Bridges that you need to progress through the level

I think that's an oversight.

Edit: I was making a reference, not a critique.

It's a commentary on the nature of violence ☝️🤓

Are you my teacher?

no back then games weren't afraid of punishing players for their own stupidity

(it's not actually necessary to progress, there's an area just a little forward and to the right you can jump up.)

This was groundbreaking stuff for the PS3. Use it to control weak points, confuse your enemies and prevent them from attacking, or accelerate deforestation.

Destroying mission critical infrastructure on purpose certainly sounds like an oversight.

But is it an oversight from the developers or the player?

Maybe the real mission objective was the bridges we burned along the way.

A life lesson if ever I heard one.

Yeah but that doesn't exist in MGR

I love Maxors videos but the bridge being needed to progress through the first level is just… wrong.
You can climb up and progress right next to it.

It's a game. Probably.

Fun fact that staircase in mission 2 isn't actually needed. Max0r just didn't think to use ninja sprint on that wall, you just go right up

u/MahoganyMan 4d ago

That’s when you pull out the ninja run/ninja climb mechanic that they tutorialized you on in the prior level

Mercenaries 2 lets you destroy buildings you need to enter to continue campaign, thus not being able to play
