Gaming News She gives a huge tip for a Starfield speedrun that no one knew about…
Sometimes a simple comment is enough to make a big difference. In any case, this netizen proved this by revealing a crucial tip that no one among the Starfield players knew. Good news for speedrunners?
Trains delay Starfield speedrunners
Last September, Bethesda and Microsoft played their biggest card of the year with the release of Starfield. The studio’s first new license in a long time, this game offered the opportunity to explore an entire space universe filled with hundreds of planets. But even though the game was originally intended to be long, the speedrunning community quickly formed to finish it as quickly as possible.
If there’s one aspect of Starfield that raises a few hairs on players’ heads, it’s the fairly high number of loading times. But in addition to the latter, which we obviously cannot avoid, It’s the obligatory cutscenes that annoy speedrunners. Among them we find mainly the movement animation of the New Atlantis train which expires with each use. Unfortunately, anyone who has played Starfield knows that you have to take this famous train quite often, if only to get to Constellation HQ. However, A new trick has just been found to play this animation.
A tip that is as simple as it is well-kept
While the entire Starfield speedrunner community had to create an animation every time they rode the New Atlantis train, a new trick was just discovered thanks to a simple comment on YouTube. The player behind the latter thought that their trick was already known to the community, but it actually caused a real tidal wave:
@Foxtrot_67: I haven’t seen any other Starfield speedruns, but I’m surprised you didn’t play the train departure animation. I found this by chance while playing and was sure it would be used by speedrunners. It’s always fun to jump to the front of the train to immediately start loading because I guess he can’t move? It saves time…
With this simple comment under a video from Tomato anusthe player Foxtrot_67 has revealed a tip that will save many speedrunners a lot of time. Below is a video showing exactly how to do it:
While the Starfield speedrun record is currently held for a time by 1h37min24s (without breakdown), Such a trick could well change everything in the world of this discipline for the Bethesda game. Great news for speedrunning enthusiasts, but they will have to start all over again to break their own records.
