20 Things Developers Didn't Think YOU WOULD TRY

Players with some time on their hands tend to think of some crazy things in games that the developers didn’t even think of. Here are some MORE great examples.

I can add one more on the list.

In Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag, during any Legendary Ship battle, before you actually encounter the Legendary Ship in the sea, you can hop out of the helm and swim towards the Legendary Ship. Once you reach it, climb aboard, eliminate everyone on the ship, go back to your ship, and then go forward and trigger the battle.
Instead of doing a naval battle against the said Legendary Ship, the opposing ship will suddenly drop all its health which allows you quickly sink it with just a cannon shot.

Clearly the devs was not expecting you to actually swim towards it like that. lol

Loved the hit man line "You see that!? He's a pro!" After the magic briefcase hit the last dude. Haha😂

The overfilled inventory in Deus Ex actually has a second use: in two sections of the game, one where Jaime Reyes gives you a free augmentation canister, and later when Gary Savage gives you a free EXP boost, if your inventory is full, JC will decline taking the offered item, but the game will still act as though you accepted it. The genius part is you can then repeat the conversation with the two aforementioned characters as many times as you want, and this glitch will repeat every time you do (just don't make room in your inventory for the item they're offering). This allows you to both max out your EXP points in every area and get all the free aug upgrades for whatever systems you have installed.

That bucket trick in Skyrim is by far the best, worst, and most famous thing of these examples

[TheGiggleMasterP]

There was DEFINITELY that one developer who knew we would try it but no one listened. 😅

Days gone I pray for a sequel one day.
What a memorable game, I miss all the moments of discovery

[marskingdoms]

5:53 the way Deacon shouted 😂, my favorite game ❤ Days Gone

[excess]

I honestly love Days Gone and I feel so happy it is being talked about even if for a short segment. The story was really good. I know it's not going to happen but I genuinely believe that Days Gone deserved a sequel at the least.

How about times devs didn’t want you to do the ONLY thing you wanted to do

[EdinMike]

That GTA 3 tank trick sure took me back ! The cheats in that game were hilarious

[egg-citing]

Gamers are probably just as creative as developers! Great list!! Thanks, gameranx, and Falcon.

[tzeffsmainchannel]

"See that!?" 1:17 "He's a pro!!" 😂

"Unfortunately, these are still Souls games, and you'll probably just die to something else in a few seconds anyway."

This guy Souls.

[declassifiedapparel]

I feel like the Hitman briefcase thing is an example of how sometimes bugs are features

[chekote]

5:53 that scream was unexpected and hilarious 😂

[TheLsewell]

I watch gameranx everyday like an old man reading his morning paper. Thank you

One for the eventual commenter edition of the video:
Command and Conquer sandbags. The AI will not destroy sandbags. You can close off entire sections of the map by building cheap sandbags to anywhere, with the occasional cheap building to provide extra vision. Works in the original and remaster versions. Doesn't work in Red Alert.

For a 3rd installment, I'd suggest the one from Need for Speed Most Wanted Black Edition on PS2 where if you edit the settings of a race map in the Arcade Mode it will apply those settings to the corresponding race(s) in the Career Mode. Back as a teenager I abused the shit out of that one to always only have one opponent and one lap to each race.

The MegaMan trick also works on Blaster Master, but only for a few bosses. It's a notoriously hard game, so any reprieve is welcome. The Skyrim alchemy trick works even better in Morrowind, where you can do that with permanent enchantments. My fav was making a pair of gloves that can open any lock from across any room. If you can see it, you can loot it.
