Pane in the Neck is the first stage of the Glass Smash series in the Challenges for TimeSplitters 2.
Strats
This is one of the levels that is effected by version differences. On the NTSC version, grenades from the Soviet S47 go farther than they do on the PAL version, which allows for slightly faster times on the NTSC version.
NTSC:
1. Right at the start, turn 90 degrees and shoot a grenade to the far building. To make sure you get all four of the panes you have to keep a pretty low angle. The grenade should be aimed only slightly above the wall in front of you. This shot is very inconsistent, as almost always only three of the four panes are taken out, but it is needed for a very fast time.
2. Now shoot a grenade above the building in front, so that it takes out all four panes.
3. Turn and walk up the stairs, while you shoot a grenade through the right pane of the top row of the big building. The grenade can destroy all of the ten panes of the building, however the odds of destroying them all are very low.
4. Quickly shoot a grenade over the big building, so that it destroys the panes of the small building. This shot isn't easy, because if you aim to high, it doesn't destroy the farthest pane and if your angle is too low, it doesn't destroy the doorpane.
In order to complete this strategy, you will have to try this many times, as three of the four shots are inconsistent. This makes the strat somewhat luck dependant.
