Any glitch that has to do with character ragdolls or physics or crazy AI are the best things. That baseball video someone posted was hilarious. As was Big Show literally worming his way back into the fight. One of my favorite glitches of recent years is probably one of the most well known ones, but worth mentioning; the GTA IV swingset glitch. It's such a shame Red Dead Redemption didn't have this. I wanted to catapult my horse over the Rio Grande.

gooby on rails posted:I'm not sure if I'm playing AC3 wrong or just not for long enough; it hasn't been very glitchy for me at all. The parkour is slightly less smooth than the previous titles, and once the camera got stuck looking at the ground after petting a cat (and corrected itself a few seconds later), but from reading these threads I should be expecting The Elder Scrolls: New England. Speaking of Skyrim, I'm surprised there are so few Skyrim glitch videos here considering the game is pretty much the most glitchy and broken thing I've ever encountered.

I had an interesting glitch while playing Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood when I first got it. Of course the very first thing you do once you're free to explore is climb the tallest building closest to you which I went to do, but instead of climbing normally with the normal animations, Ezio literally ragdolled up the building. It looked ridiculous with his arms and legs flailing around in a rubbery fashion while he steadily went up the side of the tower, slumping over the edge and lying there for a tiny moment before getting up into his normal animations. I haven't been able to recreate it and it only happened that one time.

Not particularly a funny glitch, but Gran Turismo 2's European version had a glitch where you could get 101% completion. To get 100%, one requirement was to collect every car in the game, Vauxhall being one of the manufacturers. Now, the UK, Vauxhall is basically the same car as Opel, a German car. What I discovered was that if you changed the game's language from English to German, all Vauxhalls in the game would be replaced by Opels without you losing the Vauxhalls you owned. This allowed you to buy or win every Vauxhall car in the game, switch the language, and buy and win all the Opels in the game which made your completion percentage go above 100%. I think my game's still sitting at 101.6% completion or something.

I don't know why but going over 100% completion is a pretty neat bug to me, mostly because of the kinds of game breaking it requires usually. Also in Gran Turismo 3, if you had the Suzuki Escudo (by far the fastest car in the game), there was a certain track you could go to and accelerate on a straight towards a wall and sometimes go through it, which allowed you to go beyond the bounds of the track to an endless open area. If tuned in a certain way and with enough space, the Escudo could accelerate to absolutely insane speeds; just holding down the gas for a while caused it to effectively pop a wheelie and accelerate to over 1,000km/h. The speed record is still logged on my copy of GT3. E: Turns out someone beat my record and then some: this poor quality video shows a guy using the same car and same glitch to do 2147483647km/h which is the second highest number the PS2 can calculate and faster than the speed of light.

I still don't know how the hell they made the Mardi Gras level in Hitman: Blood Money on the PS2. It ran perfectly on my lovely PC at the time, too. The crowd was just as detailed as other characters in the game (though they lacked ragdolls) with AI and everything.

Yeah, I thought it would be something clever like that. It's still pretty impressive playing the HD version too. Obviously Absolution has it beat by miles with the Chinatown and Chicago levels, for instance.

Not really a glitch, but more of an oversight in WoW I found way back in The Burning Crusade, they added (or moved) a world boss called Doom Lord Kazzak that players could just find hanging out in the world and fight whenever. The thing about Kazzak was one of his abilities called Mark of Kazzak: quote:Mark of Kazzak: Casts a non-curable debuff on a random player in range with mana. It will drain the target's mana for 5% of his total mana per second and explodes for 5,000 Area of Effect (AoE) damage when there is no more mana to drain. Lasts 8 seconds. Which basically means your mana gets drained and if you're below a certain percentage of mana when you get the mark, you'll explode and deal 5,000 damage to yourself and everyone else around you. At that time I played a paladin, a mana-using class with an ability called Divine Shield which makes you immune to all damage for around 10 seconds. What I'd do is go where Kazzak was, stay as far from him as I could (a boss-level enemy could easily kill me in one hit), engage him, burn some mana and wait/hope for him to cast Mark of Kazzak while he made his way over to me. If I got it, I'd immediately use Divine Shield and start teleporting to my home city while Kazzak stood there, beating at my invincible rear end. Upon arriving at an inn in Stormwind (or any crowded city) I'd run out to where everyone usually gathered, a mailbox or such and let myself blow up. With the help of a few other paladins, we suicide bombed the bank and mailbox until the ground was covered with corpses and skeletons. Soon after, Mark of Kazzak was patched so it would disappear if you left the zone where he was. Good call.

I love ragdoll physics in games, especially Euphoria. I think it's the biggest landmark in gaming tech since going 3D. But that video mostly reminds of how characters in GTAV are made of glass and the tiniest physics fuckery kills you stone dead which just prohibits all the fun. They should've made that stuff do way, way less damage than it does. I mean, they even have a dedicated ragdoll button in the game (except in multiplayer which is why multi sucks).

I think fall damage is fine to have in an open world game and an involuntary animation every time you got near an edge might screw you over for each time you actually wanted to jump off a cliff for whatever reason. That said, some kind of a mechanic to lessen if not eliminate fall damage would be a good solution. Press crouch to make your character roll, or something else to deploy a parachute, whatever. That way you'd still have the option to leap off a mountain and pancake yourself on the ground.

No evidence sadly as I forgot to take a screenshot, but I'm playing the 2009 Ghostbusters game on my PC and there's an interesting glitch where any water there is transforms into a spiky, undulating and escalating nightmare until it fills the entire screen. The sewer level is just a dark, spiky mess that calms down if I look away and goes loving bananas if I turn to face it, starting off with small spikes of the water texture going up and down, up and down, growing with each cycle until it fills the screen. My PKE meter appears to think it's all hunky dory.

The Decima engine (Horizon Zero Dawn/Death Stranding) does some interesting things with AI pathfinding in that it's completely dynamic and doesn't require really any manual setting unless you want to be specific. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hKqQ4XPWJcQ The AI is free to move around in areas that are blue which get blocked out in realtime if an object is moved or added.
