People are saying it’s X on PlayStation and not Square. It might have to do with what handbrake controls you have. I’m not sure. I would have thought it to be the same corresponding button on PS as on Xbox.
BTW when killing God Mode users use Out of Sight and you can hide the tank in the tunnel. It doesn't count it as a kill if they're in god mode and you stay off the radar.
Wow. This is awesome. I've been playing since it came out on PC and I've never heard or even seen this. An absolutely awesome trick and really appreciate you putting up the video on it because it's cool as hell. Definitely going to be digging out some Arena War cars today!
I wish more people knew how to do this. I've never seen someone else do it other than me, ghillie and those in his streams. It took me a couple hours to get used to it the first time.
You're spilling the secrets! Great vid, very straightforward. Another unique move to mention, the Arena Dominator can stop mid-air by holding the button to activate shunting + brake
someone in my lobby which i didn’t know came to me with their zr350 and let me in his car. I was just chilling and then he started shunt hopping, i was so fascinated that i also started to learn it and now i can do it almost constantly! (it’s been 2 years since)
I have been doing this for a couple of years now after seeing it in either Ghillies channel or someone else's and it NEVER gets old! I will definitely try reverse hopping
If you're new, TRY THE DOMINATOR. I tried the zr350 first, and it was hard for a beginner, the dominator seems to get higher with less effort/more room for mistakes
I can shunt hop all the arena vehicles (yes even the Cerberus, learned it the fastest)i cant shunt hop the scarab It always resets itself mid air or it cant even get past the first jump and shunt boost bc it wont go sideways
@@IDKWHAT2NAMETHISS scarab is the hardest for me so far, you need to stay away from buildings because it kind of resets itself any time it gets near one. Try practicing at the airport, or the sandy shores airstrip. I still haven't mastered the scarab shunt hop
I was chasing someone in one of these for killing me for cruising (his words). He did this right in front of me, and I turned my console off. And thanks for teaching me about the handbrake flatspin thing!
IMPORTANT: in your control settings, make sure "switch handbrake with duck/hydraulics" is set to on. Otherwise, your LB/L1 will be both the handbrake and shunt left, which will cause problems.
People learning in 2024: Yes, the ZR380 does have easier midair control, but I tried on the ZR380, and it was difficult, I found the Brutus much easier. I would also recommend that you jump off of a place like a bridge, if you start at the casino, and go towards the bridge then jump off through the little gap between the bridge wall and the building next to it, hope this helps.
Yeey thank you for the guide. Never tested this, I sure will. I also liked how so many others shared here their skill and experience, so we can learn even more 🖤
A note to new players if you're trying to do this try to keep your wheels at a 90° angle or less with the ground. If your roof begins to face the ground more than your wheels the car will not want to shunt boost and you will fall
The zr380 doesn’t boost twice in the same direction the only way I can keep it up is gain t left right left right and that’s not great the monster truck worked fine
You can go outside of the map with this, since the scripted engine kill that happens when you go too far out of the map has no effect on the Arena war vehicles because they can still shunt boost even after the engine dies.
@@xswat Either they unpatched it or you didn't get out far enough. Because you could fly out for 20 minutes and more and the game would crash. But they added a death barrier like 1 year ago or longer. You could even get godmode from it.
I miss the launch you could do with the Sasquatch. Same inputs, but before you land on a car, you shunt. For some reason, the car would launch skyward, hitting you and sending you super high too if you had the positioning right.
been doing this on a keyboard I didn't know you have to hold the hand break so that it wont tilt much in the air this is my problem when I do a combo of jumps but then lost control mid air Thx Ghillie for this👏
@@konnermckenzie9211it was my second arena war car cuz i liked it, but started hopping around with it today lol I can already fly for a block of the city or two, but i often mess up the in air handling, so that requires some practice
I knew I wasn’t stupid for wasting millions and millions on arena war cars cause I liked the way they looked. They do have utility outside of the arena!!
Im not sure this works anymore with the sasquatch. I can consistently get like 5 or 6 perfect shunt boosts but at some point i completely lose vertical momentum and i start dropping. If it does still work, any tips to prevent this?its like at some point the boost loses power
@@mrincorrect9972 I haven’t flown the with the Brutus in a while but doesn’t it try to rotate while in the air? I’ve tried the Bruiser and it’s a better flier but I just like Sasquatch too much. The bruise turns quite badly on land.
I know this probably isn't gonna get answered but what car are you driving in the beginning of the video? I can't tell if it's the dominator or imperator lol
I wish All the arena cars got a buff taking a few more RPGs or access to the Imani's lock on jammer would make these way more safe and fun to drive in lobbies and at least let us take these on Heist setups and missions! It would be awesome 😎 jumping over the cops in getaways Lol 😂
I couldn't get this to work consistently until I understood one crucial thing, so here's a tip for beginners: your car won't shunt when you're DRIFTING the opposite way to your shunt direction. this, for some reason, also applies in mid-air. how do we understand this? simple: by now you should know that holding your handbrake allows you to rotate your car flat, instead of rolling. that rotation is similar, in nature, to drifting. so when you're shunting to the right, that specific rotation CANNOT be happening to the left, or you're prevented from shunting (regardless if you're holding the handbrake or not). basically, just make sure to keep the handbrake rotation of your car steady before trying to shunt, and it should work every time. I hope this helps anyone trying to learn this in 2024.
@@bigjaspereightysixth40 you might be ever so slightly rotating it upside down. if you pass the 90° point where your roof starts facing the ground, the handbrake rotation stops working. try starting your flight at a 45° angle, and counter early, that could help.
I've tried everything to even get the shunt to work. Thought it was because I had the gun attached to my apocalypse car but that's not even it. Love wasting money because of shit developers lmao. I can't even put any of my guns away in this car for no reason. I don't understand at all I've spent over 6 mil to get this shitter of a car for it to not even do that I want it
3:50 what are the controls to turn the front of the car upwards/downward? I can pretty much do everything else consistently (also a little hard to gain height mid flight ATM, any tips are appreciated)
Number one reason You should try shunt hopping: Feeling the satisfaction of killing a jet greiffer with a rainbow goofy ahh flying truck. Trust me its an amazing feeling
I've tried extremely hard, but i cant do this.. ill be able to do it twice into the air but that's it, when i press X the car spins of of control.. even if i tap it fast, when i first do the jump, i literally cant stabilize it sideways cause it just keeps flipping by itself, i try the handbrake too but the car starts spinning.. has this been patched?, saw someone else that used to do it but they cant anymore
This is one of the best explanations I've seen of how to fly them, nice to see so I can just link this to everyone who asks me lol We need a shunt competition now since we shunt pilots are getting more common
Man, if this really works, wow! Nothing else to say. But what decals have you used to make that zr380 so damn cool?! It looks like a tank with sport wheels or something!

@@GhillieMaster how do i use the shunt boost on keyboard then? i tried every my known button combination E is jumping and holding X and pressing different buttons doesnt do anything
People are saying it’s X on PlayStation and not Square. It might have to do with what handbrake controls you have. I’m not sure. I would have thought it to be the same corresponding button on PS as on Xbox.
Console won't change the designated buttons, you're right. Change handbrake button and all should work.
I'm on PS5 and my handbrake controls are switched. My shunt boost is performed by holding Square and tapping L1, or R1.
Normal controls are x + R1/L1 on ps5 yeah

@@clarkesuperman It can!
@@mr.razington7881 that’s amazing
if your car won’t stop rolling stop holding x. you can’t control the car while holding the button for shunt . this held me back for like 2 hours lol
That didn’t stop the Brutus I have from rolling. As a matter of fact nothing could.
Do I need to buy the boost upgrades to do better or no?

Same thing happened to me last week
The reactions are so good when people see me shunt hopping my Cerberus
Shout out to all the people that can do shunt hops backwards, that stuff is nuts lol
Funny enough I was practising shunt hopping over the weekend after watching your two videos tutorials again.
You're guides to this made me a pro to this. I love shunting around and showing random people what I can do. It's awesome. Thanks Ghillie
Better than any godmode glitch in the game. Bravo

I started doing this a week ago. I’m pretty smooth now due to ur first cid abt this 😂
Ghillie, PS shunt boost is also X+L1/R1, square swaps guns.
Really? For me on Xbox it’s X and it also swaps guns for me with X.
@@GhillieMasterif you have the handbrake swapped to A it’s X to shunt but if you have it on the default it’s A
