Metal Gear Solid 1 Speedrun - PC Any% Very Easy -

====UPDATE====
Very Easy, particularly on the PC version is a very unique category. I've seen a few comments of people confused, or suggesting this isn't a legitimate run. This run is verified on Speedrun.com by the Metal Gear Speedrunner community. For more details on why Very Easy is so different, please check out the MGSR Wiki: https://metalgearspeedrunners.com/wik...

I can also confirm that I've now since beaten this time! The VOD from last night's stream which contains commentary throughout is now available, and should help a little way to understanding what Very Easy is all about:    • Metal Gear Solid 1 Speedrun - PC Any%...  

====ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION====

Boba of Yogscast fame, today accidentally glitched through the Comms Tower A door halfway up the room. The community were straight on it and within hours it had been replicated consistently, using a Chaff Grenade rather than the original SOCOM. As a result, we can shave 2 minutes off a PC run and 2:30 minutes off a Console run by skipping the Rappel section. See 08:20 for the strat in use.

In turn, I present the [former] World Record for PC Any% Very Easy, the world's first sub-30 minute run of Metal Gear Solid. It's not perfect, I usually throw the bomb that Ocelot puts in your inventory immediately after Rappel and subsequently forgot, so there is a death in here. Couple of other bits were a little sloppy and PAL key wasn't best RNG so there's some save there.
