Quake II in
In the beginning, there was a community of Quake II runners, with nothing else to do. One of them said "Let there be run!" and roughly one year after that, it appeared.
They initially thought that the final time would be 18:xx, but one of them disagreed and thought a high 17 would be more accurate because of the new strats!
But nay! A time of 17:13 was the most appropriate, to the shock of the runners, who grinded all the levels over 230 000 times, blessed be them who sacrifice their sanity for the purity of the Speed.
*TL:DR. This run is segmented, it was a pain to grind, but we are so happy to finally show this segmented run to You.

That was 18 minutes of my life well spent. Got Quake 2 for my birthday January 1998. I was 13 years old. I opened it in the morning, and then went to school looking forward to hyper blasters. This run was very nostalgic.

Imagine being a Strogg. It's 12:05, and you break for Quizno's. You're just starting your sandwich at 12:20, and you get a text from work that the war's over. Apparently you left some guy named Bitterman alive at a crash site.

This game is amazing to this day. Its very well made compared to modern standards. Other than using strafe-jumping, rocket-jumping and grande boosts there are no other bugs that can be exploited. No clipping through walls, no out of bounds, no other glitches. Just pure mechanical skill. Great run and great game.

Wrong. On q2dm1 you can rocket grenade jump into the sky and get 'stuck in the sky'. There's also double jumping, which you can see on this speed run.
Somewhere in the strogg command center: - Where is the enemy? - We don't know, he is everywhere!
Amazing record! Love that this run has more strafejumping then the others!

No other game accomplished that (apart from hl1)
HUE! HUE! HUE! Computer updated
Amazing work! I never realized just how perfect this game is for speedrunning. Impressive that such a "long" game that takes week to complete as a beginner, can be done in 17 minutes. There's so many cool tricks going on, it's hard for me to even keep track of, although I played this game 100 times as a kid. I love the rocket launcher boosts and the ingenious huge shortcuts used! Great job. Very impressive and entertaining run! Although it would have been even more enjoyable with the original music and visible FPS gun. Awesome!

Since Any% (Easy) is the big main category, and this run is Any% (Easy), we're not really planning a new and improved run. We are however planning to make runs of other, less serious (but faster ofc) categories, like QWmod, and brainfluid wants to make a cheated any% segmented run. We'll see what the future holds. :))))))
This is simply awesome : o Deserves way more attention.
Incredible segmented run alot of fun to watch knowing older routes and tricks. Lots of swag rocket jumps and some grenades too. I think this run will stand for a while knowing the limitations of the game. Despite the flaws in the game still a great run to watch and to play. Cheers to all those who made it happen.

Love how the runners delay jumping and change their direction with minimal speed loss.
I used to play this and Jazz Jackrabbit II all the time. This game was so much fun though...really intense and great FPS action.
astonishing
I remember me and my good mate Ali, trying to get the best speeds possible, then we saw the videos that others had done... Kind of brought it home just how impossible it would be for either of us to get even remotely close to their speeds. I managed Q1 in about an hour and 15 minutes and Q2 in just under 3 hours. One thing I might do however, is Dawn Of War... Maybe from the first up to SoulStorm, I can complete them in silly times, but alas, I am not sure if its worth trying?
masterpiece..

Quake 2 uses per-vertex mesh deformation, instead of (what would later become) the standard skeletal animation. This sort of thing happens when a mesh's vertices interpolate between two poses that are too different from one another.

I think you might be referring to the Tank. The demo version had a modified Unit 1, featuring the Tank as a boss at the end. In the full version you just fight regular enemies before exiting the level.

The world of speedrunning is full of mind blowing experiences. Look up tool assisted speedruns for example. They're the fastest runs of the game that are possible to achieve. Mind you, not all games have these kind of speedruns, but if you do find some - you're in for a show.
Those quad damage boosts tho!!!!!
