Crates in the village with no way to them
 
I've found a rope very near the place where the steef first arrives in the village- I climb up and take a flying leap to a metal roof after breaking a crate of sniper wasps. From this vantage point I see two more crates of sniper wasps on the roof just across the way- too far to jump and no ropes to them..What's up with this?

I noticed that too, but I didn't think much of it. It's probably just an error on OWI's part, or maybe the super spectacular hidden level, that we all have heard about!

Theres another box of sniper wasps on that building with the metal roof...just walk off to the left when you first land

I dunno what the problem is. I've gotten both crates. Remember where Stranger landed in the in-game movie when he first arrives in the Grubb town and meets the female leader? Well, go back up the path back to that area. Around the corner is a rope. Climb up and onto a platform. There's another rope you can climb all the way to the top.
You'll see a few boombats and stingbees flying around, but more impotantly, there's an orange crate of Sniper Wasps all for you.

Correct me if that's not the crate you're looking to get to.

Also, there's another crate of sniper wasps underneith the pathway.

Got those
 
Yeah, I climbed up and found that crate- further down is a large grubb statue- is there a SECOND rope to climb higher still?
When I jump from the place where the crate is and land on the metal roof- I see two crates on a roof ahead of me.
I'm presuming where a crate is there is a way to get to them...

I know which crates your talking about, but I have no clue how to get to them. I figured if you shot them, the ammo might fall down, but that didn't work. I can't see a way to reach them. OWI may have just altered the level and forgotten about the crates.

You CAN get at those crates. From the platform with the grubb statue, jump to the highest building, then do that high-speed ram to get up to speed and run off that roof and on to the next, lower roof. Double jump as soon as you land, and you can make it to those other sniper wasp crates. You have to line it up just right, but those crates are accessible. :)

I found a way to those "unusable" sniper darts!!!
 
I have no idea where this topic goes, so if its in the wrong place, lay off me cept for the mods :p I'm sure many of you have tried to get to those things by the roofs,right? Well, you can still get to them by the roofs, like before you jump to the smallest building (you should be standing on the one next to it), you double jump off of the building your standing on and in mid air press the jump button twice and you should get there! Then the ones on the next roof across from you ( on your left) you can jump to as well with a double jump.*NOTE: it took SEVERAL tries before i got there (well actually, i hadnt quite figured it out yet, so thats why)

EDIT: omgosh Im so retarded, it goes in the Oddworld help! rofl, sorry!

I have no idea what you are talking about.

'Bout the sniper bees on a roof (grubb village) who nobody could reach...

This should probably go in the Spoiler Forum. There's already a topic about this in there, so I'll merge them. ;)

I never really used the sniper wasps anyway.

Phew, thanks Max!
