One strategy that we use that cannot be seen in a PS4 recording is something called Ship Animation Skip, or SAS. It saves approximately 40 seconds by skipping the ship landing animation on Nebula G34, Aridia, Gaspar, Rilgar, and Batalia. The trick isn't complicated, but the PS4 will not record it since it requires the use of the PS Menu.

1. Hold the PS Button when one of the aforementioned SAS planets is loading.
2. Select "Sound/Devices".
3. Go to "Turn Off Device".
4. Turn off your controller.
5. Press the PS Button when the splash screen fades to black and the ship landing animation begins. The controller will reconnect and the pause menu will open.
6. Change the game's difficulty and, for all categories that can use it, turn "Fast" mode back on.
