Hi everyone, First of all, sorry for my english. Then, i made this post to propose a new category for the game "Sea of Thieves".
The category would be a run all books in the maiden voyage OR a 100% run of the maiden voyage where we need to unlock all the achievement, but there is a problem on the chicken part, the chicken may not spawn and so, the run can not be done!
And also define the category's rules.
Here is an exemple of the run 100% maiden voyage :
Thanks you, waiting for your opinion.
I really like the idea of the 100% maiden. 2 essential thing:
- do it on a 2nd blank account (everyone can do it https://www.seaofthieves.com/forum/topic/74056/is-it-possible-to-make-a-new-character/4) and we can see it on the reccord
- the start of the stopwatch must be done at the first word of the pirate because according to your connection the moment or you can move changes.
If people would prefer a 100% instead of an All Journals category then you wont need to make a new account. I will watch and make sure all the objectives are completed. But as lapkist says, theres actually a chance that when you spawn into the island no chickens will spawn making one of the tasks impossible. I'm not actually sure how I make an extra category for an individual level but I'll figure it out or ask smoosh.
I think either would be cool. I like the idea of having an all achievements run. It really is no big deal to create a second account for the run and anyone not willing to do so doesn't really want to attempt the run anyway. And the 100% is super practical. Both great ideas. Unfortunately, due to excessive pranking last year, we can't edit the page today. This is not an April fools joke, but because of them. We had a nice thing and everyone broke it... For shame speedrun.com, for shame.
@Toastiewaffles
create a new account is possible for everyone and does not ask to repay the game just disconnect from the "xbox companion" (this is the name of the application in French) your main account and reconnect with another account by relaunching the game then you can your new pirate. For the maiden and the 1, the 10 and the 11 fable at 100% forcing people to create a new account is a security (especially that it takes 2m ^^).
as you can see the 4 accessible without having to play. ^^
for other tales asking the player to have new accounts is more complicated because it requires having made the tales before. in these cases it is enough to ask 1 of the players to have an account so the achievements on the tales are not made. because even if the tales is locked the achievement appears on the screen and we get the last item of tales.
The problem of making a new account is that when you need to re run, you have to do one more account and someone i know got lot of his account banned cause i seems to have done to much (he says the limit is 8 ) so we have to clarify this before some people gets banned even on the main. Or it'll place the possible try to do this run of 7 try.
the other question and for the rules of 100% of the other tales. for books must the witness account only have to get the books or all the pirate? (for crews of more than 2 pirate).
Well if everyone's okay with using a second account for maiden then thats fine by me. To my knowledge if we add a 100% to one level it will add it to all levels so the rules will be like "You must complete every commendation that CAN be done in a single run of the tale" so for most thats just the books. In maiden it includes all the other stuff, in seabound it includes digging up the 3 things, and in shores of gold it includes selling the hoarders skull.
@lyran good question. Technically if only 1 pirate read all the books they are the only one doing 100% but I dont mind if its just 1 person. Just make sure that I can see each book being read to at least the 2nd page (Thats how the commendation counts it)
obviously making a new account to run all of them would be a nightmare so I again dont mind going through the video myself to make sure every part is done. It is my job.
don't forget the concept of speedrun, the goal is not to create a new account each time you try
@Toastiewaffles I see the use of the 2nd account a bit like the fact of starting from scratch on a new save as on the other game to run. the other advantage is that we have confirmation that the books are well read in full and well taken into count by the game (it happens that the fact of reading it too quickly does not validate in the achievement). the only time when the 2nd account will not be necessary is for solo players on the run of tales 2 to 9 because they will not be able to launch the fables with a blank account.
@Aliikaz I don't see where the problem is literally enough 2 more handles to suppress an old pirate is relaunched this same pirate you will lose like 20 seconds after each retry for the maiden moreover it would be valid only for the 100%
As I suspected, creating a 100% category for Maiden Voyage creates one for all Tall Tales so I've had to have a lot of rules, maybe check through them yourself and tell me if I've missed anything but I think I've considered all complications Tales might provide.
Would it be possible for one of you to create a Guide in the 'guides' section of the website about creating a new pirate for 100% runs? Just so that new runners can also do it. Make sure to mention deleting the pirate for new runs. I'd do it but I've not made a new pirate myself yet.
I've also said that making a new pirate is recommended but not necessary. I'd prefer it if you made a new pirate but if you can't (For example solo players or maybe xbox players?) I won't disqualify the run.
I'm not against showing how to do it, but my companion xbox is in French. normally it's the same place where you have to click sorry for my english if you did not have a second mail window account created in one.
@Toastiewaffles exception for the run 2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9 in solo sloop. I think that it is necessary to add the rules to use the blank account. (a friend showed me that we could do the same on xbox in the 2 cases just disconnect from the xbox companion and reconnect with another account) we can have up to 8 account for 1 game purchase. everyone can do it
to be able to launch in duo the tales lock and that the blank account then to vote with it is enough that the creator of the boat is an account with the fable of unlocking
@lyran, rajouter 20sec, c'est rajouter 20sec de par try, donc 3 try une minute, ainsi sa augmente le temps perdu par le speedrunner. Surtout que perdre du temps pour un speedrunner c'est qu'il y a de plus horrible. Après si vous souhaitez créer une catégorie supplémentaire juste pour vous amuser, allez y ! Sa reste une plaie pour vous.
@Aliikaz sauf que sur 90% des jeu speed run en 100% tu recommence avec des save clean car "c'est les acheminement du jeux qui compte". je parle pas de faire sur la any% car la aucun intérêt.
for the English except that on 90% of the speed run game in 100% you start again with save clean because it is the routing of the games that counts. I'm not talking about doing on the any% because the no interest.
I agree with lyran, it's quite simple to "add" a new pirate as we can see in the video he made. I think it's better to have a blank pirate to do the run so we can easily check the achievement. It's true that going to delete his pirate each time takes a while (even if it corresponds to a few seconds), but I prefer this method.
As for the rules, I suppose they are almost the same for each fable with some exceptions?
EDIT: I created a new guide for creating a new blank pirate (really easy).
Rules are ammended to say you pretty much need to make a new pirate (With a few exceptions). Thanks so much for the guide lapkist. That should make the run accessible to new runners.
