Im guessing this should be added to the leaderboards as a main category and perhaps with 3 sub categories of each of the aproaches - Silent & Sneaky, The Big Con, Aggressive. Any thoughts? Also timer start on the Vault cotents mission since Scope out casino main part isnt required after the first attmept of the heist.
After doing couple of casual run and one full "speedrun" of agressive aproach (49:06) I feel like okay rules should be - timer starts on host being outside after starting scoping out the vault (scoping out the casino has to be done only once while vault has to be done every run) & timer ends on finale flash, Silent & sneaky & big con aproaches should be done fully in stealth otherwise it is just agressive aproach with extra steps, any driver,hacker,gunman can be chosen, extra optional preps can be bought if needed. Any thoughts?

Should not start restricting strategies arbitrarily, do whatever approach however you want, maybe doing aggressive stealth is faster than aggressive regular?

I can see how this makes sense but it's still dumb.
Yeah i agree with igunana. Just one catagory of The Dimond heist with how the players choose to run it is really all we need. I will add the catagory in when someone has a run ready to be submitted and does it for that matter. Last time a catagory was requested no one submitted a run and as such was removed.
I don't understand what bad a category that would be empty for a day or a week could do? The heist is still fairly new, most of the people are probably trying to just perfect their runs before submitting something that is half-assed. But yeah, getting a category now would at least give us some kind of comparison ground amongst players
EDIT: I also think that there should be separate categories for each approach (finale only) and then a separate "clown fiesta category" for the whole thing preps+finale. I just think that preps are so inconsistent with RNG spawns and other invite accepting strats and lester not working from time to time. Sorry if that's a stupid idea and not a thing that usually exists, I'm a newb in this whole speedrun thingy
Ok so here's the deal. Catagory has been added rules have been defined, see it in the catagory now. TL;DR for the rules is timer starts on vault contents since once you complete it. You dont have to do it again. If i see that there are other runs submitted in the different approches they other catagories will be added respectivly. The problem with dead catagories is that they sit around and just look bad. People in other games point out when a game has dead catagories which is why demand for the catagory needs to be there first. Since we now have one run (i hope by the time i type this. We can justify adding it), i added it. Sorry it took so long
Quick edit: I dont seem to get the notificaitons for fourm posts that often. Contact me on any other place, twitter or discord preferably and you will gain my attention quickly. I'm always active there compared to checking this once every week or so.
