:
Speaking of AC4, one the missions when played on hard mode had you fighting 4 mechs at a time. For some reason though if you stayed at the boundary the level the enemies would only come at you one by one. That was pretty helpful
In Banjo-Tooie, I was at the werehouse level (like you do) and I couldn't figure out how to get inside. Of course now, I know tat I need to go there by train, but back then I thought the only way to get inside has to activate a glitch caused by an error in the n64's ram.
First, I chose the Robo Eggs then I shot it at the little hole on the wall. While sanding there, I watch banjo & Kazooie and the monster that was charging toward them. Then, right when the monster hits them you run inside, causing the screen to freeze while the screen transition goes. Then Viola, Banjo & Kazooie appears inside the werehouse instead of the robotic bird via the hole in the wall.
To my knowledge, you can do this with every doorway, and at the time I thought it was the most intuitive puzzle in videogame history: Actually tricking the game console, itself. But later, I found out I was being too smart for the game.

I've actually done alot of footwork into that, for hilarity's sake.OhJohnNo said:
The thing is that, strangely enough, the Yakuza gangs are on the level of the KGB agents and army personnel, leaving the cops in real dutch when trouble comes calling. The ninjas, though... Oh, those black ninjas... Their entire reason for being there in the 1960s is "Go with it.", and so they can do every acrobatic stunt possibly, kill very quickly with their weaponry, and ninja-poof around. The black ninjas seem to have the advantage unless you've got numbers against them, or machine guns, or white ninjas. Even then, they're so evil that the only reason they're black ninjas is that they can't find anything darker than black.
Really. After what I wrote, in detail, from memory, you retort with two sentences. Clearly, I must have no idea what I'm- PFFFFFFT! Hah, good one.direkiller said:
No, seriously. What you say just isn't true. You see, I tried that, and it's fine with the prior-and-similar missions. Kill everything. Usually very good with Crypto. This time? Not so much. They have Crypto's one weakness here (besides Coyote Bongwater): Numbers. They have numbers and you can't leave the general area because you're protecting something that is inherently weak and entirely defenseless. It's alot of little targets and cars, which has enough force to get by a single Furon soldier and ruin the mission, coming at these buildings. Don't tell me "No, it's easy.". That is a lie. They can beat you, and they can beat you GOOD. Sometimes, you have to think outside the Furon, and that is why I'm good at games.
I know the mission your talking about. I have never died on it doing it normally on the ground or in the air. It just isint as hard as your makeing it out to be.FalloutJack said:
1.Air:Use the landing spot 10 feet from the mission accept hop in and have a field day use the abduction ray if there too close to the building to shoot with the laser but they shouldn't get that close anyway(it makes the mission way to easy)
2. Ground:zap-o-matic is your buddy as it makes 3 people stop shooting it may not kill as fast as your outer guns but it takes the most people out of the fight. Just keep on moving and liberal use of the jetpack when the Black ninjas show up(at that point they only toss throwing stars at you which do almost no damage) protect never hurt as it give you extra damage and someone to take shots for you.
I had more trouble finding the hidden items in the first game at area 52 as the furron awaken dudes are a pain to kill
but that did remind me of how broken the last boss was in the first game. You can just fly up on the octagon and drop ion grenades on her she will just cartwheel into the building trying to get to you. Its mostly just for giggles because she doesn't hit that hard to begin with she just moves around way to much
This is actually an acceptable tactic on Reach, unless you have a needler or needle rifle on hand to blow it's back plate off easily (what's that? No you never get rocket launchers when the damn things are actually useful) punching it is one of the best ways of doing damage.Koroviev said:
Now if only I could figure out how to reliably get behind them.. their new attacks and AI are/is hard! Even on easy!!
This is something scripted into the game to happen, but it makes me giggle every time.
I remember playing JaK three, there is a wasteland village where those banished from Haven city stayed. I would love hitting one of the thugs, then hiding behind the next closest person, and continually doing that. I'd have the whole freaking town fighting each-other. It literally wouldn't end until everyone was gone.

Its not really something amazing but regardless in Champions of Norrath and Return to Arms both games on the PS2 you could load in yourself drop items and gear then pick it up on a co-op player and trade those items to the reloaded in original player. In short you could copy your items to duel wield or sell over and over again for infinite money.
Once I did that it kinda ruined the game for me sadly... cheating suxs sometimes....
