Verification Files

http://v.speeddemosarchive.com/AlienSwarm-20150823/

Please refer to the Verification Guidelines before posting.

Please post your opinions about the run and be certain to conclude your post with a verdict (Accept/Reject). This is not a contest where the majority wins - I will judge each verification on its content. Please keep your verification brief unless you have a good reason otherwise.
Get over here!
A/V good
No cheating detected


Bay 1:04 - is a good improvement by 6 seconds over the existing run. Accept
Cargo 1:59 - Reject since it's an outdated file.
Elevator 0:56 - Insane improvement. Thanks onslaught spawns. Accept
Timor 2:49 - I'm going with reject here because new strats cut off 20 seconds on this level.
Yeah the files called Cargo are outdated by the files called Elevator, so ignore those.
Onin, I can see you have improved on at least Elevator and Timor since you uploaded these files. Are you still working on improving them further? If yes, should we put these on hold for now? If no, are you interested in bringing your fastest runs here (so not a new verification, just replacing the videos)?
I'm planning on improving them at some point in the future, but it's not a high priority for me.
Sure, no problem. If you have settled for now, do you mind sending in your fastest runs though?
I don't really want to send the badly optimized ones in. The Elevator run is just a second quicker with the same strats, while the Timor run is just the first successful run I got, no optimization at all.
These are just short videos, so I'm gonna a do a quick last-minute verification here.

A/V: good

Gameplay: The Cargo run is outdated due to a new skip, so it can be disregarded. The other runs are all of them well played. It seems like the new strat for Timor was discovered after these runs were submitted. It's good for the speedrunning of this game, but bad timing for this submission. As things stand, I would however argue that it's better to replace all three levels at once with nice improvements if the game page is anyways going be updated. I might have thought differently if Timor were the only level submitted, but that's not the case, so never mind that.

Bay - Accept
Elevator - Accept
Timor - Accept
(Cargo - obsoleted by Elevator)
Decision posted.
