Uh, what's with that horrible lag at Serris?
Edit: Btw, is it possible to hit all the bosses with two missiles to save some time (ie. to hit Arachnus when he becomes vulnerable after the roll to kill him in two rounds if possible)?

Cool. Then I suppose that Arachnus can be killed in two rounds, assuming that his morphball state isn't triggered by the damage dealt.
But is it possible to hit Eye Core-X twice the same way? It would save a LOT of time.

I've managed to do that once.
that was before I realised I had fast shot on, haven't tried since

There's lag when I shoot missles, I don't think I can avoid it
although having slowdown when I shoot, does kinda give it a matrix effect

I think you probably could have avoided it by enabling the Lag Reduction option before recording. Normally it's enabled by default, but it seems to be off in your movie, possibly leftover from an older version's settings.

I don't see what difference double shots make

No, you don't. Look at what it says when your movie is playing (that is the way the option was when you first started recording the movie). You can even test the effects of turning it on by holding Ctrl while choosing it while the movie is playing. I confirmed that enabling it during that boss battle gets rid of the lag (and of course causes a desync with the current movie).
Sorry I didn't have time to see it until now. I like the way you speedrun this game, and I don't think you should change it (except for a better time). I have nothing to say other than that, very good BOX fight and good idea : You picked up bob after you managed to skip it ^^

weird, I don't remember seeing your post Qlex
anyways, I've decided to start again now (please ignore the rerecord count), I thought I would play to the 1st missile tank then do some testing on the least time comsuming tanks
But, as I was going (well A+B Turboing) through the intro, I seemed to have skiped alot and I want to know if anyone else is sees this
look vbm

Yeah, commas are my friend
I'm starting again, from the beggining.
Whilst making the first part I skipped loads of the intro text
I wanted to confirm it wasn't just me

Right, I think I got the top ten missile tanks seen here
also i'm only gonna get an energy tank to save red-x waiting time, which probably means i dont even get one

Sector 1
I love that arachnus fight, although i hate the way it reacts to beam shots, 5 beam shots, that's the maximum amount, and i have to do 10 shots
(Arachnus breaths fire when you beam shoot, and missiles make it sonic boom)
it takes ~13815 for the intro to finish (3 minutes, 50 seconds, 15 frames) so I'm currently 11498 (3 minutes, 11 second, 38 frames), excluding the intro, ahead of Dragonfangs :p
what i ask myself is..
for example lets say
pjboy does a mf(J)100% run without intro
and
xxx does a mf(u)100% run with intro
both runs end with same frame counter expect the intro frames..
will that intro thing affect the submition? or the video timing? ;/
Utterly high quality, dude! Favorite parts so far:
• how you make SA-X fire a super missile at an open hatch (this is downright hilarious; I also remember seeing it in your test run);
• third atmospheric stabilizer.
Also, a question: do you think you'll save more time not taking that one e-tank than you could probably save in boss fights taking damage instead of avoiding it? (I just think it could possibly save you more than two seconds you spend on grabbing the tank.)
