hello and welcome to another episode of
my facts and glitches series where i
showcase some more of what i've learned
about gta 5
in my almost 8 000 hours of speedrunning
the game and from my awesome viewers
recently a major glitch was rediscovered
in gta 5 speedrunning
the buffett ledge grab was possible to
perform on playstation 3 and xbox 360
but no one could get it to work on pc we
now know that it was the default
controls that prevented this glitch from
occurring
changing your jump and phone special
buttons so they are not the same
makes it possible again to activate this
glitch take cover on something you can
climb
then bring out your phone and press the
buttons you used to climb
in my case w and space this will cause
you to be pushed out of cover
you can now move wherever you want but
when you stand still
and put down your phone the game will
warp you back in order to complete the
climb animation
the limitations and uses of this glitch
are somewhat complex you can for example
put your phone down and not get warped
back
as long as you are in cover but the
second you move off cover without your
phone up the glitch will activate
driving a car disables the glitch even
if you keep your phone up while driving
when you get out and put down your phone
nothing will happen
to fix this you must take cover when you
get out of the car
this for some reason makes the glitch
work again and you will warp to where
you started the glitch as normal
it is also important to note that the
warper is tied to the objects not the
location you performed the glitch
this means you can do it on a car drive
the car somewhere else
and you will still reliably warp back to
that car
the max distance you can warp is
debatable because it depends on
fps but at the very least if the object
you are attempting to warp to despawns
it will not work different settings such
as distance scaling will impact how far
you can travel
without the object despawning
unfortunately this glitch cannot
normally be carried through cut scenes
the only exceptions are when you end the
cutscene in a car or in cover
this is the case on the mission bury the
hatchet michael is in cover
after the cutscene thus moving out of
cover activates the glitch
previously set up when you arrived where
are you
a much more inconsistent aspect of this
glitch can be achieved if you destroy
the climbable object
just before you warp back to us
getting a perfect launch in the air
might save time in a speed run but it is
so unreliable that it likely will never
be attempted in a full run
although on individual mission speed
runs like the one for the mission
complications
you can go for these very risky
strategies
the financing it seems like a shitty
deal
you're kidding
ah
it's just cause you have a massive gaper
[ __ ]
to do this glitch online is more
convoluted because your character
doesn't physically bring out their phone
in the same way you do in single player
it is just an overlay that appears on
screen however there is a glitch to
change this
i first learned of this from sarah
digitally but it seems common knowledge
in single player go into creator mode
then
select creator capture and gta next
change your camera there is a 50 50
chance the character you control will be
the same sex as your online character
this must be the case for the glitch to
work if they don't match
just retry assuming this is the case
move into gta online
this will give you the normal single
player phone animation and thus you can
perform the glitch as normal
this glitch is possible on the later
consoles but i don't play them so i
can't explain how to do it but here is a
visual guide made by davey
thank you findlestick for making us
aware of the glitch on the early
consoles
thank you to justice for figuring out
how to do it on pc
and thanks twisted tamer for
spearheading its implementation into the
speed runs
it is possible to access los santos with
michael before the mission prologue
begins
first while on any save file load a new
game
the timing is tricky for the next part
but a few seconds before you load in
you need to select your online character
i waited until the loading circle had
spun
11 times and then began to hold and
release f8 in a rhythm
attempting to do this too early or too
late seem to prevent the glitch
my loading times of course will differ
from your own and what key you need to
press
depends on your version of the game when
you are asked if you want to go online
of course you select no this will reveal
michael in los santos
the map will be almost completely
covered and if you save your game
you will have a zero percent in the
beginning save file
and you can even create an auto save
with the same name by going into
director mode
unfortunately after five seconds prolog
starts as normal
even if you load these save files to be
honest your ease of getting this glitch
and how long you will spend in los
santos will depend on how powerful your
system is
my system is very fast so it makes it
very difficult to achieve this glitch
in the elevator of the fib building as
can be seen on the firefighter bureau
raid
the floor numbers skip over 13. it is
common in some parts of the world to not
label any floor 13
due to the belief the number brings
about bad luck this is of course quite
silly
as the 13th floor despite being named
the 14th floor would still
actually be the 13th on the side of
every cab there is a sign that claims
that taxi drivers carry firearms and
will defend themselves
this is of course a lie
i guess i'm not
it is impressive how well characters can
push their bikes backwards up steep
inclines
uh
on the mission friend request where
michael infiltrates the life and vader
building
there is a small room that very few
people would ever go into
that actually has an easter egg i'm
totally becoming a tech evangelist when
the big boys fast
maybe not even neck all evangelize
anything even evangelizing
this is the only door that works and
there is nothing of interest in here
except this box it has the same language
and markings as the vans in gta 3.
rockstar made a slight error when they
programmed crystal maze and this becomes
obvious when you park your car to the
left of the door where you start the
mission
you sure as [ __ ] are one dumb ignorant
when the mission starts it rightly
spawns you in the middle of the parking
lot but if you mission fail
it respawns you at the location you left
your car when you first arrived at the
mission
[Music]
ah
[Music]
some planes have a hitbox to encompass
everywhere their propeller can be
while others have a hitbox just where
the propeller is
at the altruist camp it is possible to
be able to snipe the members
but to still be far enough away that
they instantly respawn
there is likely many instances of this
in the game but this is just an easy one
to do
strangely if you kill a taxi driver and
enter through the passenger side door
rather than hitting out the dead person
and taking the driver's seat as normal
your character will sit comfortably next
to the body
christ alive
accessories that color your vision will
show this coloring when you move into
first person
however this coloring will dissipate
after a short time
when you do the stealth version of the
jewel store heist and franklin has to
throw some gas
into the vents if you have grenades
michael will remark about this and tell
you not to use them
we're in position waiting on your signal
just gotta get where i can throw this
hey i saw you had some grenades on you
don't throw them instead of the gas
bombs
i think i can tell the difference i got
an angle
we're waiting on you sit tight
on the mission fresh meet franklin is
meant to use a mobile app to track
michael's phone
to find his location at any point you
are able to switch back to michael
and see how he is going in the factory
funnily enough
if you pause the game while in control
of michael it still shows you your
character arrow
telling you exactly where michael is
making the entire use of the app
and tracking michael's phone completely
pointless you can even set a point of
interest marker that you can then follow
when you switch back to franklin
on the mission daddy's little girl jimmy
informs michael that tracy is on a boat
causing michael to dive off the pier and
swim over to us
rockstar didn't seem to believe you
would get a wanted level at this point
so intentionally getting one leads to
strange results
[Music]
that's really healthy like really
once tracy is underwater she seems to no
longer need oxygen at all
nothing else interesting happens if you
lose your wanted level
everything respawns and progresses as
normal one small area of the iaa
building does not have any collision
this means you can jump through it and
parachute into the area that is featured
during
the mission 3's company
moving into first person or ragdolling
will make it so the textures are visible
there is not much of interest here some
small objects
many rooms invisible walls but nothing
useful
you can however see how they prevented
the old method of getting in here
which was parachuting through the window
there is now a second panel of
indestructible glass to prevent us
there are many cutscenes in the game
that people will likely never see
because they occur under unusual
circumstances for example
if you fail to leave the jewel store
during the heist you can see the gang
get arrested
[Music]
down slow that was out you know got you
[ __ ]
on the mission by the book if you
torture mr k for too long you'll be
prompted to use a syringe to bring him
back to life
i suspect most people have not seen the
cutscene that occurs if you do not do
this
now hold on hold on hold on
forget it it's [ __ ] dead oh yeah poor
bastard man
you are a [ __ ] [ __ ]
whoa hey i just spent the past few hours
torturing
a seemingly innocent guy to death and i
don't even
know why i did it so does that make me a
[ __ ] [ __ ]
you're going down punk at the exact
moment i get bored with you
your little racket will end yeah
yeah you love those [ __ ] tough guy
lines don't you huh
as long as you set your distance scaling
setting high enough
did you know there are bouncy balls in
this game that people sometimes confuse
for gumballs
at this location there is a rock that if
you run into it in first person
you'll be launched into the air it seems
dependent on holding a weapon
with the rifles giving the biggest
launch
[Music]
ah
[Music]
