North Carolina, USAStill arranging the categories in this game, I want the characters to be separate but visible so we'll see if I have to split them all into their own leaderboards or not. Otherwise we'll just see Saragat deprecating everything
Sorry for the extremely late reply! Section IDs may have a small drop rate % influence on different types of cards, but they do not prevent you from opening any certain cards. Full research hasn't been done compared to Ep1&2, where each enemy only has one rare drop and can be nailed down.
"Complete the story as fast as possible in Hero/Dark Side. No restrictions.
Timer starts at beginning character creation and ends at closing the final card pack after the final mission."
This timing starts and ends when the in-game time would. I suggest we measure RTA though, if only because resetting to the main menu may actually save time in some cases. See the final mission in my current Dark Side run as an example of this; my first attempt at the mission was not salvageable.
Thanks for the replies guys! I confirmed that the timer starts by opening character creation, so thanks for that greenounet.
The Sonic Heroes file isn't a big deal for accessibility. Having any save present from Heroes on the memory card gives access to Beat from the start of PSO Ep3, no progress has to be made in either game to obtain it. I feel that it does, however, drastically increase the viability of running Dark Side. Dark will be inherently slower than Hero, and two Story Characters you receive have great synergy with Beat.
I can write up a concise ruleset for you today. I'm eager to try and finish one run at least, so I'm jumping in!
Hello there! I suppose I'm only writing this hoping Adam_ak or Gyoo see this. Here goes nothing -
No rules are defined for either category. The videos that are available for Hero Side seem to go by in game time. I assume this starts when choosing Hero/Dark Side after character creation, and ends after opening the last card pack before the credits. Would this be a safe assumption?
Also while I will be starting from a fresh save, I plan on using the Beat bonus card obtained from having a Sonic Heroes save present on the memory card. This shouldn't be a problem correct?
Thanks!
I'll do as you suggested and contact Gyoo or Adam_ak soon, if they don't see my new post over in that forum. Thank you!
Hey guys! I'm excited to start speedrunning, but before I start streaming I want to make sure I don't submit an improper run or anything.
I plan on running a pretty dead game - https://www.speedrun.com/pso_ep3#Dark_Side

Thanks and good to meet you all!
Please change my username to "Gigobooma". Finally decided to commit to streaming, and I want it to be consistent across all my accounts. Thanks!
