One small step for a mech, one giant leap for mechkind

Dr_Freeze001

 

 

 

 

Ever since I started my modest attempts at mapclimbing years ago, I dreamt about landing on the Moon of Origin.

I knew it was but a dream, but a man can dream, can't he?

 

Years went by, but I never let go of the idea that maybe, just maybe, there was a way. And, as I learned one day, there was: while sipping from a glass of Baba-Gin at the local bar, I overheard two guys discussing a mineral extraction mission to the Moon. It was to launch in two months: the Orbital Freighter that hovered above Origin would ferry several fleets of Extractor Drones Mark III, as part of a government program to boost the state economy.

 

Yes! That was it! All I had to do was make it on the blue energy wall surrounding the map, secretly board the freighter from it and hide there until I got to the Moon. Easy!

 

But...

 

Soon I realized it was not as simple. Times and times again did I attempt to scale the wall, using every last bit of my imagination, employing countless combos of mech classes and loadouts, and trying all known climbing techniques. But, as time went by, I came to a dreadful realization: the colossal walls were simply too high, towering at double the altitude of the second-highest structure on Origin. There was no way up, no matter what trickery I used.

 

Just as I started to succumb to despair, an eureka moment struck me: "What if... just what if... it were possible to deploy a blockade on a mech? That sure sounds crazy, I know, but... has anyone actually tried it?"

 

Then I asked my buddy Meraple to help me experiment with this silly idea... And it worked!

 

 

 

Without skipping a moment, we grabbed our buddies from KDR, and then...

 

A PLAN WAS BORN!

I understand that climbing is different than floating up, but since you had access to some sort of observer mode you could of just flown up.

Normally I would say something along the lines of...map climbing is for "sukas". But this was genuinely beautiful. Great work.

DerMax 2 months ago...

 

"From now on it'll maybe take 2 or 3 hours."

 

I remember the practice for the "blockade elevator". I simply lost patience. Respect for putting so much skill, patience(!) and dedication into this project before the glitches will be fixed. There shouldn't be too many games that allow such exploits.

I had no idea you could put a Blockade on a Mech's head.
