Broodmother Speedrun in

- The fastest Broodmother speedrun I'll ever do!
This was run on patch 1.1, before the added stagger cooldown, spear nerfs and Broodmother boss fight changes.
This is a tool assisted speedrun (TAS) because I used four different macros, each assigned to a different button on my mouse:
"Give up" macro pauses the game, hits the "give up" option and presses space to quickly make me not alive anymore. Saves minimal time but it was nice to make it a single button press.
"Spam E" macro does just that, rapidly presses E so I can pick stuff up and build stuff much much faster than normal. Pretty simple. Also makes the boss fight a bit simpler because I don't have to focus as much on picking the spears back up.
"Burg.L" macro mashes the 1 key to get through Burg.L's dialogue quicker and then turns in the chip immediately after.
And the most important one, the "door fling" macro. As you'll see, the door fling glitch can be used to get across the yard at absurd speed which is the crux of this route. It requires precise positioning and timing key presses. So the macro presses E to close the door, after a 15ms delay presses E again to open the door, then after another 15ms delay presses jump.
Because the door essentially teleports to the open position on the other side of the doorframe, if you jump while it's in the process of closing and opening you'll get its momentum transfered to you which sends you flying! This same behaviour is what allows us to get out of bounds with the door as well, although a macro isn't needed for that.
This was also a set seed run, so I'd make a save before I even move every time I started a run and if the rng was good I would use that initial save for future runs. It was taking too long to find the perfect seed though (this one still isn't perfect, four acorns in one area and four coal from one deposit would make it even better), so I started specifially hunting for a good seed which had:
Aphids at the start
4 acorn shells on the ground
10 chunks from 3 berries
Miteloaf in the hedge lab chest
5 boiling glands from the 5 bombardiers
4 coal from 2 deposits
Boost juice smoothie in the hedge lab outpost
This run was purely intended to show what's possible in the game so I'll obviously not be claiming any records with this run. Does that even need to be said?
Hope you enjoy!

There's me going into the broodmother fight with 85 smoothies, 110 bandages, 59 meals, fully upgraded gear and weapons (exaggerating on the numbers a bit but you get the point lol). Then there's you going in with a 3 pebblets and a few pebblet spears.💀🤣 Impressive stuff, great job!
Haha I did the same at first tbf! Just had to yolo in with minimal gear to see what I could just about survive with, then Seethrew unlocked the hucking pebblet spears strat and that was the last piece we needed
First broodmother fight I did I was so overpreped i could have beaten it 3 times in a row if I brought more BLTs lol
@@memeboi3448I can’t even beat a spider yet😭
Spicy coaltauna= ez tho
It’s a tas
here’s your money, what I asked for
i’m a big fan
Yooo thanks so much! Really appreciate it
it’s funny ruclips.net/user/shortsp2QbINX7kFA?si=zImynD5W4v-JELdG
I always enjoy these Speedruns, it goes to show how fast you can go by breaking the game
That's good to hear. That was the plan!
It’s a tas which means it’s a computer program it’s not humanly possible to do these inputs as a human. But you’re right it’s still cool to watch
@@Dosa-xp1nj Tbf the tricks are doable by a human, it would just take more attempts due to the inconsistency of the door fling (which I was able to bypass for this run using a macro). This run could still be cleaned up a bit so I think this time is actually beatable by a human following the same route and on a patch before the spear nerf and broodmother buff.
Actually yeah check out Chillax's new AssMan WR, first legit speedrun to use a door fling! ruclips.net/video/VJY0ViYGRFg/видео.html
@@HolyCodzta well the man has spoken
Grass door is op.
The very fast typing in the beginning is funny.
6:03 to 6:06 oh my god.
The insane E spam is funny aswell.
This video explains why im subbed.
Glad you liked it! This is one of my favourite runs to watch for sure
It’s crazy how tas can make you do things that are possible in the game but are impossible for a human to do
This route is actually human viable! And people like Zylo and Chillax have already used the door launch in legit assistant manager runs
Damn, this one was nutty. Doing all the jumping while moving the oven was you showboating, right? Great job!
Aha no it was actually necessary! Because I slept at the start to be able to scan more stuff it'd be too soon to sleep again if I flung myself to the hedge, so setting the BLT to cook and running with to hedge with it is the fastest way there. Lines up nicely because it gets done cooking basically right at the brood den entrance
infected broodmother speedrun next 😭
When fighting the bombardiers you should get the aphid statue for the mutation and get the 4th gland faster. You just need insane run. Just a suggestion, but it might help!
Could do that now yeah for sure! Despite what the intro says I actually ran this on a patch before any of the loot luck stuff was added
Bro i was flabbergasted when he was at the rake i was like "why is he making a door?" And proceeds to break every law of physics there is
Physics? Never heard of him
very nice man keep up the way of playing cus its really wonderfull to watch
What a lovely comment! Glad you enjoyed
Dude this TAS guys masters every game
ikr how is he everywhere?!
What TAS elements do you use? (I know nothing about grounded speedruns), are there tools for savestates, rng manipulation etc?
All I used was a handful of macros, can check description for more info on those. Oh and a set seed, forgot to add that. This was all one continuous run that I started from a save at the very start of the game, 0 days 7 hours and 0 minutes. Haven't heard of any tools for save states or rng manipulation because Grounded is hard to mod, might be doable though and we just don't know how yet
Do you ever plan on doing this for bosses like the infected broodmother or the mantis
I do, yeah. Guess I should get cracking!
I have watched all of your speedruns, my favourite has to be the 5:28 Black widow on Woah difficulty. Quick question though, , do you know if the door glitch still works on 1.34?
Damn, thanks! Why'd you like that one the most, cause it was on woah? Door glitches got patched with 1.3 :(
@HolyCodzta Yeah, the main reason why I like it so much is because neither me or my friends can get even close to beating a widow on woah diff. Then you come along and decimate it in 5 minutes with a few pebblet spears which is insane. Also pretty sad that it got patched, thanks for letting me know 👍.
There is something that just seems off about the camera movement it usually looks pretty snappy in the most tas runs ive seen, where as this runs camera movement is smooth. Still incredible though!
Probably because it's still me playing! Any amount of randomness means you can't run the same inputs every time, so it's about as tool assisted as a Grounded can get without just using console commands to spawn items in or whatever. More explanation in description
W!!! 💯💯💯🔥 🔥🔥🔥👌👌👌😱
😎
best grounded speedrunner, insane strats. hope i can do this one day! also what do you use to get the macros
I have a logitech mouse so used logitech G hub and made the macros myself
awesome thanks
@@HolyCodztacan you do a video about what macros are you using?
@@Rae167 No worries. I hope you can do this one day too! Can join the Grounded speedrunning discord if ever want help with anything, there's a good few people in there. Or just comment on a vid and I'll almost certainly see it, up to you!
@@jksb4172 I did write about them in the description but maybe I could do a video as well yeah
Suas speedrun são tão boas gosto muito de assistir elas
Estou feliz que tenha gostado deles!
Bro movers so fast the spider had no time to spawn in
Moves
Just the beginning alone was enough for me to give a like lol.
Haha glad someone liked it!
Minute 6.45 what is that Green Tooth i might ask baut good run
It's just a mega molar but they coloured it green because it's in the hedge. Kinda cool!
Dude, how in the hell did you figure out these strategies?
I watched this before reading the description and thought this was straight up a bot playing or something. Absolute insanity.
I just casually played grounded and never expected the speedruns to be so entertaining.
Well it was another speedrunner Zylo that found the door launch glitch and I've been running Broodmother on and off for almost a year now, so once Zylo found that glitch it was just a matter of figuring out where to launch from to skip as much walking as possible.
This is probably the craziest Grounded speedrun uploaded so far but some others have been working on a glitched any% run which is gonna look insane, so keep an eye out for that.
Glad you enjoyed though, I thoroughly enjoyed reading this comment!
@@HolyCodzta thank you for entertainment, brother. Looking forward to seeing you then the new any% route.
Самый человечный спидран Таса. Не играв в игру, я виже кучу оплошностей. Долгая настройка положения на двери, промахи по ягоде, медленная победа над жуком, также промахи по ему. А ведь я даже и половины не посмотрел. В общем не идеальное прохождение, скип
A tas doesn't mean every input has to be assisted, that would be impossible in Grounded with the random AI pathing and attack patterns. I used a few macros for this run (read about them in the description if you want) which means I was assisted by a tool, hence tool assisted speedrun
I hope you'll try and attempt to fight broodmother with her changes.
No plans for another broodmother run for a while but she is required for some other runs so will be in those...
imagine you from burgls pov. some kid you dont know helps you up, runs around the lab, makes a shovel while nodding rapidly at you, basically ignores your incoherent rambling, gives you a computer chip you didnt know existed, heads to the computer and buys things from your store at the speed of light, then spontaneously dies never to be seen again
Haha honestly surprised how Burg.l is remotely sane after seeing me do that so many times
GG man, Well done 👍😊
Thanks! This took way too long haha
Is that easy difficulty? Spear doesn't do that much damage?
This was on mild yeah and it was also before they nerfed thrown spear damage
I love your profile picture (Abe's Odyssey is one of my favorite games)
Eyyy heck yeah! I think you might be the second person to ever comment on it! Abe's Oddysee might have been the first game I ever played
It’s not real you have to put your hand on the scanner to use the raw science shop
Nope just need to rescue Burg.L
I think you should do more TAS runs. Maybe one where it gets the good ending, maybe one that kills the Infected Broodmother, etc.
Glad you like them! Wasn't planning on doing any more at least for a while because I wanted to run mantis and other bosses and now my any% got beat I've gotta get that record back too. Definitely not ruling out doing more though! Oh yeah Zylo actually beat my AssMan tas legit by a second lol, can check that out here: ruclips.net/video/0SQqJjh4Yqw/видео.html
OK... Mild.. that explains a great deal. I was like.. wtf.. Broodmother never hit me that softly before... when u ate that double hit from the jump attack I was like.. wait a second... what is going on here... cause I have eaten a few of those and never been so scratch resistant. Entertaining to watch.
Hahaha yeah that acorn chest piece doing wonders for me there! Glad you enjoyed
I can kill broodmother without any sort of heals only mutations
Nice!
The question is door?
And the answer is obsidian is crying
So they made it so we can't stand on doors anymore and now I'm the one crying
Oh god finaly another speedrun❤😊
Only took me two months! Thanks for hanging around
👍🤌👌
The infected brood mother speed run i wanna see it so badly
I will try
This is incredible. I would totally watch a pinch whacker speedrun though. Your goal would be to get a pinch whacker as soon as possible.
You're not the first to suggest that actually and I did come up with a route so maybe I'll do it at some point. Hack-3m_64 has done one, can check it out here! ruclips.net/video/3TOpAxg7cWw/видео.html
May I ask why you slept early on? Is there something special about the time of day?
Certainly!
I slept because I needed to scan plant fibre, pebblet, clover, aphid and grass to make crude rope, axe, spears, slippers, bandage, lean-to and door. That's 5 things to scan though and it's too long to wait for the analyser to recharge so I sleep to recharge it straight away
@@HolyCodzta Ah, I get it. Thank you.
No worries!
Maybe there is undiscovered speed running tactics on this game considering how few are speedrunning it
Most likely! Would be cool to see what could be found if Grounded got the same attention as the games in MoistCritikal's challenges
Why do you kill yourself in the beginning?
I had to on this run because this was run on a set save so I wanted to make sure my character position was at the start, but I also do it on other runs because we start time when you gain control of your character and it's easier to start the timer at the same time as pressing respawn rather than eyeballing when the game gives you control
Why does the broodmother not use her scream in your fights? It would be nice to know if there is a way to avoid that since it applies a attack damage reduction.
It's just rng! Got lucky and she decided not to scream on this run
@@HolyCodzta Ah I see.
That was amazing!
When infected broodmother speedrun? XDDDD
Tomorrow? Nah no idea haha, gonna be a tough one
woooooweeee
in two years we gonna getting rid of our zipline towers and replacing them wt door towers
Yeah way more fun! I was thinking you could have a secret base out of bounds that you get to with a door
are u streaming this somewhere or just uploading youtube ?
No streams yet, hopefully soon though!
@@HolyCodzta ill hope so would be fun to watch,u would had my prime sub KEKW
6:03 his finger is a freaking autoclicker 💀
I wish! Used a macro for that (it's a TAS, check description)
i 100% need your graphic settings tell me pleaseee🙏
Sure thing! Will do when I'm back at my pc. You know how to edit GameUserSettings.ini and make it read only already?
Oh I think I've changed my settings since this video, here's my best guess at what they were though:
sg.ResolutionQuality=98.000000
sg.ViewDistanceQuality=3
sg.AntiAliasingQuality=3
sg.ShadowQuality=2
sg.PostProcessQuality=1
sg.TextureQuality=2
sg.EffectsQuality=0
sg.FoliageQuality=0
sg.ShadingQuality=1
let me guess next speedrun going to be infected broodmother xD
Maaaaaybeeeeeee
@@HolyCodzta codzta has been caught!
Who needs to do the story when you can do this
There's a story? Who knew ;)
Molehill massacre incoming!
They won't know what hit em!
How are you healing so much so fast in the broodmother fight
Just eating granolas
parry master!
congratz
You know it! Thanks
i’m not too knowledgeable about this kind of stuff but why does it seem like there are a couple mistakes that would lose time if it is a tas
The macros can only help so much like with the door launches, giving up and spamming E to pick stuff up and build, everything else is still down to my execution. So the run is still assisted by tools, just not to the level of a Trackmania tas or something
@@HolyCodzta oh i see yeah i was under the assumption that the entire run was made frame by frame with a computer
That would be dope if we could do that! Maybe in a couple years when AI can play games at a good level we could teach one to run Grounded haha
*looks at all the door flinging*
Good god what have I done?
You dang opened Pandora's box man!
Imagine glich abusing 😅
Don't need to imagine, can just watch this video!
@@HolyCodzta ye, and you could do new video with dr.schmector speedrun👍🏻
I beat the game now 😊
Congrats!
Infected Broodmother when? LoL
That is the run isn't it! Have started theorycrafting but don't have a route yet and there's bound to be stuff I've overlooked so it'll surely get iterated on a lot
Codzta I smell time save, if you got gud you wouldn’t need the acorn chestplate.
Yeahh so I was trying that before I started running from a set seed but I would die often enough that I didn't want to risk a good rng run by not having the chestpiece. Then when I started running from a set save I just kinda forgot to try again without the armour. I also experimented with a different route at the start but that was before I had the hedge launch consistent, then after I decided to figure out how to get that consistent again I just forgot/decided not to try that route again.
I could probably downpatch my game and do it again for the sub 17 but broodmother has been done to death at this point and people wanna see schmector, mantis, ibm, etc so I'd run all those before I go back to brood tas
@@HolyCodzta I mean a schmector runs just kind of a full game speedrun isn’t it. Cause you fight him after doing all the labs, fight itself isn’t even that fun because he’s just a slightly stronger assistant manager that you can dunk easily.
@@XxEggman_Meme_GodxX I could do a good ending speedrun but glitched schmector could be like 10 minutes. Pretty sure Chillax found a way in using the door glitch
@@HolyCodzta yea I guess, I know it’s more time consuming but glitchless runs are actually way more impressive and difficult, I tried doing one and it impressed people more than me just skipping all of this awesome game.
Cause without glitches, you gotta get full tier 3 tools, a decent weapon (so a club lol), gotta fight a ton of robots and insects, and gotta do the final defence without wanting to die.
Xd
5:58 idk why this made me laugh
Haha me too ngl, I like doing little things like that where I can
good job
Cheers
i wish i had ppl to play this with
Are you on discord? The official Grounded discord has a channel specifically for finding others to play with there. I see people find groups on reddit pretty frequently too
What's were them glitches?
Them's were door glitches! Got patched up in version 1.3 I'm sorry to say
Why the death in the beginning?
This was from a set save so I respawned to show I was starting from the very start
This man is BUILT DIFFERENT😊
10:47 how did you calculate this
Well when I built the door I actually lined it up so I could get the launch to the bbq spill, then I thought it would save time if I destroyed and rebuilt the door the fewest number of times possible so just messed with different launch positions until I found one that launched me to the thistle/Flat Rock.
Figured out that the closer to the frame you stand the slower and less distance you travel so then started using similar positioning to launch to the bombardiers by the hedge
@@HolyCodzta your acting like this a regular Tuesday for you💀
uauuuuuu
the speedrun king is back
☝️ 'Promo sm'
Cheeky
this is real speed
bro you are crazy
Why do you prefer First person?
That is a great question! Thinking back to the first games I ever played, they were things like Abe's Oddysee, Super Mario on the original Gameboy, Metal Gear Solid etc, and they're all third person. Got very into Halo though so maybe it was playing so much of that that made me prefer first person, not sure.
I've tried third person in Grounded and it can help with combat and I think I actually prefer the look of it because you can see more, but for parkour I'd say first person is just better because your character doesn't block your view so you can see exactly where you want to land.
Do you prefer first or third person?
@@HolyCodzta ohh I see. I like both but Im actually playing some FPS games like Pubg, Escape from tarkov both are first person, I tried first person in Grounded but only for parkour as you said, for fights I prefer third and sometimes both
Ah nice, used to like a bit of Pubg back when I was on xbox. Fair one though, a mix of both does seem best for Grounded
You remind me that no matter how good I think I am, you'll always be better
Beside the fact that it doesn't really matter who's better, I only post the highlights! You don't get to see all the mistakes and failed runs which might make you change your tune hahaha
@@HolyCodztathose could be fun runs to watch. As a way to see what parts usually killed most runs aha. But keep them up, I love watching the speedruns!
Do have a good amount of recordings saved still actually, thinking of posting some fails as shorts
Wauu 😮👏
This is so sick
What does TAS mean?
Tool Assisted Speedrun. Can check the description for an explanation of the macros I used!
Subbed because how epic that was
Legend
This is so incredible. I wonder how there could possibly be improvements.
Thanks! This could definitely be sub 17 with a cleaner run and there was another potential route that I'm not sure is better but I was so practiced on this route I stuck with it instead of switching
that burgl spam was insane
IKR
Used a macro for it but it is satisfying to watch
holy s
holy c ;)
Melhor do mundo
Você tem certeza? Obrigado!
Is the door fling exploit super precise, or could someone do it without TASing?
I'm guessing positioning is just for deciding where you end up, and not necessary for getting the fling to happen. Looks like a single frame-perfect 'e' input after closing the door, which sounds doable given a few attempts, but I assume you know a lot more about it, so I figured I'd ask. :p
Yeah it's a weird one, I need to test it more to be sure but it should be doable. There's a decent range of time between each key press where a launch can still happen, but I was just messing around for 5 minutes today trying to do it legit and even with the same line-up on the door I was getting launched to my death, suggesting that the timing also plays a part in the direction of the launch.
To test it I plan to find the minimum and maximum delay possible between each key press and then record my own keystrokes to compare and help me learn the timing.
There are some positions where a fling doesn't happen and the inputs are E E Space, to close the door, open it again then jump. I think it's learnable but it would take a lot more trial and error so I'm keen to test it with the macro to speedrun learning it
@@HolyCodzta Awesome, thanks for the reply! Yeah, I would be interested in your testing. I think it would be awesome if we could find a consistent setup for a human to be able to perform it. (At least within some degree of accuracy)
Even slightly imprecise with a tuft would probably save a lot of time in general.
Yeah for sure. I'd say I got the launches about 90% as perfect as I could have for this run, I think the haze was the most refined. But for getting to hedge lab, even just launching to the grass up there would save a ton of time
why don't you do it legit? why always with a hack or cheat?
What do you mean always? I've only done two tas runs!
You're not a true speed runner.
How come? :(
Must be on easy
Yeah was on mild and no not dying is not a requirement ;) Might do deathless at some point but would make the run a lot longer
