That's ridiculous. D:

 

[bbson john]

It is great. But I suggest your posting another video that is without slowmo, in order to be consistent with your other records.

 

[spunge]

damnit!! I tried it that way but I just couldn't get it

Anyone good at all 3 types of tests. Brick? Have you beaten the game 100% on achievements.

I beat all achievements yesterday. but im sure someone already has. I was happy i did it. It wasnt until after completing all the achievements that I looked to see if anyone else does it fast like me. And Brick definantly does. I just see no steps tests from brick. I honor [Companion] Brick.

 

[spunge]

The steps ones annoy me because they're almost always getting in and out of the lift.

To the brick, I think I've got chamber 14 in 4 seconds need to make fraps stop lagging me.


edit: I've got 5 using this method but I've only tried it a few times. I *might* be able to get 4 if i keep trying

 

[The Brick]

Haha, yeah I know of a different way, but haven't tried it yet. I just prefer harder ways like this.

And thanks darkfire. I don't really like the steps ones. I might do them once I deplete all possibility of improvement on the time and portal runs. I don't really care for the achievements.

So, when are we going to see a speedrun of the actual game instead of challenge maps? And you already know the rules for that, no slow-mo trickery or automation scripts

 

[spunge]

slow mo trickery? lol

I've found two ways, one gets 5 seconds, its similar to yours but with one less portal - only using one orange that remains near the lift. But you lose the fling into the exit that yours had :[

I got 4 using an infinite fall kindof method from the start of the chamber.

Hah yeah thought of that too. I might give it a try for fun, but it's not as challenging as mine

 

[spunge]

The other challenge maps aren't too good for speed, I might try the android one

 

[Nitre]

Probably been done before, but here's 17 with no portals:

[Tyguy]

Someone actually JUST posted that, but if you did that on your own, nice job

 

[Nitre]

Yeah, that one's by me.

 

[The Brick]

Actually Dekstar did that a few hours after release hehe. And I made a vid of that a day later. Posted in this thread.

 

[Nitre]

Ah well, i'm never going to get anything first anyway. I suck too much. Making videos is fun though.

 

[Dekstar]

Yay I'm going down in the history books for doing something first \o/. My reaction speed is never going to be as good as Brick's when it comes to time challenges though.

 

[wilka91]

I did chamber 15 with 11 portals. Is there a video showing how to do less?

I havent gone back to perfect my least step gold runs. But these are my scores for the chambers for the first time i got golds.

Chamber 13: 10
Chamber 14: 10
Chamber 15: 38 (found a trick to skip a lot of the map..ask me to explain more if you want...this one has got to be a world record for this chamber)
Chamber 16: 38 (lol, exact same amount as last chamber..weird)
Chamber 17: 149
Chamber 18: 84

I just came on to this forum for the first time today, and i see a few people talk about "wall-strafing" to get much fewer steps. Can someone explain to me about this. How to do it?

 

[Para]

slow mo trickery? lol

You apparently have tried playing just about any fps game with 0,2x speed or so. It's _easy_, you can literally dodge bullets while meleeing everything down without taking a hit.

hmm, there are slowmo console commands, but then the challenge would say "CHEATER" at the end. So I don't think anyone has been using this.

 

[spunge]

What are the commands? Wanna try some stuff out in slow mo

I remember SOF having this back in the day, that was sick

I can't remember now, but I used them in the original HL2 to mess around. Google is your friend.

 

[Dekstar]

host_timescale 1
that's to make the game run at normal speed.
0.5 is for half speed
2 is for double speed.

sv_cheats need to be on.

Two Portals, Two Words: Owns Brick.
End Of Story, no ones gonna get better than this kid.

So I finally just beat all the bonus stuff and this is what I get

 

[Carbon14]

just wondering, does anyone know if ther achievments are different on the 360? I cant imagine how impossible the time challenged are with a controller

The achievements are the same but by reasoning the time ones should have a few extra seconds to them. Skillful controller users can do quite insane things with those two analog sticks.
