She’s in love with the concept

pure belfry
#

did you find the softlock

vapid solstice
#

oh what

#

nah spooked to need to go back to 286

#
  • respawn room
pure belfry
#

yeah it's in that room

vapid solstice
#

haven't found any softlocks yet

gaunt nacelle
#

Bridge

mellow hedge
#

I’ve actually never encountered that soft lock in a real game

gaunt nacelle
#

Only in games from temu

junior latch
#

just walk on side of bridge

#

(its an awful spot tho ya)

pure belfry
#

yeah if you hug the left side of bridge on the way in (right side on the way out) you can avoid it but it is indeed just in the middle of the floor at the base of the bridge stairs on the side closer to Z286

#

first softlock I personally encountered in-game

junior latch
#

oh boy...

#

theres so many

#

most of them are just not as stupidly in the open such as that one

#

hide and seek rly showed a ton more aswell

vapid solstice
#

5d2 doesn't seem that bad though, just error alarm kinda while code hunt with respawn room

wicked solstice
#

not the R5D2 one….

gaunt nacelle
junior latch
#

2nd into 3rd code 1 cycle is pretty crazy to go for (tho more realistic is 2 cycle into 4 cycle)

wicked solstice
#

remember when you could just fall out of the map in R8C1

#

wait nvm you still can

#

I forgot

rose nova
#

i managed to fall out of r8b2 last time i did :D i thought i couldnt anymore

wicked solstice
#

Lmfao

#

C1 is funny

pure belfry
wicked solstice
#

Simply because Ovl and Main have the same tile

rose nova
#

also on my first completikn of e2 i just casually fell on the end and i giggled nervously but panicking

wicked solstice
#

But it’s actually two separate copies of essentially the same tile

#

So there were two spots you could fall out of the map in both tiles

#

And they fixed one spot in one tile and the other in the other tile

#

so now each tile has a unique spot you can fall into the void

wicked solstice
#

what tile

#

Reactor i assume

wicked solstice
#

ah

pure belfry
#

In Main

#

The wall is like a meter off where it should be so those two holes in the floor can be fallen through

wicked solstice
#

Lmao that’s so weird

#

Idk why that happens

pure belfry
#

There’s a cell spawn about 5 meters away from this

wicked solstice
#

there was a weird issue with R4B3 on release as well

wicked solstice
#

Or wait

#

I think that’s R4C3

pure belfry
#

That’s R4C3 and I have yet to have that happen to me but I want confirmation before I add it to wiki

wicked solstice
#

they might have fixed it

#

I doubt it tho

pure belfry
#

Yeah idk if its fixed in current version or not

wicked solstice
#

Oh it might be

#

They fixed a cell in a wall in R4 alt

slow bay

#

gameing

runic anvil
#

also congrats on r4c1

#

r4c2 is uh

#

something

#

r4c3 was fun though

#

stev do you know what the word pabulum means

#

because its an accurate level title

hasty bobcat
#

i want to know

runic anvil
#

they knew their level sucked 😭

pastel sky
runic anvil
#

probably my least favorite level in r4

pastel sky
#

Is it lit just

#

Running into

#

Emptiness

#

The whole mission

#

@runic anvil

runic anvil
#

its boring because of how slow it is

pastel sky
pastel sky
#

A casual 3 hour mission

runic anvil
#

my fake duo clear of the level took 2h30m

#

if that tells you anything

pastel sky
#

Alredy go slower than quad

#

So its gon be like a 2 hour bullshit

#

Is it a perma alarm mission tho?

#

Cuz its alr so fat

runic anvil
runic anvil
pastel sky
sullen finch
#

theres an extract alarm

#

like most missions

runic anvil
#

there is i think one singular mom

pastel sky
#

Just like not enemies spawning out of no where in alredy fat mission

runic anvil
pastel sky
#

If its 2 hour mission then its 100% reactor

runic anvil
#

actually let me rephrase the 2 hour mission bit: if you do prisoner efficiency its a 2 hour mission

pastel sky
#

Overload boutta have a XX class scan

runic anvil
sullen finch
sudden pawn
#

overload an secondary be a drag

runic anvil
#

secondary does have your favorite two things in the game stev

sudden pawn
#

and so does overload no?

runic anvil
pastel sky
#

Or the two things that make me wanna end

runic anvil
sudden pawn
#

not 1 not 2 not even 3 or 4 if your lucks bad

pastel sky
#

Wait is this the mission

sudden pawn
#

its a mechanic

pastel sky
#

Where you meet the epic scout

sudden pawn
#

mot a enemy

pastel sky
sudden pawn
#

no

runic anvil
#

do you actually want to know the fun combination of things itll throw at you?

pastel sky
#

Ok dodo said

#

Two of my fav cancer mechanics

#

And its not even both of them

runic anvil
#

4 of your fav

sudden pawn
#

it is a alarm of sorts ill give you a hint

pastel sky
#

Okay

#

Now I remember

#

It always goes back to fucking R2 again

sudden pawn
pastel sky
sudden pawn
#

4 of same

pastel sky
#

4 funny moment alarms oh man

runic anvil
sudden pawn
#

the same being back to back basically

pastel sky
#

So this mission will be jst

#

R2E1

#

if doing PE

#

That sounds right

runic anvil
#

but like

#

less fun

pastel sky
#

R2E1 is a mission we alredy have fucking 0 fun at

sudden pawn
#

it is fun trust

#

same with r5e1

pastel sky
#

My friends cant stfu for once while playing this mission with shadow enemies only

#

Makes stealthing so much more cancer and time consuming on like alredy hour and half least mission

sudden pawn
#

ok well its ENTIRELY up to who your playing with to make it any fun at all especially r5e1 XD

pastel sky
#

My friends I have ton of fun with

#

Except this mission is anti fun

#

Cuz why would you ever be able to like actually kill enemies yk

#

Whne you cannot see a single one

#

And in alarms if you kill one they jst respawn like nothing happened

#

Definitely makes this much more fun

runic anvil
#

surges are pretty exciting

#

shadow zones i agree though

#

they can be a pain in the ass

pastel sky
sudden pawn
#

I really like surges an errors with competent friends that can have fun

pastel sky
#

"time to hold m1 in one direction minigame!"

#

Cuz every enemy is jst same

#

If it was like

sudden pawn
#

like r5e1 errors were super fun for me since my squad was full of vets that im friends with😭

pastel sky
#

Shooter surge it would be like unbeatable but it would be fun dodging it

pastel sky
sudden pawn
#

mother surge when?

sudden pawn
#

pretty sure they all do

pastel sky
#

It spawns a P mother

#

And if you kill her she insta respawns

sudden pawn
#

spawn cap of jus pmoms

pastel sky
#

How big is enemy weight really

sudden pawn
#

spawn cap of purely bbys only

pastel sky
#

Cuz like giants n hybrids are

#

Like same as 2 lickatungs

#

Pmom would prob be 25 idk

sudden pawn
#

in this case they all equal a striker

pastel sky
#

They wouldn't add

#

A boss fight in an alarm really

naive rover
sudden pawn
#

I mean "technically" you can count r4c1 as a boss fight with a alarm

naive rover
#

I would.

#

Then you find out Tanks are very normal enemies 🥲

#

Enter R4E1

sudden pawn
#

ye

sleek pelican
#

ihavenofacebutiwillstillscream
Would

sudden pawn
#

tanks are ez though

#

jus scatter

pastel sky
#

Every epic enemy in this game

#

Isnt technically a boss cuz it appears more

pastel sky
rose nova
#

they are by all means boss enemies

naive rover
#

I mean the majority of the people in here would say it is fine and dandy.

rose nova
#

or are dark soulls not boss enemies cuz they become common ones later on

sudden pawn
naive rover
rose nova
pastel sky
#

Tanks seem so epic

#

And then R4E1 appears

#

And just ruins everything

sudden pawn
#

Pablo is epic

rose nova
#

an error alarm of a boss enemy wDYMM

#

u dont even fight that many ksmdkms

#

its like 3 to 4 in there

pastel sky
#

Yeah its not that epik when you have an annoying guy trying to chase you now for 25th time trying to do R4E1

#

Instead they would fit much more in idk

#

Boss arenas

#

Like R3D1 with P mother which has a cool ass room just to fight her

tropic drift
#

does this mean i have soloed r1c1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BwW11HJ_bzw

trying to do the 3rd or 2nd hardest lvl in the gam

#

ever

sudden pawn
#

is it actually??

pastel sky
#

R4 and R5 are dogshit

runic anvil
#

r5 is bad

pastel sky
sudden pawn
#

r4e1 an r5e1 are the 2 best lvls in the gameinnocentlyswag

#

I rest my case

pastel sky
#

Or hell R2

runic anvil
sudden pawn
#

im being fr no sarcasm unironically xd

#

r5d2 is also really fun

#

really cool mechanically

#

r6cx is also dope

pastel sky
#

R6 is the like really cool looking rundown

#

I still haven't reached R6D1 and cannot wait to get to it

sudden pawn
#

r7c2 also has one of the best ending sequences in the game in my opinion

pastel sky
#

I am like

#

Still clearing R4 and R5

#

They prob get way worse even before KDS deep and downstairs

rose nova
#

r5 r4 e1s were the hardest before r8

topaz spruce
#

русские есть?

sudden pawn
#

the more ya know

rose nova
#

solid

pastel sky
#

As they are the endings of the rundowns

sudden pawn
#

all around they are very cool cinematically an design wise

#

jus ruff

midnight bear
#

ok so, on one hand, I died on the last alarm of r1c2 yet again,

#

on the other hand, ive made it there every time regardless of loadout for my last 5 attempts

pastel sky
sudden pawn
midnight bear
#

so this solo IS happening

pastel sky
#

We cannot even beat

#

R2E1

midnight bear
#

damn why didnt I think of that

pastel sky
#

And we tryna clear other shi

sudden pawn
#

well r2e1 is like one of the hardest ones if your team isn't locked

#

very heavy team cooperation

midnight bear
#

im still stuck on r2e1 too so big mood, extract kills us every time lol

rose nova
midnight bear
#

its so brutal. you guys got this

rose nova
#

gamer

pastel sky
#

So we don't have to

#

Ever retry these fucking scitzo missions if we evne beat without all people

#

And the best way to learn is having everybody in

#

Especially dealing with surges is insanely tough without buffed bio

sudden pawn
#

r2e1 is the real skill check of you as a team not a individual

pastel sky
#

I like that design and also hate it at the same time

#

Cuz of course 4 of us when we combine all our IQ we are so geeked out we get beaten by a guy playing solo

sudden pawn
#

jus gotta lock in twin🥀💔

rose nova
#

but the solo guy has 4k hours 🔥

#

plus like 100 on e1 and probs more

pastel sky
sudden pawn
#

never asked

#

wait im slow xd

#

but still I am curious regardless

pastel sky
#

I love how

#

One of the hardest missions appear

#

At the start of the game

sudden pawn
#

ye i never really understood that but beats me🤷‍♂️

pastel sky
#

Its like

#

Congrats on beating

#

2 hour reactor

hasty bobcat
#

(one)

pastel sky
#

Have fun doing this other bullshit mission

pastel sky
#

I lit jst said it

#

Holy sleeper agent

hasty bobcat
#

im in ur walls

pastel sky
hasty bobcat
#

i don't think that's true

#

unless u loot reactor for 40 minutes

junior latch
#

R2E1 isnt at the start of the game in the normal sense anyway

#

R2D2 shouldnt rly go above 80 minutes ye @hasty bobcat

#

like that would need you to repeat waves or be afk before start to even get close to 2 hours

hasty bobcat
#

ye

pastel sky
#

Like the 1st time clear we were PLEADING for our lives

hasty bobcat
#

that means you started reactor after 40 minutes

pastel sky
#

Like edging all of the timer

hasty bobcat
#

which is basically afk

pastel sky
sudden pawn
#

I don't remember exactly how long it is

junior latch
#

but you can get below an hour if you push a bit

#

level is long

tropic drift
#

what level do i go for after soloing r1c1

"During GTFO's time in Early Access, Rundowns were released sequentially and only available to players for a set period of time. The release of a new Rundown would replace the existing Rundown, and previous content would be inaccessible. The earliest test Rundowns were very small and were retired after a couple of weeks, whereas later Rundowns were maintained for several months.

In October 2022, GTFO introduced the Rundown selection menu and progressively reintroduced the six retired Rundowns as ALT Rundowns (those with the ALT:// designation.) For instance, ALT://Rundown 1.0 is an updated and re-released version of now-unavailable Rundown 001. GTFO's final campaign consists of the six ALT Rundowns, Rundown 7.0, and Rundown 8.0."

sudden pawn
#

ah I c I c

#

if only I got the game when I played during its free weekend back in like 2020

#

ggs

rose nova
#

thats why each rundown just sort of exists on their own lil world, with a contained difficulty and quirk

#

:3

sudden pawn
rose nova
#

ksmdkm

tropic drift
#

is it easier than c2?

rose nova
#

uh depends
if u know ur stealth well,probs

#

it is solo solo or bots

tropic drift
#

solo solo

rose nova
#

eva help idk solo

junior latch
sudden pawn
#

xd

rose nova
#

qwq i only know bots and normal

#

cant do solo

junior latch
sudden pawn

alr

sudden pawn
#

I was still a fps head so didn't like gtfo when I tried it now I love it XD

rose nova
#

u heard him humpster go an e1

#

🔥

tropic drift
#

😭

rose nova
#

:D

tropic drift
#

havent even unlocked any e missions my group is too slow

rose nova
#

ok but fr i guess d1 is harder than c2 at points cuz the alarms are a bit bigger but also arent chargers

#

so idk how good ur at combat

tropic drift
#

hmm

rose nova
#

but if ur good on steallth u got 40% of it

#

done

#

andthe ending i believe isnt too bad?

tropic drift
#

does being good at stealth include stealthing giants

rose nova
#

bits but u can also just shoot them at the end

tropic drift
#

oh cool

rose nova
#

the important rooms onlyhave from 2 to 4

#

and the rest u dont haveto wake up

#

its res rooms

tropic drift
#

ok yeah that doesnt sound too bad

junior latch
#

actually being good at stealth? Yes

tropic drift
#

the alarms im pretty scared of though

junior latch
#

Soloing giants isnt super mandatory but if you are good at it its included

#

More necessary is the skill to duo giants reliably

rose nova
#

well but this is a solo

tropic drift
#

alr yeah

rose nova
rose nova
tropic drift
#

class 5 alarm...

rose nova
#

x2 :D

tropic drift
#

oh my god

#

i'll give it a shot and see how it goes

lost lynx
rose nova
#

good luck !

steep blaze
# rose nova ok but fr i guess d1 is harder than c2 at points cuz the alarms are a bit ...

the class 4 apex alarm in R1C2 is pretty highkey the hardest single alarm in the rundown without any context or anything else influencing difficulty
R1D1's can be a bit harder in the context of the resource pressure of not wanting to open the side zones in 69 and 70 to have the class 5's be more streamlined, and they can very rarely spawn hybrids (or at least one of them can)

rose nova
#

just cuz r1d1s have onee way spawns

steep blaze
#

yeah, the class 4 is both chargers and forced 2 way spawns

#

that class 4 killed me and my fresh team about 3 or 4 times when we were just starting before we got the clear

#

(R1C1 killed us more because most of us are/were skill issue at FPS)

rose nova
#

it beat my ass like 15 times :D bot runs pain

steep blaze
#

yeah bots are hell

#

its a very real phenomenon wherethe game feels just, unbearably hard at times and leaves you wondering how you'll beat future levels if they only get harder

#

and then you come back to a level 1-2 months later after progressing more and its just like "how did i ever struggle at this wtf"

#

knowledge and skill progression is so insanely evident over time

rose nova
#

this games just very
its the thing where u either know a fuck ton and u can win with thatbeing bad at the fps, or be goated at fps and win without knowing anything

#

and so it kinda, balances u out

steep blaze
#

i do think both have a hard limit on how much they can help you

#

being good at both is really important

#

i still havent beaten a level duo with bots because i just need to work on my aim more

#

i have full knowledge of the level, ive played it over a dozen times but i just cant make it to the end cuz i suck

rose nova
#

what levels have u tried? cuz tbh i did 3 bots for a while being terrible at shooting

#

but good weapon choices and good tools plus good stealth tbh kinda carry

steep blaze
#

im all the way like 80-90% through the game, only have the hardest levels left

#

the levels i practiced on solo w/ bots were ones where i could practice on my game sense and strats

#

R2B1 has a really good alarm, R2B3 has a series of alarms and stealth that help to refine the basics

#

and then some harder later levels like R6D2 Main to try and push what i can and cant do with bots to put practice to the real test

rose nova
#

ok so ur probs better than me KDMSKD

steep blaze
#

i likely am, but i dont dare to forget where i came from

rose nova
#

california :O

steep blaze
#

i still remember what its like back then

#

when me and 3 other real people were getting hard walled by R1B2's extraction error because we just sucked ass

rose nova
#

iii
idk i did like r1 r2 r3 r4 r5s A B and sometirms C and D tiers bots

#

so its

#

hard to remember KMKDNSKD

steep blaze
#

thats a good start yeah

rose nova
#

i was very not touching lfg until i had like mostly C or D tiers

steep blaze
#

R5's b tiers are really hard with bots

rose nova
#

and now only got one e1 aaa

steep blaze
#

ive only beaten 2 e tiers

#

R2E1 and R4E1 Main

#

i prolly could have more if i had regulars to play with

#

but im still happy with the ones i have cleared

#

none of the E tiers are easy

#

even with 4 people that are willing to try and learn and throw themselves at a level for 20+ attempts

rose nova
steep blaze
#

a more mild skill group i was with netted me my R2E1 clear and it legit took us over 25 attempts

#

i mean

#

yeah but i dont count that one

rose nova
#

ksksks
yeah i just kinda gotten lucky going for lfgs on my e tiers

steep blaze
#

plus secondary makes R8E1 actually moderately challenging

rose nova
#

i probs wouldve have gtfo 100% 6 months agk if i didnt play... jank

rose nova
#

not like it changes a lot

#

a flyer wave and 2 3 snatchers

steep blaze
#

it doesnt, its just harder enemies and more enemies

#

but on a resource starved early half of the level, it adds up

#

also giant chargers

rose nova
#

3 foams strategy

steep blaze
#

my team runs 1 mine 2 sentry 1 bio

#

actually no its 1 of each

#

prolly could do foam strats but i dont like foam strats

rose nova
#

foam just makes it too simple :b
foam lot of doors gives u quite the time to loot

#

and at the end floor foam

#

:3

steep blaze
#

yeah that sounds about right

rose nova
#

im only against ladder foam cuz... exploit

#

obvs

steep blaze
#

its at least an exploit that takes resources to do

#

unlike other exploits like silent shooting

runic anvil
#

eeh

rose nova
runic anvil
#

ladderfoam still yucky

steep blaze
#

it def doesnt make it better

#

its pretty gross yeah

#

i just think silent shots are even more disgusting lol

rose nova
#

i sometiles do it on accident ngl

steep blaze
#

accident is fine, especially if you shoot again immediately afterwards

#

its not too uncommon to accidentally silent shot from time to time if ping is shaky iirc

hasty bobcat
steep blaze
#

oh, yeah im dumb

lmao

the worst part is that internally, its not far off of a pistol lol
-its grouped alongside the other pistols instead of other shotguns in the archetype datablock
-it does use pistol equip animations
-the model used seems to be scaled off of pistol proportions ingame

it does have shotgun reload animations, and it is a shotgun in terms of how the weapon functions, it does count as a shotgun for close quarters, but its funnily like almost as much pistol as it is shotgun internally

near stag
rose mason
steep blaze
#

and below the sawed off is the bullpups

#

in-game its ordered to be next to the shotguns correctly

#

but in the json, it is with the pistols

rose mason
steep blaze
#

for comparison of where the sawed off is listed, comparatively:

#

sawed off is the gray tick at the bottom, the shotguns are the same as shown in the hel shotgun example

steep blaze
#

the model being as small as a pistol's ingame is very interesting, but it may just be a result of making the weapon 1-handed

#

it being lumped alongside the pistols in the archetype data is very funny though

rose mason
steep blaze
near stag
#

In the Datablock for the Alarms everything is also very unorganised

steep blaze
#

im not certain its spaghetti, all of the weapons are pretty neatly categorized, rifles, smg, shotgun, pistols, machineguns

#

theres spaghetti with in it all though

near stag
#

Yeah a remnant of a 10 man Team expanding to a bigger crew

steep blaze
#

primary weapons are IDed as 108, secondaries are 109, special shotguns are 110, and main shotguns are 156 for some fucking reason

#

the devs were very disorganized

#

but in terms of organizing the weapons into respective archetypes, its generally very organized

#

so the sawed-off being next to the pistols feels less like a mistake than other things

#

rifles are lumped with other rifles, smgs with smgs (though what counts as an SMG is fucked up), etc

#

both the carbine and short rifle are internally called SMG_Burst and SMG_Semi, respectively

#

why they did this instead of making them rifles is beyond me, given that they extended the slots available for other weapon archetypes just fine, like shotguns and revolvers

wicked solstice
steep blaze
#

i will agree with this

#

because it is funny

wicked solstice
#

Exactly

steep blaze
#

speaking of:

#

the revo is noticably bigger than the sawed off

#

its so funny

#

in first person, the model for the sawed looks pretty appropriately sized

#

but you look at it from an outside point of view and its not really much bigger than the machine pistol

#

Pistol = weapons which is usually used with one hand

mellow hedge
#

SHUT UP

wicked solstice
#

no wait they have a point

steep blaze
#

i am onboard with this logic

rose nova
#

"used with one hand"
gtfo: twohands pistol

lost lynx
#

"A pistol is a type of short firearm that is designed to be held and fired with one hand and features a barrel with an integral firing chamber. The term "pistol" can refer broadly to any handgun, but it technically describes a firearm with a chamber built directly into the barrel, distinguishing it from other handguns like revolvers. "

wicked solstice

probably

graceful geode
#

Keep also in mind that they changed stuff around in previous rundowns

#

For example, Heavy Assault Rifle was a completely different weapon (Main slot and AR with some extra range I think)

#

It only got reworked into being a Special at OG R6 I think

steep blaze
#

It also used to have a smaller magazine, 25 I think if it was unchanged

#

Because fun fact, there’s 2 heavy auto rifles in there

#

One of them is the HAR we have today

#

The other is a main weapon, same damage, but 25 mag

mellow hedge
#

fortnite smg

steep blaze
#

So instead of swapping the HAR to special

#

Which would’ve taken like

#

2-3 minutes

#

They just made a new HAR by copy-pasting everything, and slightly rebalanced it

mellow hedge
#

all that work and the weapon is still ass 😔

steep blaze
#

I don’t think it’s ass but it is pretty underwhelming in terms of ammo and how hard it kicks
That’s a very personal opinion tho

mellow hedge
#

Yeah I mean compared to other specials, it is quite bad

split marlin
#

so many cut content for gtfo

#

😔

mellow hedge
#

Its down there with arbalest

graceful geode
#

The problem I have with it is that the recoil is SO shitty you kinda want to single tap and at that point it feels like a 30-mag pistol

mellow hedge
#

yeah

graceful geode
#

I'd love for it to be good because it FEELS good

mellow hedge
#

the recoil used to be goated

steep blaze
#

I think the HAR is like 2x better than the arbalist

graceful geode
#

The whole feeling of HAR is enjoyable

steep blaze
#

Its so much more immediate

#

And it’s fire rate doesn’t suck ass

wicked solstice
#

man and HAR recoil used to be even worse

mellow hedge
#

HAR isnt horrible

wicked solstice
#

like altR2-R5

#

No i love har

#

I just think they fucked the recoil

mellow hedge
#

like, arbalist, choke and short rifle etc are all worse

wicked solstice
#

nah not muh boy choke

mellow hedge
#

choke is just so outclassed

wicked solstice
#

but it fun

mellow hedge
#

choke could be so fun

wicked solstice
#

it is fun

mellow hedge
#

yeaeh its fun

steep blaze
#

Choke is pretty solid burst damage but that reload is fuckingn painful, and it’s a little low on ammo

mellow hedge
#

but like

#

when you have much better options

wicked solstice
#

it used to be even lower lmao

mellow hedge
#

whenever i play it im like "man i could just have hel rifle"

wicked solstice
#

Remember when ALTR6 had such good balance patches

#

and then R8 came in and went “naaahhh”

mellow hedge
#

i have been using it in my r5a1 speeds lol

#

kinda nice for solo

graceful geode
#

The problem is always the same: the game has a limited amount of problems and some solutions are just overwhelming. Scattergun gives you all the Burst damage you need and thus most of the weapons are underwhelming in comparison.

wicked solstice
#

yeah

steep blaze
#

Yeah

mellow hedge
#

Like choke used to be one of the best weapons in the ggame

#

and then other weapons got added lol

#

same with HAR

wicked solstice
#

still like what i did with my arby where i slowed it down and gave it really heavy damage per shot

steep blaze
#

Honestly, this might be a hot take

#

HAR > Veruta

wicked solstice
#

yeah that’s pretty fuckin hot

#

ngl

split marlin
mellow hedge
#

they are similar

#

like

wicked solstice
#

i love em both but i gotta say i think Veruta is pretty much better

split marlin
#

even nightmare are just combination of old gimmicks

wicked solstice
#

at this point

#

I miss 5 burst BC

graceful geode
wicked solstice
#

sigh

mellow hedge
#

look at r8c2

#

they enemy variety in some parts is great

wicked solstice
#

C2 is fun

graceful geode
#

Rundown 2 has only 2 maps with shadows, R2C1 and R2E1

wicked solstice
#

yeah i like enemy mixed variety

split marlin
#

yeah for some reasons they really do not want to mix enemy types

wicked solstice
mellow hedge
#

r7d2 goes hard with the enemy variety

wicked solstice
#

YES

#

and yknow why?

#

Because they spawn like 10 overlapping alarms

#

Btw that level is supposed to spawn chickens

#

but it doesn’t

mellow hedge
#

i've seen them

steep blaze
mellow hedge
#

its just rare

junior latch
mellow hedge
#

also funny that r7d2 has some of the most fucked level gen

wicked solstice
steep blaze
#

There’s TANKS coded into some of the R5 alarms

wicked solstice
#

yeah

mellow hedge
wicked solstice
#

As long as they use the right wave select

#

It’s fine

junior latch
#

hence I dont think choke is worse than HAR

wicked solstice
#

Also the Boss role is bugged and cannot spawn because of heat bug

mellow hedge
#

yeah i mean just preference

steep blaze
#

Yeah choke is better than HAR

junior latch
#

choke actually does things, sliiiiiightly subpar. And it actually does a good bunch of things

mellow hedge
#

wait eva have you seen curbis fucking sweeping the solo speed boards with HAR

#

kinda sick

junior latch
#

HAR is purely waveclear aimed but is struck with a nasty recoil for no reason

#

yea I dont think HAR is that awful either

#

arbalist is easily the worst "general" weapon

#

with sniper being the worst specialist

steep blaze
#

I think HAR does have really good ammo efficiency which does matter in more casual settings, but when playing fast, not super relevant

junior latch
#

short rifle is also down there for 99% of play

junior latch
mellow hedge
#

short rifle can kill a charger scout so best weapon

steep blaze
#

The 5 damage breakpoint is really good tho

junior latch
#

yes
if you give HAR its og r6 recoil and reload back
then buff its ammo a bit

#

then youd have a balanced weapon

#

but alas

mellow hedge
#

i might start pubbing and using a bunch of different weapons

#

and then make my oown ranking

steep blaze
#

I moreso went with ammo and recoil, I don’t think it’s reload speed is a problem, it’s still faster than the other auto weapons in special

junior latch
#

its reload speed isnt garbage nor is it good

#

but it was a bit better

mellow hedge
#

wait @junior latch have we done a speedrun tier list?

junior latch
#

I have done one for any% and 100%

steep blaze
#

I don’t think so

runic anvil

Ah

mellow hedge
junior latch

on my discord...

mellow hedge

was i there?

lost lynx
junior latch

no

#

I did one

mellow hedge

hmm

steep blaze
#

So it just wasn’t uploaded to YT, cause I did enjoy watching those other tier lists

mellow hedge
#

where is urs

#

like

junior latch
#

in my discord...

mellow hedge
#

what channel

#

still waiting for next ep of sleeper podcast

junior latch
#

the channel called "gtfo chat and media"

#

well the next one planned was the checkpoint tierlist @wraith stratus

#

speedrun tierlist feels too niche for that imo

#

since its based on how well the speedruns play in enjoyment terms

#

ive posted those here aswell before lol

wraith stratus
#

Oh RIGHT

junior latch
#

you deserve it wishybonked

wraith stratus
#

I FORGOT ABOUT THAT PROJECT

#

I knew something was missing

junior latch
#

anyhow, regarding weapon tierlists theres always the "what is supposed to be the balanced point"

steep blaze
junior latch
#

for me thats burst rifle for mains
and shotgun for specials

steep blaze
#

Yeah

#

Though I did want to see the shotgun have a touch more ammo

#

R8 got it almost right

mellow hedge
#

they buffed it in r8 lol

runic anvil
steep blaze
#

Yeah they did

junior latch
#

shotguns ammo econ is fine, even moreso after the buff

mellow hedge
#

hel gun ammo buff go crazy

junior latch
#

8,18 was what it had before
with the potential to get 2 kills in a shot

steep blaze
#

That hel gun buff was fucking insane

junior latch
#

10 is absolutely solid refill for kills

shotguns "issue" if any is that it isnt regularly efficient into chargers

#

hel gun buff was -> 🤡

mellow hedge
#

hel gun buff into sniper nerf

#

crazy junk

junior latch
#

eh I guess we might do a speedrun tierlist after my thesis if you want to frosty

mellow hedge
#

shore

wicked solstice
#

Scatter buff 💀

junior latch
#

i dont think it would be hard to find the people who speedrun for that

mellow hedge
#

i still have around 10 levels i need to speed

#

like uhhh

junior latch
#

for a serious run I still need R7E1 and R8E2

#

ive got one "huh lets check this out" for R8E2

mellow hedge
#

i havent ran r2b2, r2b4, r2d1, r3b1, r4b2, r5a2, r5b1, r5b2, r7b1, r7c1, r7d1, r8d1

#

all full man and seriously

junior latch
#

I do think we could actually push for sub 16

#

which is crazy btw

#

like if we get 30 seconds of enough levels

#

and a few 1-2 minute ones from R5C1/D1 and such

mellow hedge
#

we need to run r7b1 btw

junior latch
#

then we could actually hit that

steep blaze
#

R2B4 is probably one of the most boring levels in GTFO casually, and I imagine speedrunning it doesn’t help much

mellow hedge
#

after we finish with r7e1

junior latch
#

R2B4 speedrun is solid

steep blaze
#

That’s surprising

#

Is it the alarms?

mellow hedge
#

r5d1 without foresight might be one of the worst levels

#

to speed

#

same with r5c1

junior latch
#

you only rly roll a 50/50 to check the run
probably 1/10 runs has best turbine spawn, then you gamba for some scans

steep blaze
#

Oh yeah I’m not saying worst, just boring, like not offensively bad but just no fun to play

junior latch
#

but if you just wanna run a fast R2B4 you can actually run both zones. Have some decent strats around where to drop turbine for 2nd and 3rd alarm

#

plus its fast

#

rng and being forced to play slow for bad reasons are typically issues

#

or autoscrollers

steep blaze
#

Yeah

mellow hedge
#

r8c2 ALMOST does that

#

but the slow stealth is fun

steep blaze
#

Warden protocol moment

junior latch
#

here this is what I did a few months ago or smth

#

R5C3 id say is probably basic maybe decent
R7C2 is good
R7E1 is good

steep blaze
#

I fucking love R6D2 man

mellow hedge
#

r6d2 speed is so fun

junior latch
#

(i didnt add them at the time has I hadnt ran them at all)

#

R6D2 speed ChefsKiss

steep blaze
#

R6D2 is one of my favorite levels in the game even casually

junior latch
#

only bad part is the cluster foaming (but thats still ok)

mellow hedge
#

i actually get to do something there lol

steep blaze

It’s a great testing ground for weapons, it has so many routes you can play

all of them are in the GTFO tier

how long is a normal speedrun

uuuuh whats the average of all again

@pseudo sedge prob has it somewhere

bro

i want a magenta name too

give me

From what I’ve seen the avg looks about 7m?

gotta speedrun

#

also soy has to actually do comps

junior latch
mellow hedge

(literally can give the responsibility to someone else)

pseudo sedge

any% average is 11:58

steep blaze
#

Oh wow

junior latch

autosrollers be like

Oh yeah warden protocols dragging up the average lol

junior latch

runs ranged from 2:36 to 41:xx in glitchless any%

pseudo sedge

r8e2 also casually being the longest speedrun

#

but also very fun

i thought it would be 20-30 mins

#

or something

junior latch

They play so fast it’s actually crazy

youll see why
we dont even use glitches for these times

tgb just start rolling rn

last time at least like 25k resets and nothing

yea sure

steep blaze
#

TFW key and God hsu spot secured and then the class 4 rng hits

junior latch
#

ya

#

you know

#

the best seed is (one non perfect execution)

#

only 10 seconds faster than current wr

pseudo sedge
#

fun fact: i datamined ALL the seeds that have A key and B close HSU

#

32 seeds

steep blaze
#

Fantastic

pseudo sedge
#

literally second last was the only one with no hack and good scans

junior latch
#

getting a 2:35 or better is basically just rolling for insane scans on top of a top 3 (non A-key) key and best hsu

graceful geode
#

insane scans made me think of scan lines being ink blots

junior latch
#

meanwhile the champion medal is placed at a more approachable 3 minutes

steep blaze
#

If every scan rng resulted in ink blots patterns I don’t think I could survive the R3B2 class V at the start

#

That alarm is already hell even with average rng

junior latch
#

place 2 burst sentries

#

and vibe

steep blaze
#

Now that I think about it yeah why didn’t my team just take 2 sentries to that

junior latch
#

mines, 2 sentries and bio

steep blaze
#

Foam isn’t good on that level anyways

junior latch
#

works everytime

steep blaze
#

Yep

graceful geode
#

The joke was something like insane--->madness--->rorschach blot--->ink blots

steep blaze
#

Ahhh

#

Me = dense

mellow hedge
#

yeah i have no idea what that is

graceful geode
#

No it's my sense of humor that is weird, dont worry

junior latch
#

now the big question (for those that dont know)
how would your order (in terms of time, from shortest to longest) the rundowns for their any% runs (all times added together)

#

so if you say R8 is shorter than R1 it would be
R8<R1

steep blaze
#

Hmm

#

If I had to guess

hasty bobcat
#

r6 has to be the longest right

placid field
#

"we GF, then we FO.. we are GTFO!!!"

steep blaze
#

R6>R4>R5>R8>R2>R7>R1>R3

#

Is my guess

graceful geode
junior latch
#

by level count its R6/R5>R8/R4>R7/R2>R3>R1 btw (for context from most to least)

steep blaze
#

I assume glitchless

graceful geode
#

To give a better idea

junior latch
#

glitched isnt even fully done ck1_Nod

junior latch
junior latch
#

actually let me reformat that

steep blaze
#

Lol

junior latch
#

The answer (for when you guessed)
||R1||<||R3||<||R2||<||R4||<||R7||<||R5||<||R6||<||R8|| from shortest to longest

junior latch
#

R8/R5

placid field
#

@placid fieldhai

#

hello

placid field
steep blaze
placid field
placid field
#

wait @near stag are you unbanned

junior latch
near stag
steep blaze
#

I would’ve figured ||R3|| would be shorter due to similar amount of leveled but generally shorter

placid field
steep blaze
#

And that rundowns reactor isn’t as long as the shortest

junior latch
steep blaze
#

Weird

junior latch
#

its own reactor is also only like 5 minutes faster

steep blaze
#

But good to know

junior latch
#

and the shortest has 2 of the fastest levels in the game

steep blaze
#

I guess A1 and D1 is a big difference maker between them

junior latch
#

its moreso the average overall

steep blaze
#

Ahh alright

junior latch
#

R3A2 is roughly R1B1 (R1B1 is faster by a bit)
R1A1 is massively short
R1B2, C2 and D1 reflect R3A1, B1 and B2/C1 (but theres 1 more level here)
R3A3 is shorter than R1C1 by about a bit less than R3A1

junior latch
mellow hedge
#

r8 is only like 4 mins longer than r6 i think

hasty bobcat
#

should optimise more !

junior latch
#

its not much anymore ya

mellow hedge
#

Idk what the theo best is tho

steep blaze
#

R8E2 really inflated the time by quite a bit more than I thought

junior latch
#

but tbf R6 can also be optimized a bit more

mellow hedge
#

r6cx only had one run done lol

steep blaze
#

Oh lol

#

But that’s the one with the parkour to scale the tower faster and hit the trigger at the end early right?

junior latch
#

R6CX and D4 each have good time to gain

mellow hedge
#

we should rerun r6d4

junior latch
#

R8 has B1, B4, C2, D1 and E2

mellow hedge
#

we have foresight and its a good af speed

#

one of my fav ngl

junior latch

just dont do the thesis 5head

If spitterbug didn’t exist and if loading different dimensions wasn’t so brutal on memory stuff I’d like R6D4 more

junior latch

how about you do it

steep blaze

I crashed right before the surge(-like) error on what would’ve been my first clear of D4

we never encountered that lmao

go fast and the game doesnt have a chance trollface
