News: Release #744 Review

03/09/19 - 04:23:54

Dear XJ,

The WR Release #744 was remarkable for several reasons and in our opinion deserves more attention. Recent ROTW post speaks for itself, incredible performance of

g-Lp

magnified by

blackelf

's edit definitely belong into XJ's highlights of the present times. If you haven't checked it yet, do it now. However, ROTW is just a tiny little highlight of the last release. To give you more, we asked the main stars to find out more about these demos.

With 8 WRs in WR Release #744,

round

not only has the most demos in the release, but also has boosted his WR count by 200% and improved his time on kz_synergy_x2 by FOUR(!) minutes. We asked him to describe his way to this achievement. Although

fykseN

is streaming for a while now, he's beaten some WRs during what he calls to be the best streaming session so far. Read more for stream clip and his words.

Furthermore, XJ's longest-lasting record on kz_giantbean_b15[1337trees] (9 years, 6 months, 16 days) has been beaten. Full journey explanation to be read in the extended newspost!

Huge thanks to

Good evening XJ,

It's a fact that choosing the ROTW is not easy, especially in releases like this one. However, this time it's claimed by the climb mastermind himself -

g-Lp

. We are talking about an outplay here, a little French comeback with a huge improve on an iconic map. It has been 7 years since the last record and the style evolution is perfectly visible.

g-Lp

makes it look smooth and easy by reforging the record as a whole.

The feeling of oldschool is empowered by an edit from none other than

blackelf

. The song choice will probably take you back to 2010. Calm and collected strafing with signature doubleducks solidify the illusion.

Embrace the vibe, enjoy the clip!

Hey everyone,

Today along with multiple other entries, we're announcing a new world record.

memek

has managed to beat the 274 block with a double countjump. Thank you

en3y

for the video highlighting this amazing jump. Congratulations for the new record and to all the jumpers for their entries!

We also recently asked the community if XJ should extend the LJ tops to 10. With over 80% of the votes supporting this idea, the tops now have 10 positions each. We ask for patience with future LJ updates since we assume the flow of demos will be quite overwhelming at first. You're allowed to submit older demos for the tops too.

But enough talking, here are your new entries:

News: ROTW #219 - shNz on cg_coldbhop_v2

Howdy XJ,

It is time to release the ROTW #219! This week, picking up the run was difficult to say the least. So many good runs in the last release by many players but

shNz

definitely did stand out once again. Many of his runs could have been picked but cg_coldbhop_v2 won the lottery! Even if it is just a 0.01 seconds improvement, it tells you how good the run already was. In fact, I personally thought that

neXt.

could have it forever... But no,

shNz

decided to give it a try!

He executed the run in a very different style from the previous World Record. Doing new skips and longer combos, almost bhopping the whole map! So how come he "only" improved by 0.01 seconds? He did some extra SCJs which ate x amount of time from the previous run. Hopefully, we will see a battle movie in the future to analyze these runs in a closer view.

About the edit: I tried to bring oldschool vibes to this cool and old map as cg_coldbhop_v2 is. Enjoy your watch!

News: UE4 Project - shNz on bkz_goldbhop

21/07/19 - 19:43:47

Written by: fykseN

Good evening, XJ!

This time we would like to present something uncommon. Something that was not so wide-spread throughout the community when released.

In previous years, there were ambitious projects using more advanced procedures and moviemaking software.
We all remember

IceVip

and his breakthrough in this matter, following up with other moviemakers experimenting with C4D usage as well. This time it's

kawai

, and his new storyline/atmospheric project created using Unreal Engine 4.

There is not a brick (maybe grain of sand in this case) on its place after this re-edition. The movement was affected a lot as well, you can barely expect anything conventional. Using the well known formula of bkz_goldbhop in a case where it is not a cliché certainly turns heads. Just from top of my memory, I remember iNsprate's C4D edit of kz_summercliff2 which is very organic and fun to watch (due to his map/run choice). Nevertheless this time it's bkz_goldbhop, like never before:

A few words from

kawai

himself:

It should be the 4th speed-run movie I created with UE4 workflow, which is inspired by the classic KZ map, namely bkz_goldbhop. The jumper, shNz , is one of my idols in this game-mode. He was away for so long but was finally back these days and brought such amazing demos to us. I made this speed-run movie, just to share my feelings to all the people: shNz is back, and he is always that unique shNz . This movie is not traditional KZ movie, so it's not easy to make everyone happy with it. Thanks for watching and supporting!
