Pro tip: the hunger, thirst, and exhaustion meters still increase when you fast travel. Unsurprising, since time passes during fast travel as though you had walked in a straight line between the two points. If you want to do a hardcore speedrun like this, you usually need to plan a route to avoid fast travelling more than a few times.
yep, fast travel causing the need meters to plummet is annoying since it seems to cause it to go down faster than if you just manually walked to the location
It does. Players run everywhere because why would you walk, fast travel goes at walking speed. Try walking from Novac to the 188holding the walk button, it takes forever. That is what fast travelling simulates.
In case anyone was wondering, when playing Fallout: New Vegas Hardcore Mode, if you bring up your pipboy and drink 40 bottles of whiskey, you will instantly die from dehydration upon resuming the game. 👍
I have this mental image of the courier desperately trying to convince Lanius to back off as they're dying of thirst, and Lanius just slowly backs away because they're being freaked out by this madwoman flailing their arms around while making violent coughing noises.
Um, I'm sorry I know I'm supposed to be quite intimidating right now and you seem to be in a hurry but I can't actually hear you under this massive helmet I'm wearing, mind speaking up? No, no I'm not taking it off, it's like my whole deal visually speaking. Use your outside voice, what are you dieing of thirst or something? Uh... ma'am? Well. That problem solved itself. Right, off to do some cardinal direction based monstering.
@@5oclock_Charlie he made a mistake in his script, 16 minutes times 6 points is what equals 96 points, so it's correct (as 6 points per minute in H20) it's just that he talked about "9 minutes into this recording" and mixed the numbers up
There’s an answer as to why the thirst meter jumped up in such a short time frame. You still lose hunger, sleep, and thirst whenever you fast travel since it is pushing the in game time forward which is the only thing actually calculating the survival needs meters.
fast travel time is calculated as moving in a strait line from where you are to where your going at walking speed. so generally manually running everywhere will take less time. a few exceptions would be if you fast traveled from remenents bunker to redrock drug lab as you would fast travel in a strait line about 100m , but to run around the mountain is about a 2km trip.
@MrGhosta5 this is true. I was just answering his question as to why his thirst was rising so fast. Honestly the only way to really do this challenge with ease is to just completely plan out your trip ahead of time so that it’s basically one line, and not fast travel unless it’s truly necessary.
BiL The point is: If he refuses to use modded locations that aren’t in the game because he thinks it’s like cheating, why is he using guns that aren’t in the game that tend to be better than 90% of the vanilla gun roster? It’s inconsistent is the damn point OP was trying to make
@@GothicXlightning i have new vegas so i might do a punch only playthrough on xbox 360 edit: on very hard which ive never beaten a fallout game on anything above normal
"And so the Courier who had cheated death- wait.. he just died from dehydration? Right after changing the wastelands forever? Well that's disappointing..."
Adam Burditt well only certain types of games for me. I don’t have the reflexes for those “run around, shoot, and be the last man standing” types but I like Skyrim, Fallout, Don’t Starve, Civilizations, basically Roll Playing and Simulation and Survival. All the best to you and yours!

@@desireKA9 I'm crazy OCD with games like that, to the point I had to stop playing them. I didn't have a problem beating it on Hardcore mode, but I tried playing it through twice like I played Fallout 3 and what happens is the save file just gets bigger and bigger and bigger and you get to the point where the game freezes up on you, especially when you enter huge places like the NCR base. Sane people probably didn't have too many problems with it. :)
Mitten seems to have an affinity for Snuffles. He always heals him on like every NV playthrough and he never kills him. Guess stone coils killers can have a soft spot.
@@xaryous3530 He still relies on spamming stimpaks to get through difficult areas, so beds don't completely solve the issue. Combine that with only being allowed to use a 10 mm pistol with very limited ammo, a baseball bat, a baton and fists, and we could have an interesting playthrough.
@@michaeljaradeh6213 so first of all, he doesn't need Stimpaks because all he needs to do is sneak, and not take damage, he has literally done a play through where HE DOESN'T TAKE DAMAGE And beat the game of fallout 3. So yeah he can definitely beat fallout 3 with just the vault items because if he needs to fight he can, but majority of the game can be beat with no just speech skills and sneakily getting through areas
I don't usually leave comments but I wanted to say that during this crappy week I've been having watching your videos has brought a smile to my face, even if it's only for a few minutes at time.
time passes in game when you fast travel..... that's why it's going up more than the amount of time you've been playing. it's going up when no "gameplay" has happened because hours are going by when you're fast travelling
I've been binge watching your videos, and because of you I finally decided to get Fallout NV and I've been having so much fun with it! I absolutely love your videos! Thank you for keeping me occupied while I'm trapped in my house!!
4:03 They propably "collided" with the tents side wall or the cord going to the ground. Things like Spears and the stuff you fire out of the junk jet might have a hilariously oversized colission box, as far as the environment is concerned. It could also be that the game has different movement and weapon fire colission boxes, with the tents being big.
I recently found out that when you enter the Lonesome Road DLC area, you get everything restored, except for health and radiation, so your hunger, hydration and sleep get to 0. That's pretty much exploitable in many ways, so you could use that for living much longer than ~3 hours.
The comment directly above this says the same thing but about Fallout 1. Personally, I think you should engage in arena combat to decide which game he does it in.
You have manipulate the random number generator to the point where it would be effectively impossible to clear the starting vault, I think. I don't remember too much of the game past there, so if you can run and talk your way through to the end, it might be possible.
As I had reflected upon my childhood challenge of beating Fallout 2 without killing anyone, I'm going to go with an easy Yes unless I'm forgetting something. You can avoid all combat scenarios in some fashion, so at that point it just becomes not setting off traps, and not aggroing things which damage you before escaping them. You should also be able to complete at least some ending for the main quests of each of the locations. And this would be even easier because you would be allowed to engage in very one-sided sniping combat. The very start would require some resets to avoid the critters. Random travel encounters would probably take some resets as well. But I'm sure you could just do a high Perception+Agility sniper build and quickly be able to take on small engagements by crippling enemies.
I'll be honest, Sunday keeps rolling around and the upload always catches me by surprise. But it's a very welcomed surprise. Now if only I could remember its every Sunday....🤔 Love the content, my dude. 👍🏻
It never occurred to me before to mention that as a child, I'd taken on the challenge of beating Fallout 2 but also as many areas' questlines as possible to some conclusion without killing a single character. "Killing" being that a kill is added to your character sheet's Kill tab, not that I didn't kill plenty of people. The "Bid Bad Boss" final boss would always be added to the tally upon game completion. But you could do a remarkable amount of Fallout 2's content through dialogue options or non-combat sabotage the game had around for sneaky players to utilize. More than that though, you could kill friendly NPCs without hostility or a Kill tally by feeding them a huge number of Super Stimpacks and then resting to pass a lot of time at once. The game would then dump all the Super Stimpacks' negative side effect damage in a bundle that could kill healable characters but not count as a "kill". After all, all you did was feed them healing chems. It's not really your fault they overdosed on your healing medicine. I feel like the 3D games in the series offer far less in terms of ways to progress quests in the game in creative ways like that which also don't break the game.
@@CyranofromBergerac You could get the key card from a speech check I think but, if not, Super Stimpack exploit would kill the Pres or VP or whoever had it.
@@jaeusa160 President, and no, unless it's in the unofficial patch that adds cut content (I haven't completed that) the president just does a speech loop. As far as I'm aware killing him is the only option unless a perk will allow you to steal it. I don't normally play as thieves.
@@roger5555ful Im pretty sure the counters tick in real-time when traveling on foot, but use in-game time when fast traveling (this explains the massive sudden jump), which would make going on foot always more efficient in terms of managing survival meters.
@@user-no3tu9kh3p sure, but you can cross the entire world map, even without a straight line, in what, 20 minutes? If you fast travel the same distance, hours of in-game time pass. So running there on foot ticks your meters way less as a result.
@@user-no3tu9kh3p I don't understand your point. If it ticks in real-time when walking, but ticks using in-game time when fast travelling, this explains why fast traveling the same distance causes a much larger jump in meters than walking it manually. I'm not sure how many ways I can rephrase this to make it clearer.
@@user-no3tu9kh3p Possibly, but if that's the case, significantly more in-game time passes when fast traveling than walking the same distance. The end result is the same. Fast-travelling means much larger increases to meters than walking it, which IS what's observed. Explaining the minutia is academic at this point.
When you fast travel, the time of NV moves on too. So if it's night, it might be morning when you arrive. Gives the illusion that your character walked there rather than teleported. So that affects your Food/Sleep/Water levels. I'm not sure, but I think that fast travel tends to up the score more than manually walking somewhere in most cases, but that's based off rough memory from a gamemode I haven't played in a year.
I didn't know you even did this challenge, I loved MATN's version, I've been trying this challenge on Fallout 4, and I've been hoping that someone else would try it, but nobody has, I know why, it's pretty tough, but I started a playthrough of it and I'm almost done, hope you do this one one day.
Senza is personally better than MATN in my book. Who doesn't want to see a man break down after trying to see him beat border lands 3 with the power glove
Kirply Gaming Many a True Nerd is like the granddaddy of challenge runs. I feel like you can’t compare them much as Mitten Squad and Senza make quick 10 minute, and more comedic videos, and MaTN makes in depth let’s plays
Lobster Town Many a True Nerd also has the same psychotic potential as the Joker with the demeanor of a dad figuring out a Sudoku, he’s an absolute legend.
I'd like to see a Fallout 4 run where you can only use the items found in the Sanctuary House's bunker. No looting, and you can only barter with the items found there.
"Its weird how my dehydration keeps jumping by 100s of points." Fast travels. "It happened again, gosh this is just baffling. Almost as if my character is slowly walking across the wasteland multiple times." Love you Paul, never change.
I like to think that the courier just keeled over the second the credits rolled in this playthrough. Like, the legate just watches some visibly starving woman drag herself up to his cliff, blows up the general, and then just dies then and there.
“Snuffle’s leg got the Elite Treatment option because he played basketball and therefore was far more deserving of my professional medical treatment than any of the ordinary peasants.” Lmaooo I’m dead
I got this idea when playing hardcore mode in New Vegas while fighting powder gangers. I survived, but the dynamite crippled all my limbs, which made the trek to Primm a hell of a challenge. Can you beat Fallout New Vegas with all your limbs permanently crippled?
@@erikho6936 yes, you can still fight. the full break down of effects. Head: blurred vision, and ringing noises, also -4 perception arms: less melee damage and less accuracy body: less endurance, and more likely to get staggered when getting hit. Legs: lower movement speed. none of them prevent you from fighting, but it's significantly harder.
This is pretty late, but I was under the impression that fast traveling in hardcore mode will make your hunger thirst and tiredness much worse because it accounts for the time it would have taken to walk to the location
Yknow I would be intersted to see a mitten squad video on the stanley parable with all its endings. I know its not the typical game but i feel like there would be some hilarity to that
Can you, In ONE sitting without any non FORCED detections, best every assassins creeed game, in chronological order, if not, how far do you get? Just main quests
@@markmcgehee3864 The point being is that there is even non-'forced' missions every game where you cant avoid detection. For example, the first Rome mission in Brotherhood requires you to assassinate a guy surrounded by 15 dudes without having unlocked any way to lure them away yet.

You should also be able to complete at least some ending for the main quests of each of the locations.
And this would be even easier because you would be allowed to engage in very one-sided sniping combat.
The very start would require some resets to avoid the critters. Random travel encounters would probably take some resets as well. But I'm sure you could just do a high Perception+Agility sniper build and quickly be able to take on small engagements by crippling enemies.
R.IP Paul :( You made great impacts on many

ah yes the great kung flu
I'll be honest, Sunday keeps rolling around and the upload always catches me by surprise. But it's a very welcomed surprise. Now if only I could remember its every Sunday....🤔 Love the content, my dude. 👍🏻
Having a mouth so dry that every word that comes out sounds like "nmanmmnu" doesn't affect your charisma or ability to win over others.
Okay.

Jk
It would have, if his charisma wasn't already so low that no one noticed any difference.
"How much time was left?"
"You dont want to know."
11:35 actually hurts a bit now
He knew in advance, as someone doing the same and fighting against it because of Paul. It's a slippery slope, and a hard one to drop.
“I arrived in Sloan, like a virus in a new country.”
Well this aged well
It was uploaded in march 2020
This is Mitten beating New Vegas without chugging down monster energy drink.
It never occurred to me before to mention that as a child, I'd taken on the challenge of beating Fallout 2 but also as many areas' questlines as possible to some conclusion without killing a single character. "Killing" being that a kill is added to your character sheet's Kill tab, not that I didn't kill plenty of people.
The "Bid Bad Boss" final boss would always be added to the tally upon game completion.
But you could do a remarkable amount of Fallout 2's content through dialogue options or non-combat sabotage the game had around for sneaky players to utilize. More than that though, you could kill friendly NPCs without hostility or a Kill tally by feeding them a huge number of Super Stimpacks and then resting to pass a lot of time at once. The game would then dump all the Super Stimpacks' negative side effect damage in a bundle that could kill healable characters but not count as a "kill". After all, all you did was feed them healing chems. It's not really your fault they overdosed on your healing medicine.
I feel like the 3D games in the series offer far less in terms of ways to progress quests in the game in creative ways like that which also don't break the game.
Gotta get that presidential key card for the battle with Frank. Just wished we could turn the turrents off so I could battle 1 on 1.
@@CyranofromBergerac You could get the key card from a speech check I think but, if not, Super Stimpack exploit would kill the Pres or VP or whoever had it.
@@jaeusa160 President, and no, unless it's in the unofficial patch that adds cut content (I haven't completed that) the president just does a speech loop. As far as I'm aware killing him is the only option unless a perk will allow you to steal it. I don't normally play as thieves.
@@CyranofromBergerac Then I must've healed him to death with Super Stimpack overdose.
Can you beat fallout 4 VR while laying on the ground. I tried it once, but I think it would be fun to watch Paul try.
Yes
RIP, man. Hope you are resting peacefully now.
Right at the end when Paul says “cut the narrator off” I got an ad😂😂
Can You Beat Elmo’s Number Journey without killing anyone?
Possible challenges only
@@Skullhawk13 i know it's joke but he's done plenty of impossible challenges
Congrats!
11:30 when you fast travel, it increases more, idk how much exactly
By how much time is spent reaching that destination on foot let's say about 5-6 ingame hours from the strip to the bunker
@@roger5555ful Im pretty sure the counters tick in real-time when traveling on foot, but use in-game time when fast traveling (this explains the massive sudden jump), which would make going on foot always more efficient in terms of managing survival meters.
@@user-no3tu9kh3p sure, but you can cross the entire world map, even without a straight line, in what, 20 minutes? If you fast travel the same distance, hours of in-game time pass. So running there on foot ticks your meters way less as a result.
@@user-no3tu9kh3p I don't understand your point. If it ticks in real-time when walking, but ticks using in-game time when fast travelling, this explains why fast traveling the same distance causes a much larger jump in meters than walking it manually. I'm not sure how many ways I can rephrase this to make it clearer.
@@user-no3tu9kh3p Possibly, but if that's the case, significantly more in-game time passes when fast traveling than walking the same distance. The end result is the same. Fast-travelling means much larger increases to meters than walking it, which IS what's observed. Explaining the minutia is academic at this point.
When you fast travel, the time of NV moves on too. So if it's night, it might be morning when you arrive. Gives the illusion that your character walked there rather than teleported. So that affects your Food/Sleep/Water levels. I'm not sure, but I think that fast travel tends to up the score more than manually walking somewhere in most cases, but that's based off rough memory from a gamemode I haven't played in a year.
The fact this is in trending warms my heart.
I didn't know you even did this challenge, I loved MATN's version, I've been trying this challenge on Fallout 4, and I've been hoping that someone else would try it, but nobody has, I know why, it's pretty tough, but I started a playthrough of it and I'm almost done, hope you do this one one day.
I've been binging your content ever since I've discovered you a few days back, you have great vids man. Keep up the great work.
Senza fans: hey i've seen this one, i've seen this one. It's a classic
Mitten squad fans: What do you mean, its brand new
Senza? You mean Many a True Nerd?
Senza is personally better than MATN in my book. Who doesn't want to see a man break down after trying to see him beat border lands 3 with the power glove
Ymfah gang
Kirply Gaming Many a True Nerd is like the granddaddy of challenge runs. I feel like you can’t compare them much as Mitten Squad and Senza make quick 10 minute, and more comedic videos, and MaTN makes in depth let’s plays
Lobster Town Many a True Nerd also has the same psychotic potential as the Joker with the demeanor of a dad figuring out a Sudoku, he’s an absolute legend.
4:47 Next video "Can you beat life while John Wick is hunting you?"
well you could beat somebody elses live in meantime
When you do a no eating, no sleeping, no drinking challenge and become a psychotic mass murderer with explosives.
11:52 that comment hits a little differently now...
Do “Can you beat Fallout 1 without taking any damage?”
That, will be VERY difficult
He's gonna need a high agility, so he can go first.
Can you beat fallout one or 2 without clicking on anything.
@@IamaPERSON perception affects that. Agility changes the amount of agility points.
You take no damage during the speedrun.
4:04 "Though I doubt even his Star Platinum can deflect so many spears"
I'd like to see a Fallout 4 run where you can only use the items found in the Sanctuary House's bunker. No looting, and you can only barter with the items found there.

Yeah, MittenSquad does a lot of challenge runs Many A True Nerd’s done years ago.
8:16 It looks like you used the sex change console command on the Omerta thug.
"Its weird how my dehydration keeps jumping by 100s of points." Fast travels. "It happened again, gosh this is just baffling. Almost as if my character is slowly walking across the wasteland multiple times." Love you Paul, never change.
I like to think that the courier just keeled over the second the credits rolled in this playthrough. Like, the legate just watches some visibly starving woman drag herself up to his cliff, blows up the general, and then just dies then and there.

I got this idea when playing hardcore mode in New Vegas while fighting powder gangers. I survived, but the dynamite crippled all my limbs, which made the trek to Primm a hell of a challenge.
Can you beat Fallout New Vegas with all your limbs permanently crippled?
Can you even fight?
@@erikho6936 yes, you can still fight.
the full break down of effects.
Head: blurred vision, and ringing noises, also -4 perception
arms: less melee damage and less accuracy
body: less endurance, and more likely to get staggered when getting hit.
Legs: lower movement speed.
none of them prevent you from fighting, but it's significantly harder.
This is pretty late, but I was under the impression that fast traveling in hardcore mode will make your hunger thirst and tiredness much worse because it accounts for the time it would have taken to walk to the location
Can we all just take a moment to commemorate his aim? It's like he's playing with an inverted mouse!
One of your best runs yet, actually pretty intense
You should do a “Can you beat vanilla Fallout: New Vegas after using project Nevada for so long without getting bored”
4:04 ; 11:42 When the Courier wants to Imitate his Favorite Anime Character.
4:12 You just forgot to unpause time after 5 seconds. Now The World is broken.

fast traveling increases all needs by a lot. I do not know if distance matters
Was about to sleep. Guess I'll stay awake for 14 minutes and 52 seconds more.
rest easy.
Rest in peace
Yknow I would be intersted to see a mitten squad video on the stanley parable with all its endings. I know its not the typical game but i feel like there would be some hilarity to that
I am pretty sure that fast traveling can boost the rate that you get dehydrated
Do “Can you beat Assassin’s Creed Revelations Without Being detected”
Can you, In ONE sitting without any non FORCED detections, best every assassins creeed game, in chronological order, if not, how far do you get?
Just main quests
Without dying of boredom*
@@markmcgehee3864 Every AC game has forced combat encounters.
Rainbow Dashtruction yes... your point?
@@markmcgehee3864 The point being is that there is even non-'forced' missions every game where you cant avoid detection. For example, the first Rome mission in Brotherhood requires you to assassinate a guy surrounded by 15 dudes without having unlocked any way to lure them away yet.
Remember when Senza did this, but with Fallout 4?
Gosh, that was a pain to watch. His poor soul.

Next challenge can be “can you beat fallout 4 by only using dog meat”
Or your choice of fallout
No offense but he kind of already did this, indirectly though. He didn't do it the way you are saying but he has done companion only runs.
