10/20 - 1:43 Using the hawk45 layout except that the 2 Western most collectors are moved West against the elevation change so that Odin City may set down on the plateau.

@hawk45 Your 10/19 time is 50 seconds faster than mine and you're predicting another 30 second drop. My hat is again tipped to you sir.

10/17 - 2:56 There are probably 2 more seconds to knock off. My thanks to carusoo for showing me the North passage. Link follows: https://picasaweb.google.com/chilesej/Artwork#6071997786277561570

@iMiPi, it takes about 5-10 playthroughs depending on the mission. I usually play at double speed, but use a LOT of pausing. 10/19 - 3:44 A time around 3:15 should be possible

10/17 - 2:57 Using ODIN CITY moving along the North edge. 3 Blasters along the North edge. No other weapons. I never would have though about using the North wall without seeing carusoo's screenshot.

@iMiPi - You actually started this fast time hunger by showing us the way with your pioneering display of screenshots, videos and tutorial comments. My respect.

@hawk45. I typically run a map using DOUBLE SPEED and PAUSE. When it gets down to having to move ODIN CITY or a SAM base in a hovered mode, I will slow the game down to NORMAL SPEED. If I see a time is really short compared to what I did, I will sometimes let the game run to the record fast time to see how far the CREEPER expands, then I'll build collectors just out of reach of that. This is just to play catch-up to hawk45 and carusoo, who almost always kick my time to pieces at first. I use to sometimes post a challenge of playing a game in REAL TIME (no PAUSE) and, of course, the times are much higher unless you've played the level often. It usually takes me about 5-10 times to get a score close to the best, but I've played some levels 25 times in an effort to knock off that final second. More often than not, one of the big boys has come up with a layout that I hadn't even considered, as carusoo did on 10/17.

hawk45, carusoo, chilese and anyone who plays for crazy short times, could you give me a guess of the real time it takes you to get such amazing results? I mean, if you pause a lot, or if you make 2 or 3 attempts, how much total time do you play to get a great time on one particular map?

10/17 - 3:24 Which seems less wonderful after seeing your 3:02 carusoo. I refuse to look at your screenshot (for a little while).

Well, I've been playing each day for over a year now. Been following you all in the comments and figured I should just say hi. So, - Hi.

wish there was a mission generator button, that way you wouldn't have to wait a full day to play a new map...just a thought. Or you could list all missions for the month in a calendar format and be able to view previous months maps.
