Patch 1.002.106

Operation Modifiers: Gunship Patrols | Cooldowns

Really good run that I'm somehow unhappy with despite how close it is to the theoretical limit. Mostly it has to do with how competitive the leaderboards have gotten lately, and I'm concerned that this WR will be taken from me if it isn't perfect.

We had a 5:40 deathless time that didn't end up getting posted because our time got leaked to another team and they beat the record by 1s before we could post the video, so I had to make extra sure that this 2nd attempt was solid enough that it couldn't happen again.

Still, we had about 5-6 seconds of time loss. Some due to terminal RNG and some due to execution errors. The generator signal calibration and launch codes can randomly vary making it faster or slower to complete those objectives by a few seconds.

We had a practice attempt on this seed where we got 5:21 but Walloper got crushed by a falling gunship engine last second so we had to do more attempts. I know its probably possible to get sub 5:20 because of this failed run though.

One of the things that made this run difficult was the fact that we needed to juggle a lot of the objectives. We needed at least 2 people on generator to hot drop and get it started right away, and then another 2 more for the other subobjectives. We then needed at least 2 people on main, although preferably we wanted 3 so we could have 2 people to do locks. We actually had 3 people on generator in this run because the routing just worked out better to have the person who did codes finish it off.

To do locks faster, I stimmed before generator lever was pulled to run faster.
