Doom Eternal has set a new world speed record, proving that the entire game can be completed in less than 19 minutes and that we are not as good at shooting games as we thought.
Therealpaisano, a Doom Eternal player who completed missions last week after running under 19 minutes, ultimately clocked an incredible 18 minutes and 56 seconds in the Any % category, beating the previous official record listed in Speedrun by nearly a full minute. . Any& is Doom Eternal’s fastest ranking, allowing for a consistent and innovative series of clashes and encouraging players to avoid combat in favor of running, jumping, and speeding through missions. Therealpaisano’s previous personal best, a gut-wrenching 19 minutes and an eighth of a second, was released on June 24: with his latest game, he became the first player to officially complete Eternal in less time than it takes to watch an episode of Friends.
Destroying, or rather killing, Doom Eternal like this requires some major issues to address. In some forced combat sections, if you stand in certain sections of the arena, monsters that spawn normally get blocked by your character model and their AI goes berserk and they die outright. Watch as this cacodemon refuses to live and falls from the ceiling. where it was supposed to appear, and it rolls sadly on the ground like thick, fleshy grass.
Another tip is to collect updates and attachments, then exit and reload your save. This will take you back to the previous level’s checkpoint, but it will keep any gear you’ve collected, meaning that even if you’re physically more advanced in the game, you can use things like sticky bombs to break up the level geometry and save on general. weather. .
The main strategy though is “speed lock” where you deliberately jam the Doom Killer between unavoidable ledges or corners, switch to the weapon wheel to slow down time, and basically spam the jump button so that when you exit the weapon selector, all of your jump inputs activate immediately, launching you through level caps and allowing you to jump entire sections. Therealpaisano succeeds on several occasions: the perfect glued reinforcements are one of the keys to this world record. But you can see a good example early on when they hide in one of the walls of hell on earth and use it to break right into the Fortress of Doom.
