For The Lulz is a worthier cause than For The Win.

From the skies to the ground, I'm the one that'll reign destruction down on you from behind the wheel and the flight stick. Keep your eyes on the rear view mirror, or you may be eating exhaust aside the road, riddled with holes.

If at first you fail, fail again so that you succeed by wrapping your fail around the continuum into the win zone.

Hey, I did this on Spire once with a ghost.

Here is a clip: Ghost at Lightspeed


Nice.

The one time I managed to go Lightspeed on Spire, the round ended mid-Lightspeed. Sadface.

Forklifts never die. They're just missing in Forge.

Here's the clip of my Wraith flying on Unearthed. Sorry it's not rendered.

Silence fills the empty grave, now that I have gone
But my mind is not at rest, for questions linger on

I have been waiting for someone to recreate this awesome phenomena.

Technically speaking, those are better because they guarantee you points, whereas full lightspeeds may not kill you.

You are quite special, because I can never seem to do it in anything but a Wraith, Revenant or Ghost.

I love ROFLFALCON. It's one of my favorite glitches in the game. I'm amazed you survived as long as you did. Not only that, but you stayed rofling at an unheard of altitude. Usually ROFLFALCONs happen decently high up.

...... Holy crap.

That was damn awesome.

Can I upload that to youtube so more people can see the Roflcopter in its most epic and trollingeese mode?

I didn't find out the glitch. I just found out which surfaces triggered it.

I <3 Halo:Reach - amazingly fun and best campaign + amazing Soundtrack
I <3 Halo 3:ODST - best soundtrack + Firefight + Coastal Highway and Mombassa Streets, amazingly unique campaign.
I <3 Halo 3 - best multiplayer levels + Forge + best Custom Games + soundtrack
I <3 Halo 2 - amazing huge fun campaign + soundtrack + Fun multiplayer
I <3 Halo: CE - started it all

On Exodus I jumped onto one of those Faclons at the end of the mission and activated a Drop shield on it, and then it started doing the flipping out glitch.

And then two days ago On New Alexandria I had to escort Buck, and I decided to just land on his Falcon when it was flying so he would just take me, and then That caused me to start flipping out, and getting a checkpoint while I was in the glitch so I couldn't go on with the level anymore.

You should find otu what causes the Falcon one.

  • 08.19.2011 8:42 AM PDT

You copied this. My friend made the original map. Im assuming you used teleporters and set them to vehicles and then you gain speed by falling and then it shoots you across the map.

I'm fairly certain it has to do with faulty geometry as well. Because whenever it happens, the Falcon touches something first. But I'm not sure. I've always wanted to know what causes it, but no one seems to have any idea.

1. I copied nothing.
2. Your friend did no such thing. I, FTL Facepalm, made this map.
3. No. Way to fail at reading. This is not a teleporter launch map. This is a map that takes advantage of a glitch. The glitch is that you touch faulty geometry and go flying off at insane speeds.
4. There is no falling.
5. Just because a map uses a similar idea doesn't mean it's copied. Speed and Writer's Creation use the same idea. They're not copied.
6. Do your homework before you speak.

Im glad someone managed to actually recreate the glitch. This has happened to me far too many times though, usually when im having a bad game, my Ghost decides to launch me into a wall giving me a suicide. It's a curse, but damn right hilarious. Thanks again, will download whenever i can be bothered to go on the Xbox

Thanks.
