[TAS] [Obsoleted] NES Arkanoid "warpless" by Chef Stef in  

He always wanted to brute force one, and Arkanoid was his game of choice since with a few heuristic assumptions the game becomes solvable in a human lifetime.

Read the technical details, it's mindblowing. They took the game apart, made their own perfect emulator of game physics, added heuristics to cut down the cosmic number of game states to be manageable, and then had a computer calculate all possible inputs and pick the optimal one.

I had the TAS channel streaming on twitch when I saw this one. “How did they do that?” I asked myself. Being curious is a great way to discover mind-blowing work. Thanks to musashi gundoh for directing me towards knowledge. This TAS is brilliant.

This run literally is using 100% of a brain in the dumbest way possible and it worked.

They only call it "Cheating" because it's breaking every convention as to how a game should be played. The work that is done is clearly researched heavily and planned out accordingly either by a single user or the efforts of two or more users, and they really go out of their way to pull off amazing feats. I've been watching videos like this for years, especially when I discovered the original site and before RU-vid was a viable means to upload such content. Let those people call it whatever they want, I see this as entertaining and impressive work. I just think that some people want to discredit TAS as something of a fraudulent method of gaming, not saying that is what you're doing though. I glanced over the author's notes for this video, and there is a lot of technical data regarding the game and that's what I find rather impressive.

tassers(?) are amazing and have unrivaled knowledge of the game they are playing so they can push it to the limit and it looks beautiful

This particular TAS can't be considered "cheating" as it's *entirely* machine-generated - at no point does a human control the paddle.

TAS is made for entertainment purposes nothing else

TAS literally cannot cheat, no matter what. RTA can cheat, but TAS must be a FILE of INPUTS and NOTHING ELSE. It must playback on another device. It literally cannot cheat.

Bye

i don’t get what you mean, please translate

Hitbox, I believe...

Which pills fall is based on a random number generator, but the random number generator isn't really *random*, it's just *hard to predict*. It's still based completely on your actions in the game via a mathematical formula. The triple ball pill is the best for going really fast (because you can break more blocks faster), so the player makes sure to only take sequences of actions that lead to the multiball.

By making a few heuristic assumptions, simulating instead of emulating the game state, and let a bot brute force the rest.

You need to destroy all except the gold blocks or go through an exit after grabbing the Break capsule to beat each stage. Silver blocks take more than one hit to destroy and never drop capsules. All other blocks take one hit and sometimes drop capsules that when grabbed enhance the Vaus. I was surprised only the Divide capsule kept being dropped, but I’m sure that’s sometime to do with either never losing a ball or RNG manipulation:

Because the multiball is the best powerup if you're playing for speed.

wdym? thats just the rgb formation?

Yes, it is. The author of this TAS spent around a year for this project, which is really incredible.

@Zach what does RNG stand for?

@@michaelsegal3558 late, but If i remember correctly it's Random Number Generator

@@shigushigu741 yeah but I’m wondering if he rigged the game somehow so he would only get the triple ball capsule

@@michaelsegal3558 It's RNG manipulation, not rigging. You could probably find a better explanation but essentially: The bot is doing the same things on the same frames in the same order to guarantee the same result, which is what it does on each level to get the triple ball (from my understanding)

@@shigushigu741 I see

It said "BTS Sucks"
