ah

#

machine gun and carbine

tardy ingot
#

ah yea thats gotten some teams when going at it for the first time

#

running out of ammo on extract or overrun?

wooden current
#

mostly overrun

#

we burn ammo on the 5 final scans and then get swamped by enemies

safe cradle
#

res zone?

tardy ingot
#

you should have 2 sentries that you can place down
that plus everyone shooting (sometimes people legit dont) should do well

theres also that you might want to kill the last wave of the gen cluster depending on where it spawned (especially since it can have some hybrids)

wooden current
#

ah isee

#

weve been running 3 turrets and bioscan

#

should we switch one of the turrets

safe cradle
#

You made me want to do R2D1 again

#

Thanks

they are also generally helpful when pulling a room (they just dont need any tool refill)

wooden current
tardy ingot
#

also I hope its 3 burst sentries at least..

safe cradle
wooden current
#

it is dont worry lol

#

we learned our lesson with the other sentry types

safe cradle
#

For zone order, I'd suggest doing whichever has cell between 611 and 613 first

#

then open both blood doors and ping cells

wooden current
#

makes sense

safe cradle
#

res zone gives 1 cell back

tardy ingot
#

alarm -> blood door x2 -> key zone north

get the resources from res zone (generator needs cell but it gives one back) whenever necessary

safe cradle
#

so do it whenever you want, and do key zone as soon as you get key

#

every cell, fog goes down

soft crater
safe cradle
#

which helps a lot with the blood door on left (612 I think)

#

hel auto at least has some usecases

#

its shotgun that makes me go urgh

#

like it CAN do something
sometimes...

but most of the time its just missing

wooden current
#

shotgun sentries are what made me learn to use burst sentries

little pilot
wooden current
#

this MIGHT be ideal

#

(i appreciate the advice btw i wrote it down and will be attempting again tonight)

tardy ingot
#

and well
depending on what kinda weapons your teammates have it can be harder/easier

#

machine guns arent too great, but as long as its just smalls they are ok

burnt inlet
#

Don’t forget to go into the zone that req a cell, didn’t see anyone specifically mentioning it, it’s free resources essentially

#

Im late to the party lol

#

Anyways I hate that map so much😭🙏

tardy ingot
#

I gotta go back to speedrun it again in the future

yo i just got into the game and i love it. With that said I've just found out solo matchmaking on this game is infuriating at times lmao Any 3 gamers down to help me on a rundown mission or 2?

unironically kind of

#

matchmaking

#

there is like 8 ppl left who use it and all of them go fast

#

each one of them is different region than the other so uh prob dont do that

#

man

#

i would love to join that r2d2

#

but im playing mtg in 40 min

past mesa
#

Pubs with the explicit purpose of going fast

#

R2b1 we go fast

#

That then know the route

#

and kinda hard comm until you play with 2-3 people

#

you can also just find someone else and start doing duo speeds

#

Ask them?

#

Or pub snipe them

#

Turn on notifications and social engineer your way into their friend group

past elm
#

heyo is anyone familiar with the logs?

#

currently looking for the log the wiki says is in the secondary objective in r5b2

grizzled patrol
noble sierra
#

There are 2 logs in R5b2 secondary, 315 and 317

#

Which is actually in overload, mb. The secondary log is in 158

#

Iirc that's the door you need a color key for, so if the uplink terminal is in the cell zone, you need to do an extra alarm.

hard nexus
#

???

#

they are both key doors without alarm

noble sierra
#

Oh, probably mixed my memory to other levels

tardy ingot
#

The tutorial is a decent way to get a feel for minmaxing your time (aim for a sub 4:10)

as jish said, finding someone and doing duo speedruns of easier levels can be done easily too

Overall, ask around. Theres currently quite a few people who are new to speedrunning trying it out.

frail heart
#

Also join the speedrunning discord

#

I’m sure I could rope Tgb in to do some easier speeds if you wanted to

burnt tree
#

Is the first mission bugged??? Or am I forced to play this game w people??? I need help

burnt tree
# tardy ingot Wdym bugged?

I’ve replayed this mission 3 times now an I keep getting stuck at the part where you need to ping, I’ve pinged at their terminal but no matter how many times I do that an run around I cannot seem to locate the scanner your supposed to enter??

burnt tree
#

Correct

tardy ingot
#

The HSU you are looking for is a human sized pod

meager mortar
#

you have to interact with it for the team scan to pop up

tardy ingot
#

I assume that if they found it they wouldve seen that

burnt tree
#

My problem is I can’t find it.. an the ping won’t ping

burnt inlet
#

Should send a pic of it in media tbh

burnt inlet
burnt tree
#

Yes it says go to 52 E

tardy ingot
#

Regarding terminals:
you dont want to stay inside the screen during the ping as it only shows up on your HUD for a short bit (terminal still pings if you are staying next to it)

burnt tree
#

I’ve been running around here for hours

#

Gotchya

tardy ingot
#

You gotta rly look at things

#

I assure you that you ran past it multiple times (if you actually went into E)

burnt inlet
#

It’s gonna be larger than you expect

burnt tree
#

Even so I load the command exit the screen pop my tab open a nothing pops up??

tardy ingot
#

regarding your earlier question

Gtfo kinda wants you to play with at least 1 other real person

tardy ingot
#

Hud

#

look around

#

It will make a noise and give a marker/ping for a bit

burnt inlet
#

Enter it into terminal, stand close to terminal and look around

#

You can even add -T to the end if you can’t find it

tardy ingot
tardy ingot
#

It makes the ping vanish quicker

burnt inlet
#

Oh

tardy ingot
#

And you cant q tech

burnt inlet
#

As in I’m not a fan of it either cuz q tech but for newbies could be good

tardy ingot
#

Its only good if the pinger

  • needs to go afk
  • has arthritis
#

Otherwise just repeat ping with arrow up enter

burnt inlet
#

Yea

burnt tree
#

Okay ima try this again thanks for the support 🫡

burnt inlet
#

But also could just stand next to term if alone and look around, no need to actually go in and out

tardy ingot
#

does -T even work with you standing next to it?

my bad original gangsta didn't mean to step in your territory

#

Kind of a high level question: In the most recent speedrun competition, I was able to see ChillDude utilize enemy animation culling to look away from a tank and avoid punches while at critical amounts of health and be able to kill it. I'm trying to understand this system; to what extent is this used elsewhere at high level play, what extent is it known, and how does one consistently manipulate the culling mechanic to one's advantage to be more successful?

#

From what I know already: it's quickly flicking the camera, possibly a minimum distance is needed, and you have to be host

frail heart
#

Host culling happens when host looks away from enemies or is a certain distance away (like 75m). This makes it so enemy hitboxes wont move for attacking animations.

fathom ice
#

this has to be chatgpt

frail heart
#

Its very useful for BBCs and tanks

fathom ice

although i like how 'look away' is actual callout

incredibly silly tactic, thank you for the explanation

👋 I am a noob who's owned GTFO for a few years. Never had anyone to play with until now, and didn't feel like playing with randoms. So! What are some basics to keep in mind as I figure out how to play?

inner inlet
#

Have you playeds skyrim? You know stealth archer? That but with knife.🎣

ocean spindle
#

and also get really really comfy with terminals

craggy pier
#

eh, I'm comfy-ish with terminals irl 😂 no programmer but I can use em

#

going to have to look up a bunch of commands or keep a manual next to me though

ocean spindle
#

nah if u write "commands" on a terminal

digital mural
#

Terminals are not complicated

ocean spindle
#

it'll tel u the ones it has

#

and u don't need all of em every time

craggy pier
#

oh alright easy

#

though I needed a whole bunch of stuff

digital mural
#

Nope

craggy pier
#

It's not like trying to learn BASH, right? 🤣

ocean spindle

ksks nah
it looks scary but it is video game type of stuff still

GearPartCustomization

what does this mod do ?

digital mural
#

You customize your gun

#

Also

prime musk
#

can hel gun kill cscouts as host

#

(as in, 2 shots to back)

minor fractal
#

I think it's RNG tho

#

.3 vs. .25-.5

#

20% chance to fail

#

Assuming perfect inputs

prime musk

alr ty

meager mortar
#

i thought they'd decreased hel gun fire delay to .2

meager mortar
prime musk
#

am i losing it or are there just
more charger scouts than other scouts in e2

errant dome
#

i think zoomer is the most common, then charger is the 2nd most common

meager mortar
#

pretty sure hel gun kills zoomers to head, too

#

the enemy. not. uh. the generation

native sun
meager mortar
#

ack, tragic

meager mortar
errant dome
#

you are much more likely to encounter the charger scouts vs the zoomer scouts tho (you have to pass respawn room with zone that only has c-scouts) which is why it feels like there is more of those

prime musk
#

wait bypass zone is 6 scouts that's kinda crazy

errant dome
#

you skip most rooms usually so u dont see most of em

prime musk
#

yeah it makes sense

#

and bosses are
mom/both/tank/2mom

errant dome
#

yup

uneven kiln
#

Can anyone tell me more about this remark from yesterday's conversation

tardy ingot
#

we just had less boss killing weapons

#

no scattergun or burst cannon which shit on bosses

#

2 choke mods fighting tank (or 2 shotguns) is a lot more skill based than scattergun nuking it

civic wave
#

shotgun vs tank is fun

ocean spindle
#

r7d2 loadout: machinegun, chokemod, highcal and blank

civic wave
#

choke mod is boring ranged weapon

#

man up

#

pump it up

#

s870

ocean spindle
civic wave
#

XDist2 is a cowards weapon

digital mural
#

Wait

#

Normal shotgun vs Tank is not viable?

#

Man

uneven kiln
#

I do know the S870 has a beter precision multiplier

#

but it had less ammo at the time

civic wave
digital mural
#

You said "man it up" with the S870 and it gave me the impression shotgun is not initially good against Tanks

civic wave
#

you need to play aggro with it = man up

#

not a tank killing weapon for a coward

digital mural
#

Ooooh

#

Yeah that makes sense

uneven kiln
#

This actually makes me ask: what about Precision Rifle against Tanks back in OG R7

#

that was introduced there

digital mural
#

I know PR was OP for mothers

tardy ingot
#

PR was not op vs mothers
it was a decent choice next to shotgun

uneven kiln
#

Each shot should be around ~50 damage

tardy ingot
#

11,4 x 1,3 x 5

#

against tanks x 3

#

but vs tanks youd just use choke mod, sniper (or if ballsy shotgun)

#

especially since choke mod was top 2 charger clear option

uneven kiln
#

so ~74 against mom and ~44 to tanks

#

the tanks number isnt too horrible, if that person is plucking from a distance they can pop a tumor in around 3 shots

surreal wraith
#

does buckland sb70 (regular shotgun) one-shot charger scouts to the back?

minor fractal
#

Be aware you need perfect back w/ perfect damage

frail heart
#

Look for it on the cosmetics wiki page and it’ll say where to get it

steep ivy
#

is it even possible to beat r8b2 solo/with bots?

wild flare
#

yes

#

this lvl is not that hard

steep ivy
#

is there something that i'm just missing then? i put all ammo into the big guy and my ai don't shoot him at all

wild flare
#

bots cannot shoot kraken tumors

#

so you have to solo him

steep ivy
#

i really shouldn't have bought scattergun then huh

wild flare
#

kraken on this lvl is nerfed, so you can kill it faster

#

yeah, bc / hel rifle is better

steep ivy
#

recommended primary/tool?

wild flare
#

cant go wrong with sawed-off as primary

#

tools are bio+mine+2 turrets

steep ivy
#

and i assume just lock the player slots just before fight?

wild flare
#

wdym? you play with bots

steep ivy
#

issue i had was ai stole all the ammo shooting at the meatballs

wild flare
#

there are enough ammo for everyone

#

like i said, kraken is nerfed on this lvl

#

like pop 3 tumors = kill iirc

steep ivy
#

i wasn't even able to get through the first

#

however that was with carbine

wild flare
#

bc is like second best kraken tumor poping gun after sniper, also good vs other enemies, use it

burnt inlet
#

I thought hel rifle would be better than BC tbh

wild flare
#

for popping kraken tumors no

burnt inlet
#

Damn

wild flare
#

i used it on r6d1, it was so slow

burnt inlet
#

Yea

burnt inlet
wild flare
#

checkpoint lvl

steep ivy
#

what's the bc

burnt inlet
#

With funny speedrun strats

wild flare
#

burst cannon

burnt inlet
steep ivy
#

ahhh, well i bought hel rifle so will give a shot

wild flare
#

hel rifle is good too, i used it on r8b4

#

it is just slower vs krakens, but still good

#

also easier to use, then bc

burnt inlet
#

@steep ivy just for reference you kinda wanna wait with R8 until last

steep ivy
#

well it's either this or trying to fight my way through r2d2, r3c1 (i think), forgot what up to in the rest all i know is i don't like them

burnt inlet
#

Pub R2D2?

steep ivy
#

no, been playing solo with bots the entire time

burnt inlet
#

You could try tbh

wild flare
#

i really cannot recommend to do r2d2 with bots

burnt inlet
#

But yea I do get what you mean with playing with bots

steep ivy
#

only issues i have with r3c1 is not being able to hold waves back while doing overload

wild flare
#

there are no other objectives on r1-r3

burnt inlet
#

R3 doesn’t have overload I think?

steep ivy
#

then would be 4

burnt inlet
#

It’s the charger error

steep ivy
#

wait thinking r7 some something

#

i mix levels up a lot

burnt inlet
#

Same tbh

steep ivy
#

all i know is its the level where you start with nothing but get a ton of consumables

wild flare
#

r7c3

steep ivy
#

yeah that one's no like

burnt inlet
#

R6C3 is such a pain lmao

#

Can’t look at 3 the same way now

wild flare
#

also r6c3

burnt inlet

Yea we were just on a recon mission

I’ve never seen

So like

Ofc we gonna get to turbine at like 20-25 min mark

burnt inlet
#

Oh yea

hushed pagoda
#

haven't tried it but i read that you can kill a tank with mines. I was curious as to if the placement matters, wiki says 7 mines, some on reddit used 8 or more, but also had inconsistencies. should the mines say be placed on the top part of a doorway so the mines have direct line of fire to the tumors from above? am about to try R4C1

prime musk
#

7 mines hitting tumors kills. only reason to use more is if they are placed in different locations in case any of the first 7 miss, though usually you just stack them exactly on top of each other (in which case either all miss or none i believe?)

hushed pagoda
#

so the mines, like guns, do not actually cause damage unless the explosion column actually hit the tumors, right? are they still influenced by the multiplier of the tumors?

prime musk
#

the explosion column has to hit the tumor, and the tumor has to be the first hitbox of the tank the explosion hits just like any gun

hushed pagoda
#

ohh

prime musk
#

the mines still take the multiplier of the tumors (3x) and use their precision multiplier (1x)

hushed pagoda
#

i imagine then if you placed the mines lower then it will actually hit the legs first hence why people say place it facing down?

prime musk
#

so 50dmg becomes 150, meaning 7 gives 1050

#

tank health is 1000

hushed pagoda
#

oooh alright

burnt inlet
hushed pagoda
#

oh yes thats... another one i wanted to ask lol

frail heart
prime musk
#

i wish i knew that , but given the tank kills i've done with mine deployer i think they can all hit the same tumor

frail heart
#

if you place them on the same spot

#

which you should do anyway

burnt inlet
#

ait

hushed pagoda
#

cool cool, many thanks

#

i apparently can't trust one of my teams to clear this thing, apparently i'm the most dependable which is, not good

burnt inlet
#

you need to be a team to kill it

burnt inlet
#

someone needs to get targeted and another guy needs to shoot

prime musk
#

if you're placing scattergun as client you can definitely just delete all tanks before r4e1

hushed pagoda
#

oh i know that, the other team I play with can actually kill it

prime musk
#

since ||they're sleeping when you find them||

hushed pagoda
sudden nexus
prime musk
#

didn't think of that

hushed pagoda
#

both of the teams i play with independently decided to do rundowns sequentially (mostly, haven't cleared R2E1 cuz fuq that)

prime musk
#

ig we need pubdown scattergun for that

hushed pagoda
#

but one team is leagues better and ahead of the other xd

sudden nexus
#

no more tank

prime musk
#

it's r4c1 you can just take 3 or 4 scatters and tank is nonexistent

hushed pagoda
#

does it matter if the scattergun man is the host or not?

prime musk
#

it's far easier if it's on client

sudden nexus
#

client > host

hushed pagoda
#

oh

prime musk
#

it deals as much damage on host, but client makes getting full damage free

hushed pagoda
#

so, i have a joke

prime musk
#

while on host it can be inconsistent

hushed pagoda
prime musk
#

no wonder r2e1 was a skip then

errant dome
hushed pagoda
#

which is funny considering how many times I've saved them using those xd

errant dome
#

do they even take dmg?

burnt inlet
#

all pelets hit one tumor whilst the other one is some pelets hit tumor others continue to next thing

prime musk
#

idk how mines are programmed in the game but it seems very similar to guns

prime musk
#

like everything else about mines indicated that they should be dealing damage to tumors and break them and cap out at like 1 mine per tumor

#

but it doesn't for whatever reason

hushed pagoda
#

many thanks, gonna take these mfs to hell again now

prime musk
#

take them to r2e1 and force them all to play hel shotgun + combat shotgun

hushed pagoda

oh don't worry

what lvl was it?

tardy ingot
#

R4A3

frail heart
#

ah

burnt inlet
tardy ingot
#

slightly slower than your duo frosty (which, with a bot, isnt too bad)

tardy ingot
#

which like

errant dome
burnt inlet
#

fair enough ig

frail heart
#

if ur gonna speed just do duo or 4man

tardy ingot
#

^

frail heart
#

or solo

burnt inlet
#

wanna rezz the trio thing tho

tardy ingot
#

oh ya

burnt inlet
#

which we kinda did

tardy ingot
#

it cant be rezzed

frail heart
#

rezz?

tardy ingot
#

it was never alive

burnt inlet

unfort

tardy ingot

like jokes aside

#

because some people seem to think its funny or smth

uneven kiln
#

genuine related question by the way if some maniac manages to true solo R5D1 with the full speedrunning ruleset that’s still not gonna be a fast time due to all the sustain scans, what would be the benchmark for an acceptably fast run if that were submitted

tardy ingot
#

trio is genuienly in such a bad spot

burnt inlet
#

i dont think trio is that bad tbh

tardy ingot
#

its neither the real potential (full team)
nor the super mindfuck that solo is
nor the mix that duo shows

its just the wack middle ground of duo and full team

fathom ice
#

my main concern is scans

#

for trio

#

ngl

tardy ingot
#

theres a reason people dont rly do "trio clears"

fathom ice
#

like u get 4 scans and u have 3 people

#

smh

frail heart
#

trio doesnt really give much as a speed

prime musk
#

hard trio runs are actually kinda interesting because you fully can play everything like 4man, but it is still harder
duo forces strat changes from 4man in hard levels

tardy ingot
frail heart
burnt inlet
#

ima run death% fuck it lol

tardy ingot
#

also ngl

#

if you want to "trio speedrun" due to difficulty

#

then just full team speedrun

frail heart
#

^

tardy ingot
#

when youve basically not run much of anything

tardy ingot
#

(just dont run mine%)

#

rng is stupid

burnt inlet
#

nah giant% might work

#

did some yesterday and got a 5 second run

errant dome
#

whats mine% even

frail heart
#

run bbc death% surely

tardy ingot
#

id recommend spitter%

frail heart
#

tgb actually grinded that

fathom ice
burnt inlet

tardy ingot

find the level with earliest spitters (r5b2 in og, sadly no longer)

errant dome
fathom ice
#

na

frail heart
#

no just a mine

fathom ice
#

mine deplo

tardy ingot
#

but the tec is fucked

#

mine% is probably the most bs speedrun
if anyone ever gets it thats gonna be crazy stupid

frail heart
#

eva what about glitched mine% where you preplace mine LMAO

fathom ice
#

ohhh

tardy ingot
fathom ice
#

wait he's so right

tardy ingot
#

you know the bad part frosty

fathom ice
#

late drop into mine

#

gg

tardy ingot
#

you wouldnt even rly safe time over a perfect non glitched

burnt inlet
#

why isnt there a list of levels in the wiki where enemies appear smh

uneven kiln
#

Starting?

radiant magnet
errant dome
#

is this like a thing where you need a sleeper to insta trigger the mine or smthing

tardy ingot
# fathom ice late drop into mine

nono
1 - death% are solo (so no early drop mine)
2 - frosty is talking about a different bug where you placed a mine in the PRIOR run

fathom ice
frail heart
fathom ice
#

I assume

radiant magnet
tardy ingot
fathom ice
#

the tech would be to get enemy in spawn

#

or smth

tardy ingot
frail heart
#

what if you just get a long range mine trigger

fathom ice
#

oh

tardy ingot
#

enemies spawn outside mine range

frail heart
#

on every level?

tardy ingot
#

iirc yes

frail heart
#

hmm

tardy ingot
#

the one thought

#

was if theres a level with bodies that trigger the mine

burnt inlet
#

wait eva i thought all of the dmg had to be from one enemy for death%

frail heart
#

does any level have respawn sacks in starting zones

prime musk
#

what's mine trigger range? 15?

tardy ingot
#

just the finishing blow

burnt inlet
#

oh shi

tardy ingot
tardy ingot
frail heart
#

damn

tardy ingot
#

same issue as enemy (but worse since in the ceiling)

errant dome
#

wait do respawn sacks trigger mines

burnt inlet
#

ima see if i can steal a record

tardy ingot
#

iirc, yes

#

some bodies (see r8b1) do

frail heart
errant dome
#

the more u know, dam

tardy ingot
#

also @errant dome @prime musk @fathom ice find a 4th

(which level you running anyway)

wait didnt you have lakana lol?

we got some people to do trios

all speeds are valid

NO

even if trios are weird

actual good trios are fine

trios with sky and zed were fun

long ass trio run

ocean lance

cause they are fun

not cause the levels are fun

tardy ingot

you know

imagine if you got a 4th

more fun

#

you already so close

nah

what if i dont want to speed seriously

you think we were taking it seriously LOL

it certainly wasn't super serious but it was hardly unserious

also, genuine question, how many a-c tiers speeds are just tohou knockoffs with shooter capping on alarms?

frail heart
#

none

tardy ingot
#

like... 1?

#

R7C1

frail heart
#

r7c1 trios

tardy ingot
#

for first alarm

frail heart
#

i mean

#

duos

tardy ingot
#

you do it for full team too frosty

#

but just 1 alarm

errant dome
#

crazy

hoary mason
errant dome
#

thought it'd be more lvls

frail heart
tardy ingot
#

its a cool strat adaption for R7C1

prime musk
#

you actually shooteruncap after the alarm?

frail heart
tardy ingot
#

that doesnt cap shit for anything else

#

and isnt worth it anyway

#

its just THAT alarm that you dont want shit to spawn

frail heart
#

big ass waves

tardy ingot
#

because fog is up and it stops clean up (which is timeloss since its 4 cells being moved)

tardy ingot
# errant dome thought it'd be more lvls

genuienly watch some speeds (I can tell you some with decent strats at least so its not R1A1 level of breh)

Spawncapping is ultra rare and just not worth ever

frail heart
#

spawn cap usually just loses time from setup

errant dome
#

i mean ive watched a decent amount of like E tiers and some Ds

#

i just dont watch any a-cs other than 1 r7c1 one which had the shootercap strategy lul

tardy ingot
#

bruh

hoary mason
#

@tardy ingot go get egg tag, you are in Alexes server for that already

tardy ingot
#

i will wait for a better tag

#

its either gonna be potato, hut or log

hoary mason
#

tag's can only be 4 characters long

#

unforch for potato

errant dome
#

pota

hoary mason

wait

#

nvm I'm gone

I woke up and thought it's been an hour

errant dome
#

lmao

prime musk
#

that's crazy

burnt inlet
#

i wonder if BBC death% can be optimized

fathom ice
#

surely

errant dome
#

doubt it, tgb surely optimized it already

sudden nexus
#

we can do better with BBCs

errant dome
#

actually what lvl has bbcs closest to you from spawn? hmm

burnt inlet
#

tgb chose R6D2

#

which is a scan away

errant dome
#

makes sense

burnt inlet
#

might just do charger death

tardy ingot
#

get lvl with scout in 1st zone that spawns chargers (can potentially spawn bbc)

fathom ice
#

it's the closest one psure

tardy ingot
#

trigger scout insta

#

die to bbc

#

surely

errant dome
#

is there even a lvl with charger from scouts in 1st zone?

tardy ingot
#

if theres one like that

burnt inlet
#

and that would spawn it, you run to spawn quick enough to justify that over a scan?

fathom ice
#

there's like

#

2 levels that spawn charger waves

burnt inlet
#

ok ima do charger%

errant dome
#

r4c3 prolly for that one

fathom ice
#

true !

burnt inlet
#

dont think i have that

prime musk
#

6d2 still best

#

1st room has more chargers in 6d2

fathom ice
#

man

errant dome
#

well its just last hit right?

fathom ice
#

6d2 is answer to many things

fathom ice
#

and get licked

#

prob

tardy ingot
#

punched

#

but yea

#

need in door bbc

fathom ice
#

oh

#

it was about charger%

errant dome
fathom ice
#

not bbc

errant dome
fathom ice
#

u can

#

82 pref

burnt inlet
#

12.994 second charger

errant dome
#

then yea in that case i think r4c3 would be better cause enemies can technically spawn closer to you (?) either way should be minimal diff from r6d2 i would think

burnt inlet
#

for giant% was there a reason eva went with machinepistol(i think it was that)

errant dome
#

i imagine fastest gun to shoot prolly

burnt inlet
#

maybwe

#

anyways doesnt mine do 100%?

prime musk
prime musk
burnt inlet
#

fair

tardy ingot
#

no need to mine

errant dome
#

true

#

tho i dont wanna imagine the % chance of that happening

burnt inlet
#

i wonder if i could somehow get myself low with mines when doing charger% in R6D2

frail heart
#

sub 15...

errant dome
#

nailing the exact time for a comp is a pain

frail heart
#

i think sub 16 for the best time actually would have been good

#

split strat is fun

prime musk
#

naw sub 18

#

sub 16 is way too rough imo

frail heart
#

sub 18 is kinda free with split ngl

prime musk
#

yes

fathom ice
#

frosty u gotta keep in mind

errant dome
#

thats assuming u dont die on split tho

prime musk
#

sub 20 was chosen to be a good time that doesn't force split

#

sub 18 is a good time that forces split kinda

frail heart
fathom ice
#

that split is actually like kinda hard]

frail heart
#

the whole point of the lowest time was it was meant to be hard

fathom ice
#

and how much of sub 16 do we have

#

4 was it or 5 smth

prime musk
#

frosty sub 20 is hard

frail heart
#

over half the times were sub 20 for the comp btw

prime musk
#

over half the submissions

fathom ice
#

i mean it was same with r3d1

#

so like

#

idk

prime musk
#

way more of the completed runs of comp were above 20 than were below 20

frail heart
#

yeah but soy wanted a quite hard time for this one

#

and i dont think sub 20 was it

fathom ice
#

remember ur words before comp

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

frail heart
#

i had not run it

ocean lance
#

guys

frail heart
#

i was going off what chill said

errant dome
#

i mean if the intention was like, u cant carry people for hard role

sturdy glen
#

I mean split is still miserable with not 4 good player lobbies

frail heart
#

the entire point of 3 times was to have a quite hard time for the people who wanted to grind

sturdy glen
#

And idc about having a better role

frail heart
#

so that people couldnt just get tour guided

worthy sandal
#

chill always carry, trust

sturdy glen
#

The event was good so who cares

frail heart
#

yeah

#

but just seeing how many got sub 20

ocean lance
#

idk I grinded for my role

fathom ice
#

i don't think forcing split

#

is a good idea

frail heart
#

makes me think it should've been lower

frail heart
#

without compromising the accessability

#

if you grab any 4 of the people who werent "tour guided" then sub 20 is not hard to get

fathom ice
#

i mean there shouldn't be like only 10 people with roles then

#

cuz there's 2 actual speed teams

sturdy glen
#

Could've just kept 2 times and dropped 50

frail heart
#

yeah ngl

#

no one submitted a sub 50

errant dome
#

there was one no?

fathom ice
#

psure there was one

errant dome
#

or am i tripping

fathom ice
#

but could've dropped sub 50 i agree

frail heart
#

one

#

out of like 50 runs

sturdy glen
#

Not by intention

#

But yes there's 1

ocean lance
#

there was one sub 50

frail heart
#

I just dont think the sub 50 gave incentive

#

but yeah

#

i think like at least sub 18 should've been the lowest

#

i dont think the expectation was met for the time

fathom ice
#

i think it went well

#

if u wanna make a challenge for urself just get lower time

ocean lance
#

honestly

frail heart
ocean lance
#

I cared more about last comps roles than this one

tardy ingot
ocean lance
#

cause it was just tour guides

prime musk
#

it's fair that the expectation wasn't met, but in order for it to be met you most likely have to spend a week running it seriously before comp

ocean lance
#

this comp we actually had teams

#

thst grinded for the Rome

#

role*

#

and got it without a tour guide

ocean lance
#

grinded like a week or two

fathom ice
sturdy glen
#

Freedom

tardy ingot
#

the incentive of having a real hard time is that you either are already there (and get the good run) or practice and get there

prime musk
prime musk
#

after a few days maybe

#

ie

frail heart
#

But in hindsight, it could have been lower

tardy ingot
#

sub 20 was 100% too lenient

event was still great and R5E1 a great speed level

sturdy glen
#

I still think 20 is perfect

prime musk
#

it takes a few days to a week to figure out the time

frail heart
#

If it was done again then a lower time would be better

ocean lance
#

idk team 20 is good

fathom ice
#

idk team I feel like 20 is good

tardy ingot
#

sub 20 is perfect for a more casual speed time

fathom ice
#

if u can get lower time

#

it's great

ocean lance
#

it took some teams without speedrunners 2 entire weeks of grinding to get it

minor fractal
sturdy glen
#

I don't think a lower time achieves literally anything

tardy ingot
#

its not "decent time run challenge" but "speedrun challenge"

frail heart
#

The lowest time was meant to be a challenge for speedrunners, soy said this

#

It was not a challenge

tardy ingot
sturdy glen
#

And I told soy that 20 wasn't that

#

And here we are

#

So?

tardy ingot
#

so you agree

#

crazy

frail heart
#

But you also said that he shouldnt force split

sturdy glen
#

I got what I wanted

civic wave
#

what ray said rings true i say

sturdy glen
#

Cope

frail heart
#

I had fun im not annoyed about it

#

its literally just a hind sight thing

#

I dont care like at all

civic wave
#

like, sub20 is already kinda bad unless you can push the run on your own very hard, it'd be a bit fucked going for lower with a team that doesn't live in speedruns and have the knowledge and behaviours

frail heart
tardy ingot
#

that was the point for the lowest time tho

frail heart
#

i cant say it again

tardy ingot
#

its litteraly

#

a speedrun challenge

minor fractal
#

That wasn't the point, tho

frail heart
minor fractal
#

We get sub-16 anyway because we have an interest in running anyway

civic wave
#

yea if you're trying to make the good runners play for longer to get their time then sure

frail heart
#

"where people cant just get tour guided easily"

minor fractal
#

Idk what Soy said specifically, but it wasn't why I recommended splitting the times initially

civic wave
#

but mind you, all a lower time does is make it take longer for a skilled team to achieve the time, they'll get the role regardless

tardy ingot
#

where you fine tune the times in the end is up to debate with how much youd want people to push for it

but 20 is extremely lenient

frail heart
minor fractal

Thoughts on having two colored name times (so, 3 roles) for the comp?
as a means of having a smoother gradient between an easy and a hard time for E-tiers.
Might also do well for speed comps in general, it just stands out for E-tiers due to there being a much steeper curve.
