Вставка

- Finally, a good PB. There was some time lost in the early game as well as about 18 seconds in warp 5, although honestly, I'm fine with letting this be for the time being. I need to play other stuff. Merry Christmas!!!!
FAQ:
Q: Why are you skipping checkpoints?
A: In TWoC specifically, checkpoints are designed so that hitting a checkpoint farther ahead in a level results in all the previous ones breaking at the exact same time. Also, breaking any boxes that appear before a checkpoint that you already activated will stay broken upon respawning from a death, thus allowing for easy death-abuse strats with otherwise out-of-the-way boxes (see The Gauntlet, Eskimo Roll and Crash and Burn).
Q: Why do you keep angling Crash into a wall?
A: Much like Crash 2, TWoC has a movement tech called wall-boosting, which is done by angling your character (Crash, Coco and the Mech) about 45 degrees into any flat wall. However, unlike in Crash 2, where its use is mainly in a handful of levels, TWoC's wall-boosting can be done in any place where there's a flat wall. Doing a perfect wall-boost makes your character go nearly twice as fast as they would normally, matching slide speed. Wall-boosting typically helps with maximizing distance while in the air and generally keeping the speed up while airborne.
Q: How are these loading times so fast?
A: I'm playing the game via a homebrew program called Open PS2 Loader, which is a program that loads ISO files straight through the PS2. Essentially, it's an emulator that runs off the actual hardware.
Q: Why are you playing on the Japanese PlayStation 2 version?
A: TWoC was originally made to be a PS2 game, and as such was optimized to fit the PS2's hardware perfectly, which in turn made it the best performing port of the game, period. The Japanese PS2 port is the most optimal port of the game as it reduces lag in certain levels (Sea Shell Shenanigans and Coral Canyon), it makes skipping cutscenes easier by mapping the cancel button to △ (remapped from the Start button which tends to drop inputs), and it retains the Red Gem Path variant from black label PS2, Xbox and GameCube (Greatest Hits PS2 and Japanese Xbox have a harder variant which makes the path nearly impossible without damage-abusing). The second most optimal port outside of PS2 would be the Xbox version, although Atmospheric Pressure was purposefully slowed down to make the fight longer, which hinders it a little bit.
Q: Bruh why is this commentary so CRINGE?!?!
A: Streams get crazy

Even the most 7/10 game ever will have loyal fans its beautiful to see, good run!
I genuinely love this game.
actually insane run 👀
Watching you do this effortlessly is awesome
Ironically, the amount of effort I put into not messing up certain things was a lot.
Yesterday I get all the platinum relics in this, but how you mastered the game is really incredible.
Congratulations for your achievement. 👍
Greetings🇩🇪
My god I've only just watched the first level hut you're insanely skilled.
Brilliant job!
Any% with Glitches is all that remains...
Inevitable Wrath of Cortex leaderboard sweep aside, Merry Christmas and congrats on the WR! I decided to comment once I found out the news, and I might watch it later - kinda busy working on my own big project at the moment that may or may not involve a similarly commonly-believed-to-be-underrated game. ;)
Can't wait to find out about the sub-2 hours & ten!
Thank you! It may be hard to believe but I don’t intend on taking any% any time soon. The category is extremely volatile with one dupe in particular proving to just kill any enjoyment for me, but if I tried, I could easily get a 46. Maybe one day, but that’s only if I truly feel motivated.
Incredible, just incredible!
At this point, 2:10/sub 2:11 might actually be somewhat possible, might.
For now the deed is done, as I have been blessed with quite a few wonderful current world record full completion runs of Crash Bandicoot this holiday season.
Also, a 106% run on GameCube TWOC sounds like a pretty interesting sub goal.
If only you were there to see it 👀
Beautifully executed
Wow, I can definitely relate to your frustration during some levels
it's hoopin' time
Holy moly, that loading time on the Gamecube.
GameCube’s loads suck in comparison to this.
Excuse me for my ignorance, but is this on XBox?
PS2. Check the description for details.
Right, I should’ve checked that before commenting, my bad 😊
All good 👌
Nice Bro 🇧🇷
How did you get properly looping music on the PS2 Version?
It was a long and complicated process of modifying the music files to remove the 0.5 seconds of silence (sometimes more, such as Compactor (1s) and Banzai (0.7s)) on each individual music track, then zipping it all back up in the game files. I did this for Greatest Hits as well as the Japanese and Korean versions.
Fantastic🎉
Yes there was a sonic.exe sequel I forgot what it was called tho.
2:10 is getting close...
It’s entirely doable, but I’m taking a break 🫡
@@_McHooper We hear ya.
As I put the game in Japanese, I already tried to find a download in JP but I didn't find any
busniess xDd
pog
The high blood pressure thing maybe true I suffer with some of those things n i was diagnosed with it not long ago
Sorry to hear that :(
For me I just get hot very easily, that’s really the only way I can tell. I was never diagnosed so you have my full sympathy.
@@_McHooper its ok i found out it runs in the famil yso i should of been tested when younger
Amazing player
حقيقةً هذا اعجازي 😱
How many relics would need to be skipped for a 100% run?
If you mean just getting all the gems, then 5, but if you literally mean 100% then you'd skip 6. Getting the true ending without at least 25 relics would be pretty difficult, though.
Btw what’s with the not getting all the checkpoint boxes ?
Check the description.
Is this on Xbox? This game looks better than I remember
It’s on PS2, as the speedrun is most optimal there.
@@_McHooper I remember GameCube having awful slow down so that makes sense
GameCube indeed has bad framerate that hinders the overall speed of the game (text boxes take about twice as long to skip because of that, and the warp room teleporter moves about half the speed).
I have a video on my channel that’s just me doing a 106% speedrun on the GameCube version, and it is indeed quite painful.
2:12:52 where's the special solar brawler time relic strat?
I lost a lot of momentum while going for it so I had to do the safe strat.
@@_McHooper thanks for explaining why you didn't do it here.
But i meant something else.
You said that if you won't to it here, you'll post in the description a video of that strat
Oh, that’s right. I can update the description at some point later today with the strat in action. It’s extremely hard and only worth going for in runs that are either about to die or tipping on the edge.
@@_McHooper thanks man
I just realized did you destroy the checkpoints Or sometimes they don't count?
Check the description.
@@_McHooper ok thanks
why is it the Japanese version any real reason?
Check the description.
how to slide cancel or whatever that is? using a ps controller do I just spam o?
You just slide constantly, so yeah, you spam O.
Why it says gamecube on the bottom?
Why were u playing the Japanese version
Check the description.
A lot of illegitimate gems…
…illegitimate how?
