how do we know real life doesnt also crash on 256 points? We've only had a game that gone to 222.

Funny enough there is another Jon Bois video that covers this problem (not the 222 one, although he does have a video on that) - in the Troy State vs. DeVry game, they run into a problem with the scoreboard when Troy breaks 200 points because the scoreboard they had was not actually set up to display three full digits - it's basically a two digit scoreboard with an extra 1 in the front that can be turned on. It has no way to display a number that's above 199.

Last night I was playing NHL21 in Be a Pro mode. I went to the bench after my shift and skipped until my next shift. When the game resumed, the camera went to the bench view but I couldn't see anyone on the ice and my player never jumped on. At first I thought there had been a call just before I could get on the ice, so I waited, but the game never seemed to resume and the commentators were still going at it, so I got worried that the game just kept going but the camera was stuck. I paused the game, went into the replay theatre, and it turns out that it wasn't the case: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qd7Va5HOgBc Sorry for lack of audio and lovely watermark. Edit: Just so you know what's an edit and what's the game going crazy: For the first few seconds the face-off starts as usual, but then both teams teleport inside the boards in front of their respective bench and start doing this weird Silent Hill shuffle for about 10 seconds before all being teleported again to the center of the rink and exploding in a mess of bodies who finally all scatter to their usual positions, including both goalies and 3 referees.

Last night I was playing the FF6 Pixel Remaster and got to the top of Kefka's Tower and fought the Magic Master. I started out by casting Reraise on Terra. The battle was wonky because he's supposed to have like 56,000 HP, but I hit him with a couple of Blizzaras, he hit me with Firagas that bounced off me, and then the game was like "WELP DONE WITH THIS poo poo" and hit me with his Ultima final attack. This is all fine and good, part of the script, though hella shorter than I remember it being. It killed my entire party, but Terra didn't reraise. They all stayed dead. I won the battle, and was able to move down the tower until I hit another enemy, until the game properly noticed "hey you're dead" and ended it for me. I came back and everyone was still dead. Thank God I had some Phoenix Downs or there is no way I could have exited that place. My best guess is casting the reraise activated a trigger on the backend, but for whatever reason the script didn't follow through if the battle ended before it was cast. Weird glitch tbh but it could have been kinda fun anywhere else.

Sounds like a new flavor of an existing bug for the PR. It makes sense in that it's just evaluating during combat if everyone is dead so if a script manages to avoid, skip, or ignore that for the moment there's the ability to get back to the map with everyone dead and the game won't bother to check until you're back in combat again.

Haha yeah, I had that exact same thing happen against Magimaster. It doesn't always happen since I watched someone else play him on youtube and reraise worked for them but it was funny. Against the Umaro fight after he jumped at me I used Palidoor(or whatever they renamed it to) for a laugh and the game got really confused. Umaro landed first but him landing without a target seemed to glitch out and cause his sprite not to appear. Then my party landed but since Umaro was still untargettable their sprites also didn't appear. I couldn't use any abilities, attacks, items, or magic, or the like, the game would just make an error noise when I tried to target them. The game kept announcing abilities Umaro was theoretically trying to use but no animations would play. Sometimes my party's health would go down anyway but not every time. Eventually I just won the battle for no reason I could ascertain, but I suspect, somehow, some of Umaro's attacks were targeting himself when they couldn't properly target my team. But that's just a wild-assed guess.

it's currently apparently only usable in segmented runs, so no edit: most runs these days are either RTA ('real time attack') where you play the game from start to end without any breaks or ILs ('individual levels' ) where you're doing the same thing but with games already split into pieces segmented runs are where you stop at points throughout the game to checkpoint yourself, meaning that the next stretch of game until your next checkpoint is something you can repeat endlessly to get that part done as fast as possible -- you get a faster overall run but you stop risking losing a run by attempting risky strategies flatluigi has a new favorite as of 01:35 on Apr 13, 2022 |

even if it was usable in RTA, obviously for charity marathon situations the move is to add a donation incentive to force the runner to climb the ladder save the ladder / kill the ladder

The unrestricted category of Elden Ring speedrunning is pretty much all glitches. Dont watch if you haven't finished the game, but its only 7 minutes long and its a hoot. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XuUEk6e1LOE Heres a long explanation by the runner, distorion2 who has been chopping minutes off of his times in the past two weeks. Spoilered just in case as its a very long and tough game if you arent breaking it into little pieces. quote:This time I'm going to give a thorough explanation of what is going on in this category as this run was insane. A different type of run, where you kill some major bosses to gain their remembrances uses this fun glitch to fly all over the map. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jFefJaUi5jU

At about the midpoint of the game, you have to do this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vgaYe4ZYYyY It's one of the most iconic moments in all of video games. If you've played Elden Ring and wondered why people keep leaving messages about snakes around ladders, this is why.

It's after quite a lot of sneaking and tension and one of the tensest boss fights in gaming (at least up to that point) and it's the first time the main theme of the game plays since the opening cinematic as you're on your way to kill your former mentor. It's a pretty big deal. E: Just play it, geez.

It's also iconic because the rhythm of MGS3 works on peaks and troughs, where you always get a moment to calm down after a boss fight. The ladder allows you to catch your breath, and reflect on what you've done.

Yeah Saru is a Metal Gear master, he's done most of the games and messes with the AI in absolutely hilarious ways. Some of his MGS5 videos are downright artful. MGS3 now... is a bit clunky. But it's still good once you adjust to it. The story is fantastic though and it has some of the best boss fights in the series. Give it another shot if you can!

I think Palidoor has several glitches, and I just ran into another one last night. I was on the Veldt and Strago had the cursed shield. I used Palidoor against Holy Dragon and down comes Locke, down comes Relm....... and that's it. Strago was out there in the ether, hitting me with the Healing Rod, and I could target him, but he definitely wasn't on the field at all. It was kind of weird tbh. Didn't affect me none but it was still kinda funny

MGS3's cutscenes are absolutely fine so it's a silly argument. I mean MGS4 pushed it a bit but it's all story that you wouldn't really get through gameplay so whatever.
