thanks guys I dont know why but I cant do the red zone with the new method and so my best time after it is 4:37. I have do the red zone around 200 times but it doesnt help. One time i almost finished it without the roll and freezing the soldier in 28 seconds but the left one of the last two seen me. Maybe anyone know what I do wrong

who do you mean with „not very good me? Im thousand times better than you.
Marco he is not talking about you, can we please keep this board free of pointless arguments.
Great job btw mosiac the frogs method was very good, you should keep your checkpoints secret until you reach the end of act 1.
MGS4 is a gaming masterpiece.
What does it achieve to make known your disapproval or to belittle the efforts of a Clear Game run? Cosmos' time is a great accomplishment for that category. There is still plenty of skill involved. Please recognise that

My thoughts exactly
That is my intention. My time will be revealed on the Act 1 results screen.

Sorry about the delay. It wasn't expected. Crescent Meridian went exactly how I wanted it to that very night after I had uploaded the Frogs vid. The problem arose when I began experimenting in Millennium Park. I found that my fastest attempt put me slightly outside my target time (which I only had an idea of after I had completed the Frogs) & I couldn't accept the time, lol. I really wanted to reach my target. Yesterday I tested a few new tweaks to allow me to reach my target time. An additional 4 seconds has been saved via a few slight changes. Not much, but this is just what I needed. I may be able to save a few more seconds though. I will test it furthermore later on today. If I cannot improve upon the Frogs method further then I will go about finishing Act 1 completely. Either way, you should see it completed this weekend. Naturally this means a new faster Part 2 vid will be uploaded too.
It isn't my intention to continually upload a faster version of each part. If however, I do find reasons for a faster time then a faster version will be uploaded.

@Mosaic-j
Keep up the good work, mate. Those seconds saved will be vital. For example, girogiro's 1:49:03 NG run, lol. I know he'll smash his former time after seeing those 3 seconds. I look forward to your improved methods.
Well, on another note, Cosmos finished uploading his whole run. His Liquid fight really was masterful I think. He's minimized a lot of the unnecessary dodging and spacing issues.

I only have some of NK's save points from his 1:34:59 run if that helps:
(Ground Zero) ：0:02:35
(Red Zone NW)：0:03:29 (54 secs)
RED ZONE～：0:04:01(32 secs)
MKⅡ合流後～：0:04:30 (29 secs)
(Militia Safehouse)：0:05:07 (37 secs)
(Urban Ruins)：0:06:33 (1 min 26 secs)
(Downtown)：0:07:23 (50 seconds)
(Advent Palace)：0:08:32 (1 min 9secs)
(FROGS)：0:09:27 (55 seconds)
(Advent Palace Garage):14:32 (5 min 5secs)
Millenium Park: 16:04 (1 min 32secs)
Act 1 End: 17:14 (1 min 10secs)
Cosmos savepoint at FROGS was 00:09:22 and Advent Palace Garage: 00:14:22. You can try to ask him on YouTube by private message. This way it would not seem rude for him to tell the whole world ^^;
I hope this helps! FROG battle is the most important thing to having fast time for Act 1. 8) Please follow Cosmos' advice here on how to improve Act1/FROG battle:

However, there may be a person who try CG run from now on.
Therefore, I explain about Act1.
I know that there is much room of saving time in Act1 among all Acts than my time of vid.
I explain main sections of Act1 that time is possible to be more saved than my vid's methods.
--- Act1 ---
-Downtown: You can go straight at the end of this seciton like my video in nico douga or Mosaic video .
Save time in Downtown→ "1-2seconds"
-Frog: You can considerably save times in this section.The pattern that
I explain is extremely inconsistant, but I think that you had better adopt this if you want to save time to limit.
4F: The pattern that frogs is killed by RP is faster than stunned by BB face.
3F: You can save 1-2seconds by letting Meryl say "contact" earlier.
2F: After the wall falls down, the pattern that two frogs(they jump up from 1F) won't appear may be fastest.
1F: The pattern that you stun 3rd frog(I shot thirdly her in my vid ) by BB face or she is killed by RP is fastest.
Save time in Frog→ "9-10 seconds"
-The other sections and the movie skip speed: "1-2seconds"
★ Ideal time in Act1: "16:45-48" ★

NK is another Japanese speed runner. He held the world record shortly before Cosmos completed his run. They are friends and worked with each other for NK's run. But, NK did not know about some of Cosmos' methods until later. So his time is 1:34:59. He has no videos though. Just a picture of his results screen.

Update:
I've made another change to my Frogs method to save a further 5 seconds since my last post. That's why it wasn't uploaded this weekend. In total, 9 seconds have been saved on my old part 2 vid. This also means a new target time too. I will have a few more tests on it & then upload. The vid will be up today & the link will be posted shortly.
Here it is:-
As usual, it is still processing. Quality will improve.
