Recent leaderboard overhaul
6 years ago
Ohio, USA

Some changes have been made to the leaderboards today, and will continue to be made throughout the week.

  • DLC characters no longer are in the "Misc." section, and are instead under the EX Characters tab, seperated by sub-categories.

  • Unlimited, Destroyer and Co-Op no longer have seperate tabs for Any% and 100%, and instead each mode has a single tab with Any% and 100% as sub-categories. Co-Op has also been moved out of the "Misc." section.

  • Added an bit to the Co-Op categories rules that states it must be a 2-player Co-Op run, and not a 1p2c run.

One thing that still has yet to be done, and will be happening later this week, is adding a Legacy tab. With the release of Patch 1.3, Inti Creates has fixed the ceiling clipping glitch that was used in some 100% runs of the game. Runs using this glitch will be moved to a Legacy leaderboard to have them permanently documented, showing how the game was routed with said glitch. A new rule change will also be in effect, requiring all new runs to the main categories be using the most recent version of the game, as it is impossible for any run on patch 1.3 to beat a run done with the ceiling clip from 1.2 and before. As the ceiling clip was the only glitch currently in any routes that could be fixed, this should be the only situation where a patch causes a massive change in the time for a category.

The Legacy boards will be closed for submissions, and will be there purely to document the routes for old versions of the game. Active categories will always require the latest version of the game, and a patch will only cause runs to be moved to the legacy boards if it causes a major change in routing and time for the category. This seems like the best way to handle this fix without getting into a situation where we would all be forced to figure out ways to downgrade our BM Zero, which could get into needing to jailbreak, root, whatever your Switch.

A jailbroken 3DS can be done by finding the first update online and then using a homebrew program to install the update but the loading screens are a bit longer than Switch and it runs at a lower 30fps.

Does the game also get a revised leaderboard like the second part? modern run and steam version? I don't know yet if I should sign up for the current stuff or if It belong in another list. Because u have only the options of 3DS and Switch version :D.
