This is a tool assisted speedrun (TAS), a speedrun made using savestates, slowdowns and frame advances in an emulator to get a theoricaly perfect run, for entertainment. Visit TASVideos.org for more info.
Submission: tasvideos.org/4...
Before anything, I want to thank Gamepro011, itsPersonnal, Kurect (a.k.a. Crydio), Sonicspeedruner and mapler90210 for all the help with strats and time savers during the run. I also want to thank all of the TSC (The Sonic Center) users, my Twitch followers and my UA-cam subscribers for all the support! Thank you very much, this run wouldn't be possible without it :D

Tricks used in this movie:
-Full speed spindashes: I found out that alternating between the buttons B and X while spindashing to break the previous spindash is faster, and doing it everywhere saves many frames! I also watched the speed address to be sure that I got the full speed quickly in the whole TAS.
-Spindash hover: By holding A while charging a spindash that goes towards mid-air and continue holding A, you can extend your spindash distance and hover for some seconds, so you can reach places that are far faster than doing a jump right after the spindash.
-Jump dash: By pressing B right after doing a homing attack (pressing A in the air), you break the homing attack and get a stronger foward dash, increasing your speed.
-Wall clip: A spindash can go through a joint of two walls depending on the angle of the wall, your angle, position and speed. Actually, most of the joints lower than 90° can be clipped. However, many of the out of bounds clips used in the movie aren't done like that. They're done by exploiting false walls to go through them and skip a portion of the level.
-Booster glitch: This glitch is only used in Emerald Coast, and it consists in breaking the spindash right before touching a launch pad (booster). If done right, you'll knock the booster like if it was a wall, but you'll still be launched by the booster. This makes the speed given by the booster extends for the "knocked out" animation and to avoid getting so much height, seeing that going in the air is slower than spindashing on the ground.
As you can see, many levels, such as Ice Cap, Twinkle Park, Red Mountain, Sky Deck and Final Egg, had some huge route changes, but I think that they're all self-explainable, as they don't use any trick that wasn't told before.

Whenever I see a speedrun of a Sonic game, I feel this is the speed the "real" Sonic would've done it all.
So sonic is a TAS speed runner
[retoracle question intensifies]
For future use "rhetorical"
The Aussie Nerd Don't answer that. A rhetorical question.
By ignoring collision and physics
Polipod you get my plus 1. but sonic would've still done it this fast. lol
This very quickly stopped being a Sonic game and turned into a story of some kinetic energy that somehow gained sentience and a tangible form.
The J-Walker what do you mean?
Do you kotonano?
Blue Shy Guy Productions kotonano?
I love this comment you sir made my day

Cristina it was only a joke
Well until Sonic Generations happened.
Unfortunately Eggman is still alive.
You never quite know how broken a game is until you see a TAS of it
Count Deku not even the first Mario game is safe from this rule.
Mario phases through physical matter.
This was tool-assisted with slight luck as one of the tools so it doesn't really matter
PaxleyPlayz L33T, unlike human performed speedruns, TAS runs do not have a luck element.
@@paxleyishere TAS runs do not have luck. They make any luck-based events become completely deterministic.
@@CalculatedRiskAK Technically TAS do have luck, as it may happen that we rely on naturally good luck. In Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga, latest Glitchless WIP I believe, Potato had a more than 1/800 chance happen even though the only options to manipulate RNG he has at that point of the game is delaying entering the fight, which means he had to also naturally get something lucky to get good rng.
He got a bit more than lucky, one could say
TL;DR one could say TASes can still have luck element.
12:16 "Sonic Wait up."
The Sonic proceeds to boost off then phase into the wall.

Man, I love watching tool assisted speedruns. In "real" time, it just looks like this inhumanly pixel-perfect masterpiece of movement.
same, it's impressive on how these uuh... things can finish the game faster than real persons.
One of the best 3D Sonic games in Sega's history.
I give that praise to unleashed. It looks beautiful had a great ost, and the gameplay (aside from the goddamn tornado) was niice.

You gotta have respect for TASers. I'd never have the patience to do this.
TASes aren't actually human performed. They are coded from a program where you can create inputs for the game, modify things such as RNG values. Theres more information in "TASVideos Channel"
@@elluciano5808They clearly know that, and you're incorrect - TASe's are still created by humans, just with various tools, and they can take many many hours, hence the patience comment. The current record holding Sonic Heroes TAS took it's creators nearly a year to put together.
@@elluciano5808
You really think an AI can just come up with all these inputs with zero guidance? *especially* from almost a decade ago? Come on man

I always just do Speed Highway right after Azure coast. It's an easy glitch and it's almost a habit at this point.
@@brazencoronet17how you do it? I only remenber casino,wind valley and emerald coast's glitches cuz i often animal hunted there and i wanted to spare time in story mode,also the one in ice cap.

I started the TAS in early February. But as I stopped the TAS for some weeks, and I was away for some another weeks, let's say I took around 5 months to finish this whole TAS :P
feel the pain during the sky chase zones
Oh god, it doesn't matter who you are, Normal Gamer, Speedrunner or even TAS Bot, the Chaos 4 fight is still a slow and painful snoozefest xD
I don't even wanna begin to imagine how much time, energy, research, heart, and skill went into this. Sonic Adventure was my childhood, and this is easily one of the most impressive things I've ever seen. All of the props and kudos to you, man. You deserve it! ~subs~
Where's the Big's story TAS?
Dank Pretzel let me look for it
...
no
@Queen Meme LMAO 😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
It could be fun from a technical perspective to do a score run TAS. Manipulating RNG on the fish to get the biggest fish to spawn and then abusing the reel and fish stamina to reel them in as fast as possible...
@Queen Yukari trollei
this video doesn't come from our timeline
This is kinda like when people port SA1 and 2 stages into Generations PC and expect you to play it exactly the same way but it's just totally over in an instant because Sonic's speed potential is off the fucking charts even from a developer point of view
Use Classic then
@Mr. Yolo 3D spindash mod. The roll effect doesn't work yet (I think changing the effect from Classic 3D Slide to Modern 3D Slide might work) but you can aim the dash part.
This is literally the only Sonic game where Sonic actually looks like he's moving at mach speed ,well at least when you use the speedrun tatics anyway...
Legitimately honored to be a special thanks in this TAS. Best TAS of the year, hands down.

Lmao
This is the first video I watched in 2019. Great stuff!
Can we all just take a second to appreciate the fuckin' soundtracks for this game?
Bro that was impressive stuff! I have never see a sonic speed run completed so fast in my life! O_O
"tas"
+Chugiron yes. TAS for Tool-Assisted _Speedrun._
So the original comment was correct.
He's never seen a speed run completed so fast in his life.
I just did it like i did a certain puzzle on club penguin Herbert's revenge
mash all the buttons (or in Cp Hr's case make the stylis have a seizure)
14:07 the most skillful part of this run
Poor B button :,(
man, I miss the physics like this in sonic games so much. felt so free and unburdened....but also very chaotic. but I didn't mind that at all. just spindash spam and go to the exreme! And it sure looks really fun to speedrun games like this x)
This is giving me so much stress and anxiety. Arin wasn't exaggerating when he said this was a nightmare.
22:08 Neither can I, doctor, but we cannot deny the sheer perfection we are observing.
XD
Your game play is crazy. Awesome job you did on this video.
Me: (goes to Webster dictionary, finds "fast")
Dictionary: "Watch Sonic Adventure DX WR speedrun"
Sonic:Wow this thing is really huge!
Eggman: Don't get too many ideas you fff
Tails:Wow it's changed shape!
*in context this is perfect lmfao @ 12:47
19:46
Aron was right this is terrifying to watch.
Announcer: The train headed for the Mystic Ruins will be departing soon!
Sonic: **busts through the bottom of the train** I hope I'm not too late!
6:20 ...are we just NOT gonna talk about what happened here?
Eu não sei, mas esse glitch é bem icônico.
5:29 thats so cool that they gave cream a cameo in sa1dx
13:27 "Welcome to Twinkle Park!"
(Sonic [3D] blasts off)
"alrighty, we're in!"
"wow this thing is really huge!"
these rampant euphemisms are too much for me
Maybe every Sonic game had the fabled Blast Processing...
Then it wouldn't work on LCD displays, or you'd have to manually set the refresh rate.
Now THAT is rolling around at the speed of sound!
youre kidding me on the go kart twinkle part section............
15:01
LET ME GO YOU HUNK!
Amy loves robots? 0_0;
ROLLING AROUND AT THE SPEED OF SOUND, GOT PLACES TO GO NOW GOTTA FOLLOW MY RAINBOW....
Even in a tool assisted speedrun Chaos 4 takes for...eh...ver... to take down. -.-
Lol Rank: C
yeah not bad
erik shure there are no ranks in this game, only mission objectives C, B, And A
Arron The Wolf Thanks for telling me that. I finnised the sonic story and I was thinking why am I getting bad ranks xd
Most of the levels go like this:
C: just reach the end
B: collect 50 rings and get to the end
A: your usually on a time limit, or in tails' case, beat a faster opponent.
That Lost World run was REALLY trippy
GOTTA GO FAST!
FASTER FASTER GOTTA GO FASTER!

Too fast?
Love how sonic goes for the windstone before the battle is over
23:07 I LITERALLY SCREAMED WHEN I SAW THE BOULDER CREEP UP ON HIM. I DIDNT EXPECT FOR IT TO CATCH UP WITH AS FAST AS HE WAS GOING.
My childhood in 30:12.02
Yup, pretty much
my child hood was obliterated by watching this
I'd say the same, but 50+% of my time with this game was spent in the Chao Garden.
I couldn't care less about the SA1 Chao garden, all my time was invested in the SA2 Chao garden; but if I want to unlock metal sonic...I might have to step it up.
23:48 - it took me literally YEARS to solve that puzzle. I played SADX when I was a kid, replayed it just now, and only now I've managed to solve that damn puzzle and beat the game.
My childhood has been obliterated. :c
It was really nice to see that temple level get what it deserves.

I played so much time on this game when i was a kid, i struggled with those levels, and this speedrun is so satisfying to watch because it seems so simple! the man beats the game so hard haha, its like a revenge for me
Sorry, but I've got to go fast
15:05
"LET ME GO, YOU HUNK OF--"
Whoa, Amy! NOT IN FRONT OF THE KIDS.
This was fun to watch.
Not fast enough!
Also, you know Chaos 4 is a sluggish battle when it takes 1 minute and 33 seconds to complete even in a TAS!!!
This is what the Next Sonic game should be like, with fucking insane speed
This is how fast sonic should be
No that would be incredibly unfun
I'm amazed.. I can't flippin believe this!!! ^^
"No way! I can't believe this!!"
Even in the TAS-run, you can't skip the most obsolete forced cutscene ever at 20:05: "Wow, this must be the way to the Sky Deck." Uhm, YA THINK?
24:59
Eggman: GET A LOAD OF THIS!!
Sonic: *Moonwalks*
MJ taught him that
When you put it into perspective, from the moment the campaign begins to the second Eggman is defeated, the actual speedrun duration would be an even more impressive 26:45!
This is terrifying and yet... I love it so much.
