[[MGS2 Emma Zip]] [[MGS2 Ladder Glitch]] [[MGS2 SOL Elevator Glitch]] [[MGS2 Swim Glitch]] [[MGS2 Tengu 1 Skip]] [[MGS2 Tengu 2 Skips]] =====All Glitches===== The following is a list of all known (by the community) glitches in the game that do not necessarily have a usecase in the speedrun. ====Camera/Scope/Box into Ladder/Railing Glitches==== The following are a list of know out of bounds glitches that involve equipping a camera/scope prior to entering the animation for hanging onto a railing or ladder: * [[https://youtu.be/y6cZCwj2XRQ | Hold No.1]], please refer to [[MGS2 Ladder Glitch | Ladder Glitch]] for more information on this. * [[https://youtu.be/dugYZn0EqkQ | Navigational Dock]] found by magnum66 * [[https://youtu.be/xnxrbsp_7mE | Strut A Deep Sea Swim Glitch]] found by magnum66 and TheThrillness ====Door Glitches==== It was first found by KikujiroChan. Door Glitches allows for Raiden to hit the load trigger behind a locked door. In most cases, this leads to a softlock as the game can't open the door on the other side after the load transition. Currently, this is only useful for Tengu 1 (and Bomb Disposal 05 in VR Missions). Refer to [[MGS2 Tengu 1 Skip | Tengu 1 Skip]] for more information on this. Here are the steps on how to perform this: - Press against a locked door (with a load trigger behind it). - Go into First Person View and let go of door. - Perform a punch-punch-kick combo while still in FPV. - When Raiden begins kicking, let go of FPV. Door Glitch can also be done with the HF.

Blade]] found by PurpleStuffedWorm === Prozac Skip === An alternative Door glitch that can be performed with either Snake or Raiden. Based on extending your hitbox\\ after throwing an object like a magazine or grenade, you can turn into a closed door to touch the load zone behind it.\\ This trick finds particular use in any% runs where we play in the Tanker chapter, after having beaten Olga and going into\\ the engine room to move on. With this trick we can enter the engine room from the left door and skip having to walk through\\ the entire engine room. {{youtube>MSQnL8tBy2A?}} ====Elevator Out Of Bounds==== It was first found by KikujiroChan. This glitch is exclusive to //Sons of Liberty// and was patched out of //Substance// and the //HD Edition//. It allows for Raiden to fall out of bounds. Refer to [[MGS2 SOL Elevator Glitch | Elevator Glitch]] for more information on this. Here are the steps on how to perform this: - Go next to the elevator button from the outside. - Crouch and press the elevator button. * Shell 1 Core, 1F * Shell 1 Core, B1 * Shell 1 Core, B2 Computer Room * Shell 2 Core, 1F * [[https://youtu.be/v8Mat6qae9U | Shell 2 Core, B1]] found by KikujiroChan ====Phone Glitch==== Originally discovered by magnum66, here are the steps on how to perform it: - Go near an area that causes the phone to ring, such as fire or the bugs in Shell 2 Core B1 with Emma. - Equip the phone and hold select to bring up the codec. - Tap select to leave the codec and then hold select again to bring it back up. **Note:** On the PC port of Substance, this can cause the game to crash.
