Frontpage Catchup – The Month of INSANITY
“Insane.” “Epic.” “Amazing.” These are words that get thrown around gaming communities all the time in hyperbole and over exaggeration. But if anything, what's happened recently in the elite is beyond these few words.
Briefly, let's take a look:
April 27 - In the fluke that would change the world, Squrpion hits the Depot Warp. This was a TAS-only strategy that had been known about since at least 2010. It had been attempted in the thousands of times on console, but no one ever hit it, until Squrpion did. This would change the entire landscape of not only Depot Agent, but the Depot leaderboards and WR tables as we know it... forever.
- Later that night, Ryan Koch is the first to use the new strategy to execute an untied WR in Depot Agent 0:24. His first career untied, and a fitting one. It is however shortly thereafter tied by Daniel “Wodahs” Coelho.
April 28 - The race for 0:23 goes on and Sir Phillip Bezgoubov becomes the first player to achieve what used to be considered the “TAS-only” time, tying Miika Pekkala's TAS run from 2010. It is his first untied WR and the defining record for his young and promising career. 0:23 however is tied shortly thereafter by another strong newcomer; Sammy Rodrigues.
April 28 - Icyspeedruns posts his first untied WR, MBR Agent 1:18. This breaks Boss' untied sweep which stood, untouched since 2008. That's not all however, as he used a newly discovered strategy which involves pushing Cassandra to a ladder which she climbs to escape; rather than pushing her up the building traditionally. This leads to a total onslaught of the level, where Mouserscribe, RWhiteGoose, speedruntrainer and Axel Z all post their first untieds until finally, Boss and Karl stabilize with solid new records with the new strategy. The 1:31:00 barrier falls and PD's total time melts deep into the 1:30s.
May 6 - A further improvement to the MBR strategy is discovered, involving clipping out of the building after Cassandra escapes, returning to the lift in the basement with the Skedar Bomb and shooting it, thus triggering the end of the level. The trick is discovered by Trent H, who however is unable to prove any untied WRs using it. Karl and Boss swap WRs more than a dozen times, and the records currently stand at 54/55/1:02 (from 1:19/1:21/1:26!) The PD total time crushes the 1:30:00 barrier and is well into the 1:29 range.
- Another series of clips are found in the Datadyne building, lowering the Defection SA time from 0:31 to 0:19 through Henrik, Illu, Ace and finally Karl (May 23.)
May 22 - Karl's prowess in falling through the Datadyne building allows him to casually cake Defection Agent 0:05, becoming the first to tie one of the most legendary untieds ever set by Illu in 2010.
May 10 - Yet another warp is discovered by Icy; this time on Pelagic II. A quicker route to the ending is possible on Agent, leading to 4 seconds cut from the 0:46 WR. The record stands at 0:42 by Clemens and Mouserscribe, with lower believed possible.
- Another new innovation is developed involving throwing explosives. It is discovered that if you R-Lean while throwing, the distance thrown can be outrageous. Randy Buikema, dual champion in 2002, who has returned getting multiple new WRs, gets his first untied Wrs since 2002 with Surface 2 Agent 0:47 (May 11) and Surface 2 Secret Agent 0:48 (May 17.) The 47 is tied by Luke Szklarz, but the 0:48 remains untied.
May 18 - Wodahs cracks into the Top 10 in Goldeneye, even with a 0 point, Aztec 00 Agent 6:00 time on his timespage. He becomes the most recent member of the-elite to break into the Top 10 in Goldeneye, having joined in 2012. The previous holder of this distinction was Marc R. who joined in 2009. There is little telling how high Wodahs can peak, having recently posted true Top 10 only WRs such as Depot 00 Agent 0:47 and Facility Agent 0:43.
Things sure have heated up at the-elite, rife with activity and action. In the 2nd year with no summer contest, there is no shortage of ongoing events and fun to be had. There is discussion on a second Fantasy League, this time incorporating Perfect Dark (which hasn't been this active since at least 2004!) and a competitive eSports team, beginning with Splatoon's release on May 29th. Be sure to sign up and follow the forum as that remains the main portal for discussion and activity; and of course watch Twitch streams from all the Goldeneye & Perfect Dark players on the site!
Wishing you the best in your adventures,
Ryan “RWhiteGoose” White
