[BUG] Down Elevators + Jump == :(

Post » Tue May 15, 2012 6:50 am

Jumping when going on a downward-moving elevator (e.g. near the beginning of either "Shrouded Bunker" level) will result in a grisly death.

This was first pointed out to me by a friend who jumped while downelevatoring on the first "Shrouded Bunker" level. I didn't have any saves that would allow me to verify, but on the second "Shrouded Bunker" level, when the elevator was moving down, I saved the game and was able to reproduce the issue that he described.

There were three outcomes from jumping while on a downward-moving elevator
  • success: I suffered damage
  • failure: I bounced up and down until I died
  • failure: I was suspended in midair (I unable to consistently reproduce this failure mode, but when suspended I performed some action (not sure which, sorry) that caused me to fall and die)

I've found another failure mode for downward-moving elevators. I've twice now fallen through the elevator. The second time I actually fell entirely through the map.

Interesting... I noticed that Dues Ex Human Revolution disables jumping while you are in an elevator. Perhaps Rage needs to do the same thing.
