Smuggler's Hideout Skip - Bioshock Speedrunning

[SylvesterFox007]

You just ran right past Atlas!

Should have shot him in the back.  He'd do the same to you.

i know he betrays you and everything but was his family actually in there or was this just another hoax in his elaborate plan?

Moira can you here me in there? i cracked up the sub was...... destoyed

Hot Damn! I've done it! Ignore my last message about this not being possible opn the 360 because it is. You have to turn your sensitivity very high up in order to do this.

I approached the control switch, walked backwards and hit it while i spun around and started to run fowards (because you don't run as fast while walking backwards) and I got through the gate before it shut.

Didn't even have to crouch! Boy am I happy, now time to work on the Point Prometheus skip.

That's awesome, man. Never knew that about the backwards speed on 360. Overcoming these seemingly deal-breaking problems one at a time and finally getting the result is an awesome feeling, I know.

I'm messaging you something about the potential Proving Grounds skip because it's too long to post in a comment.

My gosh you're right! I tried this about two dozen times, and finally got it. The true key was very subtle in your words, but I picked up on it and tried it. The key that needs to be emphasized is that when you start rotating, the text that says "Control Panel - Press 'A' to use" sticks around for a short while even AFTER you're no longer looking at the control panel. Press it then, and you make it through the door fine.

I'll try doing this on the 360 since now we know you don't have to crouch.

Moira, can you hear me in there??..The sub! No!!!
