Ohio, USAI'm more than happy to add a new category if necessary. I don't have the time to check the vod at the moment, but I'm having trouble finding a version that was on PC-98. The coloring definitely looks different than the DOS version, though.
I added in some clarity in the rules about the timing.
So far as MS is concerned, I don't think current runners want that. Maybe if the majority of WR holders would want to do it, it could be considered. But also, I'm not the head mod, just added here because she was away so idk
Hello! Sorry I didn't notice before. I think they are one of the best if not the best teams. It seems like on the list they are ranked by ability to some extent, if not entirely.
I am pretty sure the names are the same, or at least, I recognize everyone you mention. By top 3 stats, do you mean Charisma/Wisdom/Intellect? Just wanting to double-check.
I know it's possible, but in the console versions actually sailing from Lisbon to Seville at level 1 seems to be much harder than it should be. I remember sailing sideways or getting pushed back towards Lisbon and just not making it on time :D But I was just pointing out the RNG element of getting there in time. I hate counting on Jose to be anywhere in particular... although it seems like it's pretty common for him to be in Genoa if not Seville or Lisbon.
Yeah, I've just had, uh, bad luck with getting to Seville before February ends. Something about sailing around that side of Iberia at level 1 sailing doesn't work well in the console versions.
I am fairly certain the game gives you a big ol' red number for crew if you don't have enough, but it's something I should probably test. 5 crew vs. 10 won't change much but it's still preferable if possible. And then having only 5 crew on galleons while sailing the world would be great :)
This ever pay out or did dude flake
I think Jose is just very RNG where he decides to move. I think my initial form of this run had me getting 95 Int or something and going directly from Lisbon to Seville within the same month so I could snag him before he moved. But level 1 sailing Mr. Franco is not great for actually making it around the bend and getting to Seville before the month flips over.
Even in the full game run, if Jose doesn't move to Lisbon in the first month, I just give up on him and eat the ~50 second time loss
I like Schmidtty's idea from the other thread. Make it 10 scores instead of some point total, so the meta won't rely entirely upon fumbles :)
Someone brought up to me that in any% it doesn't designate that you have to win the match. Perhaps that should be added? It will obviously be a terrible time if you lose, but it feels weird for it to even be an option.
Yeah, I had trouble doing some of the ones that Ucci had no problem with, but then others always seemed correct. I don't know enough to understand it all but it is definitely something that's tricky to frame-perfect get the same thing over and over.
I had this same sort of thing happen with a few other routes... the Russia 500 Hadrian's Wall Woman combo in particular seemed to vary on me despite the villain being the same. I got it often enough that I noticed the hours allotted were different, but those hours seemed to align with the different results I got playing it. But that doesn't help here since I believe I had the same hour quantity in my pb and it was the same mission. I never got the Regatta thing to show something different... saw this combo three times and it was all the same way it was in my pb.
My wild theory is that the result is modified in some fashion not just by frames until game start but perhaps each frame point (initial start, then elevator start, then mission start) might impact things in slightly different ways, which would explain maybe why you can get virtually identical cases but with just the location (and/or the final combination of searches) to be different.
