Post Official Speed Run Claims HERE

[Vulpex]

The page is updated. Only things missing are Kirk's and Tristan's locations. This is not a bump.

[Henning Blom]

Axel Zakrisson, not Azel  

edit:
Ah well, tried a agent speed run as well, probably going for better as most of the levels didnt work at all.

Dam - 0.56 /got stuck for a while on the last fence
Facility - 0.49 /the only good level
Runway - 0.25 /arrh, how gay, got stuck in hut
Surface 1 - 1.10 /crap crap crap, got 1.06 on a earlier attempt
Bunker 1 - 0.21 /green guards at the last door got in my way
Silo - 1.30 /noting went my way, had to open like all doors myself or wait really long for guards to open
Frigate - 0.38 /not too bad
Surface 2 - 0.56 /missed the frickin warp
Bunker 2 - 0.33 /nightmares is nothing against this one
Statue - 2.34 /quite good
Archives - 0.23 /auuh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Streets - 1.16 /0.0 boost ratio:P
Depot - 0.30 /so 29 is like real hard? no!
Train - 1.17 /46 timer fade so locks wasnt too good, or not good at all....
Jungle - 1.02 /quite good
Control - 4.33 /slowest nat escape ever!
Caverns - 1.06 meh
Cradle - 0.53 /atleast trev suicide worked, oh well

Overall = 20.52      Realtime= wtf, who cares=P

im not sure if i calculated correctly, would be good if someone could check it

[Vulpex]

Oop, sorry Axel! That was pathetic. It's fixed now.

Yep Henning, that's 20:52. Good job. I'll update again sometime. (Yes, that's like one of Come's "sometime"s)

[stan-the-man-1]

Cheers for adding me Vuplex.   And I'm from England.

I improved my agent speed run:

Dam 55 - Took 3 goes
Facility 51 -   I might have to go for 50 now...
Runway 24
Surface 1 1:08
Bunker 1 22
Silo 1:23
Frigate 40 -   Ok for a speed run I suppose
Surface 2 57  
Bunker 2 31 - Not very good
Statue 2:40 - Bad FR but I found it easily this time
Archives 19
Depot 31
Streets 1:17
Train 1:27 -   Locks were just stupidly bad
Jungle 1:25  
Control 4:34 - I thought this was a good run, I don't get this level
Caverns 1:07
Cradle 1:01 - Sucide strat worked, but I had to wait ages

I think that makes the total time 21:35. 31 secs better than last time mostly cos of control statue and frigay.

[ajbownes]

Mission Time - 22:48
Real Time - 26:16

Dam - 56. Pretty standard, slight stick at stairs
Facility - 105. Good Trev but the mine didn't blow up last tank
Runway - 25. 2:0 boost
Surface - 113. No KF7, again.
Bunker - 22.
Silo - 134. Sticks all over the place.
Frigate - 48. Bad hostages.
Surface - 59. Had to plant mine under doorway due to problems earlier
Bunker - 40. Had to go round otherway because first guard wouldn't die
Statue - 248. Bad, bad FR.
Archives - 27
Streets - 118. 1:5 boost.
Depot - 32.
Train - 139.
Jungle - 118. Had to kill Xenia with PP7 in the end.
Control - 440. Hurrendously slow Natalya exit.
Caverns - 109. Lots of sticks.
Cradle - 55. Quick suicide, had to go back to destroy terminal.

Dunno but Im really bored of levels now so I think Im gonna try for this baby for the next little bit.  Only cool thing on this run was really the 17/114 in a row, and maybe had a shot at beating ace's run, but yeah I think I can get under 20minutes.  Just play and see!

cradle - went all out and didnt kill trev
19:17 was the time at that point, needed 42 to break 20:00


That run still did feel REALLY shitty.  Statue was good and lucky, but didnt matter cause archives just went to hell.  I really think 19:30 is doable for this.

[SpiderWaffle]

if you combine all your PRs for the strats your doing don't you get something like 19:00?

So you could say 19:00 is doable but the odds aren't very good.  If you get your PR 10% of the time (generous), you'd have a .1^18 or 1*10^-18 chance of it happening.

Even if your going for your top 75% times all in one run that is only a 0.5% chance.

With this kind of math lengthy speedruns will be far from perfect virutally everytime.

[Wouter Jansen]

simply comparing to tas you can realise the same thing

20:23

FUCKING HELL

[Wouter Jansen]

sure you lost 407 if you were really planning to gamble on a quite uncommon (I think?) 17 nat this far into a speedrun..
to be safe, it's more likely that it woulda been 410. tho I rly dont know how shitty you need to play to lose 18 sec in the ending there.. rofltops

[Troublesome Moral Code]

The following post is by Quentin Meunier (silver angel) who asked me to post it for him because he can't post it himself for... Reasons unknown. Here goes!  

---

I had begun to try to complete a 00 speedrun last year, from what I could get only many runs with a fail on only one mission, thus never getting my complete run.
I continued this afternoon, and just like your runs always complete when you had major stucks, I completed a run this afternoon, whereas I hadn't played most of the levels for a long time. As you can imagine, many times are horrible (I mean, look at the Runway time),  so this is more to consider as a "complete 00 run" than a "complete 00 speedrun".

Dam : 2'34
Facility : 1'52
Runway : 1'03
Surface 1 : 2'09
Bunker 1 : 2'12
Silo : 3'40
Frigate : 1'46
Surface 2 : 2'09
Bunker 2 : 3'41
Statue : 2'42
Archives : 1'09
Streets : 2'07
Depot : 1'48
Train : 4'31
Jungle : 1'52
Control : 7'13
Caverns : 8'05
Cradle : 3'21
Aztec : 7'07
Egyptian : 1'15
Total Mission time: 1:02:16

It wasn't taped so I don't know the real time, but I guess that's not a big deal  
I will probably go for better, as you can imagine...at least break this 1 hour barrier :-)

Last thing, I had begun to keep some "funny" endings while doing this last year. I intended to put them at the end of the video of the complete speedrun, but as I don't know if there will be one, here they are: quentin.meunier.free.fr/00_endings.wmv

[vitor]

damn, the video aehuiaehiueheuiuieaia, nice archives

-Narigutita

[SpiderWaffle]

I think if Boss, Illu, Ryan White, or Ryan I. put in 10-20 hours they would get a sub 20 minute run.

[bcks]

That train one was werid, anybody know why ourmov jumped the gun?

[Troublesome Moral Code]

The only way Ouromov would ever, ever shoot before he's programmed to is if Bond leaves the room even if he's looking in that direction. In this case, SA entered the room give or take an inch of the line between the "border" of the two rooms, then backed out (across this "border") and triggered ouromov's action to shoot nat and fail the mission.

I still laughed, but that's what happened.

[DYM]

Did Agent 19:53 and 00 Agent 42:27. Forgot the details of the runs but will post them later.

[Cervone]

He will have every record in the game some day. Normal mode, LTK, speed runs, turbo, etc.

[Thiradell]

Dam: 1:00 Stupid security gates.
Facility: 0:56 Good Trev saved a sucky run.
Runway: 0:25 Meh.
Surface 1: 1:12 Probably my worst Agent level.
Bunker 1: 0:23 Miserable ending.
Silo: 1:20 Good.
Frigate: 0:38
Surface 2: 0:57 Fine.
Bunker 2: 0:31 Fine.
Statue: 2:33 Decent.
Archives: 0:24 Bad.
Streets: 1:16 0:0.
Depot: 0:29 Solid.
Train: 1:30 38 fadeout, meh.
Jungle: 1:12 Used AR33 for first three drones, fine.
Control: 4:21 Waited about five seconds for Natalya, didn't blow glass, good.
Caverns: 1:09 Sucks.
Cradle: 1:23 Terrible.

Mission Time: 21:39
Real Time: 24:56

Might try SA.

[Boss]

He's a robot, and he's only 12.  I agree with Dan.

[SpiderWaffle]

submit those runs to SDA and get the videos up please!!

[Cyberwrath87]

Ace, it'd be great if you record the 00A run or something and either put it on youtube or ngamers server. I think a lot of people would love to see it.

[Illu]

I can help you to get your run up on SDA if you want Ace, I think it should go there.

[D N Clemens]

I am not sure on a few of these times, but most i am sure of. This was an Agent speedrun.

Dam- 55
Facility - 47 (good trev)
Runway - 24
Surface 1 - 106 (missed ladder warp, sniper)
Bunker 1 - 25 (worst @#%$ run ever)
Silo- 109
Frigate- 31
Surface 2- 56 (no warp)
Bunker 2 - 29
Statue - 231
Archives - 18
Streets -116
Depot - 29
Train - 125(guard @#%$ me over when i was doing the locks)
Jungle-109 (@#%$ mine throws, also missed ladder warp)
Control 413
Caverns 108 (piece of @#%$)
Cradle -50 (got trev to go to the platform, was pretty happy with this)

Mission time - 20:00

Again, i forgot a few of the times so i posted them as i remember them , a few might be off...but I am 100% sure my mission time was 20:00.

[SpiderWaffle]

That's a nice run. only 7 seconds behind the great I..  Had it not been for that guard on train you would have beat him.

The agent record run should go up on SDA too, they do runs of different difficulties.

Once you get the videos hosted somewhere, AIM message mikwuyma with the link, and he needs a text file with the name of the game, difficulty, and your comments.  Comments can be very brief but it'd be nice if you said a little something about each level.

This is the page which talks about submissions, it isn't very concise.

[stan-the-man-1]

00 agent speedrun

Dam 2:24 - sucks but only 4 secs off my PR
Facility 1:07 - probably the best time of the speedrun
Runway 0:55
Surface 1 2:04
Bunker 1 1:26 - not bad
Silo 3:22
Frigate 1:41
Surface 2:06 -  i never play this level
Bunker 2 3:18 - could have been much better
Statue 2:49 - pfft gay FR, oh well
Archives - 1:10
Streets 2:13 - got BA
Depot 1:14 - pretty good
Train 3:55 - killed every guard
Jungle 3:50 -  I never play this level either
Control 6:14 -  control sucks. well, I suck at control.
Caverns 5:31 - pretty much exactly what I was aiming for
Cradle 0:52  
Aztec 4:50 - nearly died
Egypt 1:24 -  such a slow first baron death

I can't really be arsed to add up the total time at the moment, I'll do that later. But I was aiming for under an hour so hopefuly it will be

[mrsooreams]

It's 52:25, so congratulations.

[Wouter Jansen]

assuming he didn't die or quit any runs

[stan-the-man-1]

Thanks   I'm quite pleased with that. And no I didn't die or anything. This was the first time i've completed it without dying or quitting out.

[DYM]

Agent - 19:36 (about 10 days ago)

Dam 0:55
Facility 0:49 - had a few stucks, bad trev
Runway 0:24 - stuck at the start might have cost me 23
Surface 1 1:06 - didn't watch the cinema so I probably took a bad strafe line
Bunker 1 0:23 - huge stuck at the last guard cost me 18 or 19
Silo 1:08 - decent run, just had a few stucks in the middle.
Frigate 0:48 - waited about 5-10 more seconds for the hostages.
Surface 2 0:55 - normal for me
Bunker 2 0:26 - watched the cinema, decent run
Statue 2:29 - good FR.
Archives 0:19 - was safe at Nat part.
Streets 1:16 - 4:3, bad strafing
Depot 0:28 - safe trainshot, bad strafing again
Train 1:12 - was slow to open a couple of doors, bad locks
Jungle 0:58 - not bad
Control 4:08 - slow glass, got BA.
Caverns 1:06 - Bad ratio and a few stucks.
Cradle 0:46 - platform strat

I can do much better than this as It took only 2 tries.

[Wouter Jansen]

that's still pretty good =)

[Illu]

I guess about half of those times are really nice, I guess Facility, Silo, Control and Jungle are about as good as you could hope for, 1:12 train too really even though you've gotten even lower on first try.

Pretty bad luck there on Frigate and Cradle sucks a bit but it's hard for Cradle to get lower without doing a really risky strat though things like Runway 24 doesn't matter even though mostly you get 23. It's hard to point out any really bad time actually. Maybe 20 sec could be easily saved on Cradle and Frigate but other than those you just had a few like archives 19 that doesn't look very good but 17 wouldn't help much, just 2 sec really even though 19 looks bad

Well congrats!

[Time was untied when set.]

I had a run with stuff like dam 54, facility 46 , surface 103, but Frigate got me 112 lol, ended up pumping everything, got train 108 (!), but then died on Jungle or something funny.

I guess Ill give this another shot tonight.

[TheGreatMax]

Oh yeah, how about a 00 agent single segment run.  Yes, I'm the slowest at it when you compare me to the others people who did it, but what can you say when only six others or a handful have ever done it.

Untaped and slow, almost died on surface one and control.  I'll tally the total time.

I have another idea and I want to be the first to do it.

[Wouter Jansen]

sorry, but people had sex with goats before you even thought of it

[SpiderWaffle]

Be the first to do a full game DLTK single segment run max!!  It might be the first speedrun that takes over 24 hours.

[Time was untied when set.]

Did this a while ago.

[Soft-Hedwig]

Shame about Caverns/Cradle on your run, Dave, that looks like it could've been 19:20ish.

[Time was untied when set.]

Yeah...caverns i got stuck behind trev for a good 4-5 secs at the start, and Cradle i just goofed the trev shot up in the hut and had to kill him in the 3rd spot lol.

[Vulpex]

Wow, I really need to update the page again. Next week, I promise. Well done everyone, especially Ace and DAA!!! I finally had an Agent speedrun where everything just went right ... mostly ... well kind of.

My GE Agent Run Breakdown:
Dam 0:57 Not my best strafing.
Fac 0:54 Trev ordinary.
Run 0:24
Su1 1:08
Bu1 0:20
Sil 1:17
Fri 0:46 Just ... gah.
Su2 0:57
Bu2 0:30
Sta 2:35 I was lucky with the recorder this time.
Arc 0:20 Stuckage.
Str 1:18 Not so hot; 4:4.
Dep 0:28
Tra 1:27
Jun 1:12 Crap from beginning to end.
Con 4:18 w00t!
Cav 1:09 More stuckage, gay Trev.
Cra 0:52 Lucky
MT: 20:52
RT: 23:54

Apart from Friggit, Train and Jungle which could have been a fair bit better, this run is just about beyond complaint. Certainly Silo, Statue, Control and Cradle could so easily've been worse. It's shocking to think Ace can knock 80 seconds off this.

[Vulpex]

The page is updated; go Rayan!

[Illu]

agent 20:23 - this is actually 12 sec faster than my previous best

dam 54 - wow this run was good, almost thought I'd do 53
fac 50 - awesome not practised much in ages and bad trev too
run 24 - could have easily lost like 4 sec on running straight into the first nade blow but managed to get trough
s 105 - I'm on fire!
B 23 - or maybe not that much, ah crap just an random level
silo 116 - wow this is decent for me on this sick level
frig 44 - normal not very good hostage luck, not horrible but not really acceptable for an really good run
s 56 - thought this was enough for 55, heh might just do safe 56 instead since 55 isn't that easy
b2 29 - this is alright, kinda easy but acceptable time
stat 239 - nah that fr wasn't that nice
Arch 20 - lucky to get even 20 on this piece of a shit run, but it's not like I lost more than a sec really, can't expect faster than 17 really
streets 116 - boring
d 30 - missed ts
train 116 - alright for ntsc lol
jungle 100 - woohoo! I would have done like 56 on PAL though
cont 417 - pure trash
caverns 114 - yea, lets just forget this already
Cradle 50 - this too, my crappy atempt to make up for all the lost time with a wr

wow ehh yea that was something

Should maybe try one with Aztec and egypt included

[speedruntrainer]

Agent 23:00 (not taped) still very sucky though. to get it taped i must get a memory stick with at least 1GB in size. my previous Agent run (23:11) was 532 MB i compressed it down to 100MB instead of 70. 100 was good though.

Now my sucky Agent run of 23:00MT

Dam 0:55, no strafing lock.
Facility 1:01 sucky run bad Trev, not boosted by 1st Remote mine
Runway 0:24. don't have comments about this. missed a few grenade boosts that's all
Surface 1 1:12 missed warp bad strafing
Bunker 1 0:21 guards got in my way, good warp
silo 1:24
Frigate 0:42 Hostages slow.
Surface 2 0:57 missed warp bad strafing, its hard to get a 56 no warp though
Bunker 2 0:33 oooh crap :/
Statue 2:56 =/
Archives 0:22 :/
streets 1:17 looks normal. guards backboosted me at the end.
Depot 0:30 TS failed
Train 1:45 lots of stucks. in the beginning boxes sucks, am I right Rayan?
jungle 1:30 did not remote mine strat. i not found Illu there yet
control 5:03 it sucks
caverns 1:14 guards in the biginning go in my way, a few stucks and 0:3
cradle 0:54 fought Trev @ end

MT: 23:00
RT:???

[Illu]

Agent

Dam 0:55 - weee!
Facility 0:50 - yesss!
Runway 0:24 - yay!
S1 1:07 - looks ugly but don't get better than 105 usually
B1 0:22 - oh well still going strong overall, this is kinda ok anyway really
Silo 1:13 - omfg YESSS!!! lol but damn yea
Frigate 0:44 - kinda sucky heh but yea but eh
S2 0:55 -
B2 0:29 - alright!
Statue 2:31 - damn yeah!
Arch 0:19 -
Streets 1:16 -
Depot 0:30 - haha
Train 1:16 - oh well, should get better on PAL but
Jungle 1:03 - Didn't get wr because some drone sucked
Control 4:13 - BLAAAAHHH, nah it's ok but should maybe try for wr
Cavs 1:06 - I don't seem to remember people getting much better on this lol damn trev
Cradle 0:45 - this is nice suicide, if no stuck at end maybe I'd had pr with this strat, I think it's maybe 44 43 haha

Combined mission time: 19:58

Sub 20 yeaaahhh!!! hmm behind Clem and Ace with this time I guess

I guess I'll make vid, what's fastest vid available? Probably Ace has made some, dunno if there's vid of his wr: 19:33?

[DYM]

The fastest I've done on video is 19:36... I didn't realise I was capturing on the 19:33 until I started cradle

[Illu]

Secret Agent 34:36 (ntsc)

This actually beats the best time by Ace.. by... 5sec   but I knew the SA record wasn't that strong, I had a horrible barely sub 5 min Aztec (was going for around 3min with Jaws strat) I literaly blew the run in the beginning by losing almost all health in a nade explotion, I went for the glass strat after that instead but it didn't open. After that I got into more trouble even after I got BA, mostly because I was careless, at the end I was happy I even survived.

Though it was one of my coolest survives maybe, my knowledge of the levels and all that makes me a bit careless sometimes since I often know when I need to start being more careful if things go to hell and I know lots of alternate strats.

But yea this record is still kinda weak, sub 30 could happen someday though I don't like to speculate too much but to just do my best and see where the clock stops, I'm probably gonna try lowering this again.

[TheGreatMax]

A DLTK single segment is nearly out of the question but not impossible.  First dam takes 20-30m average and then  you get two easy levels but Surface One will get you most of the time.  If you did get luck there and get to through Bunker One, Silo will certainly get anyone since it hasn't been beaten.  Should take 3-5 hours if you're fast.  No longer than 10 at slowest but it depends.  The third row is horrifying.

LTK is more likely.  Surface One still a problem.  Streets is challenging too.  Should take only 1-2 hours if you're fast.  No longer than 5 at slowest but it depends.

007 levels have a required time limit.  Silo, Bunker Two, Statue, Streets, Train, Cradle, and Aztec.  And four of the seven are unbeaten.
