Speed Run Revived

  • Hey - turns out IRC is out and something a little more modern has taken it's place... A little thing called Discord!

    Join our community @ https://discord.gg/JuaSzXBZrk for a pick-up game, or just to rekindle with fellow community members.

I suppose my record still stands then...? Easily beatable tbh, cuz i didn't use the boots.
My route was:
get pads
backhammer to the rock with the health
walk backwards and hammer up to the path (like datel did)
dodge on the sliding wall by the gate to the castle, hammerjump from the top of it to the top (4hp left)
confused and annoyed having to wait about 20 secs till the underground doors switch can be triggered

So by taking boots and/or shieldbelt it should be easily beatable :)

shieldbelt is of no advantage anyway, as I cant see how you can be quicker with it after underground. I can only push the underground switch after 49 seconds :confused: Is it bugged or what do you mean with 55?

I can't believe none of you figured it out yet.....
yes there is a timed delay that you have to wait for for the button to work
however, this timer starts when the server starts, not when the map starts...... so just wait and do not start the map for a while (as i do in my dem)

in conclusion, yes I did use preview4 and afaik 1:10 holds atm

edit: btw nice dustbowl time :) dems ffs :(
edit2: oh btw I'm sure all the times on the newer maps are still improvable so get on it you guys! :D

Soz, my ut crashes if i demo offline with leagueAS.. dunno why, but im too lazy to fix it :lol: - i might have a go tonight if i got time.. dunno if i'll hit 1:13 again tho - had a perfect spawn and then perfect dodging/jumps and HJs.. maybe i can do 1:12 if i spend an hour or 2 on it, but no time for hours of speedruns atm :P

my route: i used pretty much the same route as you, but i changed the hammer jumps a bit on the end run, oh and i use the light on the right to jump over for the switch to disable the final laser field, which knocks about 1/2 a second off or so :)

oh, and thats a bit of a cheat :P.. I spose you could do the same for overlord then so you get the perfect timing on the morter comin down as you get there too :P

ahh nice one at lamp, i missed that :P yeah i think even with my route you could do 1:14 or better so go for it :D

I don't see why wait is a cheat btw... imo it's much less of a 'trick' than retrying for better spawns, just a property of the map
btw let's say we *do* treat it as a cheat..... then how are you going to make people start at exactly the same time? (this is why you could not find equal times for the button)

edit: oh and that's what I did for overlord btw.... just can be done even better (12s anybody? :D)
 
Like I said a couple of weeks ago, I want to start 2 man record runs this week. I still need help on regulating this, so please PM me any suggestions as this requires a bit more thought process than individual, i.e server use.
 
tydium has a retriggerdelay of exactly 60 seconds, so with the various outcomes taken into mind, it starts as soon as the server starts..

It's supposed to be open right away but somehow the trigger starts with being offline 60 seconds before it can be triggered, however the trigger is set to initially active.. If you set it to inactive and make it being activated by some sort of movement in the map (like the first mover in de dropship) it will probably work fine!

Strange but well that's what i can say about it.

what would captain picard say now?

Code:
    * "This is a primitive culture. I am here to facilitate its incorporation" -Picard identifying himself to the dissconnected Borg Hugh.
    * With the first link the chain is forged. The first speech censored, the first thought forbidden, the first freedom denied, chains us all irrevocably. - quoting Aaron Satie in the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "The Drumhead"

    * Villains who twirl their mustaches are easy to spot. Those who clothe themselves in good deeds are well camouflaged, waiting for the right climate in which to flourish, spreading fear in the name of righteousness.'Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "The Drumhead"

    * "Space, the final frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise. Its continuing mission: to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go where no one has gone before!"

        * Picard's introduction spoken during the opening credits of each episode.

    * "Make it so!"

        * Picard's common utterance to crew to execute an order; various episodes.

    * "I am Locutus of Borg. Resistance is futile. Your life, as it has been, is over. From this time forward, you will service us."

        * Picard to Riker after being assimilated by the Borg in "The Best of Both Worlds".

    * "They took everything I was! They used me to kill ... and to destroy. And I couldn't stop them! I should've been able to stop them. I tried so hard!"

Robert Picard: "So my brother is a human being after all. This will be with you a long time, Jean-Luc. A long time."

        * Picard's tearful confession to his brother Robert in "Family".

    * "Reports of my assimilation are greatly exaggerated."

        * Picard's emerging on the Enterprise-E bridge in Star Trek: First Contact; a takeoff on "Reports of my death are greatly exaggerated", popularly attributed to Mark Twain.

    * Q: "It's an unknown – isn't that enough?"

Picard: "If you'd earned that uniform you're wearing, you'd know it's the unknown that brings us out here!"

        * "Encounter at Farpoint"

    * "There...are...four...lights!"

        * Picard's final retort to Madred after being released from Cardassian captivity in "Chain of Command: Part II", asserting that he could not be subjugated.

    * "One thing is clear: you'll never look at your hairline the same way again."

        * Picard to Jason Vigo, his supposed newly-found son, in "Bloodlines".

    * "Dr. Fesbinder gave an hour long dissertation on the ionization of warp nacelles before he realized that the topic was supposed to be psychology."

La Forge: "Why didn't anybody tell him?" Picard: "There was no opportunity. There was no pause. He just kept talking in one long incredibly unbroken sentence, moving from topic to topic, such that no one had the chance to interrupt him, it was really quite hypnotic."

        * A humorous scene in "Timescape".

    * "Gilgamesh and Enkidu at Uruk."

        * Picard relating the concept of co-operation, using an ancient Earth legend, to an alien whose culture communicates entirely with metaphors, in "Darmok".

    * "Shut up, Wesley!"

        * Picard in "Datalore".

    * "On the starship Enterprise, no one is alone. No one."

        * Picard, "The Bonding"

    * "You have the bridge ... Mr. Troi."

        * Picard to Riker, just after his marriage to Troi is interrupted by a Starfleet mission, in Star Trek: Nemesis.

    * Tea. Earl Grey. Hot. - Various (often said near a replicator).

    * Engage! - Various

    * To each his own, number one - TNG Season 3 Episode 19: Captain's Holiday

    * "Remembrance and regrets they too are a part of friendship and understanding that has brought you a step closer to understanding humanity" - to Data at the end of Pen Pals Season 2

    * "Let us make sure history never forgets the name ... Enterprise." -Over the comm to the entire crew in the alternate timeline towards the end of "Yesterday's Enterprise."

    * Lily Sloane: Jean Luc! Blow up the damn ship!!

    * Picard: NO! NOOOOOOO!!! *smashes a display case with a rifle in anger*

    * Picard: "They invade our space, and we fall back. They assimilate entire worlds, and we fall back. Not again. The line must be drawn here! This far and no further! And I will make them pay for what they've done!

        * Picard on the Borg in Star Trek: First Contact, when he realised that the only way to destroy the borg was to self-destruct the Enterprise.

    * "You can commit no mistake and still lose. That is not a weakness. That is life." - Jean-Luc Picard comforting Data when he lost a game of chess to a human.
    * "Well I don't give a damn about your past because your past is my future, and as far as I'm concerned it hasn't been written yet." - Picard to a time-travelling conman

What :rolleyes:
 
- La Forge: If we set it to inactive and make it being activated by some sort of movement in the map (like the first mover in de dropship) it will probably work fine.
- Picard: Make it so.


(Oh and... now lets all shut it! You heard the admiral. Dismissed!)




(and for uZi not to go 'v/zAvf-lyAF0o' as well ;) ;) ) :
because of what has been said previously the 2v2 rules should contain a specific value for the server's netwait setting. I might have mixed the names up - but i am talking about the amount of seconds after which the round starts when the server has loaded the map. maybe all the servers have the same value set anyway... dunno.



Engage!

Datel, please tell me you have this available with console showing! Or else I can't confirm it lol, I doubt you would cheat of course but just for the rules sake.
 
Errm I don't wanna be a bitch but in this one (the single-player one) console wasn't required....
anyway I'll provide dem soon :P
 
I know but I did mention when records were getting towards limit then some sort of evidence was required. The record is yours of course but this was 1 of the potential limits!

Nice one though :D
 
Bridge in :42 ... now even 41 seems possible :x
