This is such a detailed guide on such a complex topic! You broke down the downright convoluted awards in a clearcut and concise way. This is easily among your best vids, Ryan. :)
a nearly hour long ryan video, this is good! A lot of these rewards I have never gotten before, nor even knew they existed. Crazy to still be learning new things about the game after all these years.
Now this was a good watch. Thanks Ryan! I have a couple things I've always wanted to see in Timesplitters and I wonder if you'd be able to do them and show them off. I've always wanted to see the 3 games in third person, and I've always wanted to see some levels noclipped out of to look at the environment and skybox more. One level in particular is Breaking and Entering. They made it look like there's a pretty cool city out there and I'd like to see what exactly they did for it. Regardless, looking forward to the next one mate! :)
I’ve done so noclip in Breaking and Entering before as I also really wanted to look around the city! I did a stream a long while ago going through TS2 in third person, the included Cheat Engine table can allow you into TS2 third person by modifying the game view if emulating on PCSX2 1.6.0. I should also have a similar file available for TS1 on my Discord. I best start getting around to TS:FP!
@@RyanUkAus Thanks for getting back to me so fast! I'd be very interested in the noclip and third person videos, do you have a link to any saved video of them or an old stream?
This was just fascinating. I always wondered what was the difference between Most Frantic and Most Manic, for instance, but assumed the former probably just meant running around the most while the latter probably involved firing off weapons the most while you're at it. It's actually rather disappointing to learn there's apparently no difference whatsoever in the criteria the game applies to the pair of them, and likewise to a couple of other pairs of awards. I was certainly one of those who'd assumed Most Dishonourable meant shooting people in the back the most, so it feels odd to learn it's functionally identical to Most Sneaky. There appear to be a few that are rather unintuitive in that sense. I was very much one of those people who'd figured that the Where's the Health? and Where's the Armour? awards involved running fruitlessly over the empty spawn points where said pickups _should_ have been, not that they required picking up _none_ of the item in question and also an opponent qualifying for the inverse award (Hypochondriac or AC-10) at the same time. Similarly I'd have assumed Underequipped meant picking up the least by way of advanced weaponry, not simply being the same as Most Outgunned - which I figured specifically meant going into combat against enemies wielding much better weapons than yourself at that moment. Circling back to my first example, meanwhile, I think I was also puzzled over what the difference might be between Most Manic and Maniac - and it's fair to say I would never in a million years have worked out that the latter means 'pumping most shots into an already killed opponent'. Crikey!
Great to see u back, i was wondering if ud know this as i cant find anything about it online: in Ts2 theres a banner above most menus. Usually its of cortez and hart posing, but after a certain amount of time playing the game two new banners appear - one of two monkeys and one of two timesplitters. I was wondering what “unlocks” this in the game? Is it playtime? Percentage completion? Story mode completion? Something else?
@@RyanUkAus excellent. Idk if its enough material for a full video but ive always wanted to know what triggers it because it. I even looked up discussions online lol and got one or two threads and nobody knew
@@RyanUkAusi think i might have figured out one of them: as soon as i finished dam bursters in my all golds Xbone run i got the monkey banner. I would probably guess that the timesplitters come from finishing story mode and the monkeys come from finishing the monkey challenges and from that point it’s randomized?
I did this in 2009. Platinum TS2 player here. The hardest missions to do this, hands down, are Nice Threads and Sergio’s Last Stand Edit: This video is about the awards in TS2, I meant I played for all Trophies/Unlockables
wonder if some values are different in TSFP ? like most effective would be near impossible to get in an online match, but every single player would potentially qualify for pathetic shot, since you almost always have under 30% accuracy, unless maybe you only use shotguns.
As far as I’m aware (from a bit of research) the 50 awards here should translate over to TS:FP like for like. There’s an additional FP award for most damage dealt I believe though. I’ll likely look a bit more into TS:FP’s Unlucky to Lose and Marksmanship statistics soon!
@@LeFaucheur There are an additional set of "life stats" such as insomnia and golden oldies, some of them can appear in your arcade awards! These are earned by having to play multiple matches over time.
What do the three different types of crystals mean? There’s red, green and blue. Green are obviously the story mode level completions, but what about red and blue?
Post video I was able to earn it in TS2 by hacking the "time in first place" statistic to be high and coming in second place, so the logic for the award is in place and works as expected - the required statistic just doesn't seem to change in-game! drive.google.com/file/d/1m0WRGsze7lvcJKmMyviVySdgAzEgaI9p/view?usp=sharing
I needed this 20 years ago lol. Great info, thank you so much for this compilation

Thank you for making this for those having trouble! Now for TS1, those seem even harder!
It's very interesting to finally know what these awards mean. Thanks for the video.
Woah this is a long one! I love watching gameplay from TS2 so i’ll still watch it all 😂
Great to see a new video here ;)

Fairly sure there was an R109 one as well, and that one of the banners was yellow. Felt like that one was a bit of a special occasion one, as a kid.

Nice Threads used to haunt me until I realized the Laser Gun's shield is actually really helpful!
Great video ❤

Are all of these awards in Future Perfect?
They are, I believe Future Perfect has one extra for dealing a lot of damage!
@@RyanUkAus I think I heard about 58 ? I have 54 or 55 I think

What is the typography of the letters of the awards?
Handel Gothic
What do the three different types of crystals mean? There’s red, green and blue. Green are obviously the story mode level completions, but what about red and blue?
They’re story mode difficulty completions
Also, I think unlucky to lose is not in TS2. I think it's only in Future perfect

You is why timesplitters future perfect all?
How do I get worst youtuber and least uploads award?
Stick to my upload schedule of 1 video every 6 months and keep the quality of videos low
