Getting Out of Exodus; Mysterious Banshee
Posted By: Lord Friendship <steverichey01@gmail.com>Date: 3/31/11 7:22 a.m.


When I saw that someone had been stranded on the beach in Exodus in a over-burdened Falcon, it made me wonder if said beach was accessible on foot.

It turns out you can fly from the Beachhead area of this level over there with the jetpack. I didn't know if anyone had done this before, but I thought it was neat anyways. Here's a short video showing how to do it (unrendered, sorry):

Basically, when the Falcon drops you off for the last portion of this level, ignore all the enemies and hug the beach. Eventually you'll come to a cliff with a few bits of driftwood. From the water you can fly up (through the Out of Bounds warning) to a small safe area. Once your jetpack recharges, you can fly over to the beach you previously flew over in the Falcon. This video shows all the exploration that I did over there (long, unrendered, sorry):

There's no BOB over there, which is what I was hoping for. But, there is an unoccupied Banshee, which unfortunately you cannot use because Banshees seem to be forbidden in this level. I thought this was interesting; is it an artifact from my earlier trip through here, or is it some kind of secret? Is there some way to activate Banshee boarding for the level? I'm going to try some stuff and see what happens.

In any case, you can "walk" on the water, making Six look like he's floating. This video shows that (short, but unrendered, sorry again):

Anyway, just a neat area I found. I haven't seen anyone else get over there, so I thought HBO might like it. Enjoy!
