GoldenEye 007's first stage Dam, hosts what is likely the oldest speedrunning strategy still used by players today. But it's not the only strategy available, and a faster one has been known about for 20 years. But it was deemed too difficult, and therefore nobody tried. That is.. until now.

[@Lotussta]

They did TAS run it at 1:14 and the TAS really doesnt seem to do anything a human couldnt so yea, should be doable...

[@BeastGamingHD]

@@Lotussta The TAS was done in 1:12 iirc

[@dynagamerproductions8249]

​@@Lotussta The TAS uses some insane aiming that is completely unrealistic for a human to do. Also, you guys are overlooking that fact that 116 is extremely tight, so getting a 116 equivalent run while also getting both cam shots is ridiculous (but not out of the question). The next time Dam SA gets lowered it will be using the 'Piggy Back' strat that has been known about for over a year now; I doubt anyone will attempt 114 using the cam shots.

[@clearspira]

If there is one thing i've learned about the speedrunning community over the years, is that every time someone claims that a record will never be beaten, eventually someone will come along and beat it. In many ways that is also the beauty of new blood coming into our hobby.

[@Tocinos]

@XYX we'll see

[@FFKonoko]

There are a couple times when a run truly will never be beaten. But while that might be for very very niche games and runs, its generally when an otherwise ridiculously optimized game has something not bypassable that means there are discrete chunks of time saves possible and the next one is out of the question because of how optimized a game is. Funnily enough Goldeneye and Mario are reasonable examples of games that will inevitably reach unbeatable records, and it's why whenever this sort of thing happens that it is so big. Because saving entire seconds or even entire frame rules gets harder and harder each time. Mario runs reaching the human limit, and then pushing up right against the TAS are a good example of there still being some room, but the execution being the issue. This was an insane record break...and it has now set an even harder bar to beat, quite probably an impossible one. If someone got a 1:12, it would definitely be an impossible one. And it was insane, while having a known faster strategy around. There are plenty of other long standing records that don't have such possibilities known.

[@RuyVuusen]

If there is one thing I've learned about the speedrunning community over the years, it's that going quick makes you fast.

[@birdsteak9267]

There is a limit, but towards the end every new record will be far between each-other each and every time, but eventually someone will do a flawless run. Unless a new glitch is discovered, another flawless run might at very best just push micro-seconds.

[@SwitchTalkChannel]

To be fair: that one was just luck, not skill. Did he say that he just shot through windows for 6 months until he got lucky and hit the buttons randomly? Or, am I missing something?

[@Fallub]

What a great edited and narrated video. Thank you.

[@medea27]

Calle = an absolute legend 👍 I have so many amazing memories of playing multiplayer GoldenEye when it came out... how many times we'd scream at the TV because the hitboxes for characters seemed completely scuffed and how quickly a game would degenerate into a button-mashing exercise rather than accurate sniping attempts. So it still blows my mind every time I see these frame-specific pixel-accurate strategies that keep being discovered in speedrunning... and I think that shooting at a tiny button through a window as you're running towards it _without even being able to see it_ just about takes the cake!

I can think of plenty of things that would inspire more awe than someone spending countless hours doing the same repetitive actions until they get the result they want.

It is a task of endurance and patience, it is something most people wont do, but it is not really awe inspiring overall :/

Finally, after all these years, I now know why people have been laughing at me behind my back. Thank you Karl, you are a godsend 🙃

Absolute Godsend*

Great video it’s nice to see this game is still being kept alive👌🏽

Every time I see how relieved they are to hit their target, I flash back to that old movie PCU when the dude at the end jumps up off the couch shouting "I can stop watching TV!!!" and then falls over because his legs are asleep

[@Singingnoob-3minutesdirty]

My favourite part about you is that you actually have a speedrun world record, it shows you are actually talented and can discuss these things expertly

[@kittyfangz5262]

i think he was very nearly the top player in the world in the early 2000s

[@nerdjournal]

Oh so only record holders can be experts?

[@salineaddict9850]

He’s also a multi-time world champion in Perfect Dark. Could have been one in this game aswell, he is truly a legend in speedrunning.

@@kittyfangz5262 Not just back then, even now. As of right now, Karl and Carl both hold the record for Dam Agent difficulty.

[@danielwang7793]

Looking at the Elite rankings, he has 16 records in Goldeneye alone. Tied records, although he was the first to set several of them. Dude does not give himself nearly enough credit, even if humility is a nice thing.

One of my favorite things about Karl jobst is that he makes these videos to inform us and share the love towards other gamers. He could easily just talk about himself and his numerous world records and feats but he instead opts to say "look at this person and the amazing thing they did, let's talk about why this person is awesome and deserving of praise" which is always a good feeling. Anytime I see a video like this I'm always happy to know that instead of being greedy time and effort was put into highlighting the greatest moment of others and spreading the love for a hobby. It's one of the best features of this channel for sure.

Out of all the notifications I'm bombarded with from KZbin to Twitter, this is the only video I watched all the way through.
