PHASE SHIFT -- AN ALTERNATIVE
What would Phase Shift be like if it allowed heroes to walk through walls, mountains, and other objects in COH? Well, no need to guess any longer! While trying to get into a mission door, the game froze. Upon hard quitting the game and logging back in, my entire team found themselves materialized INSIDE a mountain in Talos Island!!! And let me tell you... IT WAS AWESOME!!!!
The only drawback was that we couldn't get out from the inside of the mountain, but oddly enough we COULD attack villains who were above us ontop of the mountain. They could not attack back, however. Oooooo, it was cooooooool! We were even able to poke our heads out of the ground to look around a bit. How did we get out? Well, one of our team mates was laggin behind and didn't click on the mission door, so his game never crashed and was never rubber banded into a solid mountain... too bad for him, but good for us as he teleported us out! Interestingly, we could NOT teleport him into the mountain with us.
All right, so this is how Phase Shift would look while phased INSIDE of an object without any additional adjustments made... and man, it's COOL! Check out the screen shots I took while INSIDE THE MOUNTAIN...
