AE challenge
 
I bet this isn't challenging for you, but for me it was.

Complete AE's paramite nest without the fast crouch. With "fast crouch" I mean the crouch which works even when Abe is running. You can only use that one which works only when Abe is stopped.

If you manage, please take video to prove it ;-)

Paramite Nest? Is that the end of Paramite Burials grounds. I still don't understand "fast crouch" Is that a running/roll. If all questions are yes then I am sure you can do that but doing it all by running is impossible. Because some scenes forces you to do running and turn to a roll. U_u Maybe it is me who don't understand what you mean?

Maybe, I don't know what is the place called, but it's after the paramite-puzzles.

I meant that you can roll, but not from running. You must stop first.

you can't i don't think as the Paramites will just eat you :(

Grandi 03-16-2009 09:07 AM

It's possible. I had to complete it that way myself some days ago, because the rolling while running-button didn't work on my old keyboard. To complete this, you can't just run like usually even if you were super fast, you must use some special tactics.

I suggest a 'pacifist' mode, where the character isnt allowed to kill any bad guys. (With the exception of the ones necessary to save mudokons/beat levels etc)

Chubfish 03-16-2009 01:18 PM

I've done a challenge once, where you weren't allowed to run, but only roll and sneak (and hop/run+jump, but only in areas that are required).

I think I got to the FeeCo depot.

Ok here's a few little challenges;

"Talkative" - Talk to as many Sligs as you can and get them to say "Hi" to you. Only counts as one point per Slig.

"Bouncer" - Whenever you find more than five mudokons in an area, get them to fight with each other. Without using quicksaves, try and stop the fight when one of them is about to die.

"Happy Slapper" - Slap as many Sligs as you can. Only one point per every unique Slig that has been slapped.

Post a video to prove it. :p
Also, I have some ideas for challenges:
Slap as many glukkons as you can.
Kill as much as possible.
Kill as little as possible.
Use run-jump-hoist as little as possible.
Use sneaking as little as possible.
In the 4-minute boiler run at the end wait for 2 minutes after turning the wheel that activates the timer, and try to beat it in less than 2 minutes.

I don't have to prove it, because I'm not in this competion, I'm just the organizer :D

I stopped playing exoddus because I didn't know how to do a running roll. After playing AOs moonsanic lines(It teaches you how) I returned to finish exoddus.

I won't try it unless you, grandi, provide us with some video evidence

Grandi 03-17-2009 01:19 AM

I can't record it to video, I afraid. Fan of my computer is broken and I afraid playing AE could crash my computer like many game have done before. Secondly, I haven't got AE on my computer because I removed it for having more space for other files. I haven't got even a disc to install it again, because it was w***z.

Note that I haven't got any reason to lie. You can figure yourself that it's possible.

Guekko 03-17-2009 04:28 PM

The run/roll is my main mode of transportation...well okay, rolling is, getting into it from a run just happens a lot) so the paramite ender without run/roll...maybe if I had the invincibility cheat running ^^; I'd try it through, for a laugh, if I find out where I plopped the disc. Though video, nay possible

Grandi 03-18-2009 01:54 AM

If anyone get stuck, please send a screenshot from the place and tell your problem, so I can help you. I might not remember it 100%, but I atleast try. My main goal was that someone makes the video, because I can't myself right now.
