I don't see that the current glitchless run can get much more optimised so this is the natural progression from that anyway. I'm interested in seeing how quickly / easily these things can make the game, and it doesn't invalidate anything achieved so far.
I failed at trying to recreate the resort despawn today, but at least I do now have a save from the start of that area to play with. I don't think it was PS3 I did it on but it was ages ago and maybe.. All I managed to do was find an area you can stand on air woo. http://imgur.com/Cz7IwlR Anyway if I find out how to reliably recreate that despawn I'll post here again, otherwise will lurk as don't want to clog this thread up.
This game is gonna get so broken. Finish under 10 minutes. We probably need another "no fight skip" category" ;).
I think the camera influencing despawns would explain the resort despawn, hope I can get some time to try that out. It should be easy to test as the enemies start talking when they spawn. There are a few nooks around the horse which you could potentially push the camera through.
I'm presuming that due to the way photo mode works you can't force the matter using that?
I had a suggestion about your Tommy's Dam skip, TheThrillness.
Is the issue that you are too high to hit a checkpoint? If you dive under water before Joel t-poses can you get low enough to get one? Or will he still drown.
I tried recreating it on PS4 but failed, not sure if that's me being useless or it being a PS3 only thing.
So myself, MattMatt and TheThrillness have been hard at work trying to skip the Sewers Section. Here is one of the three OOB glitches we've found:
Credit to Matt for even trying this area and the initial idea, credit to Thrillness for actually getting OOB with a different method and then I found this. It should be pointed out that Matt found an alternative method that is somewhat easier I suppose...
So yeah, community: what can you do with this?
So, all credits to TheThrillness for helping me getting the Financial District Skip 2.0 to work on PS4. Here's the video:
Ever since last weeks' PS4 system update, I'm having trouble doing the Hotel V2 Skip. Anyone else running into this?
So, this happened to me today. Trying to get it to work now. So video shows how to to the hotel skip + fin district part 2 skip w/ just 1 glitch, instead of 2. Or maybe i was lucky. Seemed to be luck though, either the game crashed or went on to the regular skip
I found a little glitch on Bus Depot, before you go into the tunnel. The bow is very glitchy. I think there are many many other spots where you can climb up like this. You get the bow very early in the game so maybe some skips or other glitches are possibile with the bow. I will hunt glitches in a few weeks.
Great find Yoranto! This sure is gonna make a few skips possible. You need a diagonal surface don't you?
As of 15th August 2024, David Glitch - the one that skips the in-game cutscene and falsely allows you to keep your brick/bottle - is not allowed anymore for Glitchless categories (PS4 exclusive glitch). It is suggested to restart the encounter as soon as Ellie enters the restaurant to prevent th
