So, Hikari made a video of him doing a speedrun of mission 30.

What he does is odd, he starts off the mission by placing C4 on the ground and blowing himself up. Getting into critical health state. Which slows down the game, he then walks the entire level, gets to the end beats the mission. To top it off, he gets S Rank, FOXHOUND AND, beats the current WR for this IL by a lot. So uh, is this going to be banned? Separate category that allows this? This is very very important.

Shouldn't it end at the end of nuclear plant? I mean that is the final mission in co-op.

So there are a couple of ways to clip out of bounds in this game. A couple of them could potentially save time if they get routed in. The first method was discovered by blackhawk65589 7 years ago. You go into a doorway and mash up and down on partner switch and you get oob and below the map. Heres the original video What he didnt know was that you can use this glitch can be used in a variety of places. The only requirement is that the door has to be near the boundary.

The second method still involves the door but its not consistent. Sometimes when you stand in the middle of a doorway, you will hit the seam and get put oob. It's very hard to do and in every single way, the first method is better. I'm still not sure if this will help runs, but hopefully this can save some time in a run if routed out it turns out to be faster. This glitch is not limited to Street Battle even though there are only videos of it being done there.

So quite recently we found out that emulator is much faster for this game. despite how much of a meme game this is, we should still figure something out in regards on how to handle this. Should we separate the times? Like have Emulator runs not competing with console runs? Or should we just keep them together? Or make console the standard version for people to use? Any and all thoughts here are appreciated.

There are a couple of issues with the categories on this site, i will list them here and hopefully they will be fixed soon.

First of all, this one isnt the biggest issue in the world but still. The difficulties do not have the correct names. again, like i said before, this isnt a huge issue, however it should still be changed.

Second of all, there is no separate category for Single Segment, VS Multi Segment. One reason why this needs to be changed is multi segment has a trick that gives it a huge time save over RTA. the trick in question is called "Resistance Trick" the video explaining it can be viewed here:

Third, each run should have to specify if it is New Game or New Game +. i understand that its easier to tell the difference by just watching the run, however, NG+ has a at least 2-3 min time save over NG, due to grenade launcher, solar gun, big boss mask, and the rail gun. It would not be fair if people doing NG automatically had to compete with people who have an easy 2-3 min guaranteed time save.

Like i said before, i hope these get fixed as soon as possible as i do not want people using an incorrect and unfair leaderboard. Thanks in advance for reading this.
