Ok so I think I can get back to top 5 if I have a better understanding of how this works. I understand that people are pausing after getting a lightning fast glance at the puzzle and get the solutions so they can input them asap. But where are they getting that precise info? Are they just writing the possible outcomes down before the run and checking which one it is? Can someone help me out with that? Also I'm seeing pauses to seemingly make certain events happen faster, such as the zombie that burts through the door early on and I think I even saw one after you pick up the spade key when you hear a zombie make a noise. Would someone be kind enough to walk me/everyone through this? Break it down or something? I'm convinced this is the biggest thing stopping my times from being better atm (current PB is 7th at 53 mins on ng+) lol thank you so much in advance!

It's looking like damage is directly tied to FPS which lends a clear advantage with the knife but my PC simply cant handle that, but I still want to run this game something fierce. Do you think we could make a 60 FPS lock category? If this has already been discussed I truly apologize, I'm a little new to the site. I feel like that specific category would make sense to have, a great one to maintain the integrity and spirit of the game along side the likes of glitchless and any %. What does everyone think about this?

PS my PC isnt trash but definitely outdated so if anyone thinks they could help me find a happy medium instead of this solution I'm all ears, whatever makes the most sense! I'll post specs if need be! Thanks in advance everyone!
