Sorry it's not in quicktime, but I though I'd share this little bit of fun that I discovered while going though Fusion again.

Did you do any kind of hacking for that? If not, please tell me how you did it.

No hacking, I just kneeled in the position and the Sa-X couldn't touch me. I think it only works on that spot though.

Alright, i've gotta get to that spot now. :( I also have another question: why wasn't the Sa-X shooting open the gate thingie it was shooting towards?

Good thing its beam doesn't have a "flare" in front of it.

That's awesome, but that's not the only spot. That will also happen during the first SA-X encounter, and I've mentioned it in the glitch topic. I'm in a hurry, so I can't go into details right now.

One shall stand, one shall ball.

That pretty cool, and in response to Gleepdiddy's question, I think that the gate doesn't open because the game's not coded to have the SA-X shots open gates, just the player's shots.

then why do its super missles open doors?

Gates != doors

That M2k2 guy

and that's an fmv sequence (or whatever). It doesn't need to be possible in the game.

I'll be back. Maybe...

They don't open doors, anyway. They completely destroy them.

i only seen a door destroyed during that sequence when you go down one of the first elevators. The first chase sequence i recall if you go infront of the SA-X it will open the door for you, instead of destroying it. Hmmm but it prob opens it with its normal beam weapon. If anyone is clever enough could you have the SA-X shoot to the right, then jump over it, making it fire a missile at the door, to see if it just opens it, or just goes through the door seamlessly? That would be a interesting stunt, but i wonder....

DAMNIT! I can't see anything! I can only hear it!

Of course the missiles destroy doors; like the one in TRO after the Bombs, the one on the way back from Zazabi, at least one of the ones before BOX-1, and in a few other places (possibly some of the ARC ones before Nightmare, though most of those were Nightmare itself. Some other bits of terrain were also destroyed by the Super Super Missiles e.g. the ventilation tunnel on Ops Deck that leads to Arachnus, the cables in the same place, some of the cables in AQA, and the data room in TRO (I think; I never actually went back there, but Adam says so, and I trust him on that, if nothing else)

Supuh

2005-04-20 04:15:43 pm

dont trust adam, its not good for you

why doesnt someone jump so the ice hits them in mid air, but when they fall, the missle passes through them, so we can see if not or true?

I would SO buy one, if I could find one somewhere.

I know...it's one of those things that you must get! Even if you aren't Catholic...and now that I think of it...especially if you aren't Catholic...

arkarian

red chamber dream

Lol, why would you get it if you're Catholic? Christians (like me) would want one.

EDIT: If you're looking for the responses to this post, go here.

Otherwise, back on-topic, please.

Even though I'm an atheist, I would so get one of those!

But back to the topic, when you're kneeled before the SA-X, try morphing into a ball... :D
