The speedrun explanation by tomatoanus was so necessary, like, the run is such a fuckery, a dude flying at 300 km/h then it cuts to a paint bucket making another paint bucket fall throught the floor whenever he hits a wall.
I'm here cause I watched a speedrunning history video that came out 7 years ago when the record was 1:20 something. Now it's 1/3rd of that. This isn't HLWAHMOV or whatever, it's HLDTFTBCG (Half Life Done Too Fast To Be Considered Gameplay)
Imagine being a combine civil protection unit just trying to see his wife again and as part of the job you have to kill some nerd in power armour cuz he met some resistance members and just as he approaches your location in a sewer that leads to the shoreline, he procides to jump past you and the heli that droped u off at such insane speeds that the heli physicly cannot catch up just so he can kill your boss a couple seconds faster
Bro saved over an million time and this caused him to access the multiverse. Like he was with alyx and then teleport back to present, glitching with a crate near sewers. I never saw a speedrun like that.
Great speedrun. After watching Mr Tomato's video breaking it down and what's happening, I'm curious how do you (and other speedrunners) even discover all these ways and exploits? Because some are so insanely specific, that I doubt it's something discovered by just trying different things and see what works (like looking for gaps in invisible walls in levels etc). Do you guys dig in the game's code to find things that can be exploited in specific circumstances and apply it in the runs?
@@toreadoress Most of the super complicated glitches were initially found by accident, then researched and perfected, but I can't really answer with full confidence as I've only been active in the community for 2 years
they try things and randomly come across exploits over time. sometimes runners would go in the valve hammer map editor and look at how each map in hl2 works. like trigger zones for events.
i used to speedrun this game for fun with myself cause i know i cant reach leaderboard at all but i havent opened the game or checked any new speedrun and then i just look through youtube and a new wr (that's three month old) pops up with alot of strats made me feel less confident about my old route since its js tht 2019 by waezone tutorial route lol
A segmented run is a run comprised of multiple spliced together parts. This is not such a run, It's all in 1 sitting. Segmented runs are generally uploaded to the Sourceruns youtube channel. SS runs (No reloads) are insanely unpopular and the leaderboard only has 3 runners. Similarly, visual mods are common practice and done by most people. They're all only visual.
@peng939 The video shows multiple reloads, thus multiple retries. And we only have YOUR word there are only visual mods in effect. The fact is, if you have a mod running, we only know for a fact that mods are in effect. We can't verify they are only visual and neither can you.
@@MrZoolook I don't think you understand what a segmented run is... It would've been segmented if I *didn't* include these retries and *didn't* count the time in them. This is... standard. Nothing weird here. And like, you can look at the screen. you can see that the mods are only visual. It's a viewmodel replacement and a hud colour change. Its's very easy to do. If someone wanted to cheat they could easily just not show that their game is modded... I'm not telling you to like the run, you don't have to like it, but I obey all rules for the board and my run is valid in the main category.
if you made a ram drive, installed HL2 to that, and ran teh whole game off it - could you save another 30 or so seconds with decreased load times? given how much you load saves in this game..... id think even more than 30 seconds?
@@peng939 ahh, got ya. it just looked like the clock was still ticking on this run even when we were staring at a loading screen. given how old the game is - even with a newer update, how many cores does this thing run on? like would a single 8 core ryzen @ 4.5Ghz be better than a 4 core at 6Ghz?
@@beardedgaming1337 I'd imagine it would run better with a 4 core 6ghz, but I can't say for sure, idk how multi threaded it is, but given its age - probably not very
@@peng939 id be super curious to test that. with the modern CPU's... i wonder if you could get as much as 10 seconds off?? my ryzen clocks to 6.1 rn on liquid. next gen is rumored to be 6 from factory so... maybe 6.5-7??
I used to speedrun HL2 back in 2022, what the fuck was that What are those new strats in route kanal? It looks like a voidclip but also not, and also how it looks like you get yesclip at the beginning but also not, what the hell is going on 😭😭
Whenever in a vehicle, the player always has noclip, and the pod is considered one. Usually leaving a vehicle is supposed to take noclip away from the player. The way getting out of it works in the game logic, is that it forces the player to start exiting it, and then right after exiting it the pod gets deleted. By saving and loading repeatedly while exiting the pod we perform a glitch called saveload lag or slag for short. This delays us fully exiting the pod to *after* it gets deleted, meaning that it gets deleted while the player is still inside of it, and has noclip. This means that the noclip never gets taken away and the player is free of the shackles called being bound to the pod.
Can anyone explain what he does in the console and why? Wouldn’t it be cheating to use the console (unless it was needed to “force” the game to load a level it glitched out of)
@@thex2thaz Give me a timestamp and I can explain all console use allowed on the leaderboards, but iirc in this run I only ever use it to load saves, and the reason I use the console for that is because its just easier. Any action that can be done through the menu is allowed to be done through the console as well.
@@peng939Like at 8:53. I’ve only played this game on Multiplayer and I can’t read the text so idk what’s occurring the in the console. Is it faster to load the last save through the console here I take it? (Compared with just letting the game load normally).
@@peng939 Ahh, I see. I figured. Incredible run. I remember watching the “IGN: Dev’s react to HL2 54:30” run and thinking that was fast. I’d love to see a TASpeedRun of this one day. The absolute fastest HL2 could be done.
There is a wip run in the works, but I personally dislike it. The lead uses his own timing for the segments instead of the standard method so that he can speed up cutscenes by just removing time from segments. It also doesn't use saveload clipping at all.
Congrats! Do you have a tutorial that you suggest to learn how to speedrun this game casually ? Especially about how you bunny hop forward . I tried to accelerated back bunnyhop with limited success but it would seem easier with a toggle jump script. Is that allowed to be used? Thank you.
I'm currently working on a tutorial for the entire game but it's nowhere even close to done. We don't really have an up to date tutorial for full game runs.

For modern movement - Lyren has a decent tutorial here ua-cam.com/video/567z1uNkscY/v-deo.htmlsi=Sn-F77gKK-SSUOkB You can use an auto jump script if you want to just speedrun casually and won't submit to the leaderboards, but scripts are officially not allowed so you'll have to use your scroll wheel to jump if you want to submit to the boards.
