There are conditions for using emotes to skip dialogues. (We assume that the dialog refers to a wireless call.)
If you use a certain emote (e.g. Ohhhhhh!) twice in a row with more than 14 NPCs in tow, you can skip the dialog. If the number of NPCs increases, the dialog can be skipped even if only one emote is used. (The exact number of NPCs has not been investigated yet.)
I have tested this on my PC version and confirmed that it is possible with both Japanese and English voices.
As for the other agenda items, I think it makes sense for the moderators to answer, so please do so.
Thank you for the addition to the rules. By the way, is there any reason why you did not add Pale Wing as a category or variable? The current leaderboard does not allow posting of records by character used, so only the record for the fastest combination of runs will remain on the leaderboard. This is a personal request, but it would be easier to look back on the leaderboard and motivate me to keep track of each character, so I would really appreciate it if you could make it a category or variable.
I have a question about "Difficulty: Multiple" in the New Game category that has just come to my attention. Do you allow the selection of Hardest, Inferno for the difficulty level? In EDF5, if you use a saved data that has at least one clear data, you will be able to select Hardest, Inferno from mission 1 from new data thereafter. So, for example, you can select Inferno for Mission 1, drop a level 40 weapon, and then use a strategy such as Easy for subsequent difficulty levels. On the other hand, if you have no clear data in your saved data, you can only select difficulty up to Hardest, which is unfair. (I know this is a somewhat unrealistic case, but I think it would be better to clearly state this as a rule so as not to raise any red flags.)

New Gameカテゴリにおける「難易度：Multiple」について、今さら気になった点が出てきたので質問します。難易度にHardest, Infernoを選択することを許可しますか？ EDF5はクリアデータが1つでもあるセーブデータを使用する場合、以降の新規データからはミッション1からHardest, Infernoを選択できるようになります。なので、例えばミッション1でInfernoを選択し、レベル40相当の武器をドロップしてから以降の難易度はEasy等で攻略するという戦略を使用することができます。逆に、クリアデータが1つもないセーブデータだと難易度はHardまでしか選択できないため、不公平な点が生じてしまいます。 (そもそもクリアデータを持っていない人がスピードランに挑戦するのかという、いささか非現実的なケースを持ち出してしまいましたが、ルールとして明示しておいた方が角が立たないかと思います)
For the PORTABLE VERSION category, I would like to request the addition of a "character class" to the record submission element. In the PSVita and Switch versions, "Pale Wing" is available. Currently, there is no "Character Class" in the record submission element, so some users may be wondering how to submit records of Pale Wing alone or in combination with land combat soldiers. Could you please add the element?
We believe there is a deficiency in the "View rules" category below. Please correct it, moderators.
[General] ・There is a category where the section from the start of the measurement to the end of the measurement is not listed. Could you please describe it?
・The PORTABLE VERSION category is all 60 missions, not all 53. Please correct.
[All Missions]. ・Regarding the first and second items, isn't it a contradiction that the running itself is stated to be done on Normal, but the weapon collection, etc. is stated to be done on any difficulty level?
[All Missions NG+] ・The third point says "can be completed on any difficulty", but I don't see anything in the record submission that is so-called "multiple" difficulty (e.g., play on Easy for certain missions and Normal for others). Is there any plan to add this in the future?
Thanks for your response, Scratchag! I have prepared a video recording of the run on the Nintendos version the other day and will post it now.
I would like to try a speedrun of this game, but I have a few questions.
(1) The only version I own is the Nintendo Switch version, is it possible to submit a record? With the current SRC, I can't select NINTENDO Switch as a platform, but is it possible to add it?
(2) The Xbox 360 version has a total of 53 missions, while the Switch version has 60 missions. It seems natural to have separate categories for each platform used, but would you consider categorizing them?

orry for the rudimentary question. If I want to do a speedrun on the PS4 version, is there a problem in the rules if I replace the HDD with an SSD? (I asked this question because it is not clearly stated in the "View rules" on the leaderboard)

はじめまして。mzousuiと申します。 以前よりspeedrunに興味があり、初めて挑戦するタイトルとしてEDF5を検討しています。 EDF5のspeedrunを行う際のルールを"View rules"で確認しましたが、いくつか疑問点が生じたため、本ポストを投稿しました。
私はPS4版のEDF5をプレイし、livesplitというツールを使用して時間計測するつもりです。ロード時間を含めた計測は実行できることが確認できましたが、ロード時間を含めない時間計測の手法をどのようにするのかがわかっていません。 ・PS4版にロード時間を含めない時間計測はありますでしょうか？ ・上記の回答がNoの場合、提出する記録はロード時間を含めた結果だけを提出するという解釈で合っていますでしょうか？
(*) I am Japanese. I'm not very good at English. I'm sorry, but I'll post this in both Japanese and machine translated English.
Hi, my name is mzousui. I've been interested in speedrun for a while now, and I'm considering EDF5 as my first title to try. I checked out the rules for speedrun in EDF5 in the "View rules" section, but I had a few questions, which is why I posted this post.
I'm going to play EDF5 on PS4 and use a tool called livesplit to measure the time. I have confirmed that I can perform measurements that include load times, but I have not figured out how to do time measurements that do not include load times. ・Is there any way to measure the time without including the load time in the PS4 version? ・If the answer to the above question is no, am I correct in assuming that I should only submit results that include the load time?
Thank you very much for your cooperation.
