Battlefield 3 - OoB tests in Comrades office area
2I made Kazooie play Battlefield 3 the other day because misery loves company, and as a result here are some OoB explorations in the mission Comrades (specifically the green office area towards the end of the level).
0:00 - an extremely simplistic way to go out of bounds here, wouldn't be surprised if it was already known. After your teammates have kicked the door open to the offices, go through to the other side and then jump on top of the door and from there to the roof.
However, this OoB has one glaring problem: it stops working after you hit the next loading trigger (not long into the corridor) and the game shuts the door behind you.
0:12 - an alternative, not nearly as simple way to go out of bounds here. Go to this spot and shoot a hole in the breakable wall in front of the computer near the roof level. This enables you to vault towards it from on top of the computer. Then, after vaulting do a light sprint jump to get on top of a pretty slippery part on top of the wall. From here you can jump on the room's walls and walk on their seams wherever you want.
Note that both of these OoBs are only possible because this environment doesn't have a roof for some reason. There is no known way to breach roofs in this game, I think.
0:31 - using seam walking, you can bypass all fight triggers and also the loading trigger for the next area. As a result at the next double doors there is nothing awaiting but emptiness.
0:54 - using the latter OoB method it's possible to load the next area while still getting out of bounds. Unfortunately it's not possible to seam walk past the closed door because on both sides there are obstacles or a lack of seam to walk on which prevents you from doing this. So, thus far it's impossible to do a skip here.
1:19 - exploring the streets can yield some interesting sights.
1:43 - there is some type of a weird temporal warp on the streets of Paris, and the sun / cloud position and lighting changes rapidly depending on your elevation. Looks otherworldly.
2:30 - a very determined enemy made his way into out of bounds just to fight us.
2:45 - some freaky looking floor with overlapped lighting / textures.
(Note: normally while exploring the streets during the office fight most of it is unloaded. But I believe if you do a parking hall fights skip early in the level, more of the street area is loaded and you can even return near where you started the level from.)
