Shenmue 70 Man Battle speedrun in

[@RichardPayne5]

Called it. Karl has beaten my time with a new 2:24 record time! Well, at least this time my record lasted more than 2 days. 😅 Karl's new record - 70 Man Battle in 2:24.66 → kzbin.info/www/bejne/rIWcYnWcrbmjebc

[@TuskaChannel1.7B1weeksago]

Well.. Lol I still remember when he chased your record in 2 days😂.. and got that 2:29 right🤔.. don't take too much my friend this is also a new piece of yours maybe better than his run maybe now he's tired what he wants to surpass his record?. Btw I just recently started playing Shenmue on PC but I don't know when I want to start it..

[@RichardPayne5]

@@TuskaChannel1.7B1weeksago Thanks man, you’re right in saying our runs aren’t too far off from each other. Mine is arguably better for the most part, especially how well I deal with the mob, but Karl’s final segment is way, way better than mine. His has to be the cleanest Pedro fight I’ve ever seen with the Single Wall Glitch strategy, lasting only 17 seconds VS the usual 22-28 seconds it takes with standard luck and execution. If we could somehow fuse our runs together, that would make for an unprecedented final time! 🤩 I do wonder if Karl is going to keep going or not. 2:24 is already pretty crazy, but knowing the guy…he might actually go for sub 2:20! I’m honestly pretty content with my time and may take a break for a while, but I also want to give it a shot! 👊 Happy to hear you started a new Shenmue file! Is it the HD remaster or the Dreamcast version emulated? I can send you one of my 70 Man Battle save files if you want to skip the grinding and jump straight to practicing. ✌

No other community is lucky enough to get record videos with this much cinematic flair and humor.

[@RichardPayne5]

Thank you, I appreciate the kind words! Glad to hear someone did appreciate the little in-game story I came up with after all. 😁 2:30 was a special achievement for me and I’d wanted to create this silly story for a while, so I kinda did 1+1 for this video. Funny how it’s only been 6 months since then and the new record is already 10 seconds faster! 2024 sure has been a crazy year for 70 Man Battle record times! 😲

[@ManecoSonic]

Yu Suzuki's worst mistake was not leaving this part of the game for us to play. 6:40

[@RichardPayne5]

You mean, you wanted to get to play the return trip too? If they did that, they would have had to rework how the scene played and the song "Wish" wouldn't have fit anymore. One "mistake" Suzuki-san made was not making battles replayable in the post game. The 70 Man Battle is replayable, so why not also include others?

[@Dastan_49]

Congratulations man, it’s amazing!

[@RichardPayne5]

Thanks buddy, glad to hear you enjoyed the run! 😊

[@MidnightBikerHostility]

Deserved! Well done dude! Savor it! 👏👏👏

[@RichardPayne5]

Thanks buddy, yeah I'm definitely savoring the moment! 😎 Been dreaming of a sub 2:30 run since 2021 🙌🙌

[@MidnightBikerHostility]

@@RichardPayne5 Nothing like a dream coming true. You made the Hazuki Style proud with this one.

@Richardpayne5💬 danggg..🔥 this is the moment I've been waiting for,, and congratulations on this achievement for (New World Record)🎉. I can't imagine this run is really amazing and quickly beat the bandits before the segment and arrived at 1:57 and I was also amazed😱. even in pedro's fight it was so messy but you managed to beat him, and get sub 2:30... And i didn't find that fast way sometimes i gave up😅 lately my runs are all broken. left right lost time And didn't find a clue on my run😅 it's unfortunate. btw I appreciate 💕 for this achievement and becoming a champion again 🏆.

[@RichardPayne5]

Thank you so much Karl! You are one of the reasons I've finally joined the sub 2:30 club, as I felt satisfied with my 2:33 time and probably wouldn't have tried this hard had you not started posting your own runs and achieved your world records. When I saw you achieve 2:26 with such incredibly smooth gameplay and beautiful execution of the strategies, I knew I wanted to do the same, or at least achieve sub 2:30. ❤ Before pulling off this run, I'd got a dozen of sub 2 minutes 66 defeated runs, but they all died against Pedro (some of them being featured in "Ryo's dream" at the start of the video 🤣). If it weren't for him, we'd achieved sub 2:20 a long time ago. Seriously, screw that guy! 🤬 In the end, I got incredibly lucky with this run, especially with the final guy using the quick KO animation instead of the super slow one, which would've lost at least 1 second, and we'd be looking at a 2:26.50/70 now. 😅 For now, I think I'm not going to bother with new attempts for a while. I know you're trying your best to achieve sub 2:25, so I pray you can get the necessary luck to make it happen! The faster our runs get, the more ridiculous it becomes to pull the whole thing off from start to finish. 😵

@@RichardPayne5 thanks friend about my impiration to you,, I just recently started running for a while all the ending lost badly against pedro..😅.. no wonder he always uses Bsmove attacks! which annoys even worse about jump kick or clothline punch not to mention the move that doesn't notice "hold octopus and I don't know what the name of his move is like "Tengu Drop" but the shenmue 2 version. BTW payne can I ask the version of Flycast you use with full screen without black gaps if you can send your flycast file to me and I can't find a clue on the web... I've done various things but none of them worked.. I had to edit my video and always crop it, but it's more difficult because I edit on a smartphone and don't understand editing on computer..

[@RichardPayne5]

@@thatsmekarl5365 Yeah, I totally get where you’re coming from about Pedro. That jerk loves to spam his 4-5 OP moves every time you get a fast-paced run. Between the Drop Kick, the Elbow Strike/Clothesline-like attack, the Octopus Hold, and the “Spear” charge attack, I wouldn’t know which move I hate the most. If Ryo didn’t have health regen, I could see people getting stuck in the 70 Man Battle for hours due to how strong and unfair Pedro is. About Flycast, we can give it a try if you want, but I can’t guarantee you it’s going to work. The problem is I mostly use Flycast through “Retroarch”. I don’t know if you know about it, but basically it’s an “emulator manager”, for lack of better words. If you want to use my Flycast build, you will need to download and set up Retroarch on your PC. In any case, this is my Flycast: drive.google.com/file/d/1SXcd9XgVUh6EBD45k5-SRGbKU4HVhVR7/view Assuming you have Retroarch, I suppose all you need to do is grab the Flycast dll file I’ve uploaded and put it in the “cores” folder found within “Retroarch”. I can’t guarantee settings will also carry over, as I suspect they’re set in a different file. You’ll also notice I use an older version of Flycast. I’ve tried updating to the newest version in the past, but as soon as I do that, Shenmue runs much worse! That’s why I’ve sticked with this build from 2022. Let me know how it goes. 😬👍

[@thatsmekarl5365]

@@RichardPayne5 nahh.. it didn't work at all but I thank you for your help payne!.. I already tried Retroarch setup and flycast etc. but failed for widescreen, what could be the problem of my small monitor. but I already found the Flycast version which is superior and the Fps doesn't drop at all.. btw payne I have reached 2:25.76💀 but can't beat your record at all... don't forget to watch it at 6:20pm in the evening.. And I don't, Do you know what time it is? in europe at that time. maybe not the same time in southeast asia?..🤔

[@RichardPayne5]

@@thatsmekarl5365 Yeah, I figured it wouldn't work. It just couldn't be as simple as that. 😅 You did manage to find a Flycast version that works for you, did I get that right? Man, you've already got a sub 2:26 time?! Crazy! You may not have beaten my time now, but your next one is almost guaranteed to do that, considering there's only a gap of 0.20 between our runs. 😂 My timezone is UTC/GMT +1 (Central European Time), while yours is probably GMT +6/7/8, so your video should probably pop up at around noon/lunch time in Europe. Will definitely give it a watch!

[@buyen2920]

😂wait for my world record

[@RichardPayne5]

Do it! We could really use more players in this category. With enough time, practice and patience, anyone can do this. When I started in late 2019, my best time was 3:39 and couldn't see me get past 3 minutes. 😛

[@oziriscercal]

man, years and years, people still trying...... this is the best game of world and time, question: have shenmue 1 e 2 for pc witout emulator? 2 question: you can play mini games after winning shenmue 1 to?????? i already finished the shenmue 2 and i dont know about it.( last saturday)

[@RichardPayne5]

Hey man, yes you can play Shenmue 1 & 2 on PC without emulation! SEGA released an HD remaster collection in 2018 for all modern platforms. Just search for "Shenmue HD" or "Shenmue I & II" on Steam or Humble Bundle if you want to play it on PC. About question 2, yes and no. Once you beat Shenmue 1, the game will ask you to create a "Clear Save", which is used to transfer data to the second game. In addition, you can replay the 70 Man Battle in "Time attack/Time Trial" mode, which is the same as the story fight but you race for the best time, and Guizhang is not present. Just load up the game, then (on Dreamcast) go to "Options", "70 Personal FREE battle" and select the save you want to play it with. You can't replay anything else other than this fight, but it's still a cool addition.

[@oziriscercal]

@@RichardPayne5 many thanks dude!!! man i am a maggot for clear the shenmue 1 and not know about that!! i just create a clear file to play shenmue 2( and again dont work because i using diferents emulators(maybe)(shenmue 1 dont remenber hehe but i stop use this emulator because ryo have only half face(scary lol))(shenmue 2 Red dream , only bugs on audio )on the shenmue hd the audio data is in english?on shenmue 1 i played the USA version and i dont find the japanese version, shenmue 2 i played in japanese. i love shenmue because the game teach me how to translate english and is the unique rpg about martial arts game with free battle system and a little word: i think you are more cool and your videos are better than shemue dojo( sorry for my english, i can read and hear with predict explosion, but my writing is a bull shit domo arigato (hazuki style reverence) from brazil 🐒

[@RichardPayne5]

@@oziriscercal No problem buddy, don’t worry about your English, I can understand you perfectly! I’m honored to hear you think so highly of my videos. 🙏 The guys at Shenmue Dojo cover a variety of topics I wouldn’t be able to do justice like they do, and they’re also way more consistent and hard-working than I am. 😅 That’s why I really appreciate them taking an interest on my content and sharing it over their channel. In any case, what matters is we keep sharing our passion for the Shenmue series so that SEGA & investors know there’s still a huge fanbase out there. 🔥 What emulator are you using? For Dreamcast, Flycast and Redream are the most reliable these days and they only suffer from minor graphic and audio glitches. The Shenmue HD remaster has both English and Japanese audio, and you can switch between them in the options menu! The only gripe is the audio quality is worse, but you get used to it (or you can fix it by modding the game on PC, Shenmue Dojo has a guide on modding on their channel). For a convenience standpoint, Shenmue HD is by far the best version to play today! Do give it a try! 😊 Yeah, I also really appreciate Shenmue as a learning experience for English and Japanese. There’s so much interesting dialogue to go over and study, it really feels like you’re not just “wasting your time” while playing! 🤓

[@oziriscercal]

Thanks Richard,i use Red dream but occur áudio bugs. but i Will play the 2 games again and try the mods of guizang training and the other facing ryo father. I like if you say were i can take these mods. Again (hazuki style reverence) Valeu cara!!!!você é muito maneiro ✌💪👍👊🌅🔥🔥🔥

[@RichardPayne5]

@@oziriscercal No problem man. Keep in mind some mods are made for the HD PC version only, while others are made for the Dreamcast version only. About the "Guizhang training" mod you've mentioned. Are you talking about the "Ryo with Swallow Diving Style" mod I posted a while ago? I never provided a download link for that one I'm afraid. I have a "better" alternative though: a "Play as Guizhang in 70 Man Battle" mod I released at the end of 2023 on my Twitter. All info and download link (google drive folder) in my tweet -> twitter.com/Richard_Payne5/status/1741512715133165899 Installation is kind of tricky unfortunately, but it was the only legal way to release the mod. In short, you'll need to patch a copy of "Shenmue undub: definitive edition" (undub dreamcast mod). Carefully follow the steps detailed in the "readme" file to mod your own build of the game. Remember to make backups of your files! As for the "Father VS Son" mod, maybe you're referring to Bluemue's Shenmue II mod? That one is also not available for download as far as I know. Too bad, because I really wanted to play it too, but he never shared it. I could probably remake it someday, but I'd need to learn more about how Shenmue II works.
