Astérix Speedrunning: xxl2

nekin

i agree with getting the shields before

nekin

but yeah no cutscene feels weird

alatinn

Better establishing precise rules late than never I guess

froster_xxl

I wrote this in the run: WR and best time in the Pirate Island Section. To get a better chance for the magic potion I used 6 shields at the beginning. As I didn't have a cutscene at the beginning, the run is 0.5s slower.

froster_xxl

I think when a cutscene will appear +0.5s then OK. In CP we dont have this problem, but in Pirate Island.

froster_xxl

I started with this runs because of Bakus Pirate Island run xD

Im starting timer after entering level lol, its autosplitter thing, timer activates automatically

froster_xxl

yes but you are using the time without cutscene, thats what I want to say. Hmm... lets see what the Moderators do mean about that.

baku69

I mean, for me it's whatever, i can delete run if you want x)

baku69

It's garbage anyways so

baku69

don't care about that

failentin

The thing is, the rules say time starts when you enter Pirate Island. So if you collect three shields in Pirates Island before starting the run, that would count to the time.

failentin

It would be different if you collect three shields in WCW and then enter PI for the first time.

froster_xxl

yeah I did try collect the shields in WCW. Then I checked the runs and I thought when Bakus Run on the list is verified it should be Ok. Position for the characters are the same. Hmm... this shitty cutscene. I dont know if I can be 2 times so lucky. I dont see any rules on Speedrun.com

froster_xxl

we should add that rules. Other question: Is it Ok to verify your own runs? I think every run should be checked, so we dont have this problem again.

froster_xxl

for the main categories the rules are here, but not Level%

failentin

For level% rules already exist too
