Opinions on modifiers
kitabepp and I are currently deciding whether to allow modifiers on the hitstop and slomotion multipliers, and would like your opinions. Here are the pros and cons we've established:
Pros of modifiers being allowed
- Accessibility and comfort: For players who struggle with the automatic slow-motion mechanics, modifying these settings can make the game more comfortable to run.
- Verification: If modifiers are allowed, it would be easier to verify runs, as forcing static settings could make it harder to detect slight, unintended changes.
Cons
- Inconsistency: Various in-game factors, like room scores and crossbow explosions triggering slow-motion, could lead to significant time differences, making competition less consistent.
We would like any opinions on this matter! :)
TBH The pros outweigh the cons by quite a bit to me. Don't know how it would make competition less consistent, considering everyone would probably play with the same modifiers if they were found to make the game faster, but they probably aren't by that much.
I ran today with slow motion and hit stop set to 0, and it became much faster. However, the question is whether you can aim for the sub hour. I died once today, so I couldn't record it.
If you all play with 0, set the total to 0.
By the way, I would like to ask you some tips on power slides, where do you all discuss them?
