TRU crouching bug...

[al-x]

Hello:

I came across this bug in the demo where if you crouch/crawl very carefully on a ledge (or an edge of a cliff) you will go down and reappear at the bottom safely. I use it and it saves me the trouble of jumping and flipping around to reach the bottom. Has anyone tried this?
Is using this bug cheating? Are there other bugs on TRU that are useful?

Yeah, this bug is well known, although I don't know if it's in the real game as well......:scratch:

You can use it to go down to the Nagas (the lizards) or to walk on the bottom of the ocean (this last thing can cause the game to crash cause there is no way up and when you keep walking she 'falls off'.........)

I tried doing that in the game
but it looks like they've sorted it out...
cos in one of the blogs they mention these glitches so they resolved them

Hello:

I don't think it works in the game, especially after you use the released patch.

EDIT:

Well, I tried it, it works, and it saves me some trouble. I make it down safely in some levels and I use it. IMHO, it isn't cheating but using the resources available to you.

I personally would consider it cheating because it is so far from what the developers intended the player to do. For TR, I would consider that kind of thing to be cheating, because it is built around the idea of following a [linear] path about a level solving [linear] puzzles.
For more open games, objective-based, using tactics to clear enemies in an easier way than should normally be done I do not consider to be cheating. Exploiting bugs is a different issue, though.
