Load times are drastically improved, cool, should save some time over the course of a run.
But Bruiser/GR666 cutscene skips are gone. I imagine the GR666 quick kill is still doable, however.
Any% NG+ does seem like the best category to submit due to its shortness. That said, optional levels in Campaign may also be cool to show off. I'd make a case for co-op if there were any runs (give me time and I can fix that) Also, due to deaths not being too costly, Broforce is a relatively safe game, so if we make a generous estimate (runner's average plus 5m, maybe?) we're not as likely to go over estimate as any game with any make-or-break tricks. Mistakes being recoverable with not too much time lost may be an important thing to mention when submitting. I'd also make a case for a race if we had more activity (and by that I mean me being better and more consistent and actually having a not-campaign run done) but that's for another time. Hopefully AGDQ spotlight on us will get people more interested in running Broforce.
Also, regular streamer or not, you're the current WR holder. WR holders are more likely to be accepted.
AGDQ 2018 will run Jan 7-14 in Herndon, Virginia. What do you all think about submitting Broforce for it? What category/categories would be good to submit? How best do we make our case for the inclusion of Broforce in a GDQ?
As an aside, I happen to be local to the area, so I'd be able and more than willing to run/couch if this thing happened.
If you use an arcade stick like I do, you'll want to change your keybinds because the defaults were not designed for stick play. Shocker.
Which is why Cherry Broling is one of my favorite bros. Also worth noting that she, Brocketeer, and certain bros with movement specials (Broden for instance) can fly over certain cutscene triggers if they jump from the right place.
Oh hey, it's two of the things that I have consistency issues with, essentially solved. I like.
