Post Your Oddworld AO/AE Completion Stats
 
Hi everybody! I'm new to this forum, but I've been playing oddworld ever since I was born. I recently bought AO and AE off PSN and have been enjoying em ever since.

I'm wondering what times you guys got for completing the game, if you keep track that is. Every time I beat the game I save it on my internal PS1 memory slot HD. I save it right next to the stat monitor so I can track if I'm doing better or worse. Here's my times and mudokons saved:

AO

Abe: The Boardroom (can't name these in this game, but the times were getting faster and faster so I'm assuming this is the right order)

Speed A: 2:59:24
Escapes: 63
Casualties: 2

Speed B: 2:49:04
Escapes: 60
Casualties: 0

Speed C: 2:22:05
Escapes: 69
Casualties: 2

Speed D: 2:12:52
Escapes: 68
Casualties: 0

AE

I call em Speed cause I tried doing them as fast as I can, and the letters A, B, C, are like 1st try, 2nd try and so on.

Speed A: 3:01
Escapes: 144
Casualties: 15

^^ I skipped like the last couple levels which is why the time is so short.

Speed B: 4:23
Escapes: 278
Casualties: 6

Speed C: 4:11
Escapes: 291
Casualties: 1

Post Yours!

I never kept track :(

MA 12-01-2009 02:36 PM

when the PS1 first came out, one of my uncles, who was obsessed with computer games at the time, bought one and got AO. he completed it in a day, obviously not having played it before, and i was surprised. then when i finally got a PS1 (a long while after AO & AE was released) i bought AO & AE. completed AE months later and lent it to him. he did it in 2 days, that time.

i suppose he just had a very good affinity with PS1 games.

Crashpunk 12-02-2009 07:19 AM

I haven't got my compleat stats with the Speeds and times but i remember my first saved stat on Abe's Exoddus was somthing like 120 somthing. and i saved about 50 on AO first time

My last run...About early 2009

AO
Saved 76
Killed 28

AE
Saved 289
Killed 12

I have also killed them all on both games.

AlexFili 12-02-2009 07:34 AM

:D Hmmm only thing i remember is:
Escapees 99
Casualties 0

Time: Not know

Maybe i will try fastest i can soon :pipe:

enchilado 12-02-2009 12:24 PM

I saved 2?? on AE, and killed 0.

I always restart if one dies, but there were a couple secret areas I missed.

Alf Shall Rise 12-02-2009 07:19 PM

Can't say I really remember my statistics, but I guess my averages are:

AO - Usually around 60-70 saved, 1, if not 0, killed.

AE - Usually around 170-230 saved, usually none killed.

Taco 12-03-2009 04:24 PM

AO- ~80 saved
AE- 300 saved

Didn't record time unfortunately. AO can get realy frustrating without Quicksave, but still an epic game

enchilado 12-03-2009 04:27 PM

It is frustrating. But I like it better than AE. And it's a lot harder without Quiksave, which basically renders the game super-easy.

Taco 12-03-2009 04:30 PM

Yeah AO is pretty hard, except for the ending. For some reason I found the ending in AE a lot more challanging.

erwinraaben55 12-04-2009 08:14 AM

AO:
1st play dunno
2nd play saved all :D
3rd play: killed all possible to kill, where that was not possible I didn't save them, only saved that absolute needed ones.

AE:
Same thing

MO:
Same thing

Stranger:
Just finished the game once, I tried to capture all alive but I don't remeber if I really managed that or not, think I did.


Sorry to expand this to MO and Stranger too ;)

SparkErosion 12-04-2009 12:10 PM

That reminds me..
In AO if you kill them all do you get a killing spree award like in AE?

Grieva 12-04-2009 12:18 PM

Been playin AE the last few days to for reference pics, just finished
time 5:39
escapees 286
casualties 0

enchilado 12-04-2009 04:30 PM

If you kill them all in AO you get infinite grenades, AFAIK.

Really? I looked at the walkthroughs but couldn't find an ending for killing them all in AO, only in AE. Do you get a different ending too? So far I know the endings as:
Rescue 1-49 Mudokons --> Bad ending (it's funny, watch it!)
Rescue 50-98 Mudokons --> Good ending
Rescue 99 Mudokons --> Good ending + Bonus movie gallery

enchilado 12-04-2009 05:08 PM

I think it's just the normal Bad Ending cutscene.

Grieva 12-06-2009 04:06 PM

did AO this weekend
time 3:48
escapees 99

marlz 12-16-2009 11:04 PM

I can't remember the exact speed or completion rates of my current plays, but I distinctly remember getting 49 the first time I played AO (when I was about 9), and I think I rescued all 300 Mudokons in AE for the first time BEFORE I rescued all 99 Mudokons in AO.

AlexFili 12-17-2009 11:38 PM

The first ending I got in Abe's Oddysee was the bad one. I seriously thought that was the official ending of the game. That was until I got the notice about having failed. Thankfully virtually every game after that I've got the good ending.

enchilado 12-17-2009 11:53 PM

I've only finished an Oddworld game once

>>

But SRSLY - so you thought Abe actually died xD ?

marlz 12-20-2009 06:22 PM

If we're talking speed runs, I don't do those.

But if we're talking play the game at your own pace and tell me how long it took to finish...
I fully completed Abe's Exoddus in 7hrs and 9 minutes with all 300 Mudokons saved.

I'm currently playing Oddysee again. I'll probably post that one at some point too (when I finish).

AlexFili 12-20-2009 11:57 PM

Dude, this was the 90s. We didn't have multiple endings in the 90s (not much anyway). Besides, we had no idea they'd make a sequel.

enchilado 12-22-2009 03:51 PM

I was trying to be rude...

anyway, it's the only game I've ever played with multiple endings, because it's basically the only game I've ever played :O

Abe_Ross 12-23-2009 09:46 AM

HaHaHa.

enchilado 12-23-2009 02:10 PM

Oh damn. Did I say I was trying to be rude? Shit dude I am seriously sorry, I meant to say I wasn't trying to be rude xD

*facepalm*

marlz 12-31-2009 06:04 PM

Ok. My final completion time for AO is 4hrs 18min 2sec.
I'm working on a Let's Play of AO, so I just added up all of the video times and looked at how long the whole LP took.

Mikaeel 01-02-2010 02:18 PM

Oh no he di'n't!

Lord Stanley 02-04-2010 01:45 PM

I did AO the first time and got 49, which made me really mad. I knew there had to be another ending because of something I heard somewhere, so even before I finished it, I knew I was going to get the bad ending with 49. Every time since then I've got more than 50. Never gotten more than 60, but then again, I haven't played it in a while.

The first time I did AE, I got 169, so I actually got the good ending. The second time I got 188, the third time I got 261. I haven't played it in a while, not the real way. I've never timed myself.

MA 02-04-2010 04:26 PM

the first time i played AO, i got 3. which really annoyed me. i then tried again approximately 45 minutes after finishing the previous game, and 3 and a half days later i got 42 1/2. i then proceeded to leave the game itself dormant for a while. this while was approximately 8 days, or 192 hours plus an extra 3 hours 27 minutes 32-40 seconds. i had just eaten cheese on toast the day i returned to it. the cheese was Pilgrims Choice, and the bread itself was Morrisons Brand Medium Sliced White Bread. the cheese was partially melted, but not to a degree i preferred seeing as the grill wasn't quite up to standards. i took a swig of my tea, which had milk and sugar in it, well stirred, and played the game again. i endured the game for 44 hours where i actually lost count of the minutes, thus less information just then. apologies for that. i managed to save 72 mudokons, but encountered a glitch on the 4th screen of the 2nd Zulag of the game in which you return to Rupture Farms. this enraged me so i pressed the small reset button on the Playstation which i estimate was about 1/4 of an inch in both length and width, an inch in perimeter and i haven't a clue what size in depth. after pressing this delightful button i awaited the game to reload. i continued from where i had last saved and rescued a further 3 mudokons, but then someone rang the doorbell so i attended to that, leaving the game on the feature which stops any interaction within it which i believe is widely known to be called 'pause'. a woman was at the door, asking whether i wanted to go with a cheaper gas company. i said i was quite happy with the one i was with and she replied to me, stating they would guarantee to beat any other gas company charges for the first 6 months. i did enquire as to what would happen after these first 6 months and she pulled an odd face. i took this as a chance to return to the Playstation 1 game Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee which was in a state of frozen play, the 'pause' feature. i eagerly took my leave and returned to the console in which my game was in. i then continued to play it up until i got to the 14th screen and somehow died. i gave up momentarily and wondered whether i should have cheese on toast like i had had a few days before, but then thought i would make a cup of coffee and go for some variety in my lifestyle. the coffee itself was brown, as most coffee is, and was in the form where all you need to do is add hot water to it. remarkable, it is, and otherwise known as 'instant'. i went to the fridge, the game i was playing 17 minutes earlier still fresh in mind, and noticed i had no milk. i did depart for the corner shop.

more unnecessarily excruciating details about something universally trivial once i find the incredibly detailed diaries i made of my every single move.

skillya_glowi 02-04-2010 08:30 PM

I've played the games over many, many, many times, so I can't really give any one time or set of stats for either game....First time I completed AO, I got the bad ending (I think I saved about 45 or so)...Hell, I was 10, I didn't realise that I actually had to save the little buggers :( I did save them all eventually, though.

When I first played AE, I was a little older (er, more than a little, I guess), so I got the good ending first time I played, and second time I got all 300.

I've also gotten the killing bonus on both (although it didn't work for me in AE, but it was still gratifying seeing the screen :/ ).

As for times, I've yet to do a speedrun of AE, so I'll have to disappoint you there, but I've speedran through Abe's Oddysee multiple times. I didn't do the whole game at once, I timed separate segments and then added them together. I've got the times for each segment somewhere far away on my computer, or possibly on some old archive CD, I don't remember them off the top of my head. I only remember that my Free-Fire Zone time was 1:40-something, Monsaic Lines was 3:00-something, both the temples were 10-15 minutes ish...
And of course I paid no attention whatsoever to any Mudokon slaves, so I got the bad ending...
I don't remember the total time exactly, but it was either just barely under an hour or just barely over an hour.
