Ok for this to work, you must have:

a) a flying vehicle (i.e. reaver, mosquito...not sure about galaxy but it might work, im gonna try it later tonight for laughs)

b) MUST perform the stunt only at an ENEMY sanctuary warpgate (you know, the ones you can't enter)

I stumbled upon this insanely fun and pointless trick when trying to enter an enemy sanctuary warpgate. To my dismay, I found that I could not enter and ended up loosing half my health when I rammed into it. So, I thought that maybe if I decended from the top of the warpgate I could make it in. Well....it didnt go quite as planned but I did go for the ride of my life :)

Step 1) go above the warpgate dome (using the air vehicle silly, you can't jump that high) and get to the part where its got a bit of a curve but NOT the flat part as you will just hurt yourself by trying to land on it.

Step 2) hover above the slanted part of the dome and begin to decend using C (or whatever you have your decend key set to) once you hit the warpgate ceiling, you should lock on to the surface. You may take some damage, but about 70% of the time you dont. (WARNING: at this point you loose control of your vehicle and you CANNOT move for the rest of the ride)

Step 3) Following the Locking onto the slanted part of the warpgate ceiling (by essentially landing on it) you should begin to slide, yes, thats right, you will SLIDE at incredicle speeds down the side of it and smash into the ground, but WAIT, at this point you WONT be looking right at the respawn screen but you will see yourself doing insane flips and sliding all over the ground like crazy. (NOTE: its best to watch this in second person veiw to see all the cool flips).

I garauntee that you will NOT take any damage at all when you are sliding down AND when you hit the floor and are doing flips and sliding everywhere. The only times you can take damage is if you land on the warpgate ceiling at an odd angle OR if once you are done with the ride, you take off and hit a tree on the way up :)

PLEASE do not report this ( or atleast not for now) it is not harming anyone in any way and it is just SO DAM FUN!!!

Try it for yourself, I have duplicated this event myself and with 2 other people many, many times with success about 95% of the time (died once when I landed on the ceiling facing the wrong way). Please everyone try this and experiment with different positions and post it here!

If you have any other questions on how to perform this, just post it. ALSO someone please tell me if this has already been found and im just repeating it :( I think im the first one to find it cuz I broadcasted about it and no one knew what the hell I was talking about lol.

Good Luck!!! :D

oh, and about 2 min ago I tried it with a galaxy, it was quite hard but it is possible. Definetly not as fun as reaver or mosquito because they are lighter and do more flips, but I did get it to bounce about 300 feet in the air. OMG THIS IS SO FUN!!!

no, it wont let you, you cant bail over an enemies sanctuary warpgate, it will say its an invalid place to bail, or something like that.

best way to do it is with a reaver or a mosquito :) I prefer reaver because it has more health, so u get more chances :)

NEW INFO!!! it works best if you position your air vehicle SIDEWAYS when landing on the dome, that way I can assure you that you wont take damage. Good Luck!

To take advantage of this new trick, we could even implement a new sport called "warpgate sliding" and we could have contests on who could do the most tricks or slide the longest :)

i'll have to try this.

The most entertaining thing that i've done is managed to launch (and i mean launch) my Galaxy 1000m straight up in literally 1 second.

Normally, at 400m or so, there's a ceiling, well, i blasted past that in a hurry. it flashed once at 400, half a second later it read 800, then it read 1054 before i started to descend.

I don't know how i did it...

but i was trying to land inside the bases wall in a CY. i was receiving the usual improper landing warning and couldn't quite get on lvl ground. you know, the point you're a half foot off and can slide around.

well, i tried to force the landing by holding my "c" key and was getting that bump off the ground when suddenly the walls and base just dropped away. i managed to tip my nose down to watch it all flash away and next thing i know.. my galaxy was 1000m high.

i got tons of laughter from my squad mates cause the saw my meteoric rise and thought i crashed.... a minute later i came hovering back down... i got a lot of woah...

Well i tried it, but something really pissed me off. I went to the vs wg in esamir to do it, but then 2 enemy reavers came through, and since i couldnt go in the bubble, they killed me.
So i did it again, locked on (sideways) and tumbled down. Yeah you spin a lot and go down really fast, but im not sure what the big deal is. Maybe im not doing it right.

First off, I said in the explanation of this that it was fun AND pointless, so dont be surprised if after you do it your like "wow, that was really fun and such a waste of time!". Secondly, one of the reasons you didnt have as much fun was because you have to find a good spot to slide onto. For instance, you can go to the TR sanctuary warpgate in Creshyen ( I recomend this ALOT) and there is a snowy hill thingy that juts out from the warpgate that basically makes a halfpipe that you can slide onto and do insane tricks off of. Thats actually the place where I first found out about this trick. Try that, maybe you will have more fun that way.

you dont need to go to a warpgate to try this find a nice tall hill and try to land on the slope 90% of the time you start to slide, if you can find a hill with a jump at the bottom its even more fun.
