I just found out how to do the sliding glitch. its really easy. all you have to do is to have a really short replay and then switch weapons to the chainsaw and at the exact same time play the replay. you can also take phonecalls and use weapons while sliding.

"its really easy" ¤Fails it 5 times in a row in the video

It happened :))

Is this actually useful?

Yes, kinda. You can skip getting the ruger on Guardian Angels and slide for the Diaz call before Chase and Sonny call after Chase. It's around 3-4 seconds saved. Not a huge deal, but still, a timesave is a timesave.

warning: it's not as cool as it sounds.

Pros:

• You save like 1-2 seconds maximum

Cons:

• Hard to time killings of the last 2 dudes before the cutscene where the haitians take the money. Also slow.

• If you're slow to the gate, you lose time setting up the glitch.

• If you fail to slide first try, you lose more time in replays.

• You can't break the door off during the Diaz call.

• If under the north bridge, you won't get to the heli before the call ends.

just... meeeeh.

Probably worth noting that switching to any weapon except fist/grenades works.

At least with a PCJ for Riot it should be faster to drive back and do this instead of doing the death warp.

Huh, so ruger skip is meeeeeeeeehhhhhhhhhhh? Kinda expected it tbh.
