God of War II: lag-related glitches

Wow.

PR FAIL.

0:25. That was never going to work. MotK from an Icarus Lift.

Weird stuff, my old disc was a little dodgy around the TMIII area.

>>0:25

Perhaps, but if it would've worked, it would've saved time. Going to see if some other semi-low ledges could be got to without launches.

[addaminsain]

I was under the impression that H/IJ had to be from a launch. Otherwise you just get the "Blades Sledge effect"

[AKheon]

Nah. A mere jump + MotK can get quite high, and it can be followed by a new jump like usual.

[addaminsain]

I sit corrected

[n3obuddha]

which makes me wonder what I was doing wrong with DJ+MotK as I kept getting the 'Blades Sledge' effect ):

[addaminsain]

No offence to AKheon but I was certain Ascension was required.

Otherwise the IJ would be a matter of doublejump, MotK, doublejump, Motk and this is not the case.

Am I missing something?

[AKheon]

@ both n3o and insain: Two jumps has always been the limit. However, the thing I was talking about, which is jump + MotK, switch, jump can yield decent height too (or jump + MotK, switch, jump + MotK, glide).

[addaminsain]

got it.

Thanks for clarifying

[n3obuddha]

Aha! got it. So it's not really that efficient, I guess. Only advantage being that ascension makes Kratos move forward a bit and can be tricky if you're on a narrow ledge or something.

[AKheon]

Ascension is immune to gravity: you can walk straight past the ledge with impunity. But like all lauches, it takes about a second to resolve, and in case of low ledges, it would be faster to use a normal jump + MotK, etc.
