What the hell game is this? The main character appears to be fighting a war against shrapnel. I understand how the glitch happens, it's a healing animation, and him "drowning" reduces his health, which he then recovers when he comes up for air. But some of those animations were strangely stomach churning.

redmercer posted:Apologies because it's Angry Video Game Nerd, but, well, just LOOK at this. Did EVERY copy of Rocky for the PS2 do this or did he get a weird press? A different glitch plagued all copies of this Rocky game I believe. There was a crouching jab move that you could perform, and the AI just could not loving deal with it. You could hammer away at that one button and the AI would just run into it, over and over.

Had one happen just last night playing SW:TOR. For those that are unaware, you get a companion character to fight along side you that has some pretty basic path following programmed. For some reason, they don't really "get" elevators and will usually wait at one end, and then instantly teleport to meet you at the other. No big deal. However, last night, I made it to the bottom of a long elevator and immediately entered combat. I managed to kill off the enemies before my companion made it down (the don't teleport during combat). So, I'm looting and waiting for my companion, who up until now has had just fine path finding, and watch as he comes off the elevator, runs to me, runs into some environmental object, and then falls over dead. It's not like he ran into some poisonous space cactus either. It was a space fork lift IIRC. Still pretty entertaining.

Brother Jonathan posted:Edit: And I found one example of "emergent behavior" from an interview with the developer: "The one that always comes to mind is the executioner story, where the hammerer was injured, couldn't hold his hammer, and so bit the prisoner to death and then walked around with the guy's arm in his mouth for years." See, it's stuff like this that makes me enjoy stories from DF or SS13. You probably wouldn't get stories quite like this from some AAA title with a million dollars tied up in it and fantastic graphics. Skyrim's glitches sometimes come close, but there's just something so much more enjoyable about these tales that require me to picture the events myself.

Gorilla Salad posted:I just remembered a couple from Thief: Deadly Shadows. Now that game had a lot of problems as the PC version was a pretty lovely console port, but one thing which stood out was that guards could occasionally accidentally kill themselves with their own swords. Since you weren't actually causing the damage, did those deaths count against you and your rating?

I think that this is less a glitch and more a cheat, but what the hell. Read about it in the SR4 thread. In Saints Row 4, there is an achievement to jump from the roof of the Three Count Casino (Southwest part of the map) to the Power Plant building (Northwest corner), without touching the ground or a different rooftop. It's not too hard to do normally if you've maxed out your running, jumping, gliding abilities, because wall running is A-ok. But, in this game you have the ability to call in vehicles from thin air, including hovercraft. So, apparently, you can jump, pause in midair to call in a VTOL (which you spawn inside immediately), fly it over to the power plant and then get out and have it count for the achievement.

BiggerBoat posted:What lends wrestling games to this level game breaking weirdness? I've never programmed a wrestling game, but here's how I imagine it. When you get into the meat of the gameplay, a lot of it breaks into one of two categories - Grapple or Strike. A straight strike is simple, punch or kick your opponent. A grapple then gets more complicated, and in most of the games I've played it breaks into button combinations that have you do strike a, strike b, throw 1, throw 2, hold 1, hold 2. You put in the combination that you want, and out pops the canned animation. Repeat until the end of the match. And in simple terms, that's similar to how a fighting game works. You and your opponent are fighting in a 2D plane, trading blows and power moves until one lifebar is depleted. But, when you add a small 3D fighting area, location sensitive changes to animation, and different rules, the computer can get more easily confused. In the corner, R1 will make you climb the ropes, unless it's a tag match, in which case it tags your partner in. Unless your opponent is within a 5ft radius of your partner, in which case he's going to be busy throwing illegal punches, possibly disqualifying you. Unless the ref is knocked out. It's a lot for the computer to juggle, and that's one fairly common situation that might arise in a game. And mistakes are probably very common, but there are error checks where rather than simply blowing up or shutting down, the game logic makes a best guess as to what should happen, and 90% of the time gets it right. The glitches happen when the logic encounters an error, and puts the wrong value out. That's when you get weird things like Big Show teleporting out of the ring and about a block away from the arena. So instead of him entering the ring and the system showing him at x:50 y:50 z:20, it moved him to something crazy like x:500 y:50 z:20.

I was killed last night in Mass Effect 3 by a Keeper. For people unfamiliar, story-wise Keepers are semi-sentient bug like aliens that work on the main hub/space station. In game, they do nothing but stand around. You can't talk with them, you don't really interact with them, and they usually just stand in the same spot, acting as an obstruction. In Mass Effect 3, there are a lot of incidental conversations you can overhear to help flesh out just how hosed everyone is. I walked up to a pair of soldiers who were just shooting the poo poo, when I'm knocked back about 10 feet by some invisible force. This is a non-combat area, so what the hell? Turns out it's a Keeper, slowly meandering his way back to his normal resting place. Well, there was no reason for me to stick around anyway, so I tried to maneuver around it, so I could get back to my ship. He was having none of that bullshit. As I run past him, he apparently shoulder checks me so he's in his normal spot, and I go tumbling over the guardrail into the black emptiness of glitch land. Commander Shepard, conqueror of the Geth, uniter of all races, scourge of the Reapers, and Regent of Right Hook, was taken out by the ME equivalent of a Gonk Droid.

They didn't really care that I just came out of a restricted area... just that I came out of it crouched. Same thing happened to me because I was exploring before getting the quest to investigate there. Whole casino aggroed on me for just sneaking around. Does NV not do that "Wait 3 in game days for NPCs to cool off" thing that was in 3?

I think, for me at least, hearing/reading the stories is so much better than playing SS13 or DF because my mind makes such a vivid picture that frankly, the games themselves are far too simple graphically to convey. Like the stories about the robot butts that kept screaming butts (or was it FART?) over the PA. Or the horrors or The Cluwne. I might be mixing stories.

I think the settlement building would be better if it was both smaller and larger. Smaller in that you should only have maybe 4 or 5 settlements to build up. The fort, the drive in, maybe the first location, then one or two out west. Make it so when Preston says "Go help a settlement" It's going to be one I'm already invested in. Don't make me juggle a dozen locations, especially if there's no real consequence. If I abandon a settlement - then I want raiders or mutants to take it over - and raze it to the ground. Unless I go back, kill the bad guys and do something, then I want that area to stay "dead". If I'm the only person capable of rescuing every new settlement in the commonwealth, then some are going to lose. Larger as in don't limit me to 100 items. I played on PC so it was something that could be corrected with mods, and that's better. But it's really stupid to say "Here's a sandbox, go build something cool", and then limit me to a relative handful of items. And the power stuff is also bullshit. Here's a giant generator. It can power about 5 TVs before getting overwhelmed.

LifeSunDeath posted:There's a ton of good comedy in the game, esp in the optional kills you can do on targets...but yeah, I felt like to get the most out of it you need to be really into perfect runs, or escalation missions, which I'm not into because I don't want to stress that much. Sadly hacks/cheats don't work super good for the game since they have always online, I always wanted a ghost cheat so I could mess around a bunch. Oh on some levels it's possible to kill every NPC on a map, that's a pretty fun thing to do in that game. I've used WeMod (probably a lot of spyware and poo poo, if I'm being honest), and there is a ghost mode cheat, and it works but for some of the triggers you have to turn it off if you want guards to notice things like tossed coins or other interactions. So if you want to play vengeful spirit it's OK, but it sucks a lot of fun and all the challenge out of the game play.

credburn posted:A lot of what I'm reading sounds plausible but does anyone actually know or are we all just speculating about Frownin' Jesus? It's kind of a thing from time to time https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L9REWMEOLdI A typo is a perfectly logical conclusion, but as shown above, poor editing/oversight can also be blamed. There are at least three teams working to bring something like this together: The script writers, the voice actors and anyone directing them, and editors If the script says "Frowning Jesus!" instead of [Frowning] "Jesus!" And nobody caught it or even saw it as a problem, then the script goes on to the voice actor. The actor probably has an entire pile of voice lines to read, and it's probably not his job to question what's on the page - just read it how it's written and let's move on. Again, there is probably a director of some sort who is looking at the same script, but unless he's also on the writing staff, he's not going to question what's on the page. Were the words spoken in the correct order and with the correct delivery? Great. Get it done. And all of this is assuming that the original script is written in the same language it's being recorded for. If there was a translation happening on top of that, that could add yet another layer and opportunity for mistakes. And a lot of this could also be attributed to the dreaded "Crunch" that comes with almost every game now. Everyone works on their corner of the game and gets what they need done, and someone else is goign to stitch it all together. No time for cross referencing to see if it's right, just make sure it's done. Getting all of these bits and pieces to tie together into a working product, on time and on budget- it's incredible that video games are as functional as they are.
