Discovered it early on but I didn’t know they couldn’t detect you while doing it. I thought it was just a little hidden animation, like if you stay idle too long

The wiki says the hiding tactic doesn't work unless the guards arrived from out of range on the minimap.

It works much better in Jak 3, probably the mechanics and and collision detection being improved over 2. I never used it to escape because they always found me, I thought it was just something they put in so that way jak isn’t walking in place into a wall like he would try to in 1. My tactic to escape was either exit the city to dead town/pumping station, those cracks in the slums near Torn that the guards and npc’s can’t enter, or the port.

I've known about this for many years. Used it to escape the wanted status plenty.

0:47 "it's a prison for crying out loud" said like a true mob boss

I always used this to run away from the guards when they were chasing me

I knew this exists, never thought much of it

I knew about this move, but never knew it had actual function

Known about this even back in like 2006 when I played. Used it on low hp too.

About time someone mentioned this.

I do remember seeing this move mentioned in my Italian booklet (I'm from Italy), but I couldn't figure out how to make it (ti did only say: "we can escape from the guards by hiding behind a wall). At first, I thought it was a scrapped tattic that remained in the manual, but then I saw your video and others talking about it and yes, it is actually possible.

The same for me here, I can confirm it was one of Daxter's tips in the booklet. Me and a friend of mine discovered this move rather early on, but quickly disregarded it 'cause we thought It was just easier to steal a zoomer and escape. Source: I'm Italian too

I really thought this was common knowledge. I'm mindblow it isnt

I remember when I found out about this I had found it messing around and assumed other people knew about it too. I can't exactly remember when I found out about it though. Not like it mattered anyway since I didn't spend any time in the community then so I wouldn't have told anyone.

Adding a stealth tech

Ive done this before i just thought it was a random animation that looked cool, didnt realize it had a purpose.

I knew when it came.out, but I never ever been able to reproduce it

I was wondering I anyone else knew about this.
