:)

You run past them.

Thanks for the quick replies.

I will be giving handgun only a go for sure though.

Is the "No Knife" still coming? Recently came back to running this game and after RE3R a No Knife run sounds pretty appealing.

Also can we get assisted added as difficulties for this and handgun only? I feel like this would make it more popular.

Was the trainer running while you was doing this?

Also what exactly do you mean by fiddling?

Thanks for the reply but I’ve not long seen the news about mixer. It’s ending on 22nd July, the timing right? Haha

I’ll cut down the vod though and I’ll send you a message later.

This can be closed now if anyone would be so kind :)

This is mostly a question for the mods but if people want to chime in with their opinions then feel free.

Recently I streamed on mixer and since all looked good on obs and since I wasn’t locally recording I decided to just grab the vod and was planning on editing it down for a submission. However when double checking the vod there are random sections where the vod hangs for 1-2seconds before catching up to the game (often with the graphics being distorted across the screen obscuring the video).

Now I understand that there is a very good chance that if submitted this run would be rejected as it would make it harder for mods to determine the validity of the run, but I was just wondering what exactly is the threshold for when things like this (if there is one) which would lead to the video being rejected. It affects I would estimate about 6-7seconds of my entire vod (about 3 times in various places).

(Also question to anyone using mixer) I was streaming using ftl which is the lower latency connection for mixer, does rmtp lead to better vods rn?

Has anyone had any crashes? I was doing pb attempts last night, ahead by like 2mins and my game hard crashed. I had to force close it AND restart my computer before it would even let me play again. Every time I tried to open the game after the crash it would just give a black window or if it went full screen it would freeze immediately after doing so.

I thought I was going crazy but I have noticed this happens. It only seems to happen in Kite Bros though, quite possibly due to the camera-lock trigger that is there for the thing (does the Nemmy parasite thing even have an official name other than “nemmys new trick” as the devs called it that he does once and the rest of the time it’s a spontaneous event without Nemmy anywhere near). But it has concerned me cause it looks so much like auto-aim which would invalidate a run wouldn’t it if it’s not on assisted?

So after this recent patch has anyone noticed anything differently?

Does the DA Manip trick still work vs Flame Nemmy?

Can you still get CT Nemmy OOB?

Last night when I was streaming it seemed like the enemy AI has been adjusted? For example, after receiving a bite there’s normally a cool down period before zombies will attack you again. I had multiple instances where zombies chain bit me, I have never known this to happen until yesterday.

When running away from Nemmy after power station, he started to run like he was going to chase me, but then he stopped, turned around and started to walk away like he had de-aggro’d, he then immediately re-aggro’d and sprinted at me.

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone who’s posted here in an effort to get this category a leaderboard and thanks to @Jadusable2 for putting us over the finishing line. Good luck all.

Then it’s infinite MUP on hardcore and above imo.

Nightmare is doable, it’s kinda cool with the magnum. Very hard tho, I got past nest 2 hunters only to die moments later. Haven’t continued that yet though

@Jadusable2 if you allow infinite MUP across all categories it allows for static rules for all cats while also negating the need for the magnum. After all it’s use is depending on what category your using since it’s most likely still slower to not get the upgrades in assisted/standard

here's the remainder, skipped to the attempt when i finally did it but I think it was important to show the before too to be fair and if case anyone was interested.

Ok so I finished it off last night. I was going to highlight the vod but for some reason the video producer on twitch wasn’t working. I’ll try again later when I’m home from work but I do have some suggestions.

The infinite MUP must be legal at least for Carlos only, there is simply not enough ammo to complete this section comfortably imo, it’s still a hard section with the infinite so it by no means trivialises this section, but it definitely does largely raise the odds of you actually beating it. Unless someone can get to this section in hardcore and prove me wrong.

Edit: So my proposed changes would be to group Assisted/Standard together rule wise, no magnum, no shop items

Hardcore/Nightmare/Inferno: Infinite MUP is legal (there’s no need to limit this just to Carlos as that would just over complicate the rules and it gives the players free roam to use it as/when they require). All other shop items are illegal. Magnum is allowed.

I tried just waiting around, it seemed worse tbh but maybe I went about it in the wrong way. I looked back over what happened when I got to the 2nd hunter and I just got impatient I think... I think you're right when it comes to the first hunter but for the 2nd hunter I think you have to focus on zombies while kiting it around, because the zombies make beating the 2nd hunter far worse. On the attempt I got the closest to beating I had like 57 bullets left, with a half dead hunter but a room full of zombies.

Maybe I'm just bad but Defend Jill kinda feels impossible, also CT Nemmy requires you to perfect dodge every hit. I'm gonna pick up from my autosave later, but just LUL, I have the feeling that when I finally get by it'll be because I never miss a single shot and it will take all my ammo.

It’s not a question of whether it’s faster, it’s a question of whether it is necessary.

If it is not necessary then I would prefer if it wasn’t included as I don’t consider it to be a handgun.

However there is the thought in me that if this makes Nest 2 Hunters easier on the runners then in shear terms of making the category more accessible because of this then I would be in favour of it. Because this is honestly one of the worst parts of the run, yet I can’t help but draw a comparison to knife only where they have to kill these hunters with a knife which is a lot tougher than having to use a pistol.

Is it required that it has to include all difficulties? Because the magnum pretty much goes out the window as a requirement on anything higher than standard and imo it would be better to only include assisted and standard as run categories.

Interesting, I use a similar manip on CT Nemmy for handgun only, stops him climbing the tower. I’ll test this out later.
