Do you have any suggestions?

Mediafire is obviously having some difficulties at the moment, as they've been down for almost 24 hours now ... but the site has been around for four years and this is the first extended outage they've had in my experience.

Are both somewhat decent.

Both have limited bandwidth (for both files and you the downloaders), limited number of downloads, limited storage, don't allow parallel downloads, have annoying timers or CAPTCHAs, they delete your files if people don't download them often enough, etc.

I would rather be patient and wait for Mediafire to come back online than reupload to a garbage site.

Just posting to give a huge thank you (I got distracted by Persona 3 for a couple weeks and my achievement whoring slipped) and support to finish the project.

And Mediafire is back up, if a little slow.

For the Media Blitz, I take it you count the first five minutes with Odin as well correct? For using ghosts, did you kill all turrets and detectors first?

The time used is whatever the game itself says your time is on the victory screen. The game *does* include the first five minutes with the Odin.

I didn't make the Media Blitz video that I linked to, so I can't say for sure what was done. I've done some personal testing on that level, though, and I believe the best strategy is this:
  • Kill one unit so you aren't trapped, and allow the other units to chase and damage you.
  • Walk to the SE base and destroy the topmost missile turret from below the ledge.
  • Walk to the N base and destroy both missile turrets.
  • Walk to the W base and destroy both missile turrets, the raven, and all four starports.
  • Die as soon as possible.

This will enable you to do a ghost drop, after which your only concern is the three ravens that will be spawned via triggers by the game, regardless of what you have already destroyed. Your goal once you drop the ghosts is to drop a nuke with each ghost timed perfectly such that the approaching raven is caught in the nuclear explosion before giving vision of you. Also be careful in the SE base, as the bottom turret covers all but the tiniest sliver of the target location. (You actually end up standing just outside the green circle.)

Oh fair enough!

Sounds do-able but painful. Would we have drop-pods by this time?

Have to look up the raven timing then I guess.

I love speed running individual missions.

Kind of unfortunate that the mission complete screen doesn't show the difficulty.

As far as I know this can only be done with any reasonable consistency with saves and reloads. If you examine the triggers for that mission in the map editor, you will see each tower has two possible locations for spawning a raven, and the timing is also not deterministic. Maybe if you tried 100 times you might be able to do it in a single segment ... maybe not.

Download some screencap software (fraps, guncam, camstudio), record a video, and I'll link to it in the original post.

very nice collection, thanks very much for sharing!

I found one error: The Save File from "Media Blitz" is a wrong File (its "Maw of the Void").

For the record, all my videos for Brutal is actually not individual level runs, they are for a full on segmented speedrun of the whole campaign. So some of my times in later levels may not be as good as they would be if I had access to all the upgrades I would want. I suspect a final time of around 3 1/2 hours or less. I typically update on the SDA forum, but I will try to remember to update here on TL every once in a while too.

Current Progress
Liberation Day - 2:26
The Outlaws - 6:03
Zero Hour - 20:12
Smash and Grab - 6:22

Current time: 35:03

Incomplete, but current best for Devil's playground is 6:18

I just made a bevy of updates to the OP thanks to youtube user Fragmaster01. He's got a full-game normal speedrun up that looks pretty good. A lot of the times are quite beatable though!
