Going forward all PC Yakuza Kiwami runs will require the in game FPS counter to be shown from this point on.
Through lots of testing by the community it's been found that the HP cancelling is actually caused by high FPS. The higher your fps the more Yakuza Kiwami breaks. Therefore the next couple of days there are going to be several changes:
-
The boards will be updated to reflect a new variable - 60/240FPS. It was agreed that 240 should be the higher end of the FPS and 60FPS makes it so that the game responds in the normal way that it should (bosses regen hp, etc.)
-
All runs on PC from this point on are required to show the FPS counter. If you run exceeds 240FPS it will be automatically rejected. If you submit to 60FPS and it exceeds 60FPS then it will either be moved to 240FPS or rejected.
You do not need to download an external program to show the FPS. Yakuza Kiwami has a built in FPS counter that you can turn on in the options menu. Please use this rather than any third party ones.
This does not apply to console runs.
Switch is now an applicable category for speedrun submissions!
It follows the same rules as Console runs so please submit it with those guidelines in mind. Thank you.
