Anything Weird Happen to You?
I was on the first Wolvark thing (after the posts with the poor Grubbs on them) and I turned the corner, and well.... kinda started a staring contest with a Wolvark. I moved all around him and he didn't do ANYthing. He just stood there and looked at me for quite a while (fifteen minutes). The snapped outta it and shot me down. Anything weird happen to you?
|
Once when I was playing Abe's Exoddus, I got spotted by a slig because I accidently stepped out of the shadows. But he didn't shoot me at all, he just kept saying "what" endlessly. So after like 3 minutes, I tried possesing him but as I started to chant he stopped saying "what" and shot me. It was pretty funny. This happened at Necrum Mines.

My first time through Stranger, I ran into a NASTY bug towards the end of the game. From the point just after the timed run, I couldn't go to first person. I thought maybe it was supposed to be that way until I got to the fight with the two Gloktigi and I STILL couldn't go to first person. There was just no way to fight them. All I could do was get killed over and over...I had to go to the region start save to continue. Thankfully, it hasn't happened since.

If you play Stranger in invincibility mode and get killed by either a fan or a crane, you'll become invisable (assuming you can escape your "doom"). In 1st person, you can't move more than a step without halting (which can get incredibly annoying) and in 3rd, you can move freely (but you can only move in 3rd, which means you can't climb ropes).

But once, when I was on my second time through SW, I was talking to the Clakkers, but when I'd finished, they wouldn't talk back! When I tried to get back through the gate, he wouldn't let me and kept quiet! I had to reload and fortunately, it stopped. |
in abe's exouds(sorry about spelling) I was in the brewery when I spotted a glukon I punched it and it stood back up and laughed ten minutes later it shouted help and I got shot by a slig
|
If Abe's Exouddos, I was behind a slig, I slapped it, it didn't do nothing for about 40 seconds, then it shot me.
|
Almost the same happened to me, Silent Hunter.
I ran against a Wolvark that he flew into the water. After I looked around, I found this guy, standing in the water, staring at me without to move. Then I tried to get him and then I wanted to kill him. Well, it was quite funny to see an enemy in the water, staring at me. Perhaps the water was too cold for him ;) Alector |
It shocked him, that's all... Well, I dunno. Mabey it's just the Wolvarks. Mabey they are so incrediously stupid that they just stare instead of kill.
*Speaks in british accent* I do say tho, he was quite the good starer. Starerer. Whateva, he could stare well. ^_^ |

Why would you want to use invinciblility!!!
it ruins the game! |
Because I wanted to.

Another weird thing happened. I was fighting Meagly McGraw (does Tiny always explode when he dies?) and after Tiny exploded, McGraw kinda just... stood there. Didn't do anything, no shooting, no speaking, just the movement of him like an outlaw standing still. Then I bopped him one and he took off running.
|
As far as I've seen, Tiny always explodes when he dies.
Were you hiding/out of his reach when you destroyed him? I usually climb up the oppel crusher to get out of their reach. Meagley always just stands around like that for me...I hate when he starts running around. |
sorry but some contents here are spoilers...
I have to move this topic |
Once when I was playing Oddworld Abe's Exodus, I accidently ran under a meat saw but it stoped above abe's head and then I got some mudokons under it and it diden'y kill them but when any industriul like a slig walked under it, it killed them! And another time is I said hi to I slig then I said follow me and IT DID!!!!! But like 40 secs later it shot me.
|
hehe, that's funny :D
I never imagined that could work |
When I was fighting Meagly, I shot a stunk at him, he threw up, I then knocked him out with the "fists of fury" attack and he was out like a light. Sucked him up and that was it. Amazing.
Also, climb any rope (horizontal, mostly... Try Beaks Opple Farm for best results, on the second floor of the BARN), get to the top, jump up a little, press X and then either nothing will happen and you'll simply stick to the rope, or you'll start glitching and hearing all these Stranger noises in unison and then you'll rocket towards the ground at 30 miles an hour. Pretty cool. Another weird/cool thing happened for me as well. If you go to the Black Marketeer and stand outside while telling him the password, you can see inside the polygons of the entire building. Just run away as fast as you can when you are done speaking, and by the time he says "Ah, close enough" you will stop and the camera will pan to the door, going through the building and allowing you to see right through it. |
This is for the guy who had the Wolvark staring at him from the water. It's a cardboard cutout. The Wolvarks put them in the water to throw you off. I'm serious. There is a couple of them there.

when i talkted to a clakker and pushed the x button and stranger started to tal to himself and the clakker . i wish i could multitask like that
|
I had a Grubb do that-the staring contest. Just after the Temple. The Grubb just stood there and stared while the others screamed and ran around like chickens with their heads cut off...
|
Maybe that Grubb wasn't quite as cowardly as his buddies. I haven't gotten into any staring contests, but I have managed to corner one of them beside one of the buildings after the temple. All he would do is run in place beside me while everyone else hid. After a while, everyone would be inside and he'd just stand there until the other Grubbs came out and started screaming, then he'd start running in place again... :lol:
|
On Flub Fuels , in MO. The last part, when you have kill all the sligs, which I did, there was one left. And he just standed there still doing nothing, not smacking or moving, it was staring at me. So I slaped him, and slap him some more, but he wouldm't snap out of it. So I just left there, to stay.
Mabey becuase he was too afraid to attack a mudokon and gabbit alone. |
that clakker thing happened to me.
i think it's more of a glitch but, in mongo wilds, after the 1st level, i would talk to random clakkerz and, neraly all the time, they would just stare at me then walk off. the gate keeper would just be silent and then the gate would open. when i returned to new yolk city, everything went back to normal. it was i bit strange and annoying. |
(This was a glich in AO. I was at the part that was 2 or 1 screen(s) before u see the first bomb that u can defuse.) There is a slig in the background that u can posses and when u do make him run into the left wall a coulple times then walk into the wall until he stops then hold the shoot button until he falls out of the the right side wall then it will take u thru a couple screens.I no its not very exiting but its always nice to notice things. :stare:

I had a staring contest with five grubbs:D
After (ehh) Eugineus, i believe, you get in the grubb village. When I arrived there (second play trhough the game, I knew they would panic) five grubbs just stood in front of the door wich was opening and closing, opening and closing:S. After I hitted the grubbs a few times, they started to panic again:) |
Those of you who have played AO will know of the tubes you can roll through yes? And you'll notice how they are so small, Abe can only fit by rolling through in his tiny, compact, travel convieniant form. Obviously a Scrab would be too big to fit in such a space.
...WRONG! Once he followed me through and killed me, sticking up through the tube. Blarg! |
I've seen Scrabs walk through walls a couple of times in AO. Everytime it happened, they would either wind up on the next screen, or disappear entirely. Not that I minded...it made it a lot easier to get through those screens, since the times when they did reappear, they wound up together with another Scrab and I could easily get past them while they were fighting.
|
In AE I landed near a scrab, i thought it was my doom. the scrab did nothing but stare. i walked around him and turned to me and stared. I slapped it and it stared again. I left the screen and before you know it, the scrab ran after me and killed me! Weirdest scrab ever.
