Why no one is making a run?
no time
everyone hates this map as well
im gonna go in a min and give it a go. but i havnt tried hl2 speed running in at least 3 months, so dont expect anything under half an hour.
just had a go, and i now remember why i gave up speedrunning
I can try it again, but in two segments, because the explosion in the gas room is to random.
can you upload your savegame after the 9s. because I cant do that fucking first bit, for some reason the combine in the room with all the generators (or whatever they are?) kill me before i reach the end. however, I think I might be able to do the second part faster.
Here:http://www.hl2dq.net/uploads/883057803/p2_…arkdevil_9s.zipI know the second part was very slow, i hope you can improve it.
Im not sure if I can, I was just getting really pissed off with the first bit, only being able to do it about 1 time out of 10
Yeah, the second part is really hard and random.That part after that turret’s sucks, i can kill only one combine with the mortar, therefore i used the RPG, which’s slow.
This whole section seems really random to me, I think (only in my opinion) that we should split it, because, although it is possible to do it all in one run, its not very easy (at all) and I dont really think anyone likes this map enough to keep running it trying to get a better time. Here is a link to the run up to the part where you get the box, just before the turrets. it includes, DD’s demo of the first part, and my demo of the second part, The two runs together cut 2s off the route guide demo up to that point.I think it is best to take this savepoint and carry on from there, all the way to the end (as there isnt much more random / difficult stuff ) . This is only a suggestion, and I think the time we have for those 2 routes are pretty good, not much could be taken off.Like I said, its only an idea, let me know what you guys think.edit: the run ends with 37hp and 27 armour.
Blah you guys, I’ll try to run it in one segment if you won’t. I know it’s hard, but keep in mind that you both need more practice with the game before you can decide if it needs to be segmented or not. Cat just came back, and Dark Devil just started ;PBesides, if any maps need to be segmented, it MIGHT be the next 3 (after this one). They are each like 5+ minutes of action + teleporting, which I will probably be stuck with =/
ok ok. calm down mr. big shot . it was just a suggestion, if you can bare playing and playing until you complete it in 1 in a decent time, be my guest and gl. but i hate the damn map. <_<
OK, then make a 1 segment run.
I will try this arvo. I say that to every map, but never try I have exams this week, so nobody seems to be doing much around here this week.- Gordon
Iv completed the last segment of the 3 segments, just to see what the people who want to try and do it in 1 are aiming for. the total is 37 seconds. 9+9+19. good luck.
wow 37 seconds?can you post it?
I’m not calling myself a “bigshot”, but there is a certain element of patience and practice you HAVE to get when doing maps like these. I only brought it up because I noticed some of the newer guys (who still are talented, btw ) want to chop up maps that take them more than a few hours to get right.
DD, its just your 9s. then my 9s to the ammo crate, and I did the rest in 19s. Its nothing special. Im not going to upload it because I think someone will beat it in one. If they dont, then obviously I will upload it, Il just let Max + Pincus have a go first.Max, yeah I know what you mean, and I have very little patience, its just the way you said it last time did sound a bit, “bigshot-ish” ( :huh: ) to me.
Just to update on my progress, got a 39s demo, gonna try to lower it some.
