Hi, My BadEnding% run was 1:16 RTA and 1:17 IGT. But I did a run a couple of days ago and my time was again 1:16 RTA but 1:11 IGT. I don't know if it's because I changed my laptop and I'm using LiveSplit instead of WSplit now. I would like to have your opinion about what is more revelent between IGT and RTA and if I should submit my new run.
RTA is how the record is decided so it is the deciding factor. IGT is asked for on top of that for comparative reasons and also if there is a compelling reason to switch time methods in the future we can.
Timing for Saints Row games will always be contentious. IGT would be preferable as load time differences can be pretty big as can be seen with the top 2 times in SR3 they are 3mins 30sec different but have the same IGT due to computer differences. The issue with using IGT is that save warps are used in all 4 games which IGT will not keep track of leaving scope for it to be abused with warps that would be inefficient in RT. So in short both timing methods have flaws but RTA is the way it has to be done.
