Hockolicious - The History of Trackmania's Most Hunted Track 

KEKW

Yeah finally

Yeah

At least we can expect a video once a year so that's good.

LMAO YES

He is kind of Wirtual's nemesis at this point.

Nah Hefest 💀

There’s a lot in the folder

I mean there aren't that many top players in the whole game

there aren't many top players crazy enough to do so much record hunting rather than league play

No there are much more hunted tracks than this xdd

@@anonymous7704 My point exactly :p

At the time.......... He literally tells you the time frames

Its always the most hunted track somewhere...

Same bro. I gasped and dropped my phone

Ayo but same

I shouted Noooooo!

I audibly gasped

I still feel physically ill when I see it, I can't imagine how he feels about it.

Ngl, im kinda surprised he didnt yeet his setup through the window, cause I would have

being karjen after so many years of heartbreaking fails, he's probably damn used to it 💀💀💀

Pulled a wirtual right there

we're happy to have you Willem

It's sad though cause now he has a total of 70 videos not 69 😢

@@liamsalton new objective: 420

subto his secondary account he uploads a lot on there :)

900 likes for this anti humour

an absolute cracked shortcut run. perfect bug checkpoint flyby, multiple great wall climbs, and the low air time in the middle of the map was insane.

LMAO

@@tppolo009 when it comes down to it, the technical drivers should appreciate the precision he had in that run. yeah fast lines and pixel perfect is a thing, but you have to use that same level of skill when doing those stunt runs as well. you need to bounce the car just right, you need to bump that wall perfectly in the right spot and angle. it's ALL technical precision, just different directions. its like rallye vs F1. both are at the extremes of automotive insanity, but both are equally perfect

@@EEEEEEEE A

I felt a little heartbroken watching that part and I wasn't even the one playing, can't imagine how it felt for u :(

you are the goat

Legend

GOAT ❤

Bro I don't even play the game, and I audibly gasped when it happened. That's just brutal.

💀

it’s been 7 months finally a upload 🤣🤣

I understand 1 month uploads but half a year uploads…😁

@@D0qyhe made a community post saying he lost his password Edit: nvm that was a joke I guess

@@brandonm1708 ? lost his password for 7 months, kinda doubt that, id guess its just way too much work when he can go live on twitch and get way more money than he already needs

i raise you WirtualTV or his twitch steams

He lost his password

@@SkylineLofe I think we all know those just don’t quite hit the same

He just Lost his password that's why je wasn't uploadint

@@SkylineLofe What is WirtualTV?

"ok but guys did you know the pyramids couldn't have been built by piling the stones one on top of the other by using a ramp going around the pyramid because of the calculations needed to build a symmetrically optimised pyramid??? It's obvious this type of ramp wasn't an option that's why it's much more likely that green little aliens came on Earth 3000 years ago to build the pyramids and then left without saying a word" -Wirtual in at least half of his streams

Thought his name rang a bell

@@poppypug2592 DANG!

Agreed, especially the shot at 2:44

I was waiting for "or was it?"

I was waiting for Hfest to be the next words out of his mouth

To be fair, the cut runs only started because of TAS

Human limit?? These idiots used computers to tell them how to do things because they have zero talent themselves. These are the same idiots that use aimbots and wall hacks in COD just so they can post videos and make money. Players like this are trash and should be banned.

"Hockolicious pushed to the human limit. ...At least, the normal way."

Damn, beat me to it lol

Wirt is known for his horrible math and percentages in his videos LMAO

funnily enough wirt made that exact error in a previous video, writing the decimal answer with a % sign rather than multiplying by 100 first

This must have been intentional, he has explained how the mistakes like these (he made one a while back, don't remember a video exactly) get people triggered and therefore, more watches, more comments, more discussion and in the end - more money :)

i remember him being bad at it, i don't remember it being on purpose, if so that's a power move and i respect it lmao

And newbies alike!

he has another channel yk, this is his second channel

@@mattpatt4976 at this point, this channel is his 2nd channel

@IonRuby Haha😅 I'll just leave it like this)

@IonRuby no-one cares if someone has bad english. maybe its not his main language.

@IonRuby it sure as hell wasn't softbreaking

And then someone cut it, lmao.

lol rip

So did I :O Who would've thought I would get so emotionally invested over a video game I don't even play

​@@madsmadstm8227 bro stfu u ain't original

I haven't seen that run in a few years and I reacted the same way I did for the first time

See you in the next year then!

Go to his second account

I was wondering when it would happen, made us wait like 15 minutes 😂. I like the original “this run” music better though.

Yea I would rather watch a slower run that has a nice flow , pixel perfect corners than someone crawling over barriers and clipping through floor 😂😂😂 . They should make the order in wich the checkpoints get approached fixed

Most major speedrunning communities have separate leaderboards for glitched and glitchless runs. I feel Trackmania Exchange would benefit from separating the leaderboads much the same way. I don't know much about Trackmania other than what Wirtual uploads (and I played the recent console release for a few hours), but it's clear that the track loses something when it's cut the way it has been here. Tech players who aren't interested in cutting the track are completely left behind, and being erased from the history books, by the people gladly doing so. And FWO waiting (or trying to anyway) to reveal that they cut the track until they got most of the top spots on the leaderboards is a very toxic way to go about it, in my opinion. Like giving a middle finger to every tech player. Not saying that cutting the track doesn't require player skill, but there's a great deal more luck involved. So the leaderboards should reflect that, since not everyone is on an equal playing field.

@@jethroortega4129 why do you think shortcuts don’t require as much skill?

@Rob Clifford clipping through the track, which is done here, requires luck. Therefore, not as much player skill is involved since the clip isn't always consistent. Shortcutting the track does require skill, I'm not trying to argue that it doesn't, but shortcut runs should have its own leaderboard separate from those who drive the track 'regularly'. Like I said, there's different categories in most speedrunning communities depending on how the game is run and of course a glitched run (which this is the rough equivalent of) is going to be faster than a glitchless run. With separate leaderboards, tech players can still chase the WR with other tech players instead of unilaterally being forced off the top of the leaderboards, and shortcut players can still find ways to break the track. Both communities win in the end, and you keep competition alive in two different racing styles rather than just one.

@@jethroortega4129 Also not knowing anything about trackmanaia apart from wirtuals channel, it seems tech or cuts are both pushed to the limit in terms of skill. As in, the skill/luck in a pixel perfect cut is not that different in the skill/luck in a pixel perfect race line? Both require a highly skilled player to try it over and over for many hours to make everything come together. Idk, I find both impressive and entertaining to watch, so I agree that it sucks for tech players that they get erased from the top of the leaderboard when a cut is found.

Real and true

until the cut is also grinded and perfected for 15 years Chatting

I can't disagree more. The cut wr has to string together a handful of difficult tricks while maintaining momentum. The massive gap between the 1st and 2nd time are a testament to the new skill ceiling. How many people were within a tenth, or even a hundredth of the old way? Now we have a clear winner, who decimated the rest of the competition with arguably the most technical way of driving. It's about tech after all, isn't it?

I personally admire the cut WR more, all the ingenuity of finding the ideal path with AI technology, trying it out with TAS, then practicing it, and finally managing a good run with all the insane tricks required, is such an impressive task. I'm not saying the no cut WR wasn't impressive, it was damn near the human limit, which is exactly why the cut was found.

I feel that no cut wr is more impressive because of how little luck it involves.

He hit that a long time ago

​@@Oscwalhard to keep track when you haven't visited the channel in 7 months

yeah, I loved that there was no words as well, just a visual explanation

This video gets me so damn nostalgic I'm almost getting sad >

No one really care

Bro he's done the math correctly you should go back to school

@@GnuSnu you should probably look a little bit closer at the calculation

​@@kylian8295 chut up then

Funnily enough maybe this is an intentional mistake ^^

In a video I watched on his second channel the other day there was something on screen that said "hello to people that like to go to sleep to these videos" lmao

Same guy! He also set several world records in F-Zero. Overall just incredible skill in several racing games

Ahh cool, thank you. (Wasn’t expecting a reply from you!)

E

Wirtual is Weeb in denial.. just embrace it

Hefest unfortunately cheated as well :(

@@Grandremone ????????????????????????????

Didn't Hefest get outed for cheating?

​@@Grandremoneey what??

Because it depends on the lifespan of the game, for example, in various fighting games (a genre I've follow for years), there are people who have been at the top for 20 years or more.

​@@theksefan011 because fighting games suck

@@parknich081 ok its fine if u think that, i like it and that's what matters to me, but if FGs sucks because of that, trackmania sucks too? 🤔
