I have no idea why though as you can see the dragon born sprint in the trailer and even if you didn't watch the trailer surely they watch some Skyrim youtube videos and see someone sprinting?

    Brought back some memories just seeing barrier breaking mentioned. I well remember doing the invisibility glitch on Jacinto and Hail, which yeah wasn’t too fun for the other team. My favourite multiplayer memories was when players on the other team would glitch out, but I would glitch out to the same spot and kill them. Great feeling to say the least. Jacinto in particular was tricky, as your actual body would move and fall outside the map while being invisible, if you rolled the same way too many times

    Bro i literally bought an xbox 360 2 weeks ago to play online co-op with myself. I started barrier breaking with the chainsaw jam desync glitch used in multiplayer. I found alot of cool stuff out of bounds. You can make some pretty easy skips
    You can rejion the other party when you go down a split trail. If you simply chainsaw jam out of the map in a spot with no collision behind it, you will fall through the map and spawned back with the other player. However this will most likely soft lock you.
    You can actually walk stright up to the brumak when esscorting dizzy through the motor teams. If you chainsaw break on one of the balconies.

      @@Flurby I'm planning on recording my findings. I'll probably post some stuff just for archival purposes. I have to get a capture card or something to record what i find, as the chainsaw desync is only reliable on an actual xbox 360. I've done this with 2 modern xbox's and it is almost impossible. However the 360 connects to 3G network and the xbox can connect to modern routers just fine. This the better setup to do this than having 2 xbox 360s on the same network.

    This is sick, I've always been more of a gears guy than a halo guy, but I decided to speedrun halo games instead because I thought it had more interesting exploits. It looks like Gears also has a lot of fun stuff to try even in single player, I thought it would have been limited to co-op lag-based glitches. If they ever release a pc version of this game I'll definitely learn a lot of this stuff!

    @Pinkarmada01 22 дні тому

    Quick question bot sure if you covered it in this vid yet but, one of the main and noticeable improvements was when the characters get into combat, they noticeablely run faster automatically like the animations speed up. Example your roadie run is faster than the non combat roadie run, is there any comparisons or techniques used for this?

    • @Flurby
      @Flurby  20 днів тому

      I don't think it's actually combat, but certain actions cause the faster animation after, like dodge rolling or up A-ing from a corner. We of course try to have the best movement that we can, but most of the time the fastest thing is just a straight line with rolls. There's not really enough useful terrain to do anything super fancy in most cases. Campaign maps aren't built like multiplayer

      With how popular the glitching scene was for this game, I honestly doubt it. All known methods of generalized barrier breaking need online lag. It's possible we're talking about different things.
      If you have a video or even a good text description about what you might have found then that would be very valuable. If it's just like "jump through this specific wall with a Boomshield", I wouldn't call that a barrier breaker.
