Portland, OR, USAthank you for the thorough post on how to replicate it! this is definitely a glitch though, and would disqualify glitchless runs. but perhaps not the route you take to get to that spot though. curious if that saves time on its own.
edit: to further clarify, any method to get out of bounds is currently considered a glitch. being out of bounds is a glitch.
While I do appreciate the input, we have had plenty of time to strategize ahead of release, given the demo which we game dumped. Many players also had early access and could strategize far earlier than most.
People can still play the game and enjoy it however they want to- nobody is making somebody speed run a game. I do understand the sentiment, having the board open this early does make people want to run it faster than it would be given an extra week embargo. You definitely do bring up a valid point. But we are going to keep it the way it is currently.
Perhaps a Google doc or something that explains all known glitches, skips, and routing?
With there being currently 5 active runners it seems maybe unnecessary as the current lot of us share a friend group. But on the other hand, it might be nice to have a dedicated place to share glitches and routes, as well as guides. Thoughts?
there are a lot of different clips that arent useful and thereby havent been named.
So far, we've called them First & Second Crow skip, door clip, (previously) gate clip (this was not a good name imo). Now there is a new clip that replaced gate and that doesnt have a name but I would be fine with dog skip as it was explained to me that skipping the first crow auto skips the second crow.
as to wether or not things are called clips or skips im honestly fine either way but skips are generally named after what is skipped versus clips being named after the thing you are clipping through.
If I were to give a list of 'skips' theyd be the following:
- House Skip
- Crow Skip
- Door Clip (name up in the air)
- Dog Skip (this skips the proposed quest skip automatically)
obviously of these house skip is the least important to be named as it is less a skip and more just part of the route, even though it feels as though it is unintended with how annoying it is to jump on that red thing straight on.
If I were to give a name to what was previously gate clip I would prefer it be called something along the lines of double clip, or rail clip, or something along those lines. although it is slower and harder than dog skip. it did accomplish skipping the dog and crow, though, so it was a thing that existed for a couple days until current dog skip.
