Crysis 2 - some water glitches
1I've seen a video or two where people swim on ground in Crysis 2... I have no idea how to do that glitch, but in the meanwhile here are some other water mechanics glitches.
I: entering water with customization-menu open, the menu won't close down. Instead it just glitches up. The menu graphics collapse in on themselves as the gun disappears from Alcatraz's hands. You can still change the gun settings around, but I can't remember if any changes made now actually carry on to when you get out of water.
II: something similar happens with the upgrades-menu. The menu graphics stay overlaid on Alcatraz's hand that is now in the swimming animation. When you get out of water, Alcatraz takes out a weapon and then you can use the upgrade-menu while armed...
The weapon Alcatraz takes out isn't always the same you currently have active. The game seems to have inconsistency regarding your active weapon when you go in and out of water...
III: if you jump into water and buffer the upgrade-menu during your jump, Alcatraz will open the menu underwater. This is slightly odd my itself, but when you now close the menu, Alcatraz will take out his weapon out underwater! With some fiddling, you can take out anything underwater, even grenades or C4.
This can't exactly be called underwater combat since your actions are really limited at the moment. Can't shoot, melee, customize or switch weapons. You can only aim or reload. But at least it looks pretty cool.
Sometimes while holding a gun out underwater, Alcatraz's feet are always visible. They do their slow pointless paddle and you can see them even on the water surface, which looks very strange. Rarely the feet are also angled to a wrong direction, giving the impression that Alcatraz's torso is contorted... the feet are too far to the left to be seen very well like this, though. Also, if you sprint underwater, Alcatraz's gun holding hands move as if he was sprinting on ground.
If you swim on surface, aiming is displaced. The gun is far lower than it should be, causing Alcatraz to zoom in while missing the gun's scope entirely.
IV: as a bonus clip... yet another enemy stuck to walls.
