Both versions are good to speedrun with :)
It is called a cover launch & they are used in runs :)
A starting point for anyone interested in getting into Uncharted speedrunning.

Yes, the Nintendo Switch version of the game is allowed
Other glitches for this game include Hyperblending which is used to stay undetected & the Master Guild Glitch which is used to get maximum master recruits. You can find more information for this game in the Guides section or in the AC Speedrunning Discord :)
Preliminary Findings (Fast Travel Home Button)
-
Driving & Climbing as Miku carrying Taku:
-
After warping to the home base after activating a supply crate, you can use the fast travel home button to quickly find yourself back on the boat:
-
Hidden Visions: Implemented 3 uses of the fast travel home button & have currently brought the time down from a 10:26 to a 9:32. Quit falls & the fast travel home button have made this run much more interesting.
Any%
- I believe these quit falls have the potential to save time with route changes
Hidden Visions
Hey Droogie4Ever,
The rules for 100% are as follows: Runs are timed using the RTA timing convention and there must be adequate video/audio proof of the run. Timer starts when the music begins after the first load screen. Timer ends on activation of the final supply crate. Collect the 10 supply crates, 60 secrets, 26 boat boost upgrades, 8 landmarks and 8 creatures.
The new treasure hunt to the post-campaign Explore mode that they added in the Hidden Visions update is not required for 100%. It definitely caught me by surprise that they added new content to this game 6 years down the line, but understandly in line with the Steam release of Submerged: Hidden Depths.
Following on from NoobSalmon's post, yes you can both be in a call and run your individual copies of Black Flag at the same time.
All the useful Restart Checkpoints (RCs) that you need to know about in UC3 can be found in this playlist. This playlist covers all categories and all the combat sections in these videos are how I have gone about them in my All Treasures runs. I highly recommend watching people's runs for different categories to view the context in which these RCs are used.
