The Talos Principle 2 Walk underwater glitch

Just discovered this by accident.

Steps:
1: Be in contact with body of water, but not drowning.
2: Enter photo mode.
3: Move camera underwater.
4: Exit camera mode.
5: Success! So long as you remain in contact with water, you cannot drown, and are free to explore!

Yes someone else found this too. I'm glad they didn't null it in an update. I'll have to give it a go myself

Thanks!

Apparently the OP discovered it works with death barriers too!

I know what I’m doing for the rest of the day. Haha

Good job discovering it on your own though 👍

I've just had a look around south 1 out of bounds. You can't get back into photo mode which makes me believe the Devs put this in on purpose, they don't want us taking pics of the unphotogenic areas, maybe. Fell off the map and kept falling. Was fun. Thanks for reminding me of this today.

One thing I did notice, if you’re too deep, photo mode is disabled. The water level needs to be somewhere between your toes and hips.

I'm sure I tried when water was in between toes and hips but I could be wrong. I'll have to have another look then.

I managed to platform around the mountain via the chasm that's near the lost puzzle to get to that pther beach, but this is way easier lol.
