God of War minor glitches & observations pt. 7.

Speedrun-oriented material this time.

I: Ascending ladders at a much faster pace. Also works on ropes - useful when climbing out of Hades (or wherever there are long sets of ladders or ropes).

II: Passing Temple of the Oracle without doing squat to the harpies.

III: When you retry from a checkpoint at this section, the flapping obstacles are always reset to a certain position. You may pass the obstacles even though they are moving, as long as they're either just getting moving or are slowing down.

IV: Due to the animationless nature of Medusa's Gaze, you can shoot with it even when "time's stopped" - when talking to someone, for example. Shows a graphical glitch which happens when being in the MG-stance during frozen time and then upgrading the MG.

V: Utilizing the aforementioned against the first siren you encounter. A glitchy kill, but at least a fast one... You can freeze it to death with the normal type-beam too.

can you try find a bug to go into to temple without finding that damn sirens they are really anoying sorry for my english am dutch

[AKheon]

There is one already. Satvara has a video up.

I actually found the siren cut scene stone last night without watching your vid. And the wall climb jumps during the "save the oracle" puzzle as well. I don't want it to look like I am stealing your credit. I will check more thoroughly before posting videos in the future.

[AKheon]

You're not stealing anything. Anyone could've discovered this stuff and to me it's absurd to claim ownership to "common" information.

[AKheon]

Sorry about the earlier advice, I misread it as "siren part".

I: Very handy 4 savin' time. Now if only I could do it rite.

II: Easy 2 do if ur not interested in collectin' orbs.

III: I noticed this myself as well, again a very handy timesaver.

IV: I just love how this looks, especially after u upgrade it!

V: Yeah, u can do this 2 all sirens actually(if u av regeneratin' magic lol). Strangely enough, it comes up as a "ruined" kill!

[JFCalibur88]

I'm glad we see eye to eye :). Later.
