Free interpretation : map01-05, tyson, 100% kills, dying late in 06
Comments : now that was a tough title, especially
because i play tyson now for just three
weeks. D1T is _nothing_ compared to D2T,
since the biggest badies in D1 are the
caco and the baron of hell, which can be
both boxed one-on-one with some practice.
in fact the baron of hell is the only D1
monster that couldn't be chain-sawed,
even cacos die without reaction in the
waterfall of sharp metal teath, tearing
into their soft flesh... got carried away,
sorry. :) in D2, you have to provoke in-
monster-fights to box or chainsaw certain
creatures (e.g. mancubi or arachnotrons).
map03: "the gantlet" (lv03-d2t.lmp)
more than enough bullets, health and
two megaarmours make for a really easy
map. just pistol-shoot your way through.
time is 12:45 and dance is at the start.
map13: "downtown" (lv13-d2t.lmp)
now that was more challenging, since
i've never seen a tyson recording of
this level and didn't know exactly
how many bullets are available. so i
just run around for some time to let
most of the monsters kill themselves.
e2m5 was harder, but this also is an
"advanced tyson map". time is 33:43
min and dance is at the start.
map27: "monster condo" (lv27-d2t.lmp)
the masterpiece. new in the tyson
levelset, never before asigned, never
before completed for a DHT exam. first
patrick martin did it in 45 min, demon-
lord in 25 min and i never, ever thought
i would be able to complete it at all.
but i worked out a route that puts the
dangerous parts in the first few min of
the lmp. rini also got 27 asigned, and
using roughly my route, he was able to
complete it. the same evening, he coached
me to success. only thing is, that i
would have boxed the painies, but rini
said "no, too dangerous". hmpf. bet he
only said this because he wanted me to
stay over his 44:05 min recording. :)
tip: just watch the first 5 mins, 'cause
after i start shooting the mancubi, it
really get's boring. time is 54:04 min
and dance is in front of the big arrow
right after the 30 secs secret.
free : map01-05, tyson, 100% kills (01-05d2t.lmp)
wanted to do the first 5 maps tyson
style with 100% kills. i did it, but
forgot the stupid dance, so i did it
in map06 at the start. than decided
to try "the crusher" as far as possible,
but since i wasn't prepared, i had no
clue about tactics or strategy. in the
end i died while trying to persuade the
hell-knight to kill some revenants for
me. all in all the chainsaw from map01
really helped alot. dance is at the
start of map06.
