Does the Out of bound really save time in Madhouse?I found that captain did it in madhouse ng,but in madhouse ng+ he didn't.So I got confused.Could someone explain it to me, please.

Yo!

So the OOB does save time in madhouse, though not nearly as much as in Easy.

For madhouse NG+, I didn't do the OOB out of unfamiliarity with the run and was certain I didnt need to to get world record. Though I would like to see it's time save once worked in to the route, as I'm sure it will net a gold later in the run.

For madhouse NG, it was definitely 100% worth doing, even if it did NOT save time. I worked it in because of a few reasons:

1. you can basically guarantee you get to do the fast jack 2 with 15 enhanced ammo, as you get 5 out of the shelf to use before the fight.
2. you get shotgun ammo from this room early to help with ammo before marge
3. you get to avoid going up the side of the stairs with the molded on it after you come through the house on the second time through, when you would normally go to the basement twice.

I haven't timed it exactly, but it helps eliminate some annoying ammo RNG and does save a bit of time.

Hope this helps and GL! Hope to see you bring that time down if you decide to go for it!

Thanks captain!The video of your new WR inpired me a lot，I never thought that madhouse speedrun can be done like that， it is so cool
