Some of these spots i'm sure most of you have seen, but I might post them anyways so that new players can understand and attempt. Along with each spot, ill give the difficulty and a detailed step by step plan of how to execute the tricks.
If you don't know how to do the high jump read straight through, if you already know how to do the high jump skip to the dotted line a short ways down.
Before I go on, there is one thing that you MUST know to do most of these tricks, and that is the High/Long Jump. The high/long jump is very effective in many ways. Here is how you do it...
Some spots to practice at so you know if you are doing it right:
-Crates (V2 axis crates are a very good example)
-Remagen's large,square tree/flower beds.
-The Hunt Church's front windows (a bit different, but practice nonetheless)
Ok, i think you get the point, just find a spot where if you normal jump you can ALMOST get up, just the extra foot or so is needed. Well, Here is how you do the high/long jump, there are 2 different forms for the high jump:
1.Running High Jump
Get a decent distance away from the object. Run straight at it, about a foot away from the object LET GO of the Foward key, the split second you let go of the forward key TAP (and release) your JUMP KEY, now, at the peak of your jump, HAMMER DOWN on the move forward key. You should get the extra inches/foot you need to get on it. Be patient, it can take some practice.
NOTE: you really dont need to run, it just helps the timing and 'actual-gameplay' scenerios. Try standing still and doing it, still works.
2.Inclined Plane High Jump
This one requires more time, but is also very effective. a Good example of this being used effectively is getting onto The Hunt's church roof. here is how this one works. This picture is the side-view:
Code: Select all

x___________/||||||||||||| o- Execute High Jump point. (note: its right before the lip).
Get a running start, and do the same button technique as mentioned above. If done correctly, you should launch really high, 3 times the original jump height. Perfect place to practice this is at The Hunt, churches front windows.. different levels of windows, all CAN be jumped into, practice.
--------------------------------------
Now that you have the basic understanding of jumping the right way
, lets introduce the opening glitch spot. Heck, since its the opener, lets do TWO spots.Map: The Hunt
Difficulty: Very Hard, Very Hard
Overview: Getting on the church roof (a different way) AND, getting onto the very top of the church... Solo.
(Yellow marked structures on the map are the ones you're using and looking out for!)
We'll start with red, getting onto the church. yes, this way is a bit useless when there is the much easier way... but heck. Im sure there's a mod out there somewhere preventing people from getting on the church, you'll stun em with this one... Anyways. Step by step:
The picture is pretty easy to follow...
1.Jump onto the ledge where the red line begins. From this ledge, you can see the slanted corner of the next ledge barely
2.jump out to it, face it the whole time and run onto it.
3.It's slanted so you might slip if you dont hold forward against the wall. If you look up, at about head height, is the next slanted ledge, you cant do a normal jump, so this is where the Running high jump comes in..
4. There is little room for a run (and for error!), so here is how it's done. tap backwards so you go backwards, than tap forwards really fast and go straight into the high jump key menuevers.
5. you should be propelled up onto the next slanted ledge, unable to stand, now, down and to your right, you should see the adjacent pillar, just like the one you are on. DON"T JUMP to it. simply walk off the one you're on and hold forward, (aim for the lower ledge). you should easily land on it.
6.repeat step 4 and the short running jump to the ledge at your head height. this ledge you should be able to stand up on. To your right, you should see the church roof... OH SO CLOSE!.. but dont get impatient, this is the hardest step.
7. release all keys so that you start to slide off the ledge, at the last second, run forward and go straight into a high jump (hit the foward key a bit earlier than the peak of the height for a long jump).
Ta dah. you're on the roof. Now, to get on the NEXT height of the roof... All by yourself.
looking down the way you just came from, on the right wall, you should see two step-like supports and the roof hanging over them.
1. Jump onto the first one (make sure your standing up!)
2. Start slipping off the SIDE, not back, of this one, right as soon as your about to fall jump forward onto the next one
3. From here, its easy as pie to jump onto the roof.. ta dah.
Short steps, sound easy? You're wrong. This is VERY hard to get the timing down. you have to be exact to get from the 1st step to the 2nd one. It's hard because the roof is hanging over these steps half way, and these steps arent very wide at all, so there is little margine to messup.
A good tip on this one is to not keep your cursor on the 2nd step. Instead, put your cursor to the left a bit so that the steps are at about the 1 to 2 o'clock position. and when you jump, SIDE-strafe onto the 2nd step. Works a lot easier.
Any questions or comments? ask. Ill be glad to even show you in person how they're done!
Thats it for this weeks glitch spot(s), "Tune in next week for a new one!"[/u]
