hey so on march 11th i played spec ops the line and took me 50 minutes to complete on walk on the beach difficulty but i didnt record since i wasnt planning to do a speedrun ever in my life and i didnt have a pc decent enough to record it,and today i made a post on facebook and a guy pointed out that if what i said is true that id be the number one speedrunner in the world for spec ops the line,is there any way i can send pictures because thats the only proof i got,steam captured my game time so i took a screenshot of it and the achievement "boot". thanks.
When will we stop calling PBs WRs lol
But yeah, no vid, no did, sorry kid.
Yeh, we've all done it at least once. Sometimes more. I think it's part of the initiation, but pictures don't usually count for much around here. Not just because of proof reasons, but it's just plain fun to watch someone go through the whole thing. There's this look that people get on their face when they realize that they haven't messed up yet and that this might finally be the one time when everything works out perfect, and now everything's just that much more tense, and it's a pretty cool process to watch. Plus, if we can see the strats, we can help each other improve; maybe see some things we could do to better our runs or point out some stuff that you could have done to make yours better in the future. The good news is, if you did it once, you can do it again.
30 minutes below the current world record, by accident, that's... hard to believe.
The leaderboard for Spec Ops: The Line appears to require video proof so I don't think a screenshot will cut it. If you're able to play the game on PC you should be able to use OBS to record it without too much of a performance hit. Try that out, if it doesn't work then find a digital camera (you probably have one lying around, or attached to your phone), point it at your computer and do it again.
Edit: Also, the Spec Ops: The Line boards don't use the in-game timer, because it "does not count Chapter 15 for some reason". So you'll have to time your run in real time.
alright,ill put a timer on my keyboard and ill do it again.recording this time lmao.
