Coooookie, I've been able to do the OoB and get to the water, but everytime the car sink, the mission simply fails. Does it have to be a specific place on the map or do I have to press some button?
What do you guys use for a mic? I'm looking for something "best for buck", don't really need super sound quality, just low noise.
There's just so many mics there it's hard to pick one. Half of reviewers say it has superb quality and the other half say it has bad quality :)
I saw there is a variable "fps limit" on PC version. Does it actually have any effect on the gameplay?
Also, there should be a variable "difficulty" as it has a huge effect on cops. For example the last mission is an absolute nightmare on Hard.
How about a total time for IL table for each category? It would be displayed under each column and counted from the fastest time per each level/track. Kinda like what SDA has for IL speedruns.
Hi
Just wondering, I submitted my segmented run couple months ago here and now it's gone since the category no longer exists. Why is that?
Found some new stuff, that should bring the run to sub 8 hours:
-
SSD - not sure how much faster the loading times will be, but even just one second per one race would make the run faster by at least 4-5 minutes.
-
Skip Rachel's tutorial speech - saves around 20 seconds.
-
Turn off "Crowds" - I found this by accident, but if you keep this setting turned off, you won't see those annoying cutscenes at the beginning of each race. Shouldn't save much as these can be skipped, but every second helps.
-
6th gear, Differential and LSD skip - this is what online racers use, because you get much higher top speed. You also get slightly better launches, which combined with higher top speed results in much better drags. I was also surprised the car can do much better and longer drifts. My average scores went 15-30% higher and I've already managed to easily beat all stage 4 drifts without using GTI, so it's possible I won't need it at all, thus save 2-3 minutes. As for the races, I did quite an extensive testing and there doesn't seem to be any difference on twisted courses. There's however difference on highway courses.
I propose to redo the categories, because the current ones are meh.
- Only "I Can Win" and "Nightmare". Other difficulties are imho pointless.
- Separate categories for "Vanilla Q3" and "OSP/CPMA" mods. Maybe add instagib.
- IL table for each level with same difficulties and mods.
- IL table for fastest flag capture in CTF maps.
Also, someone please change the background picture to Q3 :)
Hey guys, why nobody has ever done a multi-segment run with the new strats? Kinda like "the ultimate PoP: SoT run" with all the possible skips, no crashes, no heavy rng and no small mistakes. Just an idea...
