I have noticed that PC has a considerable advantage when compared to console because the base movement speed is tied to the frame rate it seems. PC runs that I have seen that run at 120fps have been moving faster than anything I had seen on console. At first I didn't consider it a huge deal but with more runs in, I believe it's a good idea to separate them.

When I make the changes, I will put all the runs into a file and make notes on their details. I will be aiming to make a PC category and a Console category. Console will have a subcategory due to the different version released on older consoles. I think the 2009 and 2016 versions are ok to be clumped together because there's no real notable differences. Aside from those changes, everything else will remain the same. Solo/co-op/new game/new game+ will still be the main variables. At a later date it may be worthwhile to add separate difficulty categories but that isn't a concern to me right now.

So just consider this a heads up in case the boards look wonky, different or I don't accept a run as quick as I normally like to. This change should happen within the next month after I've compiled all the information and relearn how to make edits without breaking the boards.

I decided to make a much needed revamp of my leaderboard (https://www.speedrun.com/marvel_ultimate_alliance_2 link in case that helps?) and after doing such; I cannot find any of the previous runs submitted.

I've tried researching fixes where I check off variables as default and whatnot but nothing seems to be working. Any assistance will be appreciated, I'm not even sure how to pull up prior runs due to the category changes now. Thank you.

Hey this could very well be nothing because I couldn't find a use as it caused the AI pathing to break/door not open to proceed but I was able to consistently get out of bounds using the method shown in both videos. Skim ahead a bit to get to the part that matters but I included the previous part as I thought it might show how it happened/help give answers but then after restarting my console and trying 6 hours later I replicated it no problems. 2 videos included.

// video 1 is initial finding, video 2 is replication. TAKEN ON PS5

I changed the timing to be on the cutscene being skipped instead of seeing Dr Doom's statue head because i felt it was a cleaner way to time it. Due to it being so miniscule I did not change or alter any previous runs. The time difference is .5-1 second max so it's not a huge deal
