Yeah but none of the console run's have an accurate IGT posted on there, they just put the same time as RTA.

It's weird how it works and I don't quite understand it.

So I noticed that on the board, my run sits in 55th place, with a time of 1h 38m. The run above mine (54th) is a time of 1h 52m.

The question here; Why is my run lower on the board?

I've made the assumption that It may have something to do with the time without loads section not being filled in on my run? Considering it isn't something doable on console due to no autosplitter.

My thoughts; I feel like maybe the runs on the board that are with loads should be the main times instead of time without loads considering console can't do that? At least I think that is how it works, not sure, hence why I am posting here.

Feel free to disregard my thoughts on it, that's more or less me trying to shine light on the subject, but mainly, I just wanna know why my run is lower than a time posted that is slower.

I probably answered my own question but If I am wrong, please let me know.

My point still stands. It's discouraging knowing as a console player i'll never be able to reach top times. With a seperate board at least i have a fighting chance for a top time, especially now with the patch, console runs will be DRASTICALLY different since our only way around it is if we didn't update our game (or have a day 1 disc) and that sucks. So now everyone on console has to play vanilla for the most part, and anyone who wants to speedrun it, stands absolutely no chance for any kind of good time. How is that fair? How is that a even playing field when PC has the ability to downpatch? BUT, I do understand that it has to do with 1) idiot ruining it for everyone, and 2) Not alot of console players.

How many console runs are there anyway? Not very many. It isn't that hard to just make a seperate catergory for console and move them over. It would take you what, 10 min max? What's the issue?

Do whatever you guys want. it's your board and I'm not gonna try and convince you anymore past this message. I will respect whatever decision you decide to make.

@CreeperHntr I know about the tricks and stuff. MY whole thing is PC just has an advantage over console for things like loading screens, PC has mouse so looking around is better. Little things that add up. Things that console has no real way of making up for. If y'all don't want to seperate, I'm not gonna argue. Nor make a fake account and ask again.

BurlesqueEsque, I agreed with you up til this point: "You and every other console runner has made the choice to hamper their speedrun abilities by going with a cheap alternative, live with it"

Not everyone can afford a PC that can run eternal, so just saying "live with it" is basically telling all of us with console "fuck you, run pc or fall behind"

Point is, while you aren't exactly wrong, you don't need to be a dick about it..

Yeah, but not everyone knows that. Makes it easier to just have a separate category so anyone can see that there's console runs right away.

Having all the runs on one board can be discouraging for anyone wanting to run on console because all the top times are PC. Console won't even come close. Having a separate category makes people [like me] feel like they have a chance for that first second or third place time, without having to worry about PC always having the upper hand.

So it's been discovered recently that some of the tricks in PC such as slope boosting and the super jumps in Exultia, Mars Core, etc. Are doable on console. It being console it's almost guaranteed to be slower than PC, so I was wondering if it would be possible to separate the two? I have been actively learning this game the past few days on Xbox One, but it can be a bit discouraging knowing that I will probably never be able to reach top times on the current leaderboards, so I feel it may be appropriate to separate, but that discussion is up to you guys. I just wanted to shine a little bit of light on the subject, and hope that y'all may take it into consideration. Thank you for taking the time to read this.

Really? Shit I read somewhere that you can't skip any. Honestly I didn't skip them first playthrough so I didn't even know. Lol disregard this then.

Considering this game is an asshole and won’t let you skip level cutscenes til you beat the level every time you boot the console, can y’all consider a NCS board? That way we have SOMETHING to go for since we gotta beat it before doing big boy runs?
