Massachusetts, USAHey I tried playing the game on 1.0 and the game and AI are still harder. No worries 1.0 is not any easier I have the discs.
- Ground vehicle hitpoints were lowered.
- Droideka shield hitpoints were increased.
- Jet Trooper jet pack recharge time was increased.
- Jet Trooper EMP launcher reload time was increased.
- Dark Trooper jet pack recharge time was decreased.
- Dark Trooper Blast Cannon is more accurate.
- AI on Hard setting has been greatly improved.*
Honestly I think there are more differences that are not listed such as AAT shots not doing as much damage in both 1.0 and 1.2
TL;DR There is not much solace in 1.0 either ;(
At this point shaking up the leaderboards further (Splitscreen mode has been added to every category) to make separate categories for PS2 only (or PC only) would be a lot of work and a huge hassle to have everyone resubbmit their runs. The OOT community doesn't seem have a problem with this platform disparagement. I do not see what the need is to be hung up on a slower version of the game. You are the only person to have asked this of the community not even a PC runner has brought this up. We are in consensus on the topic, if you want to go fast, play Xbox.

Yes, the AI programming reacts strangely.
Yes. At 25 reinforcements the AI will hop out of all mounts. Sometime they switch to a nearby vehicle before then. A Video might be helpful here.
Hello again,
I just finished adding a splitscreen category for ALL existing ones. Go Nuts! Have fun!
Regards, Boston
Yes. We should implement these asap. Once I am finished with this race commentary today I'll pop in the new categories. Thank you.
Oh I also should mention the PC version is harder
Hi, Cloud City is a pain in the ass. The strat is to take all the bases and hope the enemy takes the carbon freezing chamber and funnels out to their death. It is still very AI dependent because they tend to take that back command post that leads to the back entrance to the CFC. Taking the courtyard is also very tricky so I am usually satisfied with having all the outside command posts and sniping the enemies in the courtyard and funneling out the CFC.
Good Luck, Boston
Yes, round to the nearest second for now.
For ILs timing starts when the level finishes loading to victory text. If it appears faster on Xbox it's simply another reason the Xbox version is superior for speedruns. What I am curious about is how much time Xbox One saves from reduced loading times/frame drops?
