Strange Vent in Facility Agent

[AgentDK]

Hi guys. I've only started speed running Goldeneye very recently and was wondering if anyone had seen this before as I don't remember ever seeing it in normal play.

When going through the vents in Facility Agent as I dropped through into the bathrooms I could see through into the ceiling into what I guess is the out of bounds area. Is this something that generally can happen. I haven't seen it in other runs.

This is just a consequence of the direction you're strafing and looking. Won't actually help you get out of bounds or anything.

hi AgentDK

Welcome to the elite and great to see that you have started to take an interest in GE speedrunning! Have you created a timespages yet?

Mw is right though, nothing out of the ordinary here, most of this stuff has been tested to death with all kinds of emulators.

Keep on looking though, crazier things have happened!

Thanks guys. Thought as much it was nothing game breaking, just wanted to see what you thought of it!

Thanks for the welcome Smit! I signed up for a times page before I made this post. Still learning my way around the levels and the strats so the world records are safe for now!

Ive actually shot a scientist or near a scientist upon what he is describing above - David Wonn and I back in the day tried tinkering with it a bit however could never replicate what I did - Essentially when you shoot while falling down in this "out of bounds" point of view in which the poster mentions actually lures the scientist to the first and second doors in the beginning without having to hit the machine in the one room - Never thought it was fast enough to make a difference in the beginning however thinking back you wouldn't have to shoot around the first staircase you go down in which just head straight for the key card guy then directly to the 2 doors (by passing the shooting and machine door opener) - It could potentially save time if the scientist is fast enough and opens the second door so you don't have too - I forget if the third door leading into the 3 guards was open or not however if so the strat could be viable if figured out - Sterling Neblett 2001 Facility Agent
