Norway@ryedawg "While i think running a category that is slower is dumb It is no more dumb then not running a category because it is not on the main leaderboard"
So every games on speedrun that has an additional category with a rule that doesn't allow a major glitch that stays into gameplay for most of the time? What I don't get about that statement is that even through it's a bit longer, you still try to run the game as FAST as you can with additional rules that means you need to finish the main story missions that progress through the story without skipping any. In my opinion, it's not a meme and I think it would fit more into the main boards.
"When you move this category to the the main leaderboard you will see a steep drop off in runners doing Any% thus killing the progression of the game."
I really don't see that as a fact because people who don't wanna run dupeless could still run the normal Any%. Why would people leave by having this category added while it doesn't affect how the normal Any% runs in any way?
@Tirean "4. Would make the leaderboards look unattractive, unappealing and messy. Yeah this one is dumb, why can't it just look like this? https://www.speedrun.com/sm64#120_Star . Really messy right?"
Being against the run for that kind of reason is beyond stupid in my opinion. Is this supposed to be that we're trying to decorate on the main boards and make them look really nice and clean by adding very limited amount of categories. Here's another example https://www.speedrun.com/doom1 with multiple types of categories and multiple types of plays in each of them (including IL's). Some type of plays are empty but stays as anyone can post at any time which will eventually happen.
Should "All Oysters" be removed as well. Only 3 runners that submitted 1 year ago.
More people would run and verify more dupeless runs if they were in the main boards. The category in itself is not a meme, it's just Any% without being able to skip missions so yeah, it's slower but you test yourself to see how fast you can do all main story missions as fast as you can.
You need to time it right and stay on the marker. What I do is trying to trigger the marker by taking it a little bit slow when going to the marker and I let go off the call when Jizzy starts speaking, it always works for me.
I agree that the community has problem with people's toxicity and overall arrogance by people in the forums. Like there's some people who quit the speedrunning community for this reason. Overall to insult somebody or say pointless stuff is total uneeded for dumb reasons.
My first impression of a forum made by me with insults and telling stuff that ain't true in extensions. https://www.speedrun.com/gtamemes/thread/ecs2r PS: I am not taking it to a further discussion of the topic.
So in my opinion, making a discussion into a hateful discussion is where nothing good comes out of it and total uneeded for. That is all.
Softlock during BD for Denise getting killed during the cutscene.
Robbers for Local Liquor Store teleports back to their quad bikes when outside line of sight and runs into you.
Can't reqruit homies during Life's a Beach. Possibly happens if you play a replay right before entering the mission.
@Patrick_ "Make sure to actually pick up the extinguisher in Burning Desire, it can softlock the game. ?"
It happened to me during my IL run but it only seems to happen if you skip the cutscene instantly. Fast strats doing it without collecting the extinguisher is to skip when you can see the game.
