Yo can we add IL's to this game, all the levels are replayable and it would be highly beneficial for practice. I've done a couple IL's already, I mod another 50 Cent game and if you're willing to add me as a mod to this game I can add all that stuff. I also plan on doing full game runs for this too :)

I watch your runs, I don't think it's a good idea. You have some stages that don't have much challenge and fun to run.
Examples: Train Car (PSP) in 1:04.633 The Hood (PSP) in 36.833
It has stages of a few types: The Hood -> Just running Run (ignore everything) kill boss Run, kill enemies to advance and kill the boss.
Some phases are good for IL, but most would not be interesting.
I think the only category that would be good and very challenging is Low%.
- Complete the game without upgrading the character, examples: buy bullets and HP, expand life, expand stamina.
- Everything will be collected in the game.
It is basically finishing the game without spending your money.
Just because they “would not be interesting” doesn’t seem like a valid reason to not have them on the boards, they are easy to replay, and are genuinely good for practice.
I agree with Wagner. It just running to the end of the level and killing the boss. Also who wants to see IL's on easy mode with upgraded ammo or health from the start?
A low percentage can be interesting but not enough to warrant a category in my opinion. Unless you play on the higher difficulties only.
The reason I would like them on the boards is that it is very fun to optimise movement in the game, while yes, you are running to the end to kill the boss in some levels, in others you are doing much more. Certain levels like Chinatown require routing, combat and ammo and stamina management. As well as being NG+ IL's they are useful to optimise due to the fact that there is an NG+ full game category on the boards. Story IL's could also be added with a strict ruleset on what weapons, armour, ammo etc. can be used, these would be much more interesting runs that wouldn't simply just be "run to the end of the level, kill boss".
So start with pistol only, no upgrades used, no bought armor/ammo. Thug or Gangsta difficulties only. Seem fair?
