Just for Fun - Falcon Distance Launching

For anyone who enjoys just horsing around in the game, I have a small challenge for you. See how far you can launch yourself off of the falcon Jorge emerges from early in the level Winter Contingency. Consider the windmills to be distance markers. I have a video of a few attempts on my part, with the final two being decent. Also in the video, I show a way to jump on top of the house and buy yourself an extra few seconds to get on top of the falcon before it leaves (which is not always easy to do). You should be able to checkpoint right outside the room where you first encounter it, so you don’t have to run far between attempts.

A rendered video showing some examples can be found <HERE> on my B.net file share.

Good luck!

I came into this thread thinking “wow, people still play this game for fun!?”

Then all I saw was a video full of fail, I am disappoint.

this is not what i was expecting, i was expecting some sort of trick with the falcon that launched you extremely fast and fare out of the map, this is just continuously dieing.

that’s nothing, i got a Falcon stuck in a rock!

not joking, i have the vid to prove it
