This game has certain dlc weapons that can be very p2w for speedruns. The way I see it is, there are two ways of tackling this to make it fair for everyone. Solution 1 is to allow a mutator that unlocks all the dlc weapons (downside is that consoles can't run these). Solution 2 is to disqualify any runs featuring dlc weapons.

I'm just wondering cuz that would be really cool.

If so, wouldn't that make the runs pay to win?

I know there is a heavily modified one in category extension, but it is so heavy tweaked that it no longer resembles the same gamemode. Stayin Alive is the one I am refering to. It's simply too restrictive.

In the single player run (the one I submitted), I saw that the ingame timer still continues at the ending cutscene until the train starts moving at full speed and that's when the ingame timer first stops. This is where I decided to put my time at as it makes the most sense, tho if it was required to have time split, it would make more sense to stop the timer as soon as the cutscene at the ending starts. The second run did have time split but you can see the ingame timer at the end too and the submitted timer on the 2nd run was on when the ending cutscene started. Something is not adding up here.

Q: Can I have music in my video of the run? A: Yes.

Q: Will my run get disqualified if my audio in the video is gone? A: Yes.

If you have any questions, you can ask below as a reply to this post.

I am asking if this could be used for endless speedruns. There's an unused feature that can be easily accsessed through console commands which I have written in the "Guides" section. Instead of having a huge file size and long upload speed for people with bad connection, the demos are a good alternative for uploading endless runs due to their length. It's also good for those who have barely any space on their computer too. Unlike a mp4, a demo allows you to look at the player from different perspectives as well as where the zeds spawn, etc. It's very interactive.

I was wondering if going back to an earlier version of the game and speedrunning it in the current time is allowed since some exploits such as combo cancel (used by a controversal zerker runner here) do have a valid run still. I'm wondering out of curiosity. Technically anyone can downgrade their game to an older version.
