Hey all,

Found several Goldeneye challenged but wondered if anyone fancied another one? 😉

Try and complete Runway on Goldeneye Agent difficulty as fast as possible, got a feeling the time will be very close and post a photo of completion time.

Prize... Infinite glory of Goldeneye Runway :dance:

I love the sound of this. Going to be tactical and see what times go up so I know what I am up against.

No cheats as well chaps! So no turbo mode, action replays or anything!!!

Not a bad start! I'm sure we can shave some seconds off that! I can't get to my 64 tonight I have got football but I am ready to start "trying" to turn the heat up on this one.

Managed to shave a second off the current best by going for the zero casualty approach. Plain and vanilla! Got my Darth Vader prize from the forum in the pic to prove authenticity.

Going to be more analogue sticks worn out if that is to be beaten, think I was pretty maxed out on the stick and c button. Now it is about finding the perfect line to perhaps shave another second or two off?

In my youth I used to speed run Perfect Dark, right at release when I was 15 and had nothing to do a whole summer. I never got into GE that much, but the PD Elite grew and expanded into the GE Elite and there are plenty of crazy times out there.

It looks like 59 people have done 22 seconds on Runway Agent, so lots of time for improvement from 27. Also I believe the C-stick controller style (Honey?) is faster than the joystick, they figured that out years ago.

http://rankings.the-elite.net/goldeneye

I do have a 54 seconds myself on Dam Agent though (WR is 53), happy about that and my name is on their list (Jonas McCammon). I liked speedrunning that one because there is an element of skill, you have to shoot that lock to pop the chain link fence perfectly in stride.
Edit to Add: If you look at their videos, you have to strategically use grenades to speed boost yourself. Time them right so they don't kill you but barely hit you and bounce you forward.

Thanks for sharing JB this looks very interesting and definitely gives some perspective. I am down for trying to reduce my time further and indeed attempting some other levels in uber times as well.

Doing Egyption on 00 you would have thought would take longer than agent because I swear it takes more shots to kill Samedi? Even if you got off a headshot. Long reload on the Golden Gun. Or does a headshot do him regardless?

:o

22 seconds. Wow.

When I was playing the other night, it seemed like taking the optimal line always ended up with the plane getting destroyed.

Managed to shave another second off got my PB down to 26 seconds that was without changing the controller settings or using grenades (which I have tried on other goes and that is some skill what the guy does in the vid to get 22 seconds lol).

I think I had a good line but the plane didn't get destroyed as I got shot a few times which boosted me but away from the plane line of fire slightly.

Nice challenge!

I was never good at 007GE. I play more Perfect Dark.

If I remember well, my best time is 26 for Agent and 31 for Special Agent. And less than 1 minute for 00Agent.

Detail: I use 1.1 Control style.

---
I will to make some Perfect Dark challenges soon ;)
Just another admirer of the best videogame of all time =D

Nice one MBC! I had another go earlier but could only equal 26. I also tried doing the grenade boosting tactic but it's harder than you think.

I got 19 seconds with turbo mode on but that is cheating... :applause: :blasphemy bat:

Evidence it up DJC! On a serious note, achievable as in without using grenade boosts? I think 26 is the best without I thought I more or less had perfection with my line and I got shot in the back twice to boost me. I feel like the only real way to knock more off is start boosting after you got the key by lobbing grenades in the air. It is hard to chuck them where you need to land by looking up without deviating from the best line you need to stay on. It really is an art to perfect that!

:eh:

I'll bother with the pic when I get 25 or better 😜
I think I got a 26 without grenades, but definitely had a few other 26s with grenades.

Gotta RUNWAY fast to break that record!
DAM it's hard, but I'm sure if I BUNKER down I will be able to SURFACE with a better time...
Sorry, that was awful😆

DJC I'm sure you can take CONTROL if you run like an AZTEC trying to catch a TRAIN for the first time. Just forget about the JUNGLE and CRADLE that plane key as you sprint your way up that RUNWAY.

First 5 goes this evening, all 26 seconds. 😆
SIGH, LOW success so far...

I remember I used to do "style runs" of this level on 00 Agent.
Trying to shoot the mini guns on the move while spinning the gun on the tank etc.
And tossing grenades in the air and timing it so they land one enemies 😂


EDIT: Finally I used enough CONTROL and Got a time of 25 seconds.

I did use grenades, but I'd also like to point out I never watched a video to work out how to do it, I just used the wise words "just use a grenade" 😄

I found throwing 3-4 at a time worked well.

Any luck getting closer on the time?

Or is it time for a new challenge? 😀

I actually had a dream about this challenge last night.
And having to write a report on it or something.
And specifically the time of 25 seconds.

Not yet I haven't been on it since. All my spare time I have been on Pro Evolution Soccer. Definitely up for a fresh challenge to encourage me to get back on 007 and try and better my time on this one and take the bragging rights for the new challenge.

Shall we call this one run and won then?

I'm keen for a new one if someone sets one. 😎

I reckon I should think about doing a video of the enemy rocket challenge.
Might make it easier to undestand and more fun that way😊

Now to get home and attempt to get close to the elusive under 1'20'00 on Golden Forest in 1080...

I'm happy to call it, haven't tried in a while and don't think its going to be easy to get past 26 sec without the grenade boosts...

I also have another Goldeneye challenge idea but this is a bit more difficult ;)
