It happened a while ago back in 2017 when someone asked me to give them a general list of speedrunning tricks and stuff and I decided to make a channel dedicated to it in our server. The channel will see some (hopefully) rapid additions on generations of the third and second floors soon. I'm also interested to see if some new people might come and suggest stuff to make the list of tips bigger! Infinite Invite: https://discord.gg/sHsXSfW .
There MAY be a reset made to some of the leaderboards if we notice some strong unfairity between the Supply drop and AGnD but then again we also have version numbers, wouldn't it be cool if an old run would still compare to the current ones? I asked a developer earlier in 2017 about whether the update will bring some very strong stuff or a boss-on-the-main-path so that we would have to change the leaderboards (particularly boss rush), and besides the new optional boss: Resourceful Rat, they said the only difference would be a lot of new powerful synergies and items brought to the table.
Probably yeah, we'll have to see when it happens though, I'll definitely make a post on the forum about it when it happens.
A completed save file is now added and ready for use in the resources section. Has everything unlocked in it as of september PD2 crossover update and has a lot of credits for blessed and boss rush runs. One of the next updates might add an option for save files to be chosen to not unlocks achievements so that will be implemented into it. Also, the save file will always be updated as fast as possible once new content updates come out.
Currently not, the switch version has several differences from PC/Xbox/PS4 versions in forms of features such as: teleporters in chest rooms, elevator rooms, new ammo box and other new additions. Currently the switch version is not same as other ones so having it on the board would be a bit unfair, once the full update comes out for all platforms we'll be sure to add it :). Sorry for the inconvenience :p.
Yeah I think those are a bit bugged.
Np , I'm always down for helping someone .
I have a 100% save file , if you want it I can post it right here but there is a problem , if you install it , it would unlock all achievements , I have talked to one of the developers and he said that in the next update he would add the option for achievements not to unlock on choosable save files . But if you aren't afraid of getting all achievements , here it is https://goo.gl/yMjxyh . It has the installation process in the ReadMe .
Once the new update goes live with the feature of not unlocking achievements on choosable save files , I will definitely add the save file to Resources.
After some time I started understanding that the whole idea of high curse doesn't fit in speedrunning at all , it's way too RNG based , I would say even more RNG based than blessed mode itself , the luck that's implied into high curse runs is too much to be a consistent runnable category , getting guns to chop through 3X health enemies is just insane . Most games on this site anyway have only the easiest difficulty on their leaderboards because those are the most popular to run and high curse is essentially hardmode and compared to normal runs , very slow , going against the idea of speedrunning. I am really sorry to all the people (mostly Luke) who submitted many runs to this category but it has to go , overflooding the leaderboard with way too many categories is not good , especially if those categories are not fun to run at all .
People have asked for a long time , so here it is. The leaderboard will most likely be very empty for a long time before new content updates and DLC will lure in more new players and potential runners , so any submits to the board will be very good!
I was thinking of asking for 9 curse speedrun categores since those would be still very doable , but speedruns with Blessed and Challenge modes would be both hard and too RNG based , normal speedrunning (especially to Lich) is already RNG enough , but having those categories would just make it worse tbh , maybe blessed but definitely not challenge mode
