So... this blew up rather suddenly. I suppose I'm obligated by basic decency to thank you lot for the views. Cheers! As of right now I don't have anything in the pipeline, I've done no significant Half-Life speedrunning since this video. That's not to say I have no ideas though, more will come if I ever get off my ass and figure out video editing.
This must be the reason why Doctor Gordon Freeman is running late for work every single time, this is his "workout" routine before catching the tram to work.
This is my new head-canon. Every Black-Mesa personnel must get through the Hazardous Course 1.0, but Gordon and every other person that wishes to do so, does the 2.0 version.
I love the idea that you, in your HEV suit, are going through all these trials and obstacles which are very harrowing and risky in nature. And then you get to a safe zone and you find scientists and security guards just chillin' as if this is just their every day commute to work. They have clearly *ASCENDED*
I've been playing video games for almost 25 years and I swear, this is the most insane, masochistic and suicidial thing I've ever seen in gaming. EVER.
@@senyaiv ofc there has to be a egoistic guy that pops up and says something negative. Just by saying that, you have confirmed that you have never played deathrun more than 2 or 3 maps on Cs 1.6.
very good man, this is my favourite half life mod, I think its a piece of history of what one swiss guy (who seems to never have done much else besides this) can create he obviously put alot of work into this
This mod makes Kaizo levels look like playing DOOM on the “game journalist” difficulty I really don’t care about you including the deaths and mistakes, actually beating the game is such a monumental achievement that I could never hope to see completed
One can only imagine how many people driven insane and the destruction of their own property even attempting to do a normal run, let alone a speed-run of Hazardous Course 2.
Less than 10 minutes in and I've seen people stream that much progress in like 2 hours. But this is a speedrun. THERE'S STILL 70 MINUTES OF (RUSHED!) CONTENT TO GO. Unbelievable mod. So much love from (and to!) the creators.
the best hl mod ive ever played. so good, fun, deep, interesting, hard, rage inducting and mapping even better than valve. well done richman. u r the boss. and awesome speedrun yoshi. gg wp
Bro i don't know if you see this but I'm speechless fron the very beginning of that this mod is something because it was made by just 1 person to the part that you kept the mistakes made on the run, for me that was the touch to make this video so enjoyable and probably one of the best hl gameplays ever, also that this show that half life is a genuine gem that is and always will be timeless.
The factory section was really cool but looks like a massive pain in the ass, then its followed by that neat train labyrinth, what a headache that must be
this mod is absolutely insane in every regard. its (for me too) challenging, funny, attention to detail is bonkers, a lot of content. it is just so gooood.
I love the level that's just a realistic, non-sci-fi nuclear reactor and they have to slowly crane Gordon out of the coolant pool he decided to enter for some damn reason.
At first i thought the time format in the title was Minutes:Seconds:Milliseconds Then I realized one and a half hours would be absurdly long video for a minute long run
Thank you for this video! I'm doing an LP from this mod and without your video I would be completely lost. Just now I've managed to get the last secret and finish the whole damn thing. I had to go through the basic training twice to get all the secrets but it worked. It's a huge relief :). Here is a like and subscription. You deserve a much bigger audience :).
Much bigger audience? For what? I've not posted anything since that day. Anyhow, I did have to do some digging myself to find out just how the hell you beat the game. Not many useful resources. I guess this video rectifies that problem handily though.
I believe I have never watched a speedrun as engaging as this, I was so rooting for you in the part with the trampolines, I felt every jump. Surely, by speedrun standars you could have done a lot better, but for a map like this, I feel one hour is decent. Good job man!
For those watching who haven't played the mod, there's no way for me to convey how stupidly, fuckingly, retardedly impressive this video is. Great job Yoshi.
Speedruns are the art of gaming. HL speedruns are the masterpices. It's not your typical DOOM SR where you just learn the game's mechanics glitches, it's the place where you push your game control skills to the limit. The creator of this map is a freaking crazy genius, hope he will make a lot of kids.
I started getting Indiana Jones vibes from around 10 min mark, thanks for introducing me to this mod (it's really my first time watching someone playing this)
It took me all day to finish this incredibly hard ****. And that was with 2-3 walkthrough peaks because I got hardstuck on where to go. Can't believe you speedran this in under 90 minutes, crazy. Amazing mod though, really funny and amazing level design
I think that with a bit more practice you might even get under 1:15. However the simple fact that you somehow managed to successfully complete this piece of work of a mod and persevered enough to make a complete speedrun of it (the only one visible to my knowledge) is impressive and worthy of praise in itself.
-Sir, why do we have such a low rate of applied theoretical physicists in this facility? -Well, people in HR tried to tell me that tank on the training ground seems a little bit over the top. -Wha-a-t? Why they even have to fight the tank? -That's the same thing I was saying! They just have to go for rocket launcher in our recently finished temple full of deadly traps and the tank will be no problem!
I hate the fact that most youtubers who played this mod quit before they were even half way through. Someone spent probably many days to even months creating a very elaborate puzzle mod for Half Life 1 so that people could enjoy a good mod showing what you can actually do with the resources given to them instead of creating some type of meme shitpost. Thankfully this person with probably few subscribers did what they did not, which is play through the mod in it's entirety. I get that not allot of people have the patience to do puzzle games I sure don't but if you buy a game that tells you there are puzzles or someone has shown that there are puzzles and then it's your turn and you don't like them it's not really their fault.

It's a single-segment run, timed by real time, so cutting off fails wouldn't make much sense since it would introduce time skips.

Wow, this is crazy. Some of the secrets are outrageous. And some of the dark parts and underwater vents and stuff were anxiety inducing
Although absurdedly and willingly hard, it's a brilliant mod, showcasing stuff I would never have thought GoldSource capable of handling

Watched the entire video in a trance. Worth it.
The author of this mod was clearly chaotic evil.
A speedrun of a 100% playthrough of this insanity T_T congrats
The factory section was really cool but looks like a massive pain in the ass, then its followed by that neat train labyrinth, what a headache that must be
The train section gave me a week long migraine bro, the spring part of the tower sucks too
I haven't played the first Half-Life, but I have always admired its cool graphics, textures and sounds! And this map is just gorgeous!
Damn I didn't even know there *were* any secrets

Wow, the amount of detail of the mod is amazing. Nice run btw, cool video.
This thing is like a whole game! A very hard one. And you speed run the whole thing. Legend!
This is seriously impressive, I'm seriously glad youtube recommended me this
cool man, great speedrun. Never seen speedrunning hazard corse before, but is really cool for watching.

2 - Bind x "host_framerate 0"

having hardly seen any of this mod past the intro, it is utterly surreal to think that the speedrun would take longer than HL1 itself.
