Tony is fucking amazing. Best executions and the fastest killer. Also, Roller Mobster is god damn amazing, so is EVERY other Carpenter Brut song ever made. Even the ones I don't like are still well crafted.
The fact that even the runner that probably already knows the game inside out mentions that the game is really random and gets a couple of cheap deaths really shows one of the weaker points of HLM2. Not only you could die to some random bullshit, but also levels are really big and you can get shot from something off screen that you couldn't see or react to. And the main tactics is basically luring enemies to the corner and shooting all of them instead of rushing in trying to deal with them as fast as possible. The game is still a banger though. The soundtrack, the art, the plot and lore. True masterpiece.
great run. kinda shitty how some of the strats are door camping or corner camping but that is not dukes fault, more the level design. HM1 was awesome because you were relentlessly moving forward - that was the most fun way to play that game IMO. really fun and awesome run either way. cheers
I felt this game was trying to award more methodical and careful approach to defeat your opponent. Although, it got annoying for me because I kept getting shot by someone off screen :/
Tbh, this game isn’t fun until you’ve MASTERED it. It takes way too long to become fun. But once you’ve played it for hundreds of hours and you are able to play the game aggressively instead of waiting around corners, it’s incredible. Sucks that the most fun way to play the game was intended to be pseudo-removed as a viable option by the devs.
Every track is the best track in the game, but The Way Home is the one sticks with me the most. My personal experience aside (I lost my dad the year I first played this game), I feel like this song really encapsulates the desiderium felt and/or expressed by the cast and the futility of their actions.
I'm amazed he didn't try the Down Under stage two skip, where you leave an enemy alive in the beginning of the level, and finish the level behind Tony, meaning you can just go back to the van.
It was much easier for me to 100% the first game than casually playing through this one. Couldn't imagine the pain of learning how to speedrun it, especially with all the randomness.
People complain about the level design but the game indirectly teaches you in dead ahead. The entirety of dead ahead is basically saying that you will youse guns and you will go on the offensive instead of hiding around corners.
22:21 are you serious that's a skip? I accidentally did that my first time playing through this game because i thought you couldn't kill the SWAT guy lol
See, I like bilgewater because he's sarcastic but he also explains what he's doing and is actually serious. Snowfats just made sarcastic remarks the whole time and it got really annoying during his run.
both are entertaining runners, snowfat's hotline runs and duke's hm2 runs are my comfy viewing because of the laid back commentary. snowfats deadpan delivery makes it work
In my opinion The best songs are: The face of the evil Divide She swallowed burning coals Roller mobster Future club I love all of these i dont actually have a favourite one in specific
Such a cool sequel. Fairly similar to the original, yet different enough with fresh new ideas and characters. I hope we can get another one of these from the same people.
+Hellz Yeahh He talks about why Tony isn't that great several times in the video. Tony's not that great in Hotline 2. Having the ability to grab guns outweighs the one-shot punches pretty heavily.
I actually performed key skip on my first play-through of the game, I didn't know you could kill the head cop so I ignored him, it wasn't until my second run that I found out about the key, I was so confused for a moment.
harry mason they do a metroid race every year, I think, near the end of the event, and the donation incentive for it is saving or killing the animals in the game
55:30 the reasons for the solid walls are pretty obvious, there’s a room beyond that. Adding the void there would be super confusing and make the game worse. The first game only extended vertically, which is why you never saw this there. The void is still present in every single level of HM2, and this hard-stop only happens between rooms, because otherwise the game would have to load the entire next room as well and that just doesn’t work. Stop talking nonsense, guy
In the first room maybe, but this doesn't apply to the second or third. As for having to load the entire rest of the room, did you see Hot&Heavy from HM1? The rooms there don't have to be loaded, and i'm fairly sure both games run on the same engine, just with a few gameplay and visual tweaks. Correct me if i'm wrong, but I think the real reason behind the screen stopping is because that's as big as the level creator let the devs make a level and it couldn't load anything more or else it would start lagging like crazy on less capable pc's.
I dont really like Hotline Miami 2 that much than i likes Hotline Miami because you basically HOW to use guns, and i dont hate that. Also you die offscreen every 5 seconds.

"This is the best song in the game" said everyone, for every single song.
+Alenthas Interestingly enough, all the songs ARE the best song in the game.
+qw3rtypounc3s Except Run, fuck run
ToxicTheEagle
Listen, you take that back right fucking now
+qw3rtypounc3s Nope
ToxicTheEagle
well I guess that's your opinion then and that's alright
Commentators: This stage has the best song.
*2 stages later*
Commentators: This stage has the best song.
Love that they all had a group hug right as the nukes went off at the end of the game.
Seems like a fitting way for the run to end.
Fitting way for the world to end too
"This is where poop goes down because I'm not aloud to swear....... FUCK"
Tony is fucking amazing. Best executions and the fastest killer.
Also, Roller Mobster is god damn amazing, so is EVERY other Carpenter Brut song ever made. Even the ones I don't like are still well crafted.
he's awful for speed-runs.
and he cant pick guns because is was holding knuckles
That donation from his mom and how he replied to it was the cutest ever.
This is probably the only game i never get tired of.
I know right. If dennaton’s next game is half as good as HM1 & 2 it’ll be worth the wait
The runner's mouse is so slipy, he need to get some grip.
+sabotto seal it's alright, he can deal with it. He was born with thick skin.
sabotto seal GOTTA GET A GRIP

Yeah they give you a multiplier but you aren't resllt able to use it fully
43:15 AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I NEEEEED A MEDIC BAAAAAAAAG!

Its not conner camping its baiting you shoot so they come. Conner camping would be waiting for tjem to talk into the door

I like how he jokingly didn't say Future Club was the best song
I have to pick two songs. In The Face Of Evil and Le Perv.
I can't pick which song is my personal best, there's too many good ones.
Rust and Le perv
NARC is my pick
>implying roller mobster isn’t the best song
What did you say about Tony ? Show some goddamn respect !
that’s jakes phrase
Tony is the worst mask in hl2 he csnt pick up guns who cares he has 1 hits
@@cagethelonewolf dirty hands is technically slightly since it's a bit slower than tony's

Maybe it wasn’t discovered at that time
you mean Into the Pit?
I think it's not allowed for NG
It was much easier for me to 100% the first game than casually playing through this one. Couldn't imagine the pain of learning how to speedrun it, especially with all the randomness.
Hotline Miami 2 is flawed but I like it more
People complain about the level design but the game indirectly teaches you in dead ahead. The entirety of dead ahead is basically saying that you will youse guns and you will go on the offensive instead of hiding around corners.
22:21 are you serious that's a skip? I accidentally did that my first time playing through this game because i thought you couldn't kill the SWAT guy lol
Today I just found out there's a shotgun in Pardo's trunk after finishing the game once and currently in the middle of my second playthrough.
On the first play through It look me 2 hours to beat Deathwish ;-;
Peaches 10 normal, 15 hard.
That level is sent from hell
one of my favorite runs personally
16:50
still one of my favorite speed runs.
Games like this are difficult to speedrun since the enemies are random, muscle memory will value less. Reflexes are king.
they're not lying though, the track for subway does grow on you, sometimes I hear it because I just crave that sound wave
beating this game fast is not as scary as it sounds.
The hate this game gets shocks me. It’s better than 1 in EVERY way
Dust by moon is by far the best song in this game
i really like roller mobster, its one of my favorite songs in Hotline miami 2
i just realized how amazing the soundtrack in this game is :/
Couch’s dry humor hilarious 😂
HE'S SPEEDRUNNING AND NOT EVEN GET A S GRADE
He got one in No Mercy
And in many others
"I _will_ die-"
*dies*
(17:26)
One of my favorite runs.
Duke's voice changed a lot since his 2014 psychonauts run.
Its refreshing not to hear "RNG" every two seconds, I like this runner :)
Duke_Bilgemouth strikes again!
See, I like bilgewater because he's sarcastic but he also explains what he's doing and is actually serious. Snowfats just made sarcastic remarks the whole time and it got really annoying during his run.
There were no particular tricks in the hm1 run, back then the general way to run was just ''be fast and try not to die''
both are entertaining runners, snowfat's hotline runs and duke's hm2 runs are my comfy viewing because of the laid back commentary. snowfats deadpan delivery makes it work
studio duke and snowfats is a great combo
That no swearing rule is fucking dumb, especially on 18+ games
31:30 wait.. what? tony is my favourite character in this game!
Fuck duke, don't listen to his shit.
Dude has a good point. M rated games aloud but no one can swear? Something's fuckin off here...
"bilgewater" hahaha legend
In my opinion
The best songs are:
The face of the evil
Divide
She swallowed burning coals
Roller mobster
Future club
I love all of these i dont actually have a favourite one in specific
Such a cool sequel. Fairly similar to the original, yet different enough with fresh new ideas and characters. I hope we can get another one of these from the same people.
Roller Mobster is the best!
43:33 I just stay outside the fence and I am invincible.
I love this it's awesome
Guy is a legend!
great feeling of release XD (gotta get those level puns in)
He could have used tiger at '6th scene: Moving up 24:24 ' it would be much faster.
+Hellz Yeahh He talks about why Tony isn't that great several times in the video. Tony's not that great in Hotline 2. Having the ability to grab guns outweighs the one-shot punches pretty heavily.
Never played that game I saw it though it's a fun game
Jesus, am I the only one who played this game and enjoyed it?
Phillip Mele no
I loved the fuck outta this
1:02:58
What was confirmed from the developers about Corey/Zebra Mask girl?
that she wears shoes
Seeeriously?
yeah some people think she's barefoot cause her shoes and her skin are close to the same color
7:00 I propose, Dust
love the huck finn reference
Thumbs up for the mom love!
Thank god hes also saying Stronghold is difficult xD I thought I was a total loser
Remorse in no mercy is great.
gareth evans should make a movie out of this game
HOTLINE MIAMI FUCK YEAH!!!
I actually performed key skip on my first play-through of the game, I didn't know you could kill the head cop so I ignored him, it wasn't until my second run that I found out about the key, I was so confused for a moment.
чувак очень круто сыграл! это было просто потрясно!!!
Give the music some time to start you meanies
The reporter is almost like batman in a way
Dismantling the weapons
Non lethal.. well trys anyway
Duke is the Blood.
"nice s rank"
Wait, didn't they already upload this 3 weeks ago?
+Pop Car They deleted it, then probably re-uploaded it with an age check.
+ssfsx17 there is no age check tho
Great run
Duke hates Tony but in the first game Tony was all he'd use.
+ok so Cause in the first game he could pick up guns
+ThePetrifiedBard fuck oh yeah forgot about that
Can anyone enlighten me on the save/kill the animals thing, been watching for a long time and i can never understand that, thanks.
thanks a lot mate, now i can finally relate, cheers and happy holidays. :D
harry mason they do a metroid race every year, I think, near the end of the event, and the donation incentive for it is saving or killing the animals in the game
32:40 How the fuck did he pass this level in 2 minutes?
Execution is such a good level hhh
I main tony, and I got a master combo on the hostage level w/ the girl. (floor 1 and 2)
you must like pain and suffering
you should convert to corey-ism
Good job
Isnt midnight animal (the pilot) part of the speedrun?
no point, its basically just a cutscene
Too bad this game has shitty music
But this is the best song
They keep saying every level has the best song in the game...
They just cut off the song like that? Rude
They bought dog AI from cod ghosts
29:00 ash is a guy, alex is a girl...
I don't understand the missions in Honolulu Hawaii because I live there and it just seems weird
I thought thats just a comparison to Vietnam war...
Z Zhu but it states clearly that it's in Honolulu which isn't jungly at all, in fact it's the most busiest part of the island.
Honolulu never got nuked either after being invaded by the Russians either, but that's what alternate timelines are all about.
This comment hasn't aged very well.
55:30 the reasons for the solid walls are pretty obvious, there’s a room beyond that. Adding the void there would be super confusing and make the game worse. The first game only extended vertically, which is why you never saw this there. The void is still present in every single level of HM2, and this hard-stop only happens between rooms, because otherwise the game would have to load the entire next room as well and that just doesn’t work.
Stop talking nonsense, guy

Correct me if i'm wrong, but I think the real reason behind the screen stopping is because that's as big as the level creator let the devs make a level and it couldn't load anything more or else it would start lagging like crazy on less capable pc's.
47:40 the level im stuck at
Pretty disgusting dots you placed there
youre the typ of guy that says everything that someone has a problem with is easy arent ye?
that's an ellipses
Controller or mouse?
PC run
This game is impossible to play with a controller
I have to be really accurate if I play Hotline Miami controllers aren't accurate enough
Doctor Adventure Its funny because i am PC Gamer and know and love the Mouse but its easier for me to play Hotline Miami with Controller xD i dunno
that's strange I feel the exact same for most first person shooters except for fast paced games like Doom and Wolfenstien
all me
double kills aren't rare
Когда ищешь русский коммент
Dima K я не знаю.
The silenced pistol sound is ripped from CS:GO.
Alot of suppressors sound the same
Or they were both recorded with similar sounding silenced guns. They sound similar, but aren't exactly the same.
Dead ahead on Hard Mode is fucking aids.
grats
Are you being sarcastic
Sicc
:O
"I can't believe you understand this game" it's not that hard to understand... just be a little observant.
i just read the wiki and watched this one guy on youtube lol
I dont really like Hotline Miami 2 that much than i likes Hotline Miami because you basically HOW to use guns, and i dont hate that. Also you die offscreen every 5 seconds.
This game was such a wasted opportunity
