New PB for Ultimate Run Single Segment. It technically isn’t submissible for WR since the game minimized to desktop mid-run, knocking out the game capture, which led to me having to close the game and reopen it. I still had my quicksave and was able to continue the run with the timer intact. Also, the Helios infolink that gives the icarus/panopticon login at the end of Area51 glitched out and didn’t play, so I technically never got those credentials. Either way, I now have new and better splits that were made on an otherwise pretty clean (and very fun) run that I can now run against. Next goal is sub 2:15:00.
Well, it’s WR in my heart. For the record, here’s the official WR (2:24:04, also by PancakeTaicho): https://www.twitch.tv/videos/202350259?t=0h0m1s
Anyways, amazing run and commentary while doing this incredibly tightly choreographed run. If you’re a fan of GDQ-style commentary then you’ll love this.
Here are the insane rules for the Ultimate Run:
- Realistic Difficulty
- Glitchless / Exploitless
- No augmentations / weapons / inventory / consumable items.
- No use of skill points, money, or bio-electrical energy.
- Doors and security terminals can be used freely, although all used door codes and logins have to be acquired legitimately in-game.
- Ultimate Run The Second adds one more rule: No use of medbots.
- Any saves loaded during the run must have been made during the run.
- A run has to be done in one recording continuous - loading save files is allowed, but the timer can no be reset to a previous state.
