Alright It should be fixed now! Thanks for letting us know!

Not gonna lie this doesnt make sense. Time should start upon 1st available input which is when cutscene appears. I'm pretty sure the game itself too keeps track of your time from there too.... Why this doesnt make sense to start the timer at the ladder is if a clip is found early on you can skip using the ladder entirely. Then what? The timer never starts because you never went up the ladder and simply fell to a lower level and you could complete a time with 0s. I mean you've technically completed the game at that point and the final door more than likely will still give you a time because it started its timer. We need to start doing runs at 1st available input for everyone, and that is the cutscene at the very beginning where all players connect in.

EDIT: Verifier explained why they are doing it this why. Removes some unnecessary RNG making the game more bearable to run. 7 different spawn locations at start getting the Jelly is pretty important. So instead of getting a run only 14% of the time you can start one every time.

Hey, didn't know where I should post this, but I found a Chapter 3 OoB but not sure if it has any use to it or not. Just wanted to let you guys know. I've noticed that the game is weird with water so hoping there is a potential skip. Screenshot:

Yeah! We love new runners :) i use to run myself! But I dont anymore, someone who knows the game very well in current patch would be StativXyw so I would recommend trying to talk to him since he knows it better than any if us do!

Definetly! It's not hard to pick up! All Depends on who you want to play and what category! In my opinion skips aren't too difficult either, but I've put 1300 hours into the game lol Feel free to add me on Steam or Join the Discord! http://steamcommunity.com/id/IcantDoSpeedruns/ https://discord.gg/QaM3K (Good for 24hours)

Ah sure thing! I noticed your time earlier but completely spaced out the your post. Sorry!

Comelio, a Pretty major skip was just discovered. So we will be changing up speedrun paths if you've seen any of the Speedruns on YouTube. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrMpTygROh6XmTVWdP88qqg Link to my Channel and Videos, if you want to see some of the skips. Also, if you have discord feel free to join us and we would be happy yo help! Discord: https://discord.gg/DjRdU

I don't think it should be locked to just 1 character anymore. If players want to change, then let it be. Give the player more opportunities to what the player thinks is best, rather than what I think is the best. This is lead into interesting changes for the Speedrun of the game.

Fantastic. Well All times right now will be getting changed... And selections I think it should be set as: Normal or Eclipse as the only selection of difficulties, making it much like the Halo's Speedruns Also, @DiabloGamer feel free to add me on Steam :)

Also @MechSupport Please add me on Steam. I posted my Profile link in a previous comment! Love to teach you somethings, such as why LLH On Weiss works only sometimes and that shouldn't be completely relied on.

The only problem is... Majority of the players rather play just as 1 all the way through. To show their skill with that single character, and if you wanted the fastest possible run. You would just end up picking Blake throughout the entire game.

So something that can be done is RWBY% Runs, which is playing all the way through the campaign 4 times once with each character. Showing skill with every character, and not just one. @MechSupport

Awesome! and yes we still have Speedrunners! Feel free to add me on steam and I can show you or verbally help you learn any trick or answer any questions you might have about this game!

So after buying an item 3x it becomes gold. So, shouldn't that be a part of 100%? The Goal of 100% in most games to get it everything maxed out with the true game ending. Cause Any% and 100% are way to similar in this game. I mean seriously the Any% WR is the 100% WR... That just doesn't seem right.

Nice... Just give your Steam, and I'll add you when I get the chance.

You're more then welcome! Feel free to add me on Steam if you have anymore questions, or need any help! Steam: Available Shouldn't have a profile picture, and should have 750 Hours+ On RWBY, to narrow it down if there is multiple.

Sorry, for the late response. Blake, is the easiest character because of her quick movement and how spam able her Shadow-Strike is. Ruby, on the other hand has potential to be just as fast as Blake. Ruby's Combat is not the best, but her skips is what keeps her on par with Blake. I would say, Blake is the fastest character and the easiest to learn. While Ruby is almost just as fast but has the most difficulty.

Also, I strongly recommend you check out the 'Guides' section! I've posted the skips, and how to do them there for every character, and every level!

Once again, I'm very sorry for the very late reply. Usually I'm always on top of this stuff.

What do you think about All Artifact runs. I was talking to some people about that on the RWBY: GE Discussions, and a few said that it would be interesting and would be like a 100% category for the game.

Reconnects changes difficulty though, and just doesn't feel like your really playing co-op or putting truely any strategy into the game. Also, I this is the only game I use auto spliter for because the Start is Almost near instant and Switching between controllers makes things difficult and possibely lose time and Peoples splits are less accurate when they are not using Auto Spliter. And some time there is panic cause of a really good pace and they will some times split a 1sec early. And it throwing the splits off from everyone else.

Also do you speedrun this game?

I think, If players were to use the Auto spliter, times would be more accurate, and precise. I rather have Have things be more precise rather then players accidentally hitting the timer early or forgetting to split.

Players in co-op runs should not be allowed to leave and rejoin, it ruins the purpose of the run and changes difficulty which I think is something major, and should not be allowed.
