I had a few ideas for some new categories that I thought might be fun.

(1) For exfil there could be 3 new categories where you have to exfil with different amounts of money. For Solo it could be something like 15k, 30k, 60k. And in a 2 and 3 player game it could be higher. The exfil category that is up now is pointless to run and shouldn't exist. Also there shouldn't be a category for 4p because you can only spawn in with 3 players.

(2) The final mission Act 1 Extraction

(3) The final mission Act 2 Shepherd

(4) The final mission Act 4 Bad Signal

All three of these missions and the Act 3 Worm boss fight, that's already a category, should begin when you spawn into the game not at the beginning of the boss fight. Every categories timer should start when you initially spawn into the game. This is the equivalent of having the Mauer Der Toten Easter Egg begin at the boss fight.

(5) Defeating the Stormcaller

(6) Defeating the Legacy Fortress

(7) Defeating Dokkaebi

(8) Unlocking the Vault

(9) Red Worm boss fight

(10) The Easter Egg to open the Dark Aether portal, but I'm not sure if it's a one time thing so it might not work.

(11) Completing all contracts in the Dark Aether at tier 4 and 5

(12) There could be a category for contracts completed, that would be the amount of contracts you can complete in one game and exfil successfully. And there could also be one for how much money you can obtain in one game and exfil successfully.

(13) There could also be a category for the most kills in one game and one for the most mercenary kills in one game, but I think this would only work for solo because I don't think you can see everyone's stats at the end of a match.

(14) Another idea I had was to make all the categories in the game be separated by spawning in "with items" or "no items" in your bag, like in Cold War there's Classic/Rampage that divides everything and doubles the amount of categories.

(15) Entering the game with a completely wiped operator and obtaining: a 3 plate vest, large bag, killstreak, all perks and a triple PAP gun and exfiling would be fun.

(16) There could also be a large combination of these different runs put together if anyone has any ideas.

Also there's no rule against using Tombstone. It is technically part of the game but it's also a glitch that everyone has been abusing from launch. I could easily just put my tomb next to the tier 3 PAP and have a basically unbeatable time. Also receiving money from other players should not be allowed.

I played this game for a while but no categories have been added so I hope these might help improve the speedrun community for this game, thanks

Frozen like Antarctica! The mods said to pause the timer during a frozen part. This run it was like 13 seconds long.

Happens around 12:20 on my timer

If a game freezes, like on Mauer, but then comes back to life, does the frozen gameplay count or get paused?
