Gruesomely enjoyable Dark Sector glitches

Posted over on their developer blog, the Dark Sector team decided to give everyone an insider's peek into some of the final bugs and glitches they discovered while nearing the end of the game's development cycle. But before you start to yawn and thoughts of missing textures or broken geometry glitches enter your mind, know that we aren't talking about those kind of bugs. We're talking about bugs and glitches where the AI goes crazy, the physics create spectacular sights and flaming bodies get launched through the air. Yes sir, over the top, hilariously gruesome glitches. Thankfully, the Dark Sector team captured video of a few of these glitches before they were removed and, well ... we'll let you watch the awesome for yourself. Personally, we would have kept the vending machine "bug" in the final build ... that is so many types of awesome.

They should have but it in as a random event, every now and then a bad guy gets squished by a vending machine, would add some realism.

However does this mean that you could potentially crush an enemy with a vending machine?

Ha that's awesome. I think vending machines will still kill. The bug was probably that the thing fell over for no reason. I bet if you put a bomb behind it, you could blow it into someone.
