SadisticMystic | Red Eclipse - Escape (Hard Version) Time Trial - 1:11.543 @sadisticmystic | Uploaded February 2014 | Updated October 2024, 8 minutes ago.
Red Eclipse is a high-speed FPS that focuses on freedom of motion, including such things as double jumps, sliding, and wall running.
It also features a time trial mode where there are no enemies and you simply race to the end of the course, which is what I'm after here. Escape is a map that's still unofficial for now, and comes in two versions: first, the "easy" mode that features fewer obstacles, more footholds to stop and catch your breath, and most importantly boost rings that can fling you forward past several of the challenges.
Needless to say, the "hard" version gives you none of that. Especially in the blue section, the challenges can be downright brutal, and just trying to get through all 8 sections of the level on the first try is practically enough to go insane over. At least it's not 10 sections, as it would be if not for my choice of route in the beginning.
Each time I hit a checkpoint, I quickly go into spectate mode and back, effectively committing suicide to refill the boost meter, and that does save time but it unfortunately introduces even more fidgety factors that can go wrong. Just crazy, I say.
And yes, before I set this time, my previous best on the map was a 1:16.482, so I did skip 1:13 among other benchmarks.
