  • To see twitch chat, split timer, and etc see - • super metroid 100% - 1...
    This is the first 45 (in game time) achieved for 100%!!
    To see the 1.16.47 run leading up to this one (and the first 1.16 100%):
    Twitch VOD - • Video , Direct VOD - • Video
    This run introduces a route change compared to all the record runs in the last couple of years after dessy's.
    This route is very similar to the run hotarubi used in his SS 50 IGT, and behemoths segmented PAL run on SDA. But it does the gauntlet section after WS instead of at the end of the run (before Tourian), and has a lot of new strats.
    The most significant strat (IMO), is the new setup for the springball ice clip. We've known this route was the optimal route for awhile, but this clip had been too inconsistent for my liking when you had to time a beam shot to freeze the leech. It was way too easy to freeze it a pixel too high or low.
    The new setup I found uses a mechanic used when storing a charge shot (hold shoot and spinjump). When you spinjump with a charged shot, let go of shot, and land, samus automatically lets go of her stored shot after landing. When you do a specific spinjump up to the leech, taking damage, she releases this charged shot at the perfect time to freeze the leech.
    The other stupid trick that was in this route was jumping to the wrecked ship etank. It's very easy without highjump, but pausing is slow. Twocat developed a bomb jump strat that is pretty fast and WAY easier than morphjumping over the gap with high jump.
    The last remaining thing that makes this route significantly harder than the previous route is that you have one less etank during all of wrecked ship. This means that you cannot make many mistakes at all between WS etank and gauntlet etank, without losing a good deal of time.

      what's the new strategy?

    • @zoasty
      @zoasty  2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      @@CharlesFalcon12 If you hold charge beam briefly then spin jump and let go of shoot before you land, she will automatically release a beam shot when landing. If you space jump up to the puyo (the worm thing) like i do and take the hit, she will automatically release the beam shot to freeze it in the perfect Y position to clip through the ceiling. If you just "wing it" for trying to freeze it, it's very difficult to get, and reloading the room is like 12 seconds lost.
      Anyway, my strat here of using charge and the spin jump up was the first really consistent strat for the ceiling clip. People used to go for the strat in older days when runs were measured in game time (failing is less of a loss with game time since the door transitions dont count against you). Before this run (dec 2015), the ice clip route had not been used for the world record since hotarubi's 1:23:34 / 0:50 in game time run was the record (2008ish-dec 2012).

    I never got to play this game until like...6-7 years ago on virtual console through the Wii Store.....after having played through it twice, I can see how this is arguably one of, if not THE BEST Metroid games of all time.
    It plays smoothly, the paths are non-linear with the proper techniques and items, the boss battles are few to plenty, depending on what kind of playthrough you're doing. And the levels/maps are HUGE in comparison to other 2D Metroid games.
    This one will always be my favorite 2D Metroid game.

    • @zoasty
      @zoasty  8 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      +mysticinvasion Thank you! You may be aware of all this, but the reason I didn't do the ice clip to springball for so long is because it always relied on timing an extremely accurate beam shot to freeze the leech in the correct spot, and you lost ~15 seconds every time you missed it (for game time runs it wasn't as bad of a loss). It was so easy to freeze the damned thing a pixel too high or low! And this is 45 minutes into the run, after the run's major randomness - the phantoon and draygon fights.
      However, I recently found the setup you see here... you store a charged shot in a spin jump, and if you spin up and on the ledge the leech is on correctly (there still is some timing and jump distancing involved in it), you will get knocked back briefly before samus automatically lets go of the charged shot. The timing works out to where it freezes the leech in the perfect spot :)
      I was still struggling with the very difficult jump to wrecked ship etank (pausing to turn high jump off and on makes it trivial but wastes time) until twocat figured out the bombjump you see here. With those two tricks figured out, this route isn't much harder than the other one I used.
      The difference in this route from the old school route hotarubi and behemoth used (I'm not entirely sure the full history of it) is doing gauntlet early, right after wrecked ship. This makes for some very sensitive energy conservation in the wrecked ship where there's not much room for mistakes, but it's more streamlined routing than doing it later (before tourian).
      Altogether, the routing should save me somewhere between 15-20 seconds. Being able to one shot croc is the biggest time saver. There's also a new strat we came up with that I almost got in this run. At 1:00:55 , you can see a spikesuit performed. This is a pretty new trick, and you will see it used to great effect on the vastly different any% no major glitches TAS that is being developed right now. Basically, you change a shinespark, unmorph the same frame you get hit by a spike, and with a frame perfect jump input, you get a special blue suit that allows you to run with a spark stored. Messing up the camera by balling over croc's head allows you to get behind the invisible wall the game creates during the acid cutscene, allowing you about 3 free extra shots at doing this. If you miss it, you can try it two more times during the 2nd cutscene.
      Unfortunately, I accidentally pressed jump from a stationary position at 1:03:13 and wasted it. But the intent is to shinespark to X-ray!

    • @mysticinvasion
      @mysticinvasion 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +zoasty Yeah, I knew most of this, however I haven't seen the ice clip setup in action until now. Also didn't know about the bombjump to the ws etank. Very clever strat :)
      Also, thanks for explaining the details behind spikesuit. Too bad that it didn't work out, but just getting the setup right seems crazy enough, so still very impressive. So it goes to waste if you jump from a standstill, or are there other conditions behind it as well?
      It's great to finally see a 1:16/0:45 run. I remember when people though 0:45 was a potential time for segmented runs!

    • @zoasty
      @zoasty  8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      +mysticinvasion If you press angle up or up on the dpad (maybe jump in certain conditions) while you are in the air it activates the spark, or if you press jump on from a neutral position on the ground.
      It sounds a lot easier than it actually is, not to accidentally do one of these!

    I played this religiously when it first came out. My first time through it ever was probably 6 hours IGT. I recently got hooked on it again because of the SNES classic console and emulators on computers. My PB right now is barely sub 2 hours for 100% (1:58 IGT). I learned a handful of tricks from you, behemoth, and oats, but still need to practice. My goal right now is sub 1:30 IGT. But, I'm still a long way off from that, because that's shaving almost 30 minutes off my PB time right now.
    Short charge, and a few sequence breaks are my downfall (the super missals tucked behind spore spawn still elude me, I can't get the power bomb/super missle down the small tube to work)
    There are a few other places that I have issues as well:
    - Wall Jumping up the shaft after getting the morphing ball.
    - The parlor after getting the bombs (I can't wall jump back up the tube and get the ball to morph into the small opening)
    - Same with the jump/morph ball to get the ice beam without climbing all the way up the room and coming back down.
    - My mach ball still sucks (HAHAHA)
    - And the other big place I lose time is in red brinstar. The hero shot up to the top of that shaft makes no logical sense to me, lol. I watch all of you speed runners do it, and I just can't figure it out.
    tl;dr: I still suck at the game, and can't figure out how you WR setters/holders can do some of the tricks you do.
    Anyway, thanks for the read if you did!

    I've been playing this game since it came out. I was In high school, and I used graph paper and a piece of poster board to map out a route. I think I got it down to under three hours? Maybe? But I didn't know anything about any of the exploits to speed things up. Ha! I wonder if Nintendo Power would've done a story about things like that.
    I was so pumped when I saw younger people speedrunning this thing and using all these crazy tricks. Watching this closely, it blows my mind how quick your fingers must be moving.

      You need ice to do the trick at 43:10, which allows you to delay going into crocomires area until late in the run. This is the new 100% route (with early gauntlet, after wrecked ship, unlike the oldschool one). It saves 10-20 seconds over the previous route used in WRs, although it is a little harder.

      It's just a weird quirk Crocomire has. I suppose either the developers never thought you would fight Crocomire with the Plasma Beam and so it has a slightly bugged reaction to the beam for some reason, or they designed it this way on purpose to make defeating Crocomire really quick for people who had already got the Plasma Beam before fighting Crocomire.

    Fun fact :
    Ridley in Super Metroid is about 16 feet tall.
    I determined this by measuring the individual body parts of his sprite with a tape measure in centimeters from sole of his foot to the top of his head.
    From sole to knee gave me 6
    Knee to upper thigh gave me 5
    His torso from thigh socket to neck gave me 9 (to base it's 11)
    Neck segement 1) is 4 and segement 2) to base of skull is 5
    From base to Crown is 10
    Adding all that in comparison to Samus' sprite which was 16 and represents about 2 meters I was able to determine that Ridley is about 5 meters or 16 feet given the 39 centimeters it takes to make up Ridleys sprite.
    Btw I misspoke bc I don't know what the spaces are between units but those are what I used,not full centimeters.

      Of course you can do grapple first. Most any people would be advised against a delayed grapple route, not only b/c of the Wrecked Ship Etank (and having less energy for wrecked ship), but getting to springball is also a problem.
