@Token I am aware of that. But another issue remains. Speedruns are meant to be accessible to anyone, that means somebody should be able to pick up the game and be able to get WR in theory (so basically no DLC). That was another concern I had, since P4 is DLC in some version of the game. And going of what GhostScit said "My opinion is that I think Phase 4 and all the other DLC characters should have their category". I fully agree with that. Have one "No DLC" category and one "DLC" Category.

See the idea of speedrunning is that anyone can pick up the game and do it. If anybody picks up Core Fighters, its pretty much impossible to beat the WR as is. I have tested half the roster up to now and P4 has the best stunlocke by far. On that note I recommend we limit the full game-leaderboard to those 4 characters in core fighters and leave level leader-boards as is to support everything else. But i'll wait for token's opinion.

Uhh yeah, I think it is clear that she is slightly overpowered due to the stun-lock. I propose we ban her but I need opinions, at least for the tag team runs.

will do

Hello everybody, sorry for the whole misunderstanding about the timing method. To clarify, just like the rules say, it starts when you gain control of Soldier 76 and not after the black frame. Once again sorry for any misunderstanding. Also if anyone has ideas about what other categories could be added, please feel free to suggest.

Alright, its gonna be from the second you gain control, not when I started counting.

Yeah, yeah I miss-timed. I'm actually re-doing the run in a few hours. How I plan on making it work is start frame is the second after the black screen when Soldier enters the room, and end is literally when "complete" appears, meaning first frame you see the lightning across your screen, which is what I have under rules right now.

First of all, you may be in the wrong place. This is BbS Fm (The original) that means the Japanese one. If you are referring to the FM found in 2.5 the correct categories are here: http://www.speedrun.com/khbbsfmhd BbS in General is a great place to start. Doing Ventus beginner shouldn't be too hard. But yeah, I highly recommend you do BbS FM rom 2.5 since the enemies have been nerfed and or much easier. GLitches don't really exist in BbS. In terms of what you should know feel free to contact me personally and I will help you step by step.

Thanks

Please add the 4 courses as categories, time is for 5 laps and can be viewed under the Reports Menu. Hare is my own personal PB for the first course.

@JHobz Bad example since there is also an in game timer, but here

With 2.8 coming out soon (and eventually 3) I have a question. Will we be allowed to use the ps4 stream tier as a timer? I personally don't have HDPVR and don't plan on getting one (seems too expensive) but i would still like to run the games. So, will the timer be allowed?
