Secret Halo 3 vehicle revealed!

I always wanted a flying garbage can...

Awesome. :D

What I want to know is how the hell does a glitch like that even happen? I mean really, who the hell coded the physics of the dumpster in such a way that jumping enables controlled flight?

Still funny as hell though, even if it is sloppy programming.

Awesome. Whats the name of the song?

Just to be clear the band is focus. The song name is Hocus Pocus. I think they had one other minor hit but never matched this song in popularity

that game just earned a playthrough just for that dumpster.

wow what an amazing piece of shit.good job bungie,keep the quality flowing.



another pc gamer who didnt fall for the mass consumerist mind virus faggery.



whew

My guess is that this works because bungie didn't code the player models to exert downwards force when they jump in their physics engine. This would mean most of the (virtual) energy would be transferred into the dumpster. Without the equal downward force caused by the upward propulsion, more energy would go into the roof than the floor. Hence, floatiness and japery. If that postulation is correct, you'd steer it like a rowing boat, by altering the rate at which one of the sides jump. Funky glitch though, hopefully bungie won't fix it.

Garbage riding has come a long way.

<3 Halo.

What's with that retarded spider thing? is it on your side or not? I can't tell because all it does is move around.

Sharpless, look up videodownloader, a plugin for Firefox

Does this only work on that level? Has anyone tried on others?

Very awesome

->Calavera: I imagine one person just can't jump fast enough to counteract gravity with their mighty headbutts. As for movement, seeing as halo allows for mid air direction change, the player colliding with the wall of the dumpster while holding forward would change the its momentum, the same way as would jumping into any other moveable object.

i can only imagine how the conversation during this discovery was
but over best glitch so far

Awww, I was hoping they'd be able to fly to safety via dumpster once they destroyed the scarab. Still, epic!!

So a friend and I tried this today... we must have been at it for about an hour. We couldn't get it to work. We need the manual for that thing :p

Reminds me of prop flying in Source, except this looks easier to pull off. In source, if something's small enough that you can grab it and pick it up, you can put it on the ground, jump on top, and continiously jump and pick it up and land on it and jump off and pick it up to fly with it. I've never been able to really fly very far or high with it, but some people have managed to get it to do amazing things:

The end of that video. They speed it up, because it takes quite a while to get real height with it.

Wow, so great. Wish they credited what song that was, though.

Ah here

Song = Focus - Hocus Pocus

Bungie shouldn't think this a disadvantage. They should try putting guns on the dumpster, et voila, a cult, fan-favourite vehicle. :oD

All people who think its an actual vehicle are retarded or worse theyre modding u dumb asses its not very hard to to in campaign mode :~I
