Was flipping through my steam screenshots, and this one is probably my favourite glitch that I could replicate. (Max Payne 3 in case it wasn't obvious)

Ha this reminds me of a time when I completed New Vegas. It seems like the ending cinematic montage isn't a proper cutscene, because while the slides displayed General Oliver started doing endless laps of my character. Wish I had saved a screenshot or something...

I'm pretty sure I remember reading that the "cutscene" slideshows in New Vegas were handled by teleporting your character to a box floating inside of nothing, locking your view into place and then using one of the projectors to show you the slides. So yeah, you can have all kinds of poo poo happen in there since it's actually still "in-game."

Been playing Red Dead Redemption: Undead Nightmare recently and every now and then, the world just goes bizarre and every NPC or zombie that spawns in will spawn without a head. Makes the game somewhat difficult to play given that headshots are the only reliable way to kill zombies, but oh well.

Half-Life 2 does a similar thing with video screens in-game. For instance, in the first area you can walk around, if you noclip into the sky you can find the room where Dr. Breen's torso is addressing the camera, and dump Barney there.

In FNV's hardcore mode it's possible to starve to death during the end cutscene. Gamebryo, Gamebryo never changes.

Avocados posted:Do you just turn on noclip while you're in there? The game has this bit of code, I think its called SetRestrained - that locks a given character in place. I'm guessing you just setrestrained to 0 for yourself and you should be able to walk around the room.

Torquemadras posted:I think it's also due to a change in development. DS2 is a larger game than DS1, and my guess is that they had multiple teams working on zones seperately before connecting them. It explains why neighbor zones are often quite inconsistent thematically, and why there are some weirdlevel transitions. (You all know the one...) I may be alone on this one, but I think DS2 would've worked better with the archstone system from Demon's Soul. If you can't make your world consistent, chop out everything but the consistent parts, I don't mind personally. Mehh, like others have said, this doesn't really fly. Even if you go with the whole 'transitions are sometimes weird because different teams made the levels' thing, it's not like there wouldn't be someone overseeing how the levels were being designed. The way it works when you break a project up into teams, the teams are assigned specific projects decided on by the producer or director to insure consistency, and are then given a schedule with regular progress check-ins to review their work. They aren't just left to do whatever-the-gently caress and then you jumble it all together at the end and go 'whoops, tee-hee we made a lava level over your mountain, oh well!'.. I mean, even if you assume that someone had done something so hideously irresponsible with managing the creation of the game that it was all slapped together from disparate teams who were working independently with little to no communication, do you honestly think no one ever checked in before the completion of the game to see what the teams were designing? That no one would be like 'hey don't make that type of level for that area' or 'hmm, these are the levels we are making, maybe we should put the sea of lava at another transition?' I mean, if it was really so slapdash, then why wouldn't they just move the lava world somewhere else? Just switch a portal with another level that makes more sense to put up there. And do you really think they'd make it all the way through testing without anyone commenting on the strangeness of the inconsistency? It's intentional. It should be obvious it's intentional just by the inherent nature of games and how they're made. StrangersInTheNight has a new favorite as of 17:28 on Jul 6, 2014 |

In early Unreal-engine games the skybox worked the same way, and you could have a bunch of five-mile enemies patrolling around in the distance.

Why did you go back three pages for something nobody cares about?  Can every thread pertaining to games have the subtitle "Shut up about Dark Souls 2 level transitions" (Especially the Dark Souls 2 thread.)

StrangersInTheNight posted:It's intentional. It should be obvious it's intentional just by the inherent nature of games and how they're made. You do not have to explain project management to me. It's, frankly, a bit insulting. Also, this does by no means mean map consistency was at any point a priority for From Software, because that thing is very tough to do. It's a whole 'nother layer of complexity, and given that DS2 is a good deal bigger (as well as spread over an entire continent), I'm not surprised the head designers didn't want to deal with that as much. This leads to inconsistencies that are really small, kinda umimportant and, at worst, somewhat puzzling. Who knows, maybe some people even noticed and decided to keep it in. Does that sound like an acceptable compromise to you, or are you gonna pounce on this three pages later again?
