Remember stair dismount?

Get Truck Dismount!

I like putting him in position three with ramps and seeing how far I can make him fly over the wall.

I've gotten up to 52k. Getting the truck to land on him isn't easy to do.

Heh, I found a position where his legs get stuck inside the windshield, just need to somehow do that AND have the truck come down on the windshield with him trapped there for mega points

Update : I got a really nasty one going, just his arm gets stuck in the windshield and he gets hurled around like a rag doll when the truck flips. His arm actually disjoints for a few seconds while it happens

I forgot to take pictures, sadly, but I got one where he got blown forward by a truck impact, then squashed between it and the wall

Like I said, try setting him in position three, the ramps about 1/4 from the left slider (And level with each other) with the truck on full speed.

It's fun to watch 'em fly. I've even gotten him on TOP of the wall!

He got slammed between the wall and the truck so hard his head got jammed INSIDE the front of the truck, which proceeded to roll over and whip him around by the head all over the place before finally settling there

How do you people do these crazy mid-air acrobatics? I've gotten a few flips in the air but not before he took a lot of damage. Vorago's little "get his head trapped in the truck" explaination makes no sense to me. I barely figured out how to launch him over the wall.

If you put him in position six and then move the ramps so that they're at his feet, he gets ejected.

Hilarity and profit ensues.

You need to have him in position number 4 so he is sitting on the windshield. As long as you keep the truck speed over 80% or so, he wont slide down the front due to the foward momentum being enough to stick him there for a long enough time. This also puts him in the best launch position, since he stays pretty much in place for the entire trip to the ramps, unlike the others where he tends to slide backwards into a heap of sorts

Then you need to arrange them so that moment when he is in front of the truck before continuing down is just as the truck strikes the wall

The you need two ramps, placed so each only hits one side of the tires. I started with the truck's right side and then left so I could see him easier. They need to be placed so their shadows barely overlap at the corners, which at like 90 --> 100% truck power will chuck him foward in front of the truck for a second

And then you need to alter the speed/ramp placement/body placement so he is in front of whatever corner of the truck happens to strike the wall first, with the most force

If you get any part of his body between the first point of impact and the wall at pretty much full speed, it ends up jamming that particular body part inside the truck

Now, I got his head/torso stuck in the truck, which netted me 130k, but on the 'net people got 230k as the highest score
I think to do that, you would need to fine tune the ramps/speed/placement so rather than one corner striking the wall first, the entire front of the truck meets it flatly. Same force, much larger area of impact. If you could position him so he is sort of lying flat in front of the truck as this happens, you would most likely jam his entire body inside at once as opposed to just a limb or two. And then you would get crazy full body damage pings over and over as the truck bounces/rolls/settles.

I can't see any other way to rack up 230k points

But since I've already wasted 2 hours on this, not even going to bother trying to get 230k

If you have him start off sitting on the top of the truck (Which always results in him falling over and laying on his back) and set the two ramps up at the same level but seperated enough so the front tire comes back down off the first directly onto the 2nd, the back of the truck will strike him like a catapult

It sinks down when the tire hits the 2nd ramp, which puts him airborne, but when the front goes up the back tired strike the first ramp and snap it back up MUCH faster. Depending how you tweak it you can hurl him WAY over the wall, or straight up

Using this method I got him to hurl so far over the wall the wall almost disappeared into the fog from his view.
Also got him to go straight up hard enough that the truck had fully settled before he came back down He bounced like a rubber ball right back up, a little over the height of the wall, off that hit, heh

That's easy.

Getting him to take the least damage without the truck hitting him is the challenge.

I think I win the low score.

I finally got to use the judge smiley!

"He lets the last Hungarian go, and he goes running. He waits until his wife and kids are in the ground and he goes after the rest of the mob. He kills their kids, he kills their wives, he kills their parents and their parents' friends. He burns down the houses they grew up in and the stores they work in, he kills people that owe them money. And like that he was gone. Underground. No one has ever seen him again. He becomes a myth, a spook story that criminals tell their kids at night. 'If you rat on your pop, Keyser Soze will get you.'
