- Опубліковано 29 вер 2024
- Hi there,
I had an idea to try speedrun some levels of Descent in "insane-max" category. Rules of this category were suggested by player Avder and are:
1. Insane difficulty
2. Cold Start
3. No Saves
4. No Deaths
5. All 1-Ups, Hostages, and the Full Map (D2 only) must be collected
6. All Robots that the level starts with must be destroyed
Played in D1X-Rebirth 0.58.1 with keyboard only.
PTMC Boss: "Okay Material Defender.. this next assigment will be pretty tough and i know it sounds insane, but if u manage to clear the field in less than 5 minutes, you´ll recive a huge pay raise of 5000K Credits"
Material Defender Marvin: "Sweet. Double that!"
You´re too good for this game, awesome run.
Thank you!
i think this was the first PC game i played. about 1995
Hello Marvin, i have a short Descent related question since u know this game in a out and you are bascially the Mozart of Descent. U´ve played and showed 3 secret levels in Descent 1, would it be much to ask, if you could do a short video on How To Actually Enter Those Levels? According to my internet search the entrances are in Level 10, 21 & 24 but where exactly, i can´t find this anywhere.
@@AndersonNeo12 Sorry for late response. Years ago, before I started speedrunning, I made complete walkthrough of descent. Showing every secret doors of the game etc. So also secrer levels. You can find it on my channel.
Hey Marvin! I was wondering, do you use demo recording feature or just play with a recording program playing in the background? I can't seem to set the game to start recording on its own even after writting -autodemo in launching parameters.
Hello, it is a demo file from the game. I press "f5" manually at the beginning of the run.
Oh I see, thank you!
Do you have to kill the guys for the doors to open
No, you don't.
Dang!!! Keyboard only config? What are your keybinds.
@@atifarshad7624 Right hand:
Little finger - Num1 - slide down
Ring finger - Num2 - slide up
Middle finger - right arrow - pitch right
Index finger - up arrow - pitch down
Index finger - down arrow - pitch up
Thumb - left arrow - pitch left
Thumb - right ctrl - drop bomb (if I speedrun particular level I often change config of this button for what I need more - for example cycle secondaries etc.)
Left hand:
Little finger - left shift - shoot primary
Ring finger - A - slide left
Ring finger - Q - bank left
Middle finger - W - forward
Middle finger - S - backward
Index finger - D - slide right
Index finger - E - bank right
Index finger - F - bank left (alternative button in a case my ring finger is busy with A at the moment, so can't hit Q simultaneously)
Index finger - X - flare
Thumb - space - shoot secondary
Thumb - left alt - bank rigt (alternative button in a case my index finger is busy with D, so can't hit E at the same time). But I often change that button for something else for speedruns, depends what I need more in actual level.
Also I change for each level what weapons I want to cycle and specific auto selection. Also I often use Delete/End for Mega/Smart missile
Does the Max in insane-max mean you have to kill everything?
Read the description. I wrote there rules
Good job on this, one time I was playing Super Metroid for Super NES, I wanted to get 100% so I used to walk through online until it got really hard and realized I was using a speed run😅
I'm not sure what do you say:D
@@38Marvin38 don't use speedruns as walkthroughs
@@zach4thlife I'm still confused. Is it even possible to play close to its limits without noticing? To me it feels something like going for a long trip and not noticing you are atacking marathon world record, lol.
@@38Marvin38 well you better believe it. Yes I should have noticed sooner when I was having to execute certain jumps...🤦♂️
@@zach4thlife Ok, you have my respect:).
I never played Super Metroid myself, but I know some players spent hundreds hours to speedrun it.
Hello Marvin! Is there any way I can contact you for the game related questions?
@@Chessforall777 sure. Do you have chess.com account?

glad to see your back, full run 1-28 +s1,2,3 soon?
Yesterday I moved for a work and have no pc with me. But actually I was thinking about that. Maybe in a year when I come back!
Looking forward to that run, you mentioned on descentbbnet that a full run was possible@@38Marvin38
I checked out your page like 2-3 weeks ago to see if you made anymore content, couldnt believe it when I saw your new video a day ago.
Yes, it is possible. Once I made it up to level 23, where I lost a life. So if I have enough time, I will probably retrain it and give it a try.
