Army of Two: the 40th Day - retry glitch in Chapter 5
4Only one video to go after this and the whole game is done! If you want to see how to start this glitch, see the video for Chapter 1 retry glitches.
---
0:00 - Chapter 5-1. Things are otherwise normal, but the prompt to leave the area doesn't work.
0:14 - Chapter 5-2. Enemies don't spawn. In addition, the gate leading to next area also can't be used, so you're stuck in the area.
0:39 - Chapter 5-3. No enemies or civilians spawn. This is technically a fight skip, but I think a speedrun runs past this part without fighting enemies anyway.
(Not on the video: Chapter 5-4. Besides no action music playing, I don't think there are any differences to normal here.)
(Not on the video: Chapter 5-5 and Chapter 5-6. You can't open weapon customization menu, so the glitch isn't possible to do.)
(Not on the video: Chapter 5-7. Things seemed to work out like normal.)
1:09 - Chapter 5-8: enemies and the Russian NPC haven't spawned.
You can do all the activities of the previous checkpoint even now because the bombs and the critical story triggers are active.
1:55 - Just for fun I tried doing things in wrong order: I first completed the previous checkpoint objective of blowing things up, then activated the intro to the sequence of blowing things up. The intro cutscene simply zooms in to the area that's already blown up, which... is nothing too special, I guess.
2:47 - If you play onward in the level after that, you'll find out you're stuck because the Russian NPC is still not around and he's the one that would open the gate to the next area.
