There's me going into the broodmother fight with 85 smoothies, 110 bandages, 59 meals, fully upgraded gear and weapons (exaggerating on the numbers a bit but you get the point lol). Then there's you going in with a 3 pebblets and a few pebblet spears.💀🤣 Impressive stuff, great job!

Haha I did the same at first tbf! Just had to yolo in with minimal gear to see what I could just about survive with, then Seethrew unlocked the hucking pebblet spears strat and that was the last piece we needed

I always enjoy these Speedruns, it goes to show how fast you can go by breaking the game

[@HolyCodzta]

That's good to hear. That was the plan!

[@Dosa-xp1nj]

It’s a tas which means it’s a computer program it’s not humanly possible to do these inputs as a human. But you’re right it’s still cool to watch

[@HolyCodzta]

@@Dosa-xp1nj Tbf the tricks are doable by a human, it would just take more attempts due to the inconsistency of the door fling (which I was able to bypass for this run using a macro). This run could still be cleaned up a bit so I think this time is actually beatable by a human following the same route and on a patch before the spear nerf and broodmother buff.

[@King_vegeta9000]

I have watched all of your speedruns, my favourite has to be the 5:28 Black widow on Woah difficulty. Quick question though, , do you know if the door glitch still works on 1.34?

[@HolyCodzta]

Damn, thanks! Why'd you like that one the most, cause it was on woah? Door glitches got patched with 1.3 :(

[@King_vegeta9000]

@HolyCodzta Yeah, the main reason why I like it so much is because neither me or my friends can get even close to beating a widow on woah diff. Then you come along and decimate it in 5 minutes with a few pebblet spears which is insane. Also pretty sad that it got patched, thanks for letting me know 👍.

[@Impulse725]

Damn, this one was nutty. Doing all the jumping while moving the oven was you showboating, right? Great job!

[@HolyCodzta]

Aha no it was actually necessary! Because I slept at the start to be able to scan more stuff it'd be too soon to sleep again if I flung myself to the hedge, so setting the BLT to cook and running with to hedge with it is the fastest way there. Lines up nicely because it gets done cooking basically right at the brood den entrance

[@DonkeyDudes-jc5xr]

When fighting the bombardiers you should get the aphid statue for the mutation and get the 4th gland faster. You just need insane run. Just a suggestion, but it might help!

[@HolyCodzta]

Could do that now yeah for sure! Despite what the intro says I actually ran this on a patch before any of the loot luck stuff was added

[@zuggo]

What TAS elements do you use? (I know nothing about grounded speedruns), are there tools for savestates, rng manipulation etc?

[@HolyCodzta]

All I used was a handful of macros, can check description for more info on those. Oh and a set seed, forgot to add that. This was all one continuous run that I started from a save at the very start of the game, 0 days 7 hours and 0 minutes. Haven't heard of any tools for save states or rng manipulation because Grounded is hard to mod, might be doable though and we just don't know how yet

[@jjakji2078]

Dude, how in the hell did you figure out these strategies? I watched this before reading the description and thought this was straight up a bot playing or something. Absolute insanity. I just casually played grounded and never expected the speedruns to be so entertaining.

[@HolyCodzta]

Well it was another speedrunner Zylo that found the door launch glitch and I've been running Broodmother on and off for almost a year now, so once Zylo found that glitch it was just a matter of figuring out where to launch from to skip as much walking as possible. This is probably the craziest Grounded speedrun uploaded so far but some others have been working on a glitched any% run which is gonna look insane, so keep an eye out for that. Glad you enjoyed though, I thoroughly enjoyed reading this comment!

[@CaptainCurly_pillhater]

10:47 how did you calculate this

[@HolyCodzta]

Well when I built the door I actually lined it up so I could get the launch to the bbq spill, then I thought it would save time if I destroyed and rebuilt the door the fewest number of times possible so just messed with different launch positions until I found one that launched me to the thistle/Flat Rock. Figured out that the closer to the frame you stand the slower and less distance you travel so then started using similar positioning to launch to the bombardiers by the hedge

[@CaptainCurly_pillhater]

@@HolyCodzta your acting like this a regular Tuesday for you💀

[@oscarkinert1912]

There is something that just seems off about the camera movement it usually looks pretty snappy in the most tas runs ive seen, where as this runs camera movement is smooth. Still incredible though!

[@HolyCodzta]

Probably because it's still me playing! Any amount of randomness means you can't run the same inputs every time, so it's about as tool assisted as a Grounded can get without just using console commands to spawn items in or whatever. More explanation in description

[@w3kc898]

I hope you'll try and attempt to fight broodmother with her changes.

No plans for another broodmother run for a while but she is required for some other runs so will be in those...

[@ErzengelDesLichtes]

May I ask why you slept early on? Is there something special about the time of day?

[@HolyCodzta]

Certainly! I slept because I needed to scan plant fibre, pebblet, clover, aphid and grass to make crude rope, axe, spears, slippers, bandage, lean-to and door. That's 5 things to scan though and it's too long to wait for the analyser to recharge so I sleep to recharge it straight away

Why does the broodmother not use her scream in your fights? It would be nice to know if there is a way to avoid that since it applies a attack damage reduction.

Are you on discord? The official Grounded discord has a channel specifically for finding others to play with there. I see people find groups on reddit pretty frequently too

[@jksb4172]

Why do you prefer First person?

[@HolyCodzta]

That is a great question! Thinking back to the first games I ever played, they were things like Abe's Oddysee, Super Mario on the original Gameboy, Metal Gear Solid etc, and they're all third person. Got very into Halo though so maybe it was playing so much of that that made me prefer first person, not sure. I've tried third person in Grounded and it can help with combat and I think I actually prefer the look of it because you can see more, but for parkour I'd say first person is just better because your character doesn't block your view so you can see exactly where you want to land. Do you prefer first or third person?

[@jksb4172]

@@HolyCodzta ohh I see. I like both but Im actually playing some FPS games like Pubg, Escape from tarkov both are first person, I tried first person in Grounded but only for parkour as you said, for fights I prefer third and sometimes both

[@westendoud697]

i’m not too knowledgeable about this kind of stuff but why does it seem like there are a couple mistakes that would lose time if it is a tas

The macros can only help so much like with the door launches, giving up and spamming E to pick stuff up and build, everything else is still down to my execution. So the run is still assisted by tools, just not to the level of a Trackmania tas or something

[@XxEggman_Meme_GodxX]

Codzta I smell time save, if you got gud you wouldn’t need the acorn chestplate.

[@HolyCodzta]

Yeahh so I was trying that before I started running from a set seed but I would die often enough that I didn't want to risk a good rng run by not having the chestpiece. Then when I started running from a set save I just kinda forgot to try again without the armour. I also experimented with a different route at the start but that was before I had the hedge launch consistent, then after I decided to figure out how to get that consistent again I just forgot/decided not to try that route again. I could probably downpatch my game and do it again for the sub 17 but broodmother has been done to death at this point and people wanna see schmector, mantis, ibm, etc so I'd run all those before I go back to brood tas

[@XxEggman_Meme_GodxX]

@@HolyCodzta I mean a schmector runs just kind of a full game speedrun isn’t it. Cause you fight him after doing all the labs, fight itself isn’t even that fun because he’s just a slightly stronger assistant manager that you can dunk easily.

[@michaeltruesdell9610]

Why do you kill yourself in the beginning?

[@HolyCodzta]

I had to on this run because this was run on a set save so I wanted to make sure my character position was at the start, but I also do it on other runs because we start time when you gain control of your character and it's easier to start the timer at the same time as pressing respawn rather than eyeballing when the game gives you control

[@liko8377]

Самый человечный спидран Таса. Не играв в игру, я виже кучу оплошностей. Долгая настройка положения на двери, промахи по ягоде, медленная победа над жуком, также промахи по ему. А ведь я даже и половины не посмотрел. В общем не идеальное прохождение, скип

[@HolyCodzta]

A tas doesn't mean every input has to be assisted, that would be impossible in Grounded with the random AI pathing and attack patterns. I used a few macros for this run (read about them in the description if you want) which means I was assisted by a tool, hence tool assisted speedrun
