Half-Life 2: DWaHMoV (Done With a High Magnitude of Velocity) - General

Wow that Black Mesa East gravity gun practice was pretty sick

are they doing this frame by frame or memory? cus it's like pitch black and they're navigating like wizards

Did they just fly over the goddamn ocean what the fuck is this magic

Is there some fuckery with the movement model or physics going on or is it actually possible to gain such momentum jumping backwards?

Because fuck physics.

holy christ. i'd be terrified if i was a combine soldier.

[QUOTE=Darktooth77;41339284]are they doing this frame by frame or memory? cus it's like pitch black and they're navigating like wizards[/QUOTE] pretty sure its a real time speedrun

that was cool as heck

[QUOTE=ShazzyFreak0;41339532]holy christ. i'd be terrified if i was a combine soldier.[/QUOTE] no, you'd just be confused because of all the orange blurs happening lately

Except, they're going backwards, and reducing forwards momentum is basically increasing backwards momentum.

Why does bumping their heads with a prop make them "move?" :v:

[QUOTE=Darktooth77;41339284]are they doing this frame by frame or memory? cus it's like pitch black and they're navigating like wizards[/QUOTE] All memory, because I'm pretty sure that Hourglass doesn't work with HL2, or many games at all for that matter...

[QUOTE=mon_ons;41339802]All memory, because I'm pretty sure that Hourglass doesn't work with HL2, or many games at all for that matter...[/QUOTE] they still havent added mouse support to that?

[QUOTE=99$-Plate;41339798]Why does bumping their heads with a prop make them "move?" :v:[/QUOTE] I'm guessing that it's some failsafe in case they get stuck making them teleport to the next position in their the scripted scene.

[QUOTE=Mike Tyson;41339821]they still havent added mouse support to that?[/QUOTE] I don't think it's even in development anymore.

[QUOTE=mon_ons;41339854]I don't think it's even in development anymore.[/QUOTE] I don't even know what Hourglass is :v:

this is a speedrun that i like, showing actual movement skills and tons of thinking not like the portal speedrun where he just glitches through everything, the whole video was basically watching noclip

Amazing. Its shit like this that makes speedrunning amazing

Sonic needs to take a page or two from Gordon.

mfw he got in the elevator with Breen

Half-Life runs will never cease to amaze me.

[QUOTE=J!NX;41337427]the only immature on I see here is the one who thinks he's mr superior maturity here.[/QUOTE] I think I can call myself more mature than them: I am not the one who can't stand still for half a second without staring at someone's ass or shooting a dick into the wall. You can't say that is not immature, and one could even argue that it is disrespectful to the characters (whom Valve took pains not to sexualize (extremely rare in the industry)) and to women in general.

The way they occasionally dispatched enemies was phenomenal.

[QUOTE=person11;41337051]They are as good at being immature 12 year olds as they are speedrunning, clearly women are mysterious creatures to them[/QUOTE] to you* nothing mysterious about dat ass and tits [editline]7th July 2013[/editline] few moments in this speedrun left me wondering though, in the canals. the part where the gates magically opened, and the part where you gotta blow the gates up, he just sort of sniped the barrels through the gate from afar.

I liked the part where gordon went fast

Breen starts his speech to Gordon as Gordon super jumps up to the portal and starts wailing on it with Energy Balls Breen is still talking as Alyx gets gunned the fuck down by a gunship, all while Alyx, Breen, and GMan are all talking simultaneously. Truly beautiful

It was only one of the players doing it (Matmo), and even then while it's not really all that funny, it's just really awkward attempts at keeping the players interested instead of bored. It's like around ten different speedrunners, just some random folks with a common interest of going through a game as fast as possible, doing speedruns of a game that's nearly ten years old in different segments played interchangeably between them. Not a message in the gaming industry about sexism. No need to be severely up in arms about it like it was a Pewdiepie series of rape jokes over and over.

I suggest grabbing the (legit) torrent of this. Not only is it higher quality but there is also another audio track where they talk about how hard some of the segments are and some tricks that they used. There was quite a bit of trial and error and thinking on this run. [url]http://thepiratebay.sx/torrent/8652026[/url]
