If prologue time starts now at control then SwearingJam's time needs retimed since it wouldn't be fair to him for someone to take 1st simply by starting their timer later, his run is 8 seconds faster than racingmonster's
Complaint, Suggestion whatever you want to call it, i would like to have New Game and New Game+ as separate categories, looking at the other runs on the board (with the Exception of mine and @TysnJordan's) use NG+ in some form, imo this is unfair compared to NG runners as they have access to better weapons and attachments from the beginning which makes gunfights easier. i feel it would be more fair to separate the categories https://www.speedrun.com/bfh/run/y8q61xny https://www.speedrun.com/bfh/run/z5oqvdey https://www.speedrun.com/bfh/run/mk46dxxy they all use weapons only obtainable after beating the game (M249, silencers etc)
How you can set this as rules could be the following NG has to prove they are using a fresh savefile or new account (you can tell if it's fresh because when you select episodes on a fresh save it goes straight to difficulty instead of chapter select) whereas NG+ means you start the prologue through chapter select and has everything unlocked
As of 28th of June 2024, all top runs will be timed without loads by the game moderators to reduce platform and setup differences. Moderators need to see the loading icon on the top right so avoid blocking that with LiveSplit and any other overlays or otherwise your run might be only timed as RTA. Y
