Tomb Raider : A survivor is born

yep zydin, we're really missing somethin'.
And there's another thing to keep in mind: you've reloaded he game. Like i said to brass for his segmented run, everytime i reloaded this fight (and not got the skip in one try), the next section didn't load, even with the bar burnt.

The first time I did it I didn't reload at all. I must have done something different in the run? (second time it happened was an earlier copy of the same save) But I don't recall doing anything different.

yay for inconsistencies in the game!

I'm all for incosistencies when they work in our favor. For example, if I could get the failed rope load on the way to alex to be a failed wall load so I wouldn't have to do the skip...just once.

for ballistic

one more thing: you need to kill those guys in this order to not alert the fourth

Uhm... you don't need to kill them in that order to not alert the 4th guy but it looks like it's the most mistake forgiving order so you can be slower. I hope I'll remember it when I'm there next time thx!
But keep in mind it's like 1 second faster to shoot them from left to right instead of right left middle Wink

Just had the almost perfect run. Friendship was horrible + burning room not loading. And the river crossing jump idk how i could fail it. Some mistakes at bunker and final skip as well. But the best final battle I ever had. Now i strongly believe sub 1:53:00 is possible on a day with double rainbows and singing birds. 1:53:59.8 --> http://www.twitch.tv/theartisticballistic/c/2464049

Killing the guy in front does give you some extra time to kill the last guy, but if you're too slow the 4th guy will still show up.

Ballistic, did you try running to the end of the fire room and back to see if it would load the cutscene?

This time I haven't but I tried it before like 2-3 times and it didn't work.

hey jumb0 read back this thread a little and you'll quickly notice that pewable is well known here....

yeah, Pewable's PB is 2:09 now. dunno if he is still running or not. He said he was after I got the new record...

I think when I return I'm going to attempt to start putting in the friendship skip and Monastery skip into my SS runs. that'll save another 2 minutes on a run if I get them first try.

Also I want to continue my base segmented run so that it gets completed at least.

Pewable

2013-06-24 10:55:58 am

Yeah I really want to try to speed run this game once again but there are Alex and his half-ship, they are watching me, waiting for me to fail this stupid skip of myself. Will I put the CD on my console and play this game all over again for hours... is a mystery.

brassmaster

2013-06-24 11:50:25 am

its okay Pewable, you can't get the Alex skip, and I can't get the monastery and friendship skips regularly.

New PB 2:05:14 . Well i just runned without Stream. No lag anymore. I didn't even know that the game has this less lags. i thought the lags are ingame lol. The Lag while stream was so hard and now without lag its so awesome to play. e.g. Headshots so much easier. Rly getting motivated to get under 2:00 and its possible for me soon i think. The run was rly awesome no hard mistakes most skips first try , 2 times died. Last fight terribad but still saved time on my old run where the last fight was even more terribad Wink

Tomorrow i will format my PC and get win 7 64 bit instead of 32 bit. maybe with this (more RAM) and an "empty" pc i have no lag anymore. if still i will buy new parts better Graphic Card and Motherboard. As soon all functions i Stream and can give you an evidence ( i guess till i get rly in WR range nobody cares anyway^^)

That's a really good time! and I care what time you get, especially since that's close to my record haha. keep it up and you'll have sub 2 in no time.

Can someone try and work with this? Maybe its a way to skip the house on console. I try to find a alternative way cause the normal method with the jump is kinda random for me and i dont like random.

To get up press Melee Attack and spam jump.

Zydin

2013-06-25 08:35:44 pm

Yeah, I was able to get up there before but didn't find anything because of all the invisible walls in the area. I guess it's worth another look. Maybe I missed something.

Zydin

2013-06-25 08:41:50 pm

Ok, found a way across. Can't believe I didn't see that before. Recording now.

Yeah just wanted to upload a vid for it and say Zydin did it before me Sad

^^ on PC the other way should still be more efficient and consistent to bad cause i was so hard looking for an easier Method -.-

Cool stuff. Can you explain what he's doing? I read through the desc on youtube and I still don't know. Is he just toggling the trigger as fast as possible?
