"This next test is very dangerous. When working with airboats, always remember that phasing through the boundaries of reality is a regular occurence, and should not be feared, as 32% of test subjects report a continuance of their life."
I audibly snorted each time the airboat boost smacked Chell into the wall, killing her instantly. Pure, unfiltered, visual comedy. Don't get me wrong, flawless speedruns are awe-inspiring, but the scuffed ones are the real treasure
For those who quickly want to understand the category it is effectively Any% Min Portals except the ch_createairboat command is allowed. This command isn't considered a cheat by the game so you could argue that this is the "true" Any% Min Portals category.
Would you need to enable sv_cheats in HL2 for you to be able to create an airboat? And if yes, why did Portal remove the need for cheats to be enabled for the boat to be spawnable?
10/10 video. I clicked this video for Portal Airboat% Speedrun in 13:40 (World Record) and I got Portal Airboat% Speedrun in 13:40 (World Record) I am satisfied
Ive never heard of or seen this category before and was very confused by the title, then when the first airboat was spawned I was absolutely flabbergasted
iirc the airboat cheat can be done without sv_cheats 1, making it technically not a cheat, so people joked about using it to skip the relaxation vault and it escalated into a category
I like the part when GLaDOS goes "I can feel you he-" "I can feel you he-" "I can feel you he-" "I can feel you he-" "I can feel you he-" "I can feel you he-"
what do you mean “things start getting seriously optimised”? bugs fixed in portal in 2023? but shouldn’t it be bad for runners then? or do you mean runners finding new tricks?
In the half-life/portal lore the multiverse is a thing, so I like to think that this is canon, there is a universe where Chell defeated Glados with an airboat gun.
4:15 that was such a satisfying clip, how you just perfectly reached the elevator and as the door opened and the door immediately shuts after you. perfect. also liked the head nod
The fact that portal can be beaten without portals is already insane, but the fact that it can be done in under 14 minutes just takes it to a whole another level
fun fact, the chamber at 2:13 you can softlock inside and glados will give you some recycled dialogue from near the ending of the game and just complete the test for you if you do it, that's what glados tried to do when the airboat spawned in the wall before she moves on to "as part of a required test protocol"
This is awesome, even better is that this can technically be further optimized (probably). Wonder how ridiculous one could get with the help of a TAS for laser-accurate airboat deployments and flings. Spectacular video!
Me: does not watch speedruns. if I did, it's always meme ones where the guy breaks the game consequently Me: watches a guy do a world record speedrun of abusing that 1 unintended vehicle left in the source engine instead of the portal gun... FULLY WITHOUT SKIPPING.
And here I am thinking that making a mistake means that you need to restart your run, apparently not. Makes sense with the unpredictable nature of an airboat
Saving and loading is generally allowed in speedruns as long as the timer stays running. You don't see a lot of it in many record speedruns because at that level of competition a reload generally means a dead attempt, but it comes up in races, events like AGDQ, speedruns with a lot of unpredictability (like this video), and very long speedruns (24 hours+). In some cases saving and loading is used to save time. When you load a save in a temple in Zelda, it puts you at the entrance. Sometimes saving and loading is a faster way to get out of a temple than walking.
3:43 Do airboats not weigh down buttons? I would have thought that spawning an airboat on the button here and going through the door normally, rather than doing an airboat clip, would shave a second
buttons are not weight based on the source engine, the trigger that triggers the button animation and the door opening are just filtered with a filter that only allows things like cubes to activate them
Chell: haha airboat go brr *Meanwhile on the surface* "WHERE ARE THE FUCKING AIRBOATS? THE COMBINE ARE BOMBING OUT ALL OUR OUTPOSTS AND WE CANT ESCAPE!!"
I can't believe that you can actually solve the first chamber faster than by simply putting the cube on the button and Walking through the exit in one smooth motion

I can only imagine how Glados would react to Chell using an ungodly amount of airboats to skip the test chambers and then escape
She'd probably send the neurotoxin early.
Watching GladOS' chamber flood with airboats and the game doing what i assume to be crashing at the end was funnier than it should've been
i think Chell just gets crushed and they end the recording since no further inputs are required anyway, but it is hilarious regardless
