Question about definition of WB, and timing method
6 years ago
Scotland

Mostly just curious as to how WB would be officially defined for the filter. Something which a few of the top runners for ILs ingame have been doing is tilting up and gripping after drops or jumps, to increase speed.

Would this count as WB for the filter? Personally, I think it shouldn't, it's not really WB if you don't land on the same surface you started on, though I can understand if would be disallowed since it is essentially the same thing.

While I'm here, might as well ask this too: assuming the Adventure level select remains for adv2.0, would the final timing method just skip the intro entirely, starting on whatever the new first level is? On one hand this makes sense, since there's not really much point playing the intro when you just skip it anyway, but on the other hand I'm not sure skipping intro would get the completion slider to 100% on a blank save, so there is a bit of a case against it.

[/quote] Yeah, it would be specifically jumping just for the express purpose of gripping back down onto the same surface. If you're already in the air (even for jump obstacles) then it's fine.

It will largely depend on if completing Adventure unlocks something; at that point, we'd have to base it on unlocking whatever that is, but I personally don't think having 100% on the slider is completely necessary for finishing adventure.
