The start of this segment is normally blacked out, but since I made a new segment it shows up in light. Possible improvements: Use a barrel for a speed boost down the dark hallway. The long elevator sequence was annoying because the elevator often got stuck due to a glitch, which would damage me and kill the scientist, which instantly failed the game. I jump and air-strafe to the lower level to skip using the ladder. Possible improvements: Use the pistol's secondary function to break the window quicker, but it is less accurate. At 1:41 I shoot out a window and jump to the other side to save a trip downstairs. It's necessary to pick up the vest and armor because Barney (imagine that, a whole crowd of Barneys in this place) doesn't let you through if you don't. I jump over the railing so I don't have to go around the stairs. Possible improvements: None that I know of, unless there is some way to make Barney open the door earlier. I sprayed the wall for fun, it's a habit of mine to do that when things are dull. I made this segment so that I wouldn't have to listen to Barney's speech over and over. I used the Steam version of Blue Shift, with no scripts. Since both Half-Life and Opposing Force already have runs, this completes the triumvirate. The game is Half-Life: Blue Shift, one of the expansions for Half-Life, the other being Opposing Force. This is my first and likely last non-TAS speedrun, since I have a hectic school schedule. * Radon for his run of Half-Life which I took some strategies for fighting marines * ballofsnow and darkwasabi for helping with encoding problems * groobo for bringing to my attention the tactic of wall-strafing * slynk, Zhouy, and acxy500 for their help in finding shortcuts
* Downup and Dark_Devil for their previous runs of Blue Shift * Radix, Nate, DJGrenola, and Mike Uyama for their work in maintaining SDA Available in six versions: low/normal quality DivX, and normal/high/insane/low quality H.264 MPEG-4. Speed run of Half-Life: Blue Shift on Hard mode in 27 segments appended to one file, completed on January 11 2007.
