For the very few times you might be in need of beating down an Android just press peek as the longer death animation starts to get out of it and move on.

Also I think I found a very fast way to get into the "extended" camera mode that you would usually need a torch panel to get into. I'll be uploading the video shortly... this should be open even more ways to skip areas....

Looks like Info was on to something. Me and Twitchy were testing some stuff and ¤Flopped¤ through door...this was my first time doing it so I just reacted and kept going...just like info tested the game just moved along, even without Verlaine's announcement.

After some testing all it takes is to run straight to door and strife with the left stick to the right...and worked every time. You have to meet the Alien in the vent, but no big issue...if you molly the Alien at the section before the jump you can avoid the encounter all together...but that seems like overkill.

I was really excited to finally give something pretty useful to the overall community but Metzix and Twitchy tested it and the Alien is actually to fast on PC. So this might actually be a PS4 exclusive??

Anyone else want to try? It "seems" possible but nothing else to do to make it work for PC....

Hopefully its not a PS4 exclusive as Twitchy was only able to truly get it maybe half the time. Can anyone else test it for results?

So the idea behind the strat is to ignite a flare at the 3rd flight of stairs up, drop flare at yellow box, psycho run as usual, stay to the right end of stairs during psychorun to stay out of line of sight from Alien, Hack Elevator (close as possible, toward left side)...the Alien will go to dropped flare leaving you safe.

Twitchy was testing it and the weakness was the human pattern as usual. The moment you light the flare seems to affect this which is why it was inconsistent with him. Light it right at the beginning of the third flight of stairs seems to consistently give the "safe" pattern for this strat which Alien tackling near elevator. Even if pattern is different you can still deal and as long as the flare is already lit before the large doors you shouldn't ever get the slow walking lady pattern.

Does this make any sense?? Seems at best it can be a faster time and keep you safe. Here is the vid:

Not being able to psychorun on consoles could be holding some folks back from trying to speedrun this game (it did for me) so I made a video with a focus on the controller. Forward it to anyone you know that wants try it. I also exported to you tube for those out of the community looking for help.
