I can still sprint and intim for a split second when I dash with k1189, which I thought it would be gone too,,, weird (Okay wait I just retried it, it only works on the first door in foundation? Am I doing something wrong?)
I was thinking something more outside the box, which doesn't have to be from the game like secondary objectives/he ranking system
I mostly thought of a bingo, a 5x5 board with challenges, you complete one, you check it, of you check 5 in a row you win. I have seen that in certain other games and it seems really fun, lots of possibilities, mechanics to use, etc.
I guess more categories like hammer only, and literally anything else would also be fine, right now it's basically gambling....
Right now speedrunning is kinda pointless,,, with most categories being kinda unbeatable, rng based, laggy and hard. So we might as well add more custom categories like a custom bingo where we have to get 5 stuff from the table in a row, or some sections like apu boss only. I can't really think of anything else, I barely speedrun, and my creativity isn't the best, but right now, only full level runs, are starting to get boring and there aren't many other strategies, so you gotta stick to the same one
It's small, it's hard, it's kinda speedrunable, lore wise it's pretty good until it's not. The name of the mission means two things coming together, so what I thought would happen (and what was leaked) was that we came to help nautal and Jeremy (leaked from qa tester screen share) while Jacet died in action (since Sensei really wanted to kill her). Then we fight against hoards of enemies with hammers guns etc. But what happened instead we just saw 3 dead bodies, of which only one we actually would know something about if it weren't for the leaks. The dialogues are perfect, kaskas sarcastic, pronto is probably screaming and laughing like a little kid, aradus is scared, and calar barely talks (in fact I got them all to miraheze less than half a day after the release). So many things were leaked, turrets, 2 new characters, emissary seating and he gave you two options (two different routes) to chose from and much more but it all got scrapped and changed, I really like cloakers, something new which if you make one mistake can cost you your death, on the other hand shielders suck, they are really easy to kill with certain weapons and gadgets, but with everything else they are straight up impossible to beat. It's a fun mission which introduces new stuff, but it lacks a lot. The code was really easy to find, they found it in 3 hours. The lore that it has is pretty basic, but at least we know more about a character (Kaska) that we did really know about.
now that mgc discord became read only, a speedrunning discord dedicated to hellmet wouldnt be a bad idea
