For some reason I can't perform manglewood skip no matter what. I've tried it a load of times, and I can't get it at all. Is there a guide or something anywhere to help?
I'm playing on PS4 in version 1.0.0 if that matters at all.
This is apparently an 'easy' way to do Manglewood skip:
I quote unquote 'easy' because I personally don't find it easier. I find standing next to the right metal pole thing, then jumping on it as the platform rises easier. It's all down to practice honestly. Just do it over and over again until you've nailed it. I don't think you're incapable.
Make sure you're doing it correctly too. There's no point repeating a setup that doesn't work.
Personally, I like to stand next to the right metal pole thing, then jumping on it as the platform rises, then run off the edge and spam triangle until you hear yourself change into Oddsock, then stop spamming, fall to your death and respawn. I'd suggest holding left so you don't activate the cutscene, because even though you've done the skip, you still lose a lot of time by watching Marlon Random blabber on about nothing.
GLHF.
For some reason, even when I get it (and can actually see oddsock appear and everything) when I die I still respawn as sackboy. Is there something I'm doing wrong here?
I had the same problem. I fixed it by restarting my PS4. If that doesn't work, just update to the newest version of the game. You really don't need to play on old versions unless you're competing for 1st, in which case you'll need Boost Boots flying.
As of today. Runs that meet the video requirement threshold have to include a bit of the loading screen before entering the level. This is to accommodate for the new rule "Timing starts on the frame that the loading screen stops...." This decision was made so that runs could be more precisely timed!
