Wellp.
I just got the Vice City any% WR in 1:48:11. Almost a minute better than the previous one.
It's still improvable, so I'll keep going. A god run would be something around 1:45 so I'll try to come close.

http://www.twitch.tv/tyriounet/c/1974587


Wowowow, well done Tyr! I had thought the WR was nearer 1:42 so I had no idea you were doing so well so quickly! Congratulations man! Have you submitted the time to The Sunday Sequence Break? (email us!)

As far as an update for me, I've been in this curious rut. I really want to make another speedrun (be it new, or improving an old one) but I have so many other things I'd rather do. It's really weird but I don't want to work on a run with a lot of other people but I'm not too keen on working on one alone. There also aren't many games that I'm already really familiar with that I could start routing out. Hopefully something will catch soon.

Give me a few weeks to get 358/2 beginner at a point I'm happy with (I'll never escape that game...) and I'll be back to crush that record

...or run FF9 again since I'm not sure which game has the worst luck at this stage ^^

Thanks guys.

Yes, GTA runs are pretty entertaining to watch and even more fun to play. I'm having a blast just trying new strats and routes in VC.

Yeah Flicky, I just sent an email to tssb. :D

[image loading]

I was doing a test run and I uhh broke WR...

In game time is 2:24:51 according to the end of the game save file and the old time was 2:25:48.

This was my second attempt at a single segment of this game, the first one I messed up immediately and restarted into the record run.

I can cut at least four minutes off this time, I'll try and get a good record on Sunday probably as I have a charity event on Saturday.

OH SHIT ace combat 4. One of my all time favorites. Do you guys that run a bunch of different stuff just practice everything, staggered? Or do you just give it a shot and try your hardest even without tons of optimization and tricks. It seems like theres so many people here on TL that run various games very well. Demotivating me! I'm not worthy!

That's the one. Your first run is never optimised and is usually trick light. The first run is also never ever good. No matter what anyone claims, it's always bad. Remember, most games don't have good times, "World Records" are not equal.

You can do it if you want to Duka, all it takes is a little time to start with.

That's a good point, I was wondering is there a consensus opinion on which is that hardest game to make the WR time in? Due to the amount of people who have tried it for example or the high level of mechanical skill?

Super mario world any%
Super mario land

Both of them are down to the frame IIRC and will probably not be beaten for a long time.

I want to start speedrunning something...not sure what though...Ideas? I like glitches and technical stuff, im going to start practicing some OoT child dungeons but OoT is not really the game to be attempting to set records in lol. Maybe an RPG would be good to run, its just learning it and RNG right? Seems simple..

What games would you guys suggest to run with some glitches and technical aspects (Kinda like OoT)

Atm i have: A PS3 with FF8/9 on it, a Wii with OoT/MM/Alttp/Twilight princess and SM64 (All NTSC). Of course, i could get hold of games for the GBA etc via emulators...ahem...

Maybe one of the other zelda's, but they arent run so much and i want some competition...FF9 is run quite alot by some TLers and others right? Maybe i should try that, but do you need specific version? Mines PAL

I ran FF9 (Not really touched it since December unless you count me testing stuff for people) so if you are going to run it the only version to run would be NTSC on a PS2 with fast disc speed since the game has a really silly PAL version.

In short the game is hell. It causes serious damage to your hand if you run it for too long due to how much text mashing there is and the technique you have to use. The run can die at any moment without warning and random encounters make or break the game. Oh and Deathguise can kill the run 9 hours in.

If you want to run a Final fantasy run X or 13-2 since those are by far the easiest to run with FF9 and FFX-2 (English new game) being the hardest. FF8 is fairly easy outside Ultimecia and remembering all the triggers just don't expect full runs due to fish fins / cards / world map encounters.

^ I guess all those final fantasys are required to be NTSC? Unfortunately thats one bunch of games i have the entire collection for..in PAL lol.

Might try some of the different zelda games, always loved em, own them and they have a few people running them at least.

There are several Blizzard games that have not been done yet. I couldn't find Lost Vikings II, Warcraft I&II, BlackThorne on tasvideos.org.
Well, now I tell you, I never seen good come o' goodness yet. Him as strikes first is my fancy; dead men don't bite; them's my views--amen, so be it.

Honestly pick something you yourself enjoy playing. Dont worry about records and just pick something up you have fun with. Ive been playing Sora's Story in Chain of Memories because I'm insane and like getting screwed by RNG and my stupidity. Do I want the WR sure itd be nice but its not that important to me a good run and trying to improve on my best is more than enough. Going in with the plan of getting a world record is bound for nothing but frustration and failure. Just pick something you like spend 1-2 weeks trying to figure things out yourself like routes/glitches/etc then look at SDA and that after youve got a decent idea for a run in mind and see how other people have been running it. Then just start with simple reasonable goals and slowly head towards something like the world record

Edit: Caracarnvi has a good run of FF8 goin on http://www.twitch.tv/caracarnvi/new

Not looking for a world record, im just looking for some healthy competition, Something i can spend a couple of months learning rather then a couple of years in order to get up to par with some of the runners.

Still just pick something you enjoy playing and there's probably other people running it. The more you enjoy a game the quicker youre gonna learn it and pick up on things. I've been learning CoM and bugging Drazerk on a nearly daily basis with things to learn it quicker. The quicker you learn the quicker you can race and shit

Yeah just look at what happened to Cane with the Keen WR...no one wants that on their worst enemies.

If you want competition with a JRPG you could always run randomiser LT surge pokemon it has a pretty big community from what I've seen and I believe there is a TSSB episode on LG/FR you can check out.
