I've been wondering how this trick might work and I came to the following conclusion: there must be a spot where the enemies are programmed to aim on, probably my chest or head. But it won't be useful in most other levels because it won't give you any advantage against less dangerous enemies and navigating while looking against the roof or floor is very difficult. I'm using this trick on especially the last two levels and in a light variant in segment 19 and 21.
"Looking up/down" trick: If you look up or down enemies with a high accuracy will hit you less or even almost at all. However, there are some vents where this trick doesn't work. That means you can walk at normal speed through vents. The upper half of your body will be inside the structure around the vent but your legs will still be in-bounds. Duck, crouch just a few centimeters into a vent and then stand up. Vent-clipping: Almost the same as normal clipping. But it's a bit slow, so there are many places where this trick is useless. You will move through walls or out-of-bounds areas. After you did that and one half of your body is stuck inside the wall, you strafe into the walls direction and hold the button and then rapidly press the aim-button again and again. Sometimes parts of the environment push you against a wall, like in segment 1, and sometimes a wall doesn't even seem to be solid and you can just walk against it. When you fall down one half of your body will be inside the wall. Stay on the edge with the wall vertically to you, so that one leg is on the wall and the other in the air. Stay on top of a structure that has an edge which goes down in a 90° angle (like a wall or something comparable). Sometimes that's a convenient thing, sometimes it doesn't matter and sometimes it even ruins attempts.Ĭlipping: To be able to clip you need a part of your body to be half-stuck inside a structure. Something else I want to explain is that the console is often not able to load things like enemies, parts of the environment or whole areas of a level fast enough or it doesn't load them at all. And if I made a mistake I can just kill myself, which has the same effect as a quick level reset function in some other games. So whenever I die I can start again in one second. It takes a lot of time for a level to load once, but after it did and you die, the level restarts immediately.
You might wonder why there's no loading before a level starts. In fact you can even start a level with 0% health by performing a certain trick on hard skill. On medium you will start with a minimum of 50% (unless you've left the previous level with more health) and on hard difficulty the health won't be refilled at all.

That said, I have completed the segments in this particular order: 1, 5-7, 2-4, 8-13, 15-17, 21-23, 18-20, 24, 14, 25-27.įurthermore on easy setting you will start each level with full health, so there's no need to worry about health inconsistencies. And a game can only be saved after a level is completed. That means you can run missions independently from each other and you can always re-run the last level of a mission. The weapons and ammunition you've completed level A with will be saved, so you will always start level B with the same ammunition unless you restart and complete level A. You can always start every level you have completed from the menu. Weapons and ammunition are carried over to the next level of a mission but never to the next mission. This game is made of 8 missions with 3-4 levels each and a total count of 27 levels. I've done the run on easy difficulty, which is, unlike in most other games, the standard difficulty and comparable to the skill in the first game. And in this game you can decide between three difficulties. Underground is more difficult, the levels have more enemies and objectives and their design is often not as linear as in the predecessor. But there are also many differences between the two games. That means I can use all the tricks from the previous speedrun here too, like strafe-running or clipping. The game's engine of Medal of Honor Underground is the same as in the first Medal of Honor game.
