Crysis 2 - glitches and observations pt. 1
1Nothing too major here, mostly just random stuff and some mechanics glitches along the lines of your usual Glitches and Observations-video.
I: one of the enemy soldier uniforms became pink if I watched it from too close.
II: if you charge jump into air with Air Stomp enabled but disable the skill before landing, the text saying "Air Stomp" will get stuck on the screen indefinitely.
III: if you open up upgrade-menu right as you start charging a Power Kick, Alcatraz will do a half-hearted power kick that drains no energy at all but doesn't seem to have as much power as a normal power kick.
IV: if you have a box inside a dumpster, you can stand on it and Power Kick the container you are currently inside of. Unfortunately this doesn't seem to cause crazy physics side effects.
V: there are many, many, many different ways to glitch up the weapon customization screen in a way or another. Here's one of them. Pick up a weapon as you're entering weapon customization, and Alcatraz will hold out the wrong weapon in the customization mode. Usually this doesn't have any effects, but in rare cases you can in fact switch scope of the wrong weapon and it effects your active weapon. A clip of this might be shown in the future.
VI: switching weapons and opening and closing the upgrade-menu with a certain timing causes Alcatraz to switch weapons but the HUD keeps showing the data of his old weapon.
VII: this game has some glitch-control triggers before important cutscenes or events. Touching a trigger like this forces Alcatraz to lower his gun and he can only slowly walk from there. However, you can rush into a trigger like this and open the upgrade-menu despite the glitch control. This can cause a serious side effect in the game, causing the HUD to become (almost) permanently disabled.
VIII: the rest of the video is basically some more info about the disabled HUD glitch. While it is active, you can't see your ammo count or any other data that is normally on the screen. Using Visor is also 100% useless since it stops showing any data. The checkpoint text also disappears... and that's all the effects I've noticed so far. Finally the glitch ends once you enter next level.
