rocks, locks, and invisible blocks

yeah I'm not sure what you're talking about

He won't be doing the pipe part at all... he got out of bounds, so it'll be a lot faster to go out through the front. Will be insane.

why no r-jumping at the end?

2015-03-21 12:26:51 am

he will optimize it more later

This was more of a "Oh my god I just beat the load and now I can skip half the escape" post.

yeah if you read the description on the video, you'll see it was controller save state. I hardly used any rerecords doing that. ;)

This is sooooo entertaining.

Is the alternate way out of the bottom of biotech (broken glass -> post -> bj over the railing) slower for a TAS? EDIT: seems like, plus it you have to move away from the hatch for it to open that way.

BTW, that SW also can happen in the E3/Kiosk demo. Great to see that its possible in the full release. Does the tunnel actually load if you stand at the edge, or were you lucky enough to find a route to trigger the hatch but not load the room? Where's the trigger/loading zone(s)?

He actually hit the loading trigger, he just went so fast that he made it into the tunnel before it finished loading.

time to do it in non-tas runs!

My 4:45 prediction was pretty close to it though

cant you keep the lockon onto the pirate until you transition the next room and dash onto the next loading trigger? (and maybe keep the speed of the dash somehow and land right onto the next door)

2015-03-21 11:59:03 am

I'm pretty sure morphing and falling forever isn't a good strat.

The only thing that bothers me is it's not possible to do this on console, the gc loads the room too quick (and dolphin has issues loading that room for some reason, you can beat the load by going moderately quickly) but it's super entertaining nonetheless

2015-03-21 01:56:32 pm

It's not possible?

Baby Sheegoth

2015-03-21 01:57:49 pm

Not on console, I'll post a video of me beating the load by going moderate speed in a bit if you guys want? I don't mean to shit on the TAS its super satisfying to watch but i don't think it is doable on console...

unless that's not what andy is aiming for, then I'll shut up.
