Making Super Glyphs appear
« on: February 27, 2010, 17:32:44 »
So...
I don't know if I'm the first saying this but the Super-Tri glyph appears when your checkpoint is in D04 and you die. Don't believe me? Start a new Mombasa Streets game on Easy, run to D04, check to see if the Super-Tri is there (it wont be), get a checkpoint in D04 (don't fight for 2 minutes) and kill yourself (in D04 or not, it doesn't matter). The Super-Tri is now there for your viewing pleasure.

So, what about the Super-Di and the Super-Mono (which I have NEVER seen by myself)? Maybe they appear when you get a checkpoint in a district (DXX) and die in the same district (DXX), or maybe they appear when you get a checkpoint in a district (DXX) and die in another district DYY).

WE should try to find what district DXX and DYY are.

So... any questions? Any ideas?

EDIT:
So.. let's get this going on.

There are 64 possible combinations (checkpoint district - death district):
00 - 00     03 - 00     04 - 00     05 - 00     06 - 00     08 - 00     09 - 00     10-00
00 - 03     03 - 03     04 - 03     05 - 03     06 - 03     08 - 03     09 - 03     10-03
00 - 04     03 - 04     04 - 04     05 - 04     06 - 04     08 - 04     09 - 04     10-04
00 - 05     03 - 05     04 - 05     05 - 05     06 - 05     08 - 05     09 - 05     10-05
00 - 06     03 - 06     04 - 06     05 - 06     06 - 06     08 - 06     09 - 06     10-06
00 - 08     03 - 08     04 - 08     05 - 08     06 - 08     08 - 08     09 - 08     10-08
00 - 09     03 - 09     04 - 09     05 - 09     06 - 09     08 - 09     09 - 09     10-09
00 - 10     03 - 10     04 - 10     05 - 10     06 - 10     08 - 10     09 - 10     10-10

We know that 04 - 04 produces the Super-Tri Glyph, which means we need to test 63 combinations.
It shouldn't be too hard if we divided this by everyone...

Oh: because when testing some combinations you have to travel a lot, you need to fight a bit (hurt a little, BE HURT, etc.) so you don't get a checkpoint.

Is dying the only way to get the Super Tri to show? Can't it just pop up by itself?
Good work anyways.
What comes to the Monos and Dis, I feel that they are random...But In other hand, if they are random, shouldn't they pop up as usually as Super Tri (If there is no settings for it's loading/nothing that makes it show only rarely)? Makes you think...
Perhaps this should be tried: Load D4, then get a checpoint in either D1, D6 or D10, die, and get back to Sunken Plaza.

I don't know and but it doesn't really matter. If we know how to produce it 100% of the time, why should we even think about random luck?

Dying is the only way, its most likely a loading glitch. The mono and di glyphs are very puzzling. I have never seen one in the game (minus legendary ending). Just the picture. I say we devote our time to finding the super Di and Mono glyph.

Well, I hope those 64 combinations will be worth it...

I seriously doubt it's just a glitch. I really do believe the game was programmed to behave like this. Maybe it's the first step to reveal the Secret we've been eagerly searching for.

I am working on a chart that i think will be useful for FAQ's. Tell me if anything is wrong. Note: This is not finished. Im still working on it. I meant for the explanation line to be purple.

Here's a chart you can work with.
The first District I'm going to test is D03, because of the 343 stuff.

If i enter D 04 by the BELIEVE door kill the brute captain in the middle of the plaza,then look at the TRI glyph wall theres nothing there,then when i go through that door to the mickeys pod courtyard and come back out the TRI glyph usually always shows up...idk may be a simple way to get it to pop up,or it could mean something?

That technique used to work for me as well.  The key is to find a technique that works consistently for everyone.  We have noticed in multiplayer games that just because the Super Tri appears for one person doesn't mean it appears for everyone.

IIRC, quitting the game when you have a checkpoint at the Magic Wall will cause the Super Tri to appear when you resume your game.  That might be consistent.

You have to die. I dont know if its in the district. But yes. Try to get any checkpoint near the glyph. Kill yourselve. It spawns once youve respawned.

Perhaps we should catalog every way we can make it appear, and try to find a connection with those?
