Until I update the rules, let's say all emulators are allowed that aren't known to be faulty by other speedrun boards (smartphone emulation for instance and a handful of others).
Hey all, new mod for the game. I will be splitting the categories by console soon as I can. Let's get some more runs in here!!
No solid confirm on the technical side, but it seems like if you nudge just under the platform and jump high enough to bonk your head it seems to help; this may be purely coincidental however. I do wish there was a reliable way to test it.
Excellent run!! One of the most movement specific games ever and such a great speedrun.
I think they are very similar if not exactly the same. I haven't attempted the arcade version yet but would be happy to open up the board for that category as I would assume there won't be much difference to have a merged board; let's find out together!!
Hello, just wondering about an arcade category and if it would be the same goal as NES Single Loop basically. I'm running the game for an event at the end of October and would love to have a coherent run put together by then.
I am in favor of this category as well, since this game in now a part of my longtime playlist. I want to excel in this game and also see every screen it has to offer.
Hello all. Since this game has been selected for the latest Big 20 event I wanted to go through and make sure all the runs included their milliseconds on the board.
Some submissions had not previously included the milliseconds so if you saw your run was re-verified it's because I retimed to get the exact milliseconds.
Exception: those times that are a flat 000 milliseconds will only display as a minute:seconds format, so in these cases we can't show the milliseconds for that run on the board but know that it is a flat 000.
Since you mentioned this bug I contacted the site mods and mentioned it. Also requested moderation to help out the current mods since they are less active right now.
I submitted a month ago with no problem. Is this the only game so far to give you this error?
Yes I can certainly put in for that, I wasn't aware there was a proper series page. Is the IndyCar series just a blanket term for any game featuring Indy Cars or is this a proper, contiguous series released by a team?
I'll get it added either way, I'm just curious if that's the case. Thanks for the heads up, the more we can get these things properly archived the better off future generations will be for having the proper knowledge.
Definitely hope to see more runners playing this excellent game!!
I've been attempting this myself for an event at the end of the month, but if all goes well hopefully I will be able to beat it the first time within the span of NES Odyssey.
I'm happy to bounce tips & tricks off others here in the forums to accomplish this mighty feat, the game is brutally hard and it might just take a village to beat a Metro-Cross.
Hello, new mod for this board. I have amended the rules to follow the generally accepted vernacular, but with all things if new information is brought to light regarding emus or any other part of these rules they will be properly discussed and decided upon.
As always, looking forward to seeing some new faces running this game. Board is slowly being overhauled, so if there are any other requests or suggestions I am happy to discuss.
I am in favor of at least 2 regularly active users taking over, hopefully someone who is motivated.
