Hey there,

so, by now i'm pretty sure i'm the only one who even tries to run this game on consoles, but nevertheless, i hope at one point i wont be alone anymore. I had very little time in the last few weeks, to even do practice runs, so naturally, when i came "back" today, first thing i did was catch up and i saw that the runs were about 10mins faster as when i left.

Now, i watched Bubble's glitch guide video, and i noticed the wrong warps (also mentioned in the route paste-bin). My question now is, how much time do these wrong warps actually save? The reason i'm asking this is because, obviously thats not possible on console because we dont have a quickload mechanism. As a matter of fact, i dont even know why we have a quicksave button, if we cant quickload. The only thing that wasnt possible on console at the time of me leaving Fo4 for a bit, was the cover slide to greentechs (memory thing), but now with the wrong warps, i just wonder how much difference there is in the route in terms of time and at what point this would justify its own category for consoles. Don't get me wrong, i will enter my hopefully soon to come complete runs, in the normal any% category, but if the difference is huge, like 5+ mins (and we already have 2ish mins from greentechs cover slide), at some point it wont really be fair to compare. But since i wouldnt beat the current top times even if everything was identical, i dont mind. It's just that at least i'd like to know the limitations of my runs.

We(and every other leaderboard on speedrun.com) have a "Platform" variable. All console runs can be marked as such, and anyone viewing the leaderboard can filter PC out.

The wrong warps save something like ~8 minutes, I think.

ah okay, never saw the platform filter before. So, we're talking about 10-12 ish mins difference atm?
