if you got questions or want to see any of this done live, check me out @ www.twitch.tv/friendlybaron Many people are probably going to ask what Strats i have found myself, so i will answer it here - most strats i have found myself or worked on are older strats from a few months ago. recently, i have been doing my preferred action - instead of finding strats myself, i am usually busy confirming other peoples strat ideas either offstream or in videos like this one. the new routing reloe found i did alot of testing of, and found many little notes about the gauntlet dupes by just doing them within runs. coming up with strats from scratch is not something im very good at nor enjoy much, so i try to give back to the community by helping test as much as i can and confirming what strats are and are not actually faster. its not a requirement for people to make strats anyways, and lately theres been a culture of EVERYONE MUST CONTRIBUTE STRATSwhich isnt right. some people just dont enjoy that side of speedrunning, so no pressure on anyone if its not something they take part in. is just a game fren (if you reply to this comment i will read it but youtube makes it hard to reply to, if you want a reply then add a new comment to the video, not to this pin, thanks
Im bad at speedruning anything, juts love wtaching ur speedruns, sadly i dont watch all your streams because u start streaming late in my country. Much love
11:10 correct me if I'm wrong but isn't there a faster strat? If memory serves right you can set michael on fire with a molotov, which allows you to run at normal speed with the heavy armor. You can skip the whole shootout and carry the fight into the last room, right before you hop on the train
6:00 “This extra time spent watching this guy fall into the nether realm would make the cutscene take 7 extra seconds, which was pretty annoying.” lol.
You have a talent for explaining stuff that really not many channels do. You can put yourself in the viewer's shoes and cover everything he wants to know
Watching a member fall into the nether for eternal suffering from the ghast: Annoying Having the cold shower water hitting you in the morning: Infuriating
my older series, like casual vs speedrun, had 100s of strats and was basically impossible to credit people on, most of the information was just lost to time, 2013-2014 especially. but these new vids are doing up-to-date strats so i can make a proper effort to credit people in-the-moment.
yeah its basically a tradition at this point, i finish the video at 3am, upload it and fall asleep. so tired even watching it back once to check stuff i miss 1-2 mistakes.
Jesus this video got 1360 views in 2 minute! And you're also my most favourite youtuber so I'm happy that you got that much views this fast. Keep up the good work. I also learned a lot from your other videos It's really helpful. Thanks!
The running strat can be used in Repossession to get closer to the fence or to run through the alley on right and have the biker spawn in a different location. Both are quicker, but going right is a little harder because it is a hard turn while running that way
interesting never though of going right. though theres a new strat - just shoot the biker later - that way hes already facing the right way when you blap him.
@@FriendlyBaron It's amazing what you can do with a proper engine. Same with RDR2. I play World of Warcraft a lot more recently, and people tell me how good the graphics of the current update are, and it's just the style of WoW.... And then I look at other games,... and what they can do...
yeah its two separate things really, improving the run's strats but also improving your own play. i could hammer another 2 minutes off the run just by perfecting the driving, and no other changes if i really worked at it
@@FriendlyBaron I would say perfect driving later, or at least somewhat later. I think some of your biggest saves could come from the sections where you get pushed from the cars trying to get in front of you. Granted I don't really know how much time this would actually save you on your runs.
This actually saves 0.0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001 seconds *but time is time*
@@FriendlyBaron it is hard And i loveee your vids I sometimes use speedrun strats just playing like normal mode and most i got from yo. welp ima fanboying
yeah. its not actually faster as you have to spend time picking up the mollys. we kind of have a chance to get them now, but shooting as franklin is still faster when done well, and the molotov thing isnt consistent.
You right XD I've been on your stream before btw, it was pretty good, I was the guy who was 100%-ing GTA San Andreas while I watched, I came from Hugo_One's host
You used the same song as in the menu of Grand Turismo 4 at the begining :) edit: the second song is from grand turismo 4 too xd / when u got a new car as a gift it had this song in the back

FriendlyBaron do u think there will be a sub 6 hour run ?
11:10 correct me if I'm wrong but isn't there a faster strat? If memory serves right you can set michael on fire with a molotov, which allows you to run at normal speed with the heavy armor. You can skip the whole shootout and carry the fight into the last room, right before you hop on the train
0:25 this is the gay button according to the RUclips's subtitles
Well it sounds like.that
Billy Mark it made me gay... i’m sueing r*
Nevermind it’s kinda nice tbh
WeirdChamp
im glad i saw this
2:19 " unoriginal guy had the idea..... "
Ironic
?
The name 'unoriginal guy' is ironic because he had an original idea to optimise the run.
its like having the name Jack Meoff
@@FriendlyBaron Pronounced Meff, mind you ;)
@@Slimmeyy your name is probably jack meoff
6:00 “This extra time spent watching this guy fall into the nether realm would make the cutscene take 7 extra seconds, which was pretty annoying.” lol.
Watching a man fall to an eternity of suffering in the nether: annoying
Having the shower water be cold in the morning when it hits you: infuriating
FriendlyBaron true tho
FriendlyBaron I couldn’t agree with you more!
zombie pigman boi is back home
Speed runner: saves 0.1 second
*STONKS*
I approve of the large amount of gran turismo background music.
edit: oh hey over 400 people agree
it makes it feel less special tho :\
Igor
Gran Turismo menu music is excellent, one of the really great things about the GT games.
hellllllll yeah
Agreed. Fully. I feel a little warm when someone gives it a moment of spotlight by using it.
You have a talent for explaining stuff that really not many channels do. You can put yourself in the viewer's shoes and cover everything he wants to know
Gran Turismo 4 music.... so many good memories
I love this
i dont hear it
and Gran Turismo 2 too
AlphaAscii nah the sped up gran turismo 3 dealership theme is better
Glad I wasnt the only one who immediately caught this
Hey look mom, it’s me
Woah nice dude!
i was in the video too :)
FriendlyBaron nice! Aren’t we lucky?
5:49 I know right. SO annoying when you have to watch one of your heist crew go into the nether realm. Unbelievable.
Watching a member fall into the nether for eternal suffering from the ghast: Annoying
Having the cold shower water hitting you in the morning: Infuriating
smh happens to me all the time
MT Bullock It’s like come on bro, keep it together
I like how you show both the old and the new strats, and explain how they work. nice video!
thanks! yeah for sure showing both makes it much more clearer whats going on
You make the best GTA V speed running videos, hands down. No one compares.
not a competition with anyone, but glad ya like em :)
18:31 You laughing at "Commander Dick" is just so adorable.
i didnt realized the name until i went to record it LOL
Hmm..
@@ZellDen1 you are gae
1:42 discovered by darkviperAU in his pacifist%
Edit:2:09 he acctually says that
yeah viper didnt find it first, Mattie did and viper found a way to actually make it useful lol
im not allowed to watch gta but i still watch
12:25 just a little correction. It was actually my idea to do this jump but masaboy provided you the gameplay :) Good video nevertheless :)
yepa ^^
aw heck i shoulda double checked, i had made those notes ages ago :)

I had to check if I somehow had Gran Turismo running in the background, lol
10:51 *Hears GT3 GT Auto Theme*
I see you're a man of culture as well
I think its actually GT4? heck idk but yes is good
It's gt4
I haven't played GTA 5 in years but I absolutely love your videos and always watch them :D
thanks!
It sounds friendly, very good.
I like it when everyone is friendly
o rly
i mean i love it and the skills are amazing... but i don't get it
Speedruner are the reason why i love video games and learn about its algorithm.
Thanks for crediting people! Nice video tho. I really enjoyed it.
my older series, like casual vs speedrun, had 100s of strats and was basically impossible to credit people on, most of the information was just lost to time, 2013-2014 especially. but these new vids are doing up-to-date strats so i can make a proper effort to credit people in-the-moment.
@@FriendlyBaron it's definetly better like this :D
Intro song just threw me instantly back to Gran Turismo 4...
Man, those were the days
i didnt even play GT games as a kid but have digged the music
Your videos about GTAV speedrunning are my favourite ones. Looking forward for more gud content!
thanks :)
7:07 you wrote Jewel Store Heist when it supposed to be Mr Philips
He does that often
yeah its basically a tradition at this point, i finish the video at 3am, upload it and fall asleep. so tired even watching it back once to check stuff i miss 1-2 mistakes.
I just found double tapping a comment with a time stamp auto presses it
I don’t play gta, but it’s still satisfying to watch
Look Ma, I'm in the video! And he said my name right...what a time to be alive haha
AHAHA! i wanted to ask you how to say it but didnt have time, went for the guess
Jesus this video got 1360 views in 2 minute! And you're also my most favourite youtuber so I'm happy that you got that much views this fast. Keep up the good work. I also learned a lot from your other videos It's really helpful. Thanks!
glad you enjoy :)
Heck u and wintergatan uploaded at he same time, both are good idk who to watch first
It always a nice surprise to find someone who has the same viewing habits as me. Btw I learned how to say idea
It's a difficult choice. Speed running or breaking thread taps
Except it isn't Wednesday, my dude
watch both at the same time, duh
Never done a speedrun,but this explanation got me hooked
welcome to the rabbit hole, most people just watch speedruns instead of doing them, i was like that for ages!
@@FriendlyBaron fine work brother, it take hardwork and consistency to do a speedrun
I still don’t like watching streams and/or speed runs but the amount of speedrun strats I now know is ridiculous.
20 minute strat update video? Perfect.
heck yeah was nice to make another long vid
hey a strat for the mission father son,jump down the hill and it will trigger the checkpoint earlier and make the yatch truck
push you
i think reloe mentioned this to me recently, will have to check...
omg the music ❤️❤️❤️ i miss those days playin gran turismo 4
It’s crazy that the speed run for a game like this is this optimized
The running strat can be used in Repossession to get closer to the fence or to run through the alley on right and have the biker spawn in a different location. Both are quicker, but going right is a little harder because it is a hard turn while running that way
interesting never though of going right. though theres a new strat - just shoot the biker later - that way hes already facing the right way when you blap him.
On Mondays I dread the week to come, but just seeing your vids in my feed calms me down. Can't wait to watch this thing in bed
i wanted to change my upload day to not be mondays anymore but so many people were sad when i changed it for one week LOL. gonna stay for now :)
11:43 i can see wuestion mark in Trevor's head.
love your content and I think you deserve more subs keep up the good work
That Gran Turismo 4 soundtrack at the back tho... Nice
heck yeah
Me watching the video without really understanding anything: I like your funny words magic man
A friendly video from friendly baron on my birthday, damn it feels like Christmas.
Baronmas?
When are you going to start the casual vs speedrun for gta sa?
soonish, im still working on learning the game to a point where im knowledgeable enough to teach others.
FriendlyBaron allright, i am really looking forward to that series, i also like your other vids😃
@@FriendlyBaron We better get a possibilty of a sub-6 run before that xD
@@FriendlyBaron I see that there are only two parts of the GTA SA Casual vs Speedrun series. Why are you inactive on RUclips?
Pause on 11:44 there’s a question mark on his head lol
hilarious
Love the music. Good to see you sticking at it, Baron! 💜💜💜
thanks :)
even now, one just has to admire how beautiful this game still is.
i recently raised my graphics settings, it could look much better even still
@@FriendlyBaron It's amazing what you can do with a proper engine. Same with RDR2. I play World of Warcraft a lot more recently, and people tell me how good the graphics of the current update are, and it's just the style of WoW.... And then I look at other games,... and what they can do...
I think it's funny how people when so fast in the Jewel Store heist that they lost time because of their immense speed
Baron already knows next year's strats. He has 20:20 vision.
we just keep them hidden to dripfeed comment
Woo new strats! I look forward to seeing you improve!
yeah its two separate things really, improving the run's strats but also improving your own play. i could hammer another 2 minutes off the run just by perfecting the driving, and no other changes if i really worked at it
@@FriendlyBaron I would say perfect driving later, or at least somewhat later. I think some of your biggest saves could come from the sections where you get pushed from the cars trying to get in front of you. Granted I don't really know how much time this would actually save you on your runs.
Nice video baron 😊👍
hey thanks :)
Great video as always, hopefully the algorithm will decide you’re worthy again. Fingers crossed.
not yet, but hopefully eventually ITLL SHOW THE VIDEO TO MY OWN SUBS
This music from Gran Turismo 4 ^^
heck yeah (and GT6)
EXACTLY
watching this exactly one year later to see what has changed
Some other speedrunner
@@Dackered Yeah 😂
This is his last video where matto will be featured 😂
As soon as the video started I picked up on that gran turismo 4 music
heck yeah
20 mins and no ads? I love u.
means i cant make as many videos though, its a trade-off
Very interesting video. I find an optimized speedrun fascinating. Playing a game to the limit.
thanks, yeah thats the goal
This is a great video btw Baron
thanks :)
@@FriendlyBaron btw I talked to you on discord my tag is Я люблю единорогов 05 # 0803
Very nice video, I really enjoyed it. Love those updates!
thanks!
*Watching this video while struggling to get passed the loading screen*
i gotta start making 30 minute videos for that
I never play GTA 5 or watch streamers play it, this is the only GTA 5 related channel I watch
hey glad ya like it. i dont watch F1 but theres some YTs who are so passionate about it i like watching their vids lol
The fact that this video length is 20:20 scares me
Like how Day Tripper starts playing as you talk about Chop
😎
This that PS3 Gran Turismo 4 background music. The nostalgia
hell yeah
heck yeah, it was GT6 music too
forgot to enable the bell last time i watched one of your videos, am now officially getting notifs for this quality shit
dingdong :)
you look and sound like a happy cr1tikal

soonish. you can see my progress on wednesday streams if curious
Nice vid as always! Very informative even though I don’t speed run lol
thanks! i dont play Football but still watch the NFL. not saying im an athlete but same concept ya kno
By now someone made it in 5h 57m 20s
Also fun fact gta5 came out in 2013 what?!? I’m I the only one feeling like this game is 3-4 years old max?
Because game was way ahead of it's time.
@@AFT_05G True
Did you see vipers requested strat on paleto score? It is to throw a Molotov as Michael and he won’t be slowed down and have full running ability
yeah. its not actually faster as you have to spend time picking up the mollys. we kind of have a chance to get them now, but shooting as franklin is still faster when done well, and the molotov thing isnt consistent.
Nice vid x)
just wait until the risky one :)
Can we appreciate the granturismo music
Gonna say there’s people that watch it to the end accidentally (passed out watching YT or otherwise letting autoplay take over, like me sometimes)
lol fair enough, but they probably didnt dislike the video at least :)
You right XD I've been on your stream before btw, it was pretty good, I was the guy who was 100%-ing GTA San Andreas while I watched, I came from Hugo_One's host
@1:30 Yes, but you need a perfect run in order to make it count. :)
Reloe be finding every strat now
Reloe's always been great at high level strats, and Dew's been killing it with tiny but useful optimizations.
7:24 isn't this called mr philips

VictorHighBottom nope
i will fire the editor who made the mistake
wait a sec...
