Voltak Posted October 29, 2021 Posted October 29, 2021 (edited) We were just doing this for fun, right before we were going to log off the game. This is our idea of a speed run ITF, but something happened. At the conclusion of this we all realized we had just beaten the record of a four man team of 3 Titan Weapons/Bio Scrapper with 1 Kinetics/Sonic Defender. We beat that time by 11 seconds, with only a 3 man team. Our final time - 19 mins 28 seconds. Edited October 29, 2021 by Voltak 1 4
Glacier Peak Posted October 29, 2021 Posted October 29, 2021 (edited) That looks pretty fast Edit: Meaning the three of you did it quickly, not anything to do with the video speed. Good work!

TheZag Posted October 29, 2021 Posted October 29, 2021 Are the records recorded somewhere or validated or moderated? Or is it a word of mouth thing? 1

There is a question mark right on the title. I am not asserting "world record" , nope. I am making a question. Aside from that, in the Master ITF chnl we do keep track of times set by members. Our team of 3 broke the record of a 4 - man team. Cheers 1
TheZag Posted October 29, 2021 Posted October 29, 2021 Ya i was curious mostly if there was a location with times since you had the 1 time that you beat, not really whether it was official or not. 1

Zag, yo, Zag ! Check this out I got this message on Reddit "Hey that’s pretty solid, man! Not bad not bad. There’s no current record holder for the 3-4 man ITF category on Speedrun.com. You could post this there and become the official record holders!"

Good work! I know what you meant. I was saying that it's funny that to me it seemed also like the video was on fast playback. I did check 1-2 times to make sure it was at normal speeds because I selected fast play on only some occasions Just watching the video it looks fast. 🙂
Hedgefund Posted October 29, 2021 Posted October 29, 2021 Speedrun.com has a page for Homecoming. You can check that for ITF and any other. 2

Or is it a word of mouth thing? there are record keepers. I am not interested enough to know the details. We regularly squish these out on +0 8 person teams in the 11-14 min range racing each other. spped record is like 5-7 min. something crazy as a speed run you added all the extra time on the F-ing yourself out of debuffs by +4 and limiting insp/etc. x8 means nothing because nothing is a kill all. There are a certain number of objectives. period. Edited October 31, 2021 by Snarky

There are a certain number of objectives. period. The speed run goal was to do it within those parameters - to do a speed run at 54 x8 with no insps , no temps, no amplifiers and so on. That's the speed run we were interested in doing, a speed run within that category. I hope that clears it up a bit.

So, doing the ITF fast, but doing the ITF with Master Settings, no insps, no temps, no deaths, and at +4 x 8. The goal was not to do a speed run in an extremely easy category. I hope that explains it better. Cheers 1
