Rio de Janeiro, BrazilI liked the idea, even thought I'm not a runner of it, but for make a category it would be better to wait until people do runs, right? And also, do you plan to do a run of Pacifist% and Arrows Only%?
HUGE GGs man! I loved to see this run in live :D Road to the 44:44!
A timer is not required for your speedrun, all runs are going to be retimed by the moderators anyways
That isn't a stuped idea, actually, it already exists a category for that in the Category Extensions leaderboard. https://www.speedrun.com/pvzce?h=Second_Adventure&x=wkpr1ow2
In fact, it would be a lot of work to remove all the loading screens manually, not to mention that I don't know if it would be possible to get an autosplitter to work with console runs.
But I thank you for answering me and sorry if it was a very random post, but have a nice day!
Hello! Sorry to bother with this post but I noticed something kind of curious with the black screens while watching DonDoil's 100% run, as he seemed to get black screens pretty quickly and so I decided to investigate and went to watch another run, this time from Any% by someone else , but this time on PS4 and I noticed that the screens seemed to take longer and so I decided to time them.
Here are the duration of 4 black screens by for different runners and consoles, just as a demonstration, one when they load the game (after starting the run) another after skipping the cutscene (PS: the 2nd and the 5th did not done that so that's why there's no time for it), when they enter the first level and when they finish the first level:
1.200 1.167 1.467 1.200 1st Place (PC)
3.850 4.100 4.017 2nd Place (PS4)
1.650 1.150 1.667 1.367 3rd Place (PC)
5.200 7.600 4.867 5th Place (Xbox One)
Looking at the times, you can see that the PC has a certain advantage over the consoles, maybe 3 or 4 seconds on average. With that, I made this post more to give an idea of adding "Loadless Real Time" to make the competition more fair in relation to people who play on the console with people who play on the PC, because of this factor.
Again, I apologize for bothering you with this somewhat random post and its length, I hope you understand, but thank you if you have read it.
I would rather to be uploaded to Youtube, but I don't see any problem with been uploaded to a Google Drive, as long as the video will be available to everyone is fine to me (and the run is according with the rules as well).
WOAH!! This is a insane discovery man! Breaking the game even more xDD Gonna practice that and maybe try for future runs.
The only possible away to do a 100% run without using Real Money or going back to a unlocked file (which is not allowed) is to farm money during the run. The best way possible to do it is to do a bunch of flags at Survival: Endless since there is the easiest way to get more money and more faster.
You don't need to do all the achievements to get the 100% of the Game, the 100% does only includes the completion of the Advventure Mode once, All Mini-Games, All Puzzles, All Survivals, like said in the rules.
There is, however, a category for all the Steam Achievements, which can be found here: https://www.speedrun.com/pvzce?h=All_Steam_Achievements
100% runs on Mobile are actually a bit more different since no all of the Mini-Games/Puzzles/Last Stands are unlocked naturally, the only expection being the Survivals after completing the Adventure Mode. This is the main reason for why someone hasn't done a run yet.
About the glitches tho, Date changing isn't considered a glitch by itself, but it's fine to do so, I'd imagine it would be for Zen Garden to grind money.
You can, but it won't be accepted on leaderboards.
Yeah, it's possible to do that on You Are Cordially Invated... but it's more harder and inconsistent, that's why we don't go for it during runs.
It's up to your preference and what you feel most comfortable with, I normally revise the timing of all the runs I do verify, but doing that would help a bit to get a sense of how long your loading screens are. But again, it's not necessary and if it's your comfort not to do that, that's fine too.
