Streets of Rogue Speedrun in 6'51"19 IGT (Custom Character - Mutator% Obsolete)
3Newer, faster run : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GyyMmaNVIOo
Something different for once. Been playing this game quite a bit lately, and thought I'd do this. Lengthy description ahead, proceed with caution.
Mutators used are :
- Speedrun Mode (required for any speedrun runs)
- Everyone hates you (almost all NPCs are hostile, but have much lower health. Meaning that NPCs actually gets insta-jibbed by missiles rather than barely surviving a blast)
- Infinite Ammo (self-explanatory)
- Money Rewards (I'll only be using the Rocket Launcher, so miscellaneous items are useless. Besides, the inventory would fill up and I'd have to remove an item just to grab the Mayor's Hat at the end, losing some time)
- No Patrolling Cops (meaning I won't get shot at as often)
Custom Character : B17 Bomber (AVGN reference)
Starting Stats :
1/4 Melee (useless since I have Rocket Launcher)
4/4 Speed (it's a speedrun)
1/4 Endurance (most of the time, I can avoid damage. I can also boost that stat via level-up if nothing else interesting is available)
3/4 Firearms (would have pushed at 4/4 if there wasn't so many points already invested. I can pick the remaining stat up via level-up)
Starting Items :
- Rocket Launcher (the core of this character)
- Resurrection Shampoo (more of an emergency item, which is popped right at the beginning of the run)
Traits [number of points] :
- Blaster Master [5] (Can destroy any walls with explosives, including steel walls. Required to break through objectives)
- Blaster Survivor [3] (Any explosion I cause, be it via the Rocket Launcher itself, or exploding generators/barrels via the Rocket Laucher, don't do any damage to me. Pretty much required)
- Tank-Like [2] (Knockback is reduced, firing guns don't cause knockback, or too little to notice. Required since you're gonna fire a lot of missiles)
- Master of Disaster [3] (Any object/wall I destroy gives me experience)
- Super Studious [7] (Gains lots of extra experience, but reduces number of Chicken Nuggets gained per level-up. I don't care about Chicken Nuggets at this point in the game, and the extra experience helps quite a bit to gain levels from destroying walls and killing NPCs. Level-ups are in fact my only source of healing)
- Ideological Clash [-8] (Cause random NPCs to turn hostile. Since the "Everyone Hates You" mutator is already in place, this is a perfect negative trait to pick.
- Malodorous [-6] (Neutral NPCs are now annoyed. Again, negated by the "Everyone Hates you" mutator)
- Strict Cannibal [-5] (Can only heal by eating corpses. Since level-ups are frequent, this is a free 5 points trait to pick from. Would have picked the "Wanted" trait if it didn't cancel Ideological Clash)
Traits I pick up during level-ups will prioritize G-P-Yesss and Teleport-Happy, since in this game, you can teleport to a marked objective via the press of a button. G-P-Yesss marks all objectives on the map, while Teleport-Happy allows you to teleport while indoors and in Disaster maps.
About the run itself : went smoothly, though at least 20 - 30 seconds can be saved, due to having to deal with finicky teleporting on levels 2-2 and 5-1 (wasn't far enough from NPCs in 2-2, and the last objective was a moving Neutralize mission, so I couldn't teleport there directly). In hindsight, I also lost time on 5-3 because I didn't realise I was close to the last objective before ending the map. I'd say 6'0x"xx is possible, maybe even sub 6 with some luck. I'm happy to have sub 7 minutes IGT though !
