I have been playing with the screen capture thing and managed to make a video, I have been asked a few times to share one. It is playing at double speed. This was not the slickest run or the most efficient but I was trying to keep the pausing to a minimum! This was a good map to try it on, if anyone would like to see a run through of any other maps let me know.

Thanks for sharing the video! I haven't played this map yet, but it's interesting to see your play style. You play at a much faster pace than I do. I would have taken two or three times as long to do that run. I tend to spend a lot more time with the game paused ;)

Have you tried #5215 Asteroid Mining? I'd be interested to see your take on that map if you have the patience. I spent quite a while optimizing my speed run on that map since it's the competition map this week.

I was learning to use the record function here in the Xbox app and this was about my 5th attempt so yes, it is a little more fluid and a bit faster than normal. For simple maps like this I do go quite fast, the Pyramid of Woe for example I spent quite a bit of time restarting and fine tuning and so it was a little slower.

I will have a look at 5215!

Farbour? also subbed.

Andere:Farbour is considered one of the harder arc eternal missions. it is the second to last mission for unlocking EDIT alpha sector

I couldn't find it, went into Inecptus and now can't get out, it says warping locked! I don't bother with Arc as I always end up stuck somehow and have to reload or reinstall.

you have to complete the first star system (which is just a tutorial and can be finished in 1-2 minutes) to be able to go to the next star system or back to main menu.
EDIT: tormented space, alpha sector, and prospector zone are gated by star systems later in arc eternal.
EDIT2: I just assumed you had beaten arc eternal. it will take some time to get to farbour, as it is near the end of arc eternal.

I have, my version just goes wrong and locks me out of missions, bit of a bug

Just for clarification, you mean the first inhibitor world in Tormented Space right? There is another world with a similar name.

I don't bother with any of the maps from outside of Colonial because there are so many fake times it is impossible to know where you stand. The first Arc maps have times as low as 7 seconds, ridiculous!

yeah, the first star system, the tiny world in that system.

arc, prospector, alpha, and tormented have fake scores, though there are also some tormented worlds with 0 scores.
EDIT: tormented isnt as bad, but some may have fake scores.
