NetherlandsSince Battleborn is playable again, this means that you can technically submit runs again!
However, since most of the functionality (including the main menu and the game's IGT calculation) is still missing, I have tried to figure out whatever gets closest to it.
So far, I found a method for calculating in-game time that gets close, but it is not exact.
For Main Story Geared/Gearless or any main story missions, you can calculate in-game time loosely with this website:
https://somewes.com/frame-count/
To explain this more easily I will use one of my own videos:
Set the Console Preset to Custom and the Console FPS to 60.
You can move forwards and backwards in videos per 1/5/10 frames, seconds or minutes.
Set the start frame to the first frame that your character can move. As an example, in my own Main Story Geared video, ISIC starts moving in The Algorithm on frame 40933.
Set the end frame to the first frame that the player/UI disappears when the mission is completed. In the same video, this is on frame 91974.
With this timing method, the in-game time frame counted is ~1.25-2 minutes slower than what the game used when servers were online.
This does not work with Operations. I am still trying to figure out how to calculate that.
If you submit any runs, I'll double check with frame counting.
I hope this helps!
Good post!
I believe the Medic is used for a few reasons, including the health regen for more survivability. Also, for some reason they gave the FAMAS a LOT of ammo and the damage/accuracy is surprisingly high.
I'd like to try a run with sniper to see how that goes but I might need more practice first.
Thanks to the incredible work of gwog and several other contributors, Battleborn PvE missions and Operations are playable again!
Please note, however, that submitting new runs to the leaderboards is difficult at the moment because of these limitations (at the time of writing):
- PvE Co-Op does not work;
- PvP (Online or bots) does not work;
- The main menu and loot aren't implemented yet;
- IGT isn't shown yet (And I still don't know how the game calculates it..)
Who knows, maybe they will re-implement these things in the future.

Hi! I've heard in the current WR (darksmoke's run) for Mordecai iny% that there's an Out of Bounds trick for Trash Coast. Is there a video of it somewhere showing the trick? Thanks!
There's a glitch in the Doom Fire challenge, where you will spawn as the One Man Army with snipers (instead of a flamethrower). This is just RNG though, as you would need to be assigned the One Man Army right before respawning, and the enemy must die to the fire damage over time OR their own damage, AND you need to be lucky that it chooses you.
Not very useful, because it's a lot of RNG, but small timesave in Challenge runs.
There used to be an option to replay the intro at any time from the level select menu, but they changed it in 2022(?)
I've tried a run with / without the intro back when this change was implemented, and I think we just run without the intro now.
Running with the intro loses you a LOT of time, because you keep unlocking outfits and items.
Where does the passive/killstreak get equipped? I notice the killstreak is used, but maybe I missed it somewhere in the video.
The only difference I've noticed so far with Online vs offline, is that other players (and the replay ghost) can knock away the dog, if you're doing Buddy Mode levels. Keep that in mind, I guess!
Hello! I'm considering on learning/running this game. I'll be running this through the Snes9x GX emulator that can be installed on the Nintendo Wii. This is a SNES emulator based off of SNES9x version 1.53. I noticed that 1.43 and lower aren't allowed. What about this version? Is it fine?
Hello. I am looking to make some category-related guides, but am not sure if I should include tips and tricks for certain race tracks, or keep it to which characters you need to select. I'm hoping that others have some ideas, that will make the Guides I have in mind even better.
Make sure to let me know!
