Description This might be old news already but anyway (no spoilers, not really)

I just had the biggest laugh in quite a while as Halo 4 presented me with a hilarious glitch. I was playing Spartan Ops, episode three on Galileo when I suddenly found myself chased by a bunch of guns, sliding around like greased lightning at foot height.

On closer inspection, I realized the weapons were mastered by tiny little Covenant troops. Longest mission I've played so far I think, I just had so much fun with the little guys. I could hardly bring myself to kill them

Isn't this rather heavily laiden guy the cutest ever?

Ha ha, nah I don't think so. You know I gave up Halo 4 after just a week or so. 12,000 Halo 3 games played, about 1,500 Reach games and probably a whole of 30 H4 games played. Not my kind of game at all, plus I loathe the story behind the game so ... but I did find some hilarious clips on YouTube, lol. Some guy just laughed his way through seven minutes of that insanity and made me laugh too.

Thanks for the offer though.

Good question. It'd be something like firing a missile at a pea, lol. It really took forever to kill the things, they were so fast!

It isn't in Campaign though, it was in one of the Spartan Ops missions, you had to defend two missile turrets or something on top of two buildings whilst getting attacked by waves of Covenant, ending in two Hunters (on Heroic). Heck, I know there are YouTube clips of this, let me find one for you.

Apparently it happens on other maps as well, here's a clip for you so you can appreciate the madness. Β  www.youtube.com/watch?v=QtSLMN…

That was a great clip, I lol'd so hard What would be really horrifying is if you managed to survive to the hunters and then they were tiny like that too. I would laugh, but at the same time I would cry. I still have yet to get this glitch to happen on my copy of this game... And usually I'm the one who manages to get the copy that's exceptionally buggy. I have found several different bugs in my copy of Mass Effect 1, bugs no less that no one else I know of has found

Skyward-Dreamer In reply to Sylver-Star-Shyne [2014-03-22 19:59:30 +0000 UTC]

Oh GOD! Tiny Hunters ... And now, how about a space battle where all Covenant ships are minituarized as well! Now THAT would be something. XD Imagine trying to FIND them somewhere out there in space ...

Glad you liked the clip. The map it happened for me on was even better since there was no water for them to hide in, so you could see them clearly. First I just saw guns floating an inch above the ground and was totally dumbfounded.

That's funny. Oh, yes I've heard that the PC version of ME1 has a few bugs in it. You might be able to find a patch to fix some of them, I've never actually seen a single bug in all my playthroughs. So, what happens when things go awry?

Sylver-Star-Shyne In reply to Skyward-Dreamer [2014-03-23 05:28:09 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, those would be a terrible thing, hunters are bad enough when we can see them, they would be worse if we couldn't haha Oh no, see that would be worse than the midgets with guns, because those phantoms and banshees are all shiny and they reflect everything around them, so it would be spray and pray the entire time

I do think I'd rather have them on the map your were on, if there's water for them to run around in you're just screwed I think I would be inclined to re-load the game at that point

Ok, so I'm sure the one where Kaiden spazzes out and loses all control over how his body works is fairly common and I see it a bit, the other ones I've run into that I have yet to see anyone else have are at least as weird. First one only happens once about every other play-through, I talk to Helena Blake and immediately after she says her first line she teleports straight up in the air so I'm staring into her feet. Then next one I've only see twice, and only on Feros, I had Garrus and Ashley with me both times. When I was finishing up the last little side-mission after killing the Thorian I suddenly realized they weren't following me around anymore. So I'm looking for them, then they teleport to my position. Turns out they were stuck inside each other, the only one I could see from the front was Ashley and the only one I could see from the back was Garrus. I just about died laughing the first time it happened, even tho I had to go back onto the ship to get that bug to go away Β

Skyward-Dreamer In reply to Sylver-Star-Shyne [2014-03-30 13:29:18 +0000 UTC]

For sure.

Yeah, I wouldn't even have noticed them at first I think if they'd been submerged.

LOL! I'd never heard about that. Ha ha, I hate the guy already, that'd tip me over the edge and I'd be rolling on the floor laughing so hard if he ever did that.

ha ha, and that with Blake is even funnier.

HA HA HA, oh this gets better and better. You know .. do you think it could be your computer somehow? Maybe the graphics card can't quite keep up or something? I've never had anything like this happen even once and I've played the games on at least four different machines over the years. I did have one very weird freeze glitch once though, it looked scary as hell: skyward-dreamer.deviantart.com…

Oh, and then this, where someone's gums are floating by themselves over Xeltan's head: skyward-dreamer.deviantart.com…

That's about the weirdest things I've ever seen.

Sylver-Star-Shyne In reply to Skyward-Dreamer [2014-03-31 00:27:05 +0000 UTC]

lol The one where Kaiden can't seem to move properly is fairly common, so that one is a legit glitch. I found a pretty good vid of the Kaiden one in action tho:Β www.youtube.com/watch?v=ViluU9…
And another one that I have yet to see happen to me but which made me die:Β www.youtube.com/watch?v=GYrY72…

The one with Blake probably is just my graphics card tweaking out, but I have yet to figure out why the last one only happens when I have Ashley and Garrus with me on Feros, and then only after killing the Thorian while I'm running around in the tunnels doing side missions

lol That freeze glitch, oh wow I really don't know what to say to that. It's almost like your computer decided that for what ever reason it just didn't like Garrus anymore The other one was pretty funny too, who's gums and teeth do you suppose those are anyway?

Skyward-Dreamer In reply to Sylver-Star-Shyne [2014-04-02 21:42:35 +0000 UTC]

Ha ha haaaaa. Oh my god, that's too funny. And the Kaidan glitch is in itself quite curious. Sometimes you see squadmates during ME3 multiplayer that behave pretty much exactly like that. hell, there's even an awesome glitch where they move around upside down on their heads! Now I'm curious if this is some programming error or something. Here's an example: www.youtube.com/watch?v=bCw7xg…

Or, more frequently, one team mate will just slide along without moving his legs or arms or anything, it looks ridiculous, but apparently things seem normal on their end. Sometimes you can't even see team mates or enemies for that matter. I usually quite games like those because they can be really frustrating (depending on difficulty)

It's funny, I've been replaying all three ME3 games lately and I've gotten quite a few glitches and bugs with ME1 and 3 these past few days. There's a really annoying Garrus glitch in 3 where he'll get stuck somewhere on a mission and just stand waving one arm endlessly. You can't order him to a position and you can't use his powers, you have to restart the mission or wait until you get to another checkpoint, then he'll reappear in working order again.

Ha ha, yeah that's really curious. I must try that combination sometime, but I usually play the games on my 360.

Ha ha, yeah, lol. I was like WHOA! and then I laughed like crazy. And I have no idea. I suppose they might be Xeltan's own. Or perhaps they're Shepard's?

Sylver-Star-Shyne In reply to Skyward-Dreamer [2014-04-03 10:51:33 +0000 UTC]

lol I about died when I watched that video, that would be a sight to see no matter what game you were playing And yeah, I don't have any real idea what it could be, but a friend and I hypothesized that it might be because the creators knew what kind of an ass Kaiden would be from the start and so they decided to humiliate him a bit. It was funny to think about anyway

Oh ouch. That is a really weird glitch, actually really weird thing about that, I was playing ME1 right after I read this and my Shepard started sliding around without moving any part of her body like that. Sometimes I swear games do stuff just to freak you out I've never had things just disappear, but that may be because I never play online...

lol Is your console taking lessons from my PC??? That sounds like the kinds of things my computer does sometimes, no lie I haven't seen that happen to Garrus tho... Which is weird, because I pretty much always take him with me and I have bad luck with glitches, there've been times when I felt like if there was a glitch to be found I would be the one to find it.

lol Maybe they were Shepard's, considering you're usually viewing the scene from behind him/her when you talk to people I've ended up looking at the inner walls of my Shep's armor a time or two because for some odd reason the cinematics went through her body when the scene did the whole dramatic zoom out thing.

Skyward-Dreamer In reply to Sylver-Star-Shyne [2014-04-19 11:02:35 +0000 UTC]

Me too. I've pretty much seen everything after thousands of games, except that one glitch, lol. I saw this really silly FIFA (I think) glitch some time ago where suddenly two players went invisible for a second, then reappeared with one leg tucked up their bellies, hopping on the other. LOL. I was trying to find it for you but I forgot where exactly I saw it, sorry.

Ha ha! Actually, I think they're pretty fond of Kaidan. Remember, if you don't play ME1, he's the default survivor of Virmire. Ugh, is all I can say.

Pretty much same here. The only games I've ever played online, in five years, are the Halo games and now ME3. I will have a look at Titanfall though but I don't think that's going to be an easy game on a slow connection, we'll see.

Lol, more likely it is indeed some kind of programming error or something. It always happens on the mission to rescue the Cerberus scientists, Jacob and his mistress, and always happens at exactly the same point too.

Yeah, that's a good thought. And that seems to happen quite a lot on ME1, yes.

Sylver-Star-Shyne In reply to Skyward-Dreamer [2014-04-20 11:54:55 +0000 UTC]

lol Oh wow, yeah I think I've seen videos of that one There's a few really random glitches for FIFA though, there's one for FIFA 12 that I saw on a Top10 video where two players from opposing teams ended up making out a bit on the field Β www.youtube.com/watch?v=sotqQF…
I forget what number it is on the list, and some of the glitches are a little creepy, but the whole thing had me in stitches the first time I watched it.

Oh really? Huh. I didn't know that, see I immediately imported my ME1 character instead of just starting a new game so yeah. Wow, uh yeah, I honestly can't decide which of them I like more or less, by the end of ME2 I disliked them both equally and then there was Kaiden and his...I don't know what to call it...of ME3

I kinda miss playing the Halo games online, but at the same time I don't, just because if you get really good with anything suddenly it becomes a noob weapon or a noob power and all the guys who consider themselves 'skilled gamers' hate you/single you out just because they're too lame to figure out how to counter your move of choice. It's annoying, because I don't think I've ever seen an armor power or a weapon I couldn't figure out how to beat. Yeah, I don't know how it would be on a slow connection, I can imagine it being really infuriating, just because it looks like it has so much in it and seems like it has such fine-tuned controls for a lot of things. I'm honestly not sure how well it will work even for me.

lol So it's kind of like my difficulty with the Garrus/Ashley combination and Feros Yeah, it makes sense that it would be a programming error when you look at it that way. I mean I know that's what most glitches are, but some are worse than others, and some are more irritating than others.

Yeah it does, in fact that happens more in ME1 than in any of the others I think, not sure why the felt the dramatic zoom was necessary but oh well, at least they still made the most brilliant game trilogy in existence Β

Lol, that's some crazy shit right there .. espescially those two soccer guys. Wow.

I'll always choose Ash over Kaidan myself. Every single time. I can't stand his voice to begin with. It's just ... wrong somehow.

Oh man ... that is SO true about ME3. There are like a gazillion weapons and characters to choose from, some are incredibly easy and powerful to use so naturally the pro community hate them, lol. God, a year or so ago, I'd drop by the BSN forum just to see all the arguing going on about this and that. It was hilarious! My personal Halo faves are the standard battlerifle, the DMR to a lesser degree and the Needle rifle. That was a mean son of a gun (literally, lol)

Maybe that's why I didn't find Titanfall very cool in my first two attempts, perhaps I simply didn't see enemies because of lag or soemthing, I don't know. But really, one second you're there and everything's fine, the next you're dead.

I actually had that same glitch early on in the ME3 campaign a little while ago, on Mars. Just when you arrive at the final trainstation, Ashley got stuck inside the train cabin and kept switching her omniotool on and off constantly while Liara got stuck behind a crate, so I had to take down pretty much all the Cerberus troops myself. Good thing it wasn't Insanity.

By the way, do you know how to activate Flycam for the first two games? I've seen descriptions but since I'm using a European keyboard, I can't find the proper key to activate it. Sadface.

Sylver-Star-Shyne In reply to Skyward-Dreamer [2014-04-26 06:06:51 +0000 UTC]

lol I know right? There are some supremely weird glitches out there, sometimes I like to go on YouTube and search the glitches just to see what all weird things happen in video games because one or two lines of code get a little bit confused I also found the most random video ever of an Elite with a somewhat broken AI:Β www.youtube.com/watch?v=x0OWsL…

I've had both of them, but it's kinda hard to pick a preference sometimes. Although I definitely agree on Kaiden's voice, it drives me nuts. Sometimes he talks and I just go omg shush

It seems like it's that way with any game. And I have purposely picked less powerful characters and then when you win they go oh, you were using a noob weapon or a noob character. And then they resort to petty name calling when they find out what you actually used. It's like I got fed up with Halo: Reach because a bunch of whiny dumbasses convinced 343i to patch armor lock and make it next to useless as a means of defense. It wasn't the greatest power before, I mean I could beat it with no problem, but some people who considered themselves pros couldn't and therefore when 343i bought the rights to Halo they fucked it up thanks to the whining of those less skilled than they wanted to believe. I swear, the next thing we know they'll make it take 5 rockets to kill one freakin Spartan, and it already takes 3 to kill some of the Elites. lol Yeah, I avoid the forums like the plague, so many people on there whine because they can't counter this or that weapon and they rage at someone who's good with that particular weapon and call them noobs or accuse them of hacking the game or cheating I agree tho, the two most annoying covenant weapons are the needle guns and the focus rifle, they're both pretty dang evil if you get hit with them It's really satisfying when you kill the person responsible for filling you full of needles tho I really want to play the original Halo games now... I should do that later Β 

It probably is, I haven't gotten around to trying Titan Fall yet though to see how it will work for me. I want to but I think it's probably going to be a little while yet before I do...

lol At that point I may have decided to load from the auto-save or something Although, I do find it pretty hilarious when you're team gets stuck somewhere and they just keep doing one little thing over and over ^^ I have had Liara get stuck on things like chairs that she could just as easily walk around and yet for some reason I can never discover she just stands there twitching. I've also had that happen to Tali, to a lesser degree.

You know, I have no idea how to work the Flycam, I've tried and tried, and I'm sure there's some trick to it, but I can't figure it out x.x I'll see if I can find out for you, because yeah, there's been times when I wanted to use it and I just couldn't make it work
