If
you were worried you wouldn't be able to finish Fallout: New Vegas before
Fallout 4 rolls out, don't be: it's only around 24 minutes long. Speedrunner
Ryderc33 has beaten Obsidian's vast RPG in 24 minutes and 15 seconds, using a
recently discovered glitch (a glitch in Fallout: NV, surely not?)
Ryderc33
explains how the glitch works in the YouTube description:
"When
you cripple your leg, you get slower, and then when you heal it, you're
supposed to get your speed back. By quickloading just before getting crippled,
you can confuse the game into giving you the speed back without actually ever
losing it (because we don't actually really get crippled). So you get a huge
speedboost, and walk at 165% of your walking speed."
In
the interest of thoroughness, I tried the above tactic using my actual leg and
an actual Range Rover, but I couldn't get it to work. Maybe I did it
wrong. Also ow.
Thanks
to the above video, Ryderc33 is now the New Vegas speedrun
world record holder. They beat their own record set the previous
day, while the one before that was achieved six days ago. Those of you more
interested in glitchless runs will be pleased to hear that
playing it fair only takes Ryderc33 around six minutes longer—you'll find their
best glitchless run below.
