Found a Bug? A Glitch? An Exploit? Post here!!

When Shiva is holding an empty Uzi and gets close to attack, he just does that vertical kick ender of his over and over. It gets people in a loop but its not that damaging.

This is not a bug, it's a feature. When you get close an ennemy while holding a gun, you will do a combo ender instead of using/launching the gun, it makes more sense and looks more natural.

I've found some bugs/glitches/exploits/whatevers, I don't know if these were already posted, but I feel the urge of reporting them:

1 - Some characters lost or don't have their "running + A" special they gained in V4 (mainly Max's Rolling Boulder).
2 - Still regarding Max's gameplay, he doesn't have his "SOR2 delay pause to emphasize blow connection" when using his Thunder Tackle. Also, his aerial throws (Thunder Body Slam and Atomic Drop) in SOR2 allowed you to score up to 600 points in a row if you press B fast enough while in air - and this is not possible in V5...
3 - SOR3 Skate doesn't have a "power blow" of his own, unlike the other characters - - (even Zan gained a new "Cyber Kick")!
4 - The AI level is sometimes exaggeratedly hard for you to correctly hit enemies with some moves - specially SOR1 Galsia and SOR1 Nora, these seem nearly impossible to connect a combo without being too much bashed.
5 - Some enemy moves - like SOR3 Big Ben's Rolling Ball Attack and SOR3 Signal's Slide Kick - aren't invincible as they were in SOR3/BK3 (despite I'm not fully certain about the second one).
6 - Abadede's behaviours are very like they were in V4, i.e. almost impossible to approach or hit him...

I guess may be others, but for now I've only found these.

BTW, I endorse what was said previously about the bike/jetski scenes being sometimes hellish hard and impossible to beat without some life losses... but hey, these are gleamin' golden touches!

The police icon was stolen.

I'm stuck for this too.

I had that bug once too but only with Rudra... i assumed it was because she doesn't have police back-up and it would be fixed later but turns out it just happens sometimes to anyone. Ah well i'm sure it would be fixed when the Linux port comes out too

It's been mentioned in a few other threads, but the biggest distraction from the game for me at the moment is when the music 'skips' for about 1/2 a second. It happens in maybe 1/3 or 1/4 of the tracks, and is quite frustrating, I know it's only a minor point in the long run, but I love my music!

1 - Some chars have a running special, some don't but have something else instead.
2- Have you looked at the SOR2 settings? The delay is there

Ok anyway, I won't comment the rest coz these are complains, not bugs/glitches/exploits. We don't want these.

I can't download the SORR file...I think the link is already dead. And when I click the microsoft link it brings up the page to download. Then it will say "ur file will post n ?? seconds..." When I click whichever file 2 download nothing happens. Or the down prompt will show & ask if I want to "Run" or "Open". So I stayed patient and ran the file. After it finished downloading it turns out 2 be some random media player??? Can any help?

[dbrown0484]

I've tested the links and they are working fine, are you using an add on for your browser (like noscript) that could be blocking the download?

My pop-up blocker browser came up while tryin' 2 downld. I clicked "download file..." then it proceeded as is...still nothing

I'm having a great time playing SoRR V5, and have pretty much everything unlocked. Because that, I was able to run into several things that might be bugs or exploits.

Here are three of the ones that I find most bothersome:

1. If the CPU loses all its lives during a 1-Player and CPU game, there is a strong possibility the CPU will select a different character rather than whomever Player 1 selects at the Character Select Screen. Is it possible to change this in some way, so that Player 1 can choose or at least influence who the CPU chooses next while still allowing fore the CPU to still self-activate from the continue option?

2. I found the perfect route to gain loads of store points, but after I tried to go back thorough that same route, I learned (as of April 4, 2011) that any item (money, radios, food, gold bars, etc.) that is not a 1-Up or in a container disappears (for example, the radio in the Dark Park scene is missing).

UPDATE 1: I thought this item disappearance bug was due to unlocking the Stage Select because that when I noticed the items were gone, but now I'm not so sure what caused the bug because I just used the Stage Select (as of April 5, 2011) to go to the scenes like the Dark Park and the Dark Park's radio is back. Therefore, I have no clue how to replicate this bug.

UPDATE 2: It seems that the item disappearance bug is more wide spread than I thought. Although, item disappearance is now documented, I leave mine up still, just in case it might provide some clues for BomberLink to tinker with.

3. Souther (SoR1) seems to be more exploitable in comparison to other SoR1 bosses. With all the SoR3 character improvements active, Souther can easily be Blitz spammed, poked to death by running/walking up to him, or grabbing, flurrying, and then smashing him. Is it possible to create a new behavior for him that will at the least cause him to break out of holds after a few seconds in similar fashion to the SoR3 Gunmen? If not, could his regular attack script be tweaked a little so he attacks more often?

Apologies in advance if these aren't what we're looking for in terms of bugs or exploits or look like suggestions. Those solutions are just some things I thought might be simple enough to change without any major reworking of the code (not that I'm an expert, though the CPU solution seems like it will be tougher to do in comparison to the Souther solution).

No exactly a bug or glitch ... but a "Yes or No" menu when you click "Default settings" would be nice... I reset all of my settings by accident ... I love the "yes or no" when you hit quit game though. Thanks for that.

[jeremycarrier]

I love the "yes or no" when you hit quit game though. Thanks for that.

Yeah I remember accidentaly hitting quit back in the old versions and losing allll my progress.

I wasn't too pleased

This would be a nice option, I have done it a couple of times on accident myself.

When changing colors on blaze, the alternate colors for SOR1 and 2 don't match up with SOR3 blaze. When SOR 1 and 2 Blazes are blue, SOR3 blaze is green, and vice versa. This is the epitome of nitpickiness, but there it is.

[Ricky]

It might get changed but if it doesn't there's always the unlockable colour pallett changer

I just downloaded the game and i got to 3rd stage with Skate on the sor1 route. The game just existed out of no where! when i try to re-open the game it says libbgdrtm.dll is missing from my computer, but its in the v5 folder with everything else! UGH PLEASE HELP ME!
