most of you saw my 1:49 Villa PA and 1:31 Af1 PA, but here's a new one:

1:48 Villa PA

Hehe, this should get Paragon back into things for a bit :)

1:31 Investigation Agent (on tape).  Yeehaw! (too many people say booya and I like to pretend I'm from Texas). The lasers were completely gone at 49.5, I was through the 2nd door at 1:02 flat, connection established 1:07.75 and the final time was 1:31.81.  I even bumped into the laser and lost maybe .3 seconds.  I'm sure 1:30 is possible.

Darklight,
I must have a lucky cartridge or something.  I had a 1:32, 1:33, and 1:31 all within about 30 minutes of playing investigation.  I wonder if something like this could vary from cartridge to cartridge.  If you lived near me I'd let you play my game and you'd have a 1:32 in under an hour probably.  If only I could get that damn 2:18 on SA.

yeah it must be varying, cause no one's that unlucky dl. haha. It took me 2 hours in one sitting to get 1:32, but before that, I never had the opportunity to get better than 1:34

Er, there's a much simpler explanation.  Like many of the random events in PD, the Investigation robot probably depends on some variables that are completely non-obvious.  In other words, something in DarkLight's method of doing the level makes the robot go slower; and it could be very specific and seem totally unrelated.  That's one of the problems with going for PD times.

Other examples are things like the President in Crash Site (some methods of going to the UFO after rescuing him make him go consistently faster)... the technician in Rescue Agent (there's no reason for the updated strategy to make him appear there more often, but he does!)... the bridge in Attack Ship (what the hell IS it about that strategy that makes the bridge sequence go 20 seconds faster?)... the list goes on.

DarkLight, I recommend you shake up your routine a little.  If you take your time placing the CamSpy, don't; if you don't, do.  Try walking slowly down the experiments hall instead of dashing to the robot.  Try arriving early and late for the robot.  Anything could work.  I seem to recall that opening doors for the robot did NOT get me better times in general, so try not doing that.

Then again, considering I haven't played in months, my advice may not be worth much. :)

No, what's the Rescue thingy? I remember getting too pissed off because of that technician and quit with a 1:41, though I could do much better

the rescue thing is waiting til joe says something like "Doesn't sound like a problem", then calling the elevator back, and the technician is there a lot.

I stop the cinema at "by the way" too, on all difficulties except PA. When i get to the second elevator it always just begins to open. Anyway, thanks for all the Investigation-A  help guys. Most of the time i just rush to the bot as fast as my feet can carry me, but ill try to take it nice and slow. I hope it works, i really need these 12+ points :( . But i know my luck is horrible. If i dont get 1:32 soon, ill just rush out and rent a copy and see if that works. I hope i can post here tomorrow saying "WOW! 1:30-1:31 inves a-on tape!", but i doubt that will ever happen :( . Thanks again though!

Rent a game, DarkLight? Are you sure? You'd have to beat Defection Agent again...

You edited your cruel post i see :) . It didnt really even bother me, i thought it was slightly funny, because i know i do suck terribly at stupid PD. I should just quit, and i will soon. Damn PD sucks too much. Stupid PD. *cries* Ah well.

what's the longest time you ever sat down to play?
I had a 1:36 for like ever, but then I just sat down I was like "I'm getting 1:35", then I did on a bad run (by me, no caspy trick workingness) so I wnet for 1:34, and I just ended up with that damn 1:32.05

I have been playing over 2 hours and i still havent had the lasers down before :53 :(

How often does everyopne get the lasers down at around :50?

Someone needs to put up a vid of 1:31 or 1:32, I think PrimeNumber said it was on tape

I definitely agree with snap with the random event thingy. I used to always do one thing, but then I switched it up and started copying mostly the way that pdsky did it, and the bot was like 1/50 times getting there really fast, and about 1/5 of the time at like 52.

hehe, thanks Cck.  I'm lost on MBR PA.  You have to wait 3-4 seconds for the second elevator.  1:45 was really sweet.  I dunno what's up with 1:41.  Is there any trick I'm missing?  and yes, I do use the bombspy.

I wish I'd known about the Rescue thing earlier...

About Investigation: Darkhawk, 2 hours of playing and no lasers down before 53? That's insane. I usually get 54, but I get 52 or 51 about once every 20 minutes. I get 50 or 49 about... well, ehm... never ;)

I wish this level didn't exist.

I've played investigation Agent for a total of around 24 hours.  I've had the lasers down at 51 three times.  THAT'S INSANE

The way I check my times is when the bot gets to that last door before the lasers.  I had a time of 45.3 once.

when you say lasers, is that when they start to go down, or when they are done going down?  I'd like to get an average on my game, because it seems as if this level varies from console to console putting some at major disadvantages

Here you go Falcon!!!!!!!

1:40 MBR PA!!!

This is one bitch of a level.  It's a good thing Paragon told me what I was doing wrong.  You have to blow up the camspy after the chick appears.  Saves like 3-4 seconds.

Here I go? I was 11 seconds off the record... oh well, thanks I guess ;)

By the way... 24 hours? That is indeed insane. I've probably played for a total of 6 hours, and I think I had the lasers down at 50 twice

I wouldn't be pissed if you got 29 SA.  I don't care about Chicago anymore.  Why don't you play Perfect Dark and actually get 29 SA?:p   Or at least improve some of your times, instead of posting dumb posts like this.
