this is my first speedrun of any kind, my friend does speedruns here and showed me some of his strats and I also decided to watch some of the IL videos to help guide me more. I somehow did really good this time, my last 5 attempts I either got softlocked or just died a lot so I am happy with this outcome. I also ended up getting 3:01:32 but I forgot to check the "save previous videos" tick in the twitch settings and my run after that I ended up getting softlocked in hypocenter somehow because hendricks decided not to move at all. the world record is obviously extremely hard but I think it is still possible so I might give it a few more shots. I feel like I have to get better to do so or atleast get sub 2:40. also my consoles load times isn't the best so I had to try my best to shave the most time as I can. probably could've gotten 2:41:00 atleast if I was on PC. my run starts at 00:02:14
my loadout: PRIMARY -KN-44 [FAST MAG, EXTENDO, RAPID FIRE] SECONDARY -MR6 [DEFAULT ATTACHMENTS] LETHAL -THERMITES X2 TACTICLE -EMP X2 PERKS -BOOST JUMP/NON-STUTTER (forgot what they were called)
my cybercores: (MARTIAL)vvv -OVERDRIVE -UPGRADED UNSTOPPABLE FORCE (OP) (CONTROL); switch when u get to rise/fall (whatever ndt did)vvv -ENHANCED REMOTE HIJACK (buy it and upgrade when u reach vengeance it costs 3 unlock tokens!!! and use it on the robot at the end of rise/fall)
