Subject: Metropolis - Pelican Flip Launch To The Scarab Gun

Hello Halo Universe! I'm new here but not new to tricks in Halo 2 so I thought I'd introduce myself with this unique way I got to the scarab gun on metropolis. After riding in the pelican until it crashes on the outside of the map, I flip it around and get launched up to the light tower then corner ride down to the bridge and walk over to the gun. This was tough to pull off as landing up there is insanely rare, and there are no checkpoints and the corner ride is hard and you only get one try at it. Enjoy everyone!

Ha ha, welcome to b.net my friend, lots of good people here.

Now, I want to explain what Dr Bizz did in case there's people who don't understand corner riding. When you corner ride like Bizz, you are invincible but it's not as easy as he makes it look. Remember, you are watching the greatest corner rider ever, imo.

He also has another vid where he gets the gun and corner rides all the way to street level. Nobody had ever gotten the Metropolis Scarab gun in single player and made it down to finish the level until Bizz did it.

@ Bizz, why don't you edit your OP to include the vid about getting down and maybe also the tutorial of corner riding?

I forgot to add, I've seen a lot of pro trickers come and go, but nobody has ever made use of the Pelican flip launch like Dr Bizz. Even xlax007 said he could only get halfway up that building. Bizz makes it look easy but easy it is not.

For Carnage Apply Within - We played Marathon before Marathon was cool!

Keep it authentic...

Wow, that is pretty impressive.

Thanks grumpy! Wow that's cool I didn't know XLAX tried the flip launch too. Yeah, the way the pelican flips it's very tough to tell when it will spin fast like that. You have to be in the right place and time it right when you press x to flip it.

The corner ride tutorial got the song blocked so I'll have to re-do the video. I'll add the box launch vid too. I hope all the tricking fans out there realize there are still things to accomplish in this game, even 7 years after it came out!

Wow, that's really cool. I'm not sure if I've seen that before. Well anyways, welcome to the site Dr Bizz!
