We can obviously get 216 skipping the cinema there. If you are ok Henrik, can I do or at least start the level ? It seems easier than I thought now. ;)

Exactly. So (I think ?) the best thing to do is to skip this cinema and aim for 2.17, which should be doable since Bryan did 2.18 (very high though) non-TAS, with 3 boost. EDIT : Okay, I re-did B2's ending with a better (!) glass warp because the previous one was ugly, and "started" Statue. I made a full slow motion run of the level, to get the thing. Pretty good run, 5 boosts (only got 1 from shootgun guys), ended with 2.17,2. Alright, it should be a problem to go for 2.16, and we only loose 1 second then. :) Here is the new file. http://dehacked.2y.net/microstorage.php/info/351538867/Henrik%20and%20Simon%20-%20Statue%20WIP.m64

Then good luck for 2.15 without this boost (and possibly without the 3rd). :/ This way we are aiming for 2.16. In that case Jack's way will be better in beginning (going by the middle), we can get a boost there.

Yo Henrik. :) Although I had to spend hours starting this run again and again, which drived me crazy (I was even thinking of findind another strat because I was not able to conserve the speed lol), it can't be the hardest part of the game! In my opinion the hardest time I achieved is Streets 1.51 (and maybe Statue then?). This will really be a pain. Thanks anyway! Decimal was .86 (a bit better than my first run), could have been slightly faster without the headshots before the big room but it's more important to keep them as far as I get 40. :D For Statue, I don't know if we can wait the cinema (if not we can't get 2 boost at start) ?

Here's the new strat pulled off! As usual, ended with 40.98 and that was incredibly hard, I think I had a lot of luck in this run. I hope you to get as many luck as me and to cake it better!

GOT IT! teh improvement of the normal strat. I managed to get the good lure of the clipboard guy AND the good lure of the 2nd safekey guy, which totally runs in the good direction. Henrik I think you should go for this strat which should cut few seconds, I made a video if you want. ;-)

In fact, the explosion is small so you need to have it in your head to get a small boost. For that, you need to shot 1 bullet to make it fall, and then 4 other to destroy it in the air... I guess it is worthless.

Okay, so my thoughts : Surface 1 : Yes, I tried during my 1.46 to manipulate the sniper guard to pull a nade, but he was having me to break the strafeline, and I couldn't get it to pull the nade (I guess I didn't have enough patience and got pissed off though). Something which may be faster here is to break the window + luring guard by separate shoots. To see what I mean, see the end of my Dam DLTK TAS or the 3rd alarm on my Dam SA 1.12 TAS. Weirdly, in my experience, I found that method at my advantage. But that requires a lot more of patience. Bunker 1 : Wrong there, I had 58 on 1.2 with a "slight" better run, and 57 WITH the door opened at beginning (2.3). You can notice I forgot to shot near to boris well, but as far as I remember this wasn't close to 56, so the aim is still 57 to me. Surface 2 : Since I have there 1.13 on 00A AND on DLTK, I'd say 1.12 may be possible. On DLTK, killing the guard took me 10 headshots, but my first camera was better. Then when I watch both runs, I don't know which strat is better for the second camera. Bunker 2 : Well on my 45 I already had the cell warp (can be done few frames sooner though), and I'm almost sure the strat I used for luring the clipguy works best. Then, I totally remember that the very last boost and the great warp were essential for getting 45. Obviously there was few minors errors but knowing how close I was to 46, I'd be curious to see 44 there. Egypt : Unfortunately, my 42 was really high and needed the fastest death from best spot on last baron. On 00A you can't kill him from this spot since you only see his arm so I don't see 42 there, but 43 should be fine with the doorwarp.
