A segmented run means that the speed runner plays one chunk of the game over and over again until it goes perfectly right. Each new segment begins after the author reaches his "perfect run" of a previous segment. You can see the segment boundaries every time the author saves. Going up to the end of a run can mean reloading hundreds of times total to get the perfect combat outcomes, the perfect research events(there is some RNG with research), the perfect council events (like not getting disbanded), and the perfect cydonia run.

The Ugly Barnacle they just reduced the amount of zeros in EU/EW. Does it matter if it costs 35 or 35 000? If you earn 1000 or 1000 000? 3 last digits make it look like the armor is really worth 250 000 USD a unit, but 250 a unit works the same. You can even add 000 000 instead of simply 000 in your mind, if such numbers seem more true to you.

I really loved to see the speedrun. Well done! That was one of the rare games I could play over and over again. I tried to increase the PSI abilities of my soldiers, so only 4 of them were able to mindcontrol a whole base of aliens. Them soldiers led them, disarmed of course and brought them to the ‚slaughterhouse‘ where my snipers improved their skills to the limit of the game. Same procedure with their battleships before they tried to fly in my blaster bomb protected bases.

fk242 aha, I see. Did you retry each month, or run the whole game in one go each time? If it's the former, you should mention in the description that it's a tool-assisted speedrun. (saving and reloading counts as the tool) *edit: segmented speedrun* By the looks of it I'd believe you did the whole thing in one go, which makes me wonder how many times you had to try in order to succeed. Forgive me for making so many conclusions, I'm just excited to see something like this!

TheReaverOfDarkness As I write in the description, it was done in 11 segments (new segment starts after each save). Running through the whole game like that would be close to impossible. I don't think that saving and reloading makes it tool-assisted - that would mean that every Quake Done Quick movie is in fact tool-assisted, as they connect the individual level runs together..?

fk242 I'm not sure, but it seems to me that using save/reload for a speedrun is a lot closer to actually using trainer tools than it is to just doing a straight playthrough. Some of these games let you save anywhere (ex. X-Com, Quake, Diablo) while some don't, but you can bypass not being able to save by using a trainer program to save. But I'm not suggesting it's an illegitimate run. I figure the main reason for putting "tool assisted" in the description is so people can find it. Sometimes I search speedruns and narrow it down with the keywords "tool assisted" because I don't want to find lame speedruns that aren't much faster than I already play.

Why you can't make a speed run in ufo: The game is mostly random. It can take a half month to have an alien base in your area or a whole year. Same goes for landing ships. Same goes for how missions are built. Somebody might just be luckier then you. This "speed run" here could also be cut, just picking out the scenes with the right missions.

Ale pozor tahle taktika "jet jet a jet"(vim ze je to speedrun) je sice zajímavá ale upřímě mě se líbí víc taktika pomalu chytit každý ufo a nakonec když mám 5 Avengerů z toho jeden naplněnej posádkou Commanderů + 3 plasmovými Howertanky a 50 000 000$ a státy mi řikaj EXCELENT jdu na Cydonii. Ale vážně RESPEKT! Ps: Divim se, že tě ten Silakoid na Cydonii nezabil :D

Im not buying the whole "A bug makes the game easy after first mission" argument. Compared to my experiance on Superhuman this looks very easy. He had aliens moving away from his troops when they normally would approach and attack (The lava creature below the brain, and the sectoid SE of the small UFO). On the Mars and Alien Base mission combined, there was only a single mind control attack over like 10 combined turns which amounted to nothing at all.

As Julian Gollop, developer of the game, said in an interview, the AI does 1 out of several actions based on RNG. He just loaded the game repeatedly until he was happy with the outcome. That's why he saved at the beginning of each mission. That's the "segmented" part of "segmented speedrun".

​@@alexborr1746: I think that both leader and commander are usually located in the center of the base (the fancy room at 5:01), so it's best to just stun everybody in there and check (or mind probe them if they're too far away and stunning would be harder than just shooting them). In the speedrun, I encountered an anomaly where the commander is roaming near the elevator, so it was far easier than grabbing both of them from the center room.

This is why the 1994 is better than this modern xcom shit. You could attack bases when you wanted, you could manufacture equipment and sell it to sustain your economy, you could choose the way to approach a mission. I remember when I got my hands on the blaster launcher for the first time in this XCOM, I just leveled every obstacle that seemed like a perfect place for an enemy ambush and it worked. I carried as much ammo as the skyranger could carry and do all kind of crazy shit. Most important I had 14 guys, had I lost them all no biggie, more cannon fodder, but this new xcom is just retarded. When you look at it gameplay wise it's a downgrade from the 1994 one, it brings to the table just graphics and sounds.

+Colban Cassian i really don't think the gameplay's as good as you say. every ui in the game is about as friendly as a mathematical equation. there's no benefit to terrain (such as a cover system) meaning you could just toss rookies out in the open to take pot-shots. not to mention, you said that it's "no biggie" to lose _fourteen soldiers_. how does that make any sense? eu lets you simply point and click to where you want to go. there's a cover system that makes you think about where you're putting your soldiers; do you go for low cover to get a better shot or high cover for better defence? there's actually a story that's more than text dumps from completing research, and losing your top soldiers is a seriously bad thing that forces you to re-train rookies from the ground up. to be fair, xcom '94 does have a funny charm to it, as is common with most 90's pc games. but it's as easy to understand as learning a new language and filled to the brim with unnecessary features (why is crouching a thing. why.)

Bullshit, watch how the screen blacks out then glitches after 2:01 before the mission results screen is shown to us. If you watched the mission he did on that small UFO he stunned a single alien and killed 3, but the results screen shows 2 live aliens recovered and 3 killed. This result screen that he hurries through must be hand picked from another mission. Also I noticed that he supposedly recovered 1 alien power source, 2 alien navigation, and 50 Elerium from this small UFO mission. So, why later in the video does he then have to manufacture himself 1 alien power source if he already has one he captured, and when you pause @ 3:36 the available quantity of Elerium-115 is now only 35 even though he supposedly recouped 50 from the small UFO mission and hadn't spent Elerium-115 on anything else up to that point yet.. Not to mention also the effectiveness of his soldiers even with the basic rifles equipped. When I played the game again just the other day it took 2 regular rifle rounds to kill those small grays on beginner setting while this guy is laying them out with one, and every soldier is typically wildly inaccurate shooting everything on the map other than their target. This guy is like first shot first kill every click, this whole video rubbed me wrong with how easy a time he had and he also never showed himself selling a single item for some extra spending cash the entire playthrough.

You should first read something about the game mechanics before making these wild assumptions. You should also work on your counting. In the first mission, 4 aliens are shot and 1 is stunned. However, aliens that are shot (especially with weak weapons) don't always end up dead, they are sometimes only stunned, like in this case. I manufacture one power source because Avenger needs two to be built, now that isn't hard to understand, is it? The Elerium is lower than 50 because manufacturing 5 heavy plasma clips consumes 15 units. Try pausing at 2:53, genius.

@@lukasvychopen4874 K, a fair enough rebuttal ty. How are the soldiers so effective with their basic rifles though? Why are the grays taken down with 1 shot from the basic rifles where it is ALWAYS 2 shots for me to take a gray down on beginner setting? Why is it that your stock soldiers are so accurate with their auto shot typically hitting and killing at range on their very first attempts repeatedly? The typical Xcom experience is the soldiers shooting the ground, a hill, and a fence off screen because the accuracy is so low.

@@SWIFTY_WINS: Sectoids are physically weakest aliens in the game (along with Ethereals), so I don't think it's unusual to take them down with a single rifle shot. Also, what you are seeing is not a "typical X-Com experience", because all the eleven segments (divided by saves) were replayed individually many times over to get the optimal time. So what you are seeing in a video is just the attempt where I got particularly lucky and everything went super-smooth. That's why the run is called "segmented".
