Post your spanking new strat suggestions/improvements here

[DrugAgainstAngst]

I agree, why waste hours trying to figure something out which probably cant be figured out without a computer anyway? Games are designed by computers anyway. Im not a big computer guy but i dont see the big deal. I mean if there were random factors in every level you could manipulate itd be ridiculous, but a few small things...may be for the better.

I actually dont follow the videos exactly most of the time wouter. I usually use my own methods in parts unless i keep getting bad times. As for not knowing about the drones not destroying boxes..i actually thought they didnt before, but then it started to seem like they did because sometimes it seemed like they would destroy the boxes. its not like it came as a big surprise or anything, it was just something i was a bit unsure about...

Plenty more where that came from..

[flukey lukey]

fair mistake, i thought the drone could destroy the mainframes too. but now that i think about it, playing with bond invisible nothing is destroyed

Maybe it can only when you leave the room.

Caverns 00 and SA:  Objective A room, first scietist, shoot at thim while running backwards down stairs, switch to mines while on stairs, run past stairs in backwards and left strafe, stop momentarily, toss mine, continue with with forward and right strafe.

Then what?

[Matt-Cook1]

That strat isn't new. It's been known about for ages, but it's really arse cos the guy never wants to run away properly.

wtf bcks? Keep going, that's what.

[bcks]

Switch back to a gun,(if so, which)fire, or stick on mines, throw a mine before going up stairs, switch to gun(if so, which), shot to scare them going up stairs. You see, there are more strat ideas, then just keep going.

You can save at least one of the objective C scientist as shown in wouter's 1:42 so this means you can kill 1 of the objective A scientists, the first one. So this would make doing the "don't go down the stairs strat much faster" as you'd could just toss a mine straight down in full strafe to get the first obj A computers. Then in right strafe shoot some shoots at the other two scietists and throw the second mine straight down while leaving.  Or toss the first mine straight down, run down stairs, do rest as normal.  Either way your saving at least 2 seconds.

Emulators should be used to find the best way to make the Obj C scientist to run away.

lol um, yesterday's convo (it's about cav 00 being tas'ed):

WouterJ007 (10:06:49 PM): 1:33 it will be.. thats my guess
XGeOmegaX (10:07:02 PM): 1:33 sounds good
XGeOmegaX (10:07:15 PM): I'm not sure where that kind of time will be gained
WouterJ007 (10:07:59 PM): sprial, begin, picking up key from other side of boxes, throwing mine like on sa, never sacrificing speed etc
WouterJ007 (10:08:03 PM): spiral*
WouterJ007 (10:08:19 PM): also
XGeOmegaX (10:08:20 PM): yeah but still its 6 secs
WouterJ007 (10:08:29 PM): you dont have to go down before spiral I think
WouterJ007 (10:08:53 PM): kill first 2 comp with mine (kills scientist)
XGeOmegaX (10:08:53 PM): how would i do first set of comps then?
WouterJ007 (10:08:55 PM): then
WouterJ007 (10:08:59 PM): change to gun
WouterJ007 (10:09:04 PM): as soon as you get to others
WouterJ007 (10:09:08 PM): make them go
WouterJ007 (10:09:11 PM): and change to mine
WouterJ007 (10:09:16 PM): only 1 mine is needed
WouterJ007 (10:09:28 PM): lay it down
WouterJ007 (10:09:40 PM): maybe you need to sacrifice a bit of speed, but should be faster than the other way
WouterJ007 (10:09:46 PM): and much cooler
XGeOmegaX (10:09:50 PM): I guess i could try it
WouterJ007 (10:09:54 PM): would never be tried on console
WouterJ007 (10:10:32 PM): if it doesnt work out, at least you can kill first scientist and thus run by that part much faster than wr
WouterJ007 (10:10:53 PM): like throwing a mine down as you go down stairs or s
