Neverhoodian Posted October 1, 2004 Posted October 1, 2004 People at the massassi.net forums have been talking quite a bit about a truly phenomenal feat. David "RandomEngy" Rickard has recently set a new record for a Jedi Knight "Speedrun," where you try to beat the game as fast as humanly possible. His time... 34 minutes and 3 seconds!!! Crazy! I can't even beat the first three levels in twenty minutes! You can find the info (and a movie!) of the speedrun here.
acdcfanbill Posted October 1, 2004 Posted October 1, 2004 nice, doesnt say what difficulty he was on tho. I've got a Quake1 speed run on nightmare that clocked in at a lil over 12 min. but in Quake its easier to setup on a per level basis, anyway, thanks for the link
Nokill Posted October 2, 2004 Posted October 2, 2004 im donwloading now but remember its not the speed its the precision
acdcfanbill Posted October 2, 2004 Posted October 2, 2004 i think you will find that the guy is pretty accurate, but nonetheless, this is a speedrun
MikeGunther1969 Posted October 3, 2004 Posted October 3, 2004 Whilw watching the speedrun video I often times found myself awestruck and baffled. The phrase "no f@#$ing way jumped from my lips on several occasions especially the level 5/6 run and the level 13 run. Hats off to this guy. It was not only fast but so many shortcuts I have never seen before, yet even known abooot (little south park tribute)
Nokill Posted October 3, 2004 Posted October 3, 2004 i also seen it and then to think its even posible to do it all 30 seconds faster only then your brain will pop in the 5th minute O.o
BawBag™ Posted October 4, 2004 Posted October 4, 2004 I've always enjoyed viewing speed-runs (last one being Metroid Prime), so I can't wait to get home and d/l this bad-boy.
MikeGunther1969 Posted October 4, 2004 Posted October 4, 2004 The one thing which blows the mind more than anything is the jump accuracy. It is truly unbelievabe. This person must do nothing else in life other than play games. I am contemplating a speedrun just for shyts and giggles, but I don't think I could break 5:00 on level 1. BTW, how does one go about recording the entire run?
Z@NARDI Posted October 28, 2005 Posted October 28, 2005 you can record it using a program called Fraps
Kurgan Posted October 28, 2005 Posted October 28, 2005 Yeah, but you may need to edit the clips together...
Boba Rhett Posted November 3, 2005 Posted November 3, 2005 Sweet. I'm going to try some speedruns! *speedruns away*
Loopster Posted November 7, 2005 Posted November 7, 2005 That is awesome. Particularly hilarious is the way he dealt with the last three Jedi. Sequencer charge, sequencer charge, sequencer charge BOOM! Brought back good memories.
