Beltmatic - Reach Level 10 - Speedrun (5:55)
มุมมอง 12714 วันที่ผ่านมา
Welcome to my Beltmatic speedrun of reaching level 10. As with most of my speedruns this is not an official record but just for fun since I used a saved map on which I practiced a lot and because I even switched segments to get the best time! However, I was so impressed by the current records that I wanted to use the opportunity to show some different designs to maybe improve them even further ...

      Interestingly, this was the only offensive mission where I did not need any glitches in my speedrun. I really just stormed the castle and won in about a minute! Even on very hard! But I agree with the cheese, that already made me feel unhappy back then. Thats why I was relieved when I found the bonus strategies. They are also somewhere hidden in my channel. ^^

    Hey everyone, I wish you all a happy new year! I know this is not the video you have been hoping for, but I really wanted to finish this run before I put this game aside and I am happy that I finally managed to do it! O:-) Please dont be sad, because there is also good news! I stumbled over the classic Stronghold Crusader - Crossbow Commander minigame and as usually, played it much more than I should have. I will upload the video of my best try next weekend. In the mean time, you can try this game yourself and feel a little bit nostalgic. Its still downloadable on the Firefly Download Page! :-D See you next week! :-)

  • @Storkz0re
    @Storkz0re 20 วันที่ผ่านมา

    The Craftsmen after bringing the weapon to the armory return to their workplace and then go to the stockpile for the new material. Then why did you place the armory near the stockpile? Precious place around the stockpile should be used for craftsmen. Idealy you place weapon crafters in between the armory and stockpile. Or you just like your design and don't want to try hard?

    • @LordBalder
      @LordBalder 19 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Oh trust me, I tried very hard! ^^ The minimum time is set by the two blacksmiths. So the position of armory and iron tile on the storage are chosen to minimize the walking distance for both of them. Blacksmiths move directly from armory to storage on their way back, so a short way there is better. I chose the build order to change the exit of the second blacksmith from NW to NE to be even closer to the stockpile. The only way I could have sped up sword production further would have been a third blacksmith but that would have slowed down bow production too much... So the rest of the gold is used to build as many fletchers as possible to catch up with the swords. Their build order seems a little strange as fletcher 3 has the shortest path, but I am sure I tried all combinations and this one was the best I found. There is no use in building him 2 months earlier when his final bow does not matter for the goal... In the end, the last bow was delivered only a few seconds after the last sword, so thats a pretty decent timing in my opinion! :-)

    • @Storkz0re
      @Storkz0re 19 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @LordBalder Amazing, you really did. Hell of a knowledge behind! I also did some benchmarks yesterday. I tested the weapon production speed roughly. Very unexpected, that the Sword production is even a little bit higher, than Bow production. Maybe because the guy, who makes bows, walks extremely slow

      @LordBalder 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Its not a cheat of course, but a combination of two glitches. The first being the iron glitch which gets triggered when two workers try to take one iron bar at the same and lets you pick infinite iron from the mine. And the second is the common resource teleporting, which together with the iron glitch gives you super fast iron! :-)

      Yeah, the outlaw events are tricky in this one. They are not timed but instead subject to certain conditions, one of them being religion, thats what the early chapel is for. I think there are ones for meat and apples, too. When in doubt, check the mission settings in the editor. I also did that to get enough troops to survive the waves!

      Well, for my highscore, I definitely survived for more than a few years. You need lots of archers of course, and I used ballistas on the towers to deal with the armoured units. Fire might also work. I think you can use boiling oil if i remember correctly.

      Correct. There is an invasion which appears every 2 months and the map creator forgot to deactivate the event when the mission timer runs out... You cant kill all enemies in time without signpost slaughtering and even then I needed too many troops that the attacking armies were capped out due to the sprite limit... Its very frustrating. I even thought of recruiting 1500 ladderman to block the incoming waves completely, but in the end, I took the approach in the video and tried to recruit enough crossbowmen before the infinite waves to deal with the attacks.

      Do you have any specific situations in mind? In general, its because im running all the time, so the melee guys cant catch me and the ranged guys shoot behind be because they dont take my speed into account. Later, I had my tanks in front to get focused and my fragile mages were following at a safe distance. My recruits may have been lacking a few levels compared to my normal groups, but they are not too underleveled, so they can take several hits without dying. :-) There are however a few sections in the second third which were indeed rather impossible to run through with a mage thats like 20 levels behind. In those cases I had to use Invisibility to run by everyone unnoticed. My clone at 45:05 is a good example of what would have happened without it! >:-) Oh, well, and playing on easy helped of course. ^^

Now I want to try to run with one character to the gypsy camp in the forest, and then collect all the other characters. Another option is to gather a gang of only melee characters and roll around the entire kingdom. Controlling one character is boring for me.
