God of War - odds and ends
28Some continuations to the ideas explored recently, and some new ideas.
0:00 - BoA flash jump test over the amulet bridge. This jump could still be slightly faster at best.
0:21 - you can get out of bounds in the corridor before first Hydra encounter if you have Lvl. 2 Blades, but it's unlikely this information can ever be used for anything productive.
0:34 - an alternative way to pass the first balancing beams section at Aegean Sea using a hidden ledge.
0:42 - an example of examining a prompt and moving into a cutscene afterward, using your good swimming dash reach for aid. This sort of glitching we haven't really tested before, I think...
1:01 - I tested other potential early swim glitch locations to be certain, and... if we could somehow reach this lower Town Square water pool from out of bounds, we could start swimming glitch here. It seems there are no other early swimming glitch locations.
1:14 - I did some testing if you could do CoA skull early without PR. At least getting out of bounds and this last jump are possible without PR, but the jump into the CoA exit corridor could be problematic. Lvl. 4 Blades might be in order...
1:23 - some more tests with getting infinite red orbs using a save point. On one occasion I managed to get an enemy out of bounds with checkpoint loading...
1:38 - when you create a checkpoint, the game remembers if an enemy is dying, but not at which point their death animation is progressing, This allows an obvious loophole for infinite red orbs. At best this variation could be faster and easier than using petrification, but I should still test this some more with other enemies...
1:59 - I like this one. Examining the cabin door repeatedly while the fluid tutorial message about grappling combat is showing allows you to queue the cabin door message a total of three times. Yes, Kratos examines the door three times in a row all by himself. Not seen on video, but you can examine the door and then run away, and the camera remains fixated on the door and its examination is buffered to happen after the grapple tutorial goes away.
You can also queue in the RotG-message from upgrading Blades for the first time for good measure.
I was curious about what would happen if you could queue multiple amounts of item picking prompts for example. We'll see if that's even possible anywhere.
