Hey everyone,
I noticed a large influx of runs in GtG and even AoZ and it's super cool to see all you new runners coming and giving this game a chance!! If you guys were curious about platforms to run on, I'll break it down
-
Console: PAL load times are significantly faster than NTSC & JPN
-
EMU: load times are the same across all regions
-
NTSC runs at 60fps while PAL runs at 50fps, making it quicker to run ILs on NTSC (America)
-
Console runs are best run on the PAL version on the PS3 shop
-
The "Fast Achille" strategy is only possible on PAL, never tested on JPN, but not possible on NTSC.
TLDR:
If you want to run ILs it's best to use NTSC EMU for all levels except Achille (run on PAL EMU)
If you want to run Any% on Console, it's best to run on the PAL version on PS3
If you want to run on Any% on EMU, it SHOULD still be faster to run on PAL even though the game is a bit slower, because fast Achille saves a lot of time, needs more testing however.
