Re: Holy Oddball!!! He's right batman!
Posted By: Louis Wu <halo@bungie.org>Date: 1/15/03 8:32 a.m.

In Response To: Holy Oddball!!! He's right batman! (Ross Mills)

: I used 50% health, and shields, and jumped from the top ledge on Prisoner to
: the floor.

: First time, no crouching - I went down to 3 bars of health left
: Second time, Crouching - I had ALL my health left at the end.

: Hmm. Curious.

It blows me away how many people didn't know this. (In fact, Thumper posted here because he first emailed this to us, and Count Zero said he'd never heard of it, suggested the forum.)

I don't know of any other way of getting the sniper rifle on Hang 'em High (default weapons) and getting down WITHOUT getting hurt.

It's all about timing - as Ross discovered above. Do it right, it works wonderfully. Do it wrong... you might as well have not tried. :)
