the axis skew is so fucking cool, it's like samus knows that she's locked to a 2D plane so she runs against the invisible wall
Oh wow, that's cool XD That's a cool way of putting it, good point
Axis skew may be one of the most cursed things I've seen in a Metroid game.
I like watching the current any% , but I hate doing the camera lock, axis skew, and invincibility glitches. So NMG for me lol
Incincibility is pretty easy but i dont even wann try the other 2
Camera lock isn't too hard to navigate actually. Axis skew is a lot more painful imo
@@kanajian I just don't have fun using them, thats all. I like the NMG route more.
Same for me.. shinesink and axis skew break the game a little too much for my taste and start approaching the realms of the xray scope glitch in super metroid.
@@increase9896 its a great watch to see just how broken the game is though.
Thanks for listing all of these, maybe contact summoning salt for when the inevitable Dread Speedrun History video is getting made.
this is insane! Imagine if we can start having more 0% speedruns with that camera Lock and invincibility
Do the powerups count towards completion percentage?
@@sluttyMapleSyrup Missile tanks, bomb tanks, and energy tanks do. Major upgrades do not.
There is also another intended skip with early screw attack just before the experiment boss fight, by using infinite bomb jumps or a ball spark in the room before the lava tunnel, which lets you continue from there and skip the two chozo robots fight. It is not a big deal at all for speed running, but for someone not comfortable using glitches or skiping that boss it is pretty cool.
I just wanted to mention it, there are plenty of intended skips in the game, specially if you are counting optional collectibles.
Yeah, it's a neat little thing, but it's in the same category as early super missiles and cross bombs that were mentioned, as well as getting bombs before Kraid. A sequence break that's slower than just doing it normally. All of these actually have the same problem: they involve going off to go grab an item, and then returning to the point where you went to go get them, making a circle. Early grapple gets away with this because getting grapple normally is also a circle, while allowing for a large number of shortcuts.
@@AdmiralTails Yeah I agree, it is kind of an overall problem with the structure of the map, the game allways drop you exactly where you need to be, so any amount of side tracking is a potential waste of time.
Gravity suit early is pretty useful though, at least if you are playing without glitchess.
And I do like that screwattack early after gravity, makes you able to skip the robot guards and to just continue after experiment.
I like doing it and collect powerups in cataris and in my way to ghavoran.
And early super missiles is kind of neat to use against some bosses early.
Scan pulse early I think is a very good find for a first playthrough.
Cross bombs early is basically completely useless though. The only use for that was fighting a boss way earlier than intended, which can be fun the first time, but yeah... pretty useless otherwise.
@@diegog1853 I do Early Cross Bombs because it lets me get Space Jump before Storm Missiles, and I prefer taking the piss out of Escue when given the chance.
@@diegog1853 You can get space jump earlier than intended with it.
@@diegog1853 I'm now incorporating the early ice missile skip into my runs because that lets you skip the spin-boost entirely and go straight to space-jump.
The speedrunning community never disappoints.
I found an interesting movement quirk: when you're underwater, if you morph as you leave a ledge, Samus moves faster.
How fast?
although i just started doing my first steps in speedruns, your videos are the most educating and understandable for the tiny guys
They've been really helpful
I took a break from speedrunning this game for like a week and I come back to another hour saved. Geez.
Great idea to do a recap. Can’t believe its been a month a
ready! Keep on rockin
Thanks for an overview on the speedrunning method! Your videos are appreciated
This is really interesting and helpful!
Thanks a lot, this video alone catched me up to speed with Dread's discoveries.
absolutely wild. great work with the video
Thanks I asked for an updated tutorial video and this is basically that!
Great analysis! Thanks for uploading!
I was so confused when I saw runners going to dog boss and restarting from checkpoint lol
yeah same
Did he just say blind play all the way to screw attack? That sounds insanely difficult
Oatsngoats has a tutorial for it, it's crazy hard
Crazy stuff! Love it! 😁❤️👍
when I found Water Bomb Jump and saw the community go on a wild chase after this discovery on what crazy stuff you could do with it I thought "oh my god the speedrun was just blown wide open and we are going to skip so many things now! Any% will be crazy!" only to see a few days later that it was only used in like two spots and the tricks that people managed to find afterwards were so much more crazy!
I thought the game was really solid and there werent going to be that many skips but DAMN the game was bent over backwards
Never think there are not going to be few skips or tricks for a popular game as more people means the faster it gets bent over
Samus so broken running into the third dimension to gain monentum
Always impressed how well shared all these techniques are; I struggled through the game on normal, this is like witchcraft :-D
These are crazy glitches! I just did my third playthrough of this game and looking forward to trying some of these out maybe. Cheers!
I hope MercurySteam fixes the pause menus while using the camera lock glitch, but not the camera lock glitch itself. Being able to check where I am on the map would make this glitch so much more accessible.
Speed Runners will never cease to amaze me.
About the Ledge Warp you show in minute 4:00, I just want to share my own findings (others might have probably found this by themselves too): when Early Screw Attack with Space Jump was found, I also tried seeing if you could skip Gravity Suit. I got all possible Energy Tanks and Parts that don't require Power Bombs, Gravity Suit and Wave Beam. I was able (after many,, many attempts) to go through the cold rooms without glitches like a Ledge Warp and just pure movement which I thought it was a great achievement for me. Of course I also got stuck in the water shaft but I'm glad speedrunners found a way through!
The fact that this video is almost 9 minutes long is crazy to me! There are just that many exploits in this game.
Thanks for making this! I'd been working on a 0% run and practicing stuff roughly up to the point of Speed Booster and realizing, no, I can't Invincibility my way to Super Missiles on 0% because going back I'll die in Dairon from cold damage and there's an upgrade I can't avoid if I try. (First EMMI skip, and early Phantom cloak are something I'm starting to get faster at, namely the fourth shot on the former and the latter I feel like I have the angle to shoot at more consistent now; early Grapple Beam, early Bombs, Invincibility Glitch, Water Bomb Jump and did some practice on the Shine sink clip but only was able to sometimes get the sinking phase done before my left hand was hurting too much to consistently Flash Shift properly). I'd seen some of the others but had no idea what they were without much explanation (Axis Screw) and didn't know the intended use of Camera Lock. ALSO didn't know the Dash Melee Pseudowave worked for that blob in Burenia so that'll let me grab Flash Shift and it pre-Kraid...if I even bother with him now. That all said, not sure if I'll bother with Shine sink clip memorization, Axis Skew, or Camera Lock for a 0% run since the more game-breaking a glitch is the less I like using it and if they're just straight-up not allowed in NMG or any%.
Amazing video to give back to the community and those who are following the speedrun madness :) Excellent work and good luck going sub 1:10 :)
great, this was needed.
*Samus:* "You think you're safe?"
0:28
IT'S ALREADY BEEN A MONTH?!?!?!
I have been enjoying this game _way_ too much...
My biggest concern with these glitches is the barrier to entry with any%. I think I may start watching all bosses and 100% because honestly this kind of skips more of the game than I would like. Still the real astonishing part is that Mercury Steam hasn’t patched any of this yet, and I like to think that’s specifically for speedruns, because it’s not like the glitches are possible to do on accident or break the game. I actually remember doing the underwater bomb jump before knowing it was a glitch.
Yeah, that I can agree with or at least a category where there's more restrictions like glitchless or Boss Order...unless someone manages to a find a way to do Reverse Boss Order in this.
As a super casual speedrunner (and I do mean casual), any% at the moment is still very accessible. The shine sink clip is the only glitch I couldn't get at least semi consistently after 30 minutes of trying with a tutorial, and it's currently unused in any%. It's shockingly easy to navigate with camera lock. By far the most difficult part of the run is the 5 second hell-run when returning to dairon after grapple/screw
To be fair, underwater bomb jump isn't really a glitch. Everything is working as intended. Whether they realized it was possible or not is another thing all together.
I was watching this video on my switch, and TH-cam crashed on me when you said "this is how the speedrun looks" and for a sec I thought it was part of the video LMAO
Great Video! I always how on earth people find out this stuff...
Samus running towards you in a 2D game is not real, she can't hurt you.
Samus running towards you in a 2D game: 7:18
In my own runs, I do most of the intended skips. I do Early Cross Bombs because it lets me more or less get Space Jump early the intended way, which lets me skip around half of Ferenia. Then I get Gravity Suit via the Shinespark puzzle in Burenia. I don't do Early Supers because you still have to enter Ghavoran the normal way to get to Elun, and there are only two bosses, both very close to each other, you can get some use out of it, so the detour to get Supers just a little earlier just isn't worth it. I also do Water Bomb Jump because, ultimately, aside from skipping Spin Boost, it's mostly used to get a few pick-ups slightly early. I haven't tried the intended Early Screw Attack yet.
These glitches... totally nuts. :O
This is CRAZY
It's crazy how broken Metroid Dread is... I never thought we would be seeing such crazy glitches on speedruns.
It doesn't seem much more broken than Super, and has many moments intended to keep speedrunners and sequence-breakers from getting stuck. I haven't enjoyed breaking a game's progression path this much since Shadow Complex.
The main use for 5 crazy glitches:
Pseudo Wave Beam(Penetrate Beam)= Early Phantom Cloak
Invincibility......= Varia and Gravity Skip.
Ledge Warp and Camera Lock= Much early Screw Attack
Axis Skew........= Reach Core 6 without Gravity Suit.
Shine Sink Clip= ?
The rest of 2 are just high-tech skills:
Water Bomb Jump= Early Ice Missile
Early Screw Attack= Z-57 skip
Shine sink clip means as soon as Speed Booster you can access Blue Teleportal in Cataris to get to Screw Attack.
@@VivianKurayami So 3 glitches for Screw Attack.
Do any categories still use Shine Spark Clip and Edge Warp? I remember thinking those would be huge when I first heard about them, but now they seem to have been eliminated from the Any% category.
Crazy month for speedruns
Epic video
No more Invincibility glitch...there goes the suitless 01:11 Oatsngoats PB runs. V1.02 will be missed...RIP WR.
awesome video bro. i dont understand how people figure this shit out
This just makes me curious on the low% runs now.
great vid. is this music in the background from M. Prime?
Thanks, yes the 1st is from Metroid Dread and the last ones are from Metroid Prime!
I'm pretty sure the invincibility glitch just got patched because it wasnt intentional. So there goes Axis Skew as well.
I'm struggling with the pseudo wave beam with pause buffering on that same spot on artaria after early screw attack... are there any other more detailed explanations?
I wonder if there will ever be a TAS for dread, though given the randomness with the EMMI spawn points idk if it would even be possible xD
the amount of new skips that are coming to light is insane though
I wouldn't be surprised if someone eventually figures out how to do memory injects for the EMMIs and build consistency
I just played through metroid dread for the first time and I some how did axis skew right as a boss fight started
Any chance you could add captions to your video?
Goddamnit I wish I knew there was a tutorial for Shine Sink in here when I was learning it
Might've saved me a few hours or days lol
Thankfully the one I found for Axis Skew was reeeeeally good
But it was mostly a comment about the timing of the b press that felt like it lifted a huge road block
Also I'm REALLY surprised you don't see more ledge warp use in runs
You'd think teleporting across the whole ass map to reduce backtracking time would be useful as a layman
axis skew is horrifying
I wonder if the developers are aware of all this during this creation or even voluntarily leave ... Just saying that 🤷 😂
i have one question. How can u use the shinespark while you are spiral jumping? i just keep jumping or i fall
I made tutorial for using Shinesparks, but you gotta press Y and B at the same time while spinning midair: th-cam.com/video/BtKjha1qpK4/w-d-xo.html
@@Samura1man thank you bro
This isn't relevant to Metroid, but could you please share the OST that you used in the background?
I really liked some of the songs I heard, and I would like to add them to my playlist
These musics are from Metroid:
Dread - Lower Brinstar
Prime - Phendrana Drifts
Prime - Prologue
Prime - Magmoor Caverns
I thought pseudo was patched but my pro controller has super slight drift
How the hell do you learn how to navigate to the Screw Attack without being able to see anything? I really want to do a run with early Screw Attack, but that glitch just looks impossible to pull off.
Late game once you have everything you can go to that spot it starts at and just practice moving from there in a straight line towards Screw Attack's location. Yes there's a few odd spots requiring specific movement and jumps to get past and then the shinespark to end the camera lock. I know someone made a video detailing movement and the route to take
Suit skips are impossible now after the 1.03 update. While understandable, given the invulnerability glitch required was game-breaking and fairly easy to pull off (could be done by accident in casual play), it's still unfortunate for the speedrun community.
You forgot the how to steal the omega canon glitch.
It’s basically a shine sink clip
Is there a tutorial on how to steal the omega canon ?
@@tyronejennings599 3:00 do this, but in the central unit room in ghavoran
Have you ever stole the omega canon 😎?
I wonder if Nintendo is now going to patch these glitches out? I hope not, I just love seeing the any % time going down and down.
I don't think they will get patched, since there have been a couple of patches already, and nothing patched was useful for speedrunning. It seems like they know sequence breaks have always been an important part of Metroid games.
Oof
I was here for the first sub 1:30 run. Now look
One time I found a video showing off a Genshin Impact glitch that was useful to get to multiple areas of the map much faster and was otherwise harmless. In the comments someone said that they went ahead and reported it and eventually the glitch was patched. Needless to say everyone tore into them for that and judging from their replies they seemed to be completely oblivious as to why anyone would be upset with them for reporting it. They saw it as doing everyone a favor and said something along the lines of "it's a glitch, people don't want glitches in their game."
I wonder how they would react to a video like this.
Yeah but how do I shoot beam really fast like the pros
I’m glad I did my speedruns before these, it’s getting to that point we’re it’s just too far now
Suomi perkele
Invincibility was patched correct?
Yes, it doesn't work on 1.0.3 version anymore
The octopus boss is so easy. Is it even worth the skip?
Yes
Easy but long. Skipping the boss is actually one of the easiest skips tbh
How
Thanks to scalpers I'll never get a Switch :(
At this point, the any% category is so broken, it is more of a exhibition piece than a great way to play the game. I think incorporating some of these intended and unintended sequence breaks to make the game more open is how I would like to play the game eventually.
Yeah I love doing early grapple beam and early gravity suit, but some of the stuff they've found now seems a bit out of my league. I'd like if there was a "no major glitches" or "low glitch%" or something, or like he said in the video an "all bosses" category for less hardcore runners to try for.
They patch all these glitches know
Awesome video. BTW I'm like number 666
so many skips, soon the run will be sub 1 hour
what the fuck happened to this run lmao
If you know you have an accent you should add subtitle.
anyone else think this game was kinda bad? it’s a surprisingly broken mess
