If I ever make a game, I'm going to have a speedrun challenge for the beta, like this, just so I can see how many bugs and exploits need patching. The top runners still get paid of course.
You might be able to combat strat hiding by incentivizing sharing strats. Like if you find a glitch that ends up being used in the winning running you get like $500 or whatever.
Yeah, like how I canonized that you don't actually have to use the sidewalks to get around? Pretty mind-blowing right? I was the first - trust me. Cash App or Venmo
@@gunnaysl2389 the reach and extent of influence my techniques have made on Amok speed running is immense, utilizing techniques that stand on the shoulders of giants like Pythagorus and Ryan Lockwood. You can stick to the sidewalks, buddy.
Why would this help? You could still strat hide and get the 500 if you end up winning…. Worst case scenario you expose it for 500 on the last day and lose.
You can get the abortion skip by using the protection route. Alternatively there's the federal ban on abortion meta, but it takes slightly longer because of the child support side plot.
These types of challenges work out for everyone, the speed runners get the cash for their hard work and time, which they normally don’t get, it makes it interesting and more competitive, and Charlie gets to make content about it

@@CorelUser so if I say he worked harder than streamers then I'm giving them too much credit? Bruh people praising and dickriding streamers are giving too much credit to them
Me when hours of practice and technical skill are wasted because someone hid a "ballscratcher doublewonkey" skip that rolls the credits before the main menu even pops up. ((It's fun!!))
Charlie clearly doesn't understand strat hiding is the meta if you find a major one. Say someone found a way to make the skip from beginning to end work. They withhold that and them boom nothing you can do, they win.
@@fuckya3220 Actually no that wasn't his point in the beginning. That only became his point when he decided if someone does that he will extend the competition. Before he even thought of ways to counter that he said hiding strats doesn't sound like the move. Because you don't know if what you are doing is faster than other people. But if you find something that lets you beat the game in like 15 seconds chances are no one will find something faster.
@@happytrees9414 he clearly still understood that it was effective but he also was saying there were downsides to it as well. if he thought it wasnt an effective strategy to win then he wouldnt have accepted changes to the system that ppl were suggesting. its very obvious if you found a skip from the beginning to the end and hid it that u would easily win.
Reason why withholding strats is a bad idea is when you make yourself the central pillar of new shit in a speedrun, people come to tell you about their new tech and work with you to develop new tech. Trust me, I've participated in similar speedrun challenge ran by a lesser known game dev, and one single player will never develop strats on their own that can compete with a networked community of runners, unless they're insane, and can see in code.
Thing is, if you have a set date, people *will* strat hide, 10k is life changing money so you should understand why people would do that, if you don't want it to happen, don't have a set date, make it a secret date and don't reveal it.
Hiding a glitch/strategy that improves time or skips segments. In speedrunning its usually a bit of a bad thing since usually its community effort to break games. But the bounty makes people extra competitive
Isn't it a bit unfair though that supposed-to-be-winner ended up not winning because they have superior strats he won't share? How is it more fair? Imo, just let it have deadline, and stick with it. One that has best strats get an advantage naturally. At the end of the day, the one who has quickest time win. People in speedrunning community shares their strats because they want to be the first who found the strats, getting credits for it. But when money is on the line why would they share it? Kinda weird imo.
So he said he would extend it if a strat was withheld until the end which makes sense, but also even if it wasn’t withheld and found on the last day? Wtf, so its going to be extended if a new strat is discovered either way regardless?
If that's true it makes sense, if theres a way to narrow it down even further everyone should have the chance. It would be different if it was a well known and already finely combed game and someone just discovers a new tech like boba from yogscast in metal gear.
Bro what do you mean strat hiding isn’t fair if I find a glitch and have a better time then everyone then why would I want other people to know my tricks not when there is money on the line idc about other people in some shit game I’m playing to win 10k not to help other people win 10 k you don’t give you’re opponents you’re weaknesses
Yeah exactly once I saw that he said this I was no longer interested in participating lmao like if money wasn't on the line then sure but this is a shit ton of money not just like $50.
One reasonable solution is that all strats need to be approved for the run to count. Every strat would be approved at some point except in the final days. so the last lets say 3 days would only be for refining already approved strats
super skip was debunked. the game works on a prerequisite system so you need to actually get to the end to get credits. someone was able to replicate it and the game always crashes
Disagree with not being aloud to hide strats. It’s a competition. That’s like saying the winner of the super bowl doesn’t count because they didn’t give the other team all of their plays in advance. But it is his money, so his rules I guess.
Nah don’t extend for strat hiding. Maybe 24 hrs of being held publicly before the end date, but imagine actually finding the strat a day before and then the extension makes your finding useless because everyone else will just do it.
That's the point of extending, speedrunning is community effort, if you find a new skip you give it to the community and it's talent and effort that wins, not dumb luck.
The strat hiding thing sounds a bit odd. That kinda makes it so you have to follow what everyone else does and not just play the game and figure things out for yourself. I think if someone just plays by themselfs and doesn't look anything up but figures out a way to beat the game the quickest, they 100% deserve it.
It could be a good idea to have no runs be valid until after 2 weeks. Then have a 24hr race when the runners all know most of the main strats. Could be a great way to artificially create an exciting finish.
Do u know Charlie actually owns this game and gets 80% of the sales so this was just a ploy to make u all buy it to make him money and the worst thing is................... I like to tell lies 😉
I don't agree with the extension stuff. Why even bother running until the last few days then? Having a winning time only to have the time extended cuz of this arbitrary "community" angle is lame. If a person found a good skip, they shouldn't be punished for not divulging it. If anything the potential extensions would incentivise me to not even try until the last week if I actually wanted the prize, cuz I'd bet that's the reason why half are even doing it
Ultimately this whole “no strat hiding” is just a way for Charlie to give the reward to whoever he likes. It’s not speedrunning if you don’t get to keep your strats secret until shown on the leaderboard.
I love how Charlie is fully ready to crown "abortion skip" as the meta strat of amok runner
I feel like it's half the reason he made this challenge so someone will eventually find it and he can just keep saying it on stream

I like to think the last week of the challenge the developer is gonna drop a patch that completely improves the game and ruins a lot of the strats
It’s crazy that it’s the same Dizzy that was a monster at Apex when it came out I can 100% see him getting this wr with how he grinds.
That’s crazy that it’s him
I agree with extending it, once it comes down to chance, things will be crazy and fair. Hope you guys stay in the community, I am

This makes no sense
hell nah thats lame it would be way cooler to see everyones strats they made themselves at the end
I would love to see Tomatoanus talk about this, or maybe even attempt it.
Withholding strategies would suck ass
Strat hiding could actually be pretty cool. People using completely different strats sounds cool instead of everyone trying to use the same glitches

Why not have a poll to choose if players want the extend or not. Though, tbh, i think they'll just keep extending.
