Army of Two: the 40th Day - retry glitch in Chapter 2 pt. 2
4Rest of the glitch effects from Chapter 2. To see how this glitch is started, see the retry glitch video for Chapter 1.
---
0:00 - Chapter 2-10. The next door won't open, so you're stuck in the area. Asking your ally to move onward causes him to run towards the door endlessly.
(Not on the video: Chapter 2-11. Things seem to work like normal.)
0:23 - Chapter 2-12. No NPCs have spawned. This includes both enemies, who should be attacking you right now, as well as the female hostage who you escort out of the area during the set piece.
Things get more strange once you backtrack and hit a cutscene trigger from previous Checkpoint that shows you the area and does in fact spawn enemies and the hostage to the area. But... something's not right with them.
0:56 - so, the enemies. The most obvious strange thing about them is that they lack A.I. and stand around entirely passive. If you try to attack them, you'll also find out that they're invulnerable to damage. Doing insta-kills like melee or neck snap to them makes them pop right back up again, often in t-pose. The only normal interaction to be had with these guys is either holding them hostage or tying them. They're also a massive distraction to your A.I. partner, who seems to enjoy tormenting them a little too much.
1:51 - meanwhile, the hostage herself is sitting tied up in air. If you melee her, she is knocked free and begins covering against nearby obstacles instead. She refuses to be escorted through the area, though, and therefore you can't get her to open up the gate to the next part of the map... so you're stuck.
2.18 - ally is still having fun with those invulnerable doofuses.
3:08 - Chapter 2-13. There should be a moving platform set piece here. But having done the glitch, nothing happens and you're stuck.
3:25 - Chapter 2-14. Things are mostly normal, except some dialogue is missing and the platform our heroes arrived on is invisible.
3:56 - Chapter 2-15. Enemies don't spawn, resulting in a small fight skip. It might not be useful in a speedrun, though, since this is a such a small area.
