Description:
23 seconds faster than the previous published record by KingInferno93, though he had an unpublished record 21 seconds faster. So this is only a 2 second improvement, time comparison above is against his old run.
This episode has some really annoying sections, especially the entire second level. I had a couple of runs that would have been a bit faster, but failed at some point, so maybe I'll try again later.
Episode 4 is up next, for those who have played it you probably know how difficult it is, so it might take a while before I do it.. just kidding of course, I also did that one yesterday, but I'll upload it in 2 days from now.
Map comments:
E3M1: 38 seconds is ok here, I've gotten 35 seconds before but it's so luck based that I'm happy with anything that has good health and doesn't make any big mistake.
E3M2: Easily the most frustrating level in any of these episode runs because getting a good time is impossible. Most likely I'll take a lot of damage going for the chaingun as the rockets don't connect well, then there's the 2 lost souls by the plasma secret which can deal more damage or block you. For the soulsphere secret I want to avoid using too much plasma which means I'm guranteed to take a few hits going through there. Then most likely I'll get blocked by more pinkies on the way back from blue key like I did here and of course there's more lost souls at the exit.
E3M3: Immediately followed up with another awful section at the start here, need to get past 5 pinkies and 1 spectre + lost souls. Once you get to the 40 plasma ammo though it gets a lot easier from there.
E3M4: Biggest problem is getting blocked after the blue key, you do have the invulnerability with a rocket launcher so it shouldn't be a problem, but it's hard to get through smoothly.
E3M5: This level is quite nice though, mostly straightforward things here.
E3M6: Oh boy do I hate this one, had a run that was 4 seconds slower than this one, but I lost 11 seconds when I failed the jump to the secret exit after getting blocked by a lost soul. Then I had another run where I didn't get the jump to the chainsaw because I got hit by 2 max damage roll cacodemon fireballs.
E3M9: I usually get either 54 or 55 seconds here, so this level is simple.
E3M7: Got blocked really badly at one point here, usually doesn't happen so I wasn't prepared with the plasma rifle and had to wait for the BFG to connect. When I went through the tunnels something happened that I have never experienced before, I was holding move forward + strafe left but I kept getting bounced backwards off the wall to my right. It happened a total of 8 times which is ridiculous, only cost me a second, but I've never seen anything like it in all my hours of playing this game.
E3M8: From 3000 health to 47 health after 2 BFGs on the mastermind, awful, anything other than 8 seconds is very unfortunate.
