Title: Challenge #777, "Rifle Range" from Single Player Training
Post by: Lupastic on November 22, 2021, 04:09 PM
eyy Free, what if instead the overall timecount, the targets would matter in the count? targets that you hit with the shotgun, there is a counter in the lower left corner while you are doing this training mission.

Yeah I was wondering which one to go for but I think it would be pretty much the same, right?

Anyways I decided to go with longest time.

I was able to get 1:09:43 back in 2004, but is that submittable? This time I only got up to 57:47.

This training stage benefits from strategy, so perhaps the replays should have been hidden. I'm surprised Mablak didn't use this strategy; he'd probably go way past 1 hour if he did. I posted my 1:09:43 run back in 2004, but I guess nobody watched it?

Edit: Oh! Mablak did use the strategy. It's just that he waited until 32 seconds in to do it. (And Free used the main part of the strategy, too, starting at 22 seconds.)

Edit 2: I am glad the replays aren't hidden. It's more fun this way.

Yeah I had no idea one could even have strategy at this :D

Sure you can submit this 1:09:43

Very impressive.

KRD was gonna submit his record. With that record I think you scared him off. At this point it's safe to say that everybody is scared off. It is not a challenge about shotgun accuracy anymore. It's endurance challenge now :)

i admire the focus, nice job, do you get time credit for the targets that fall in water, or no?  Something was aesthetically pleasing about deadcode's triangle of land he created.  I was thinking of some sort of infinite loop scenario.

Thanks! And no, you get no credit for drowned targets. If you did, I could have kept going until I was completely exhausted... as it was, I was pretty fatigued at the end.

I would list the most important strategies being

Also, please don't be scared off from submitting. It can still be a battle for 3rd place if you don't want to go heavy on the endurance.

Fun fact, Mablak has spent longer shooting these targets than it took him to speedrun all single player missions.

i feel like time trial to X targets would've been better, to reward accuracy or sth
