anyone know what that playtime means?

Rival11

Yeah, guess it just felt shorter - I don't count DLC as total play time - just the main game.

The Questyen

I don't either but his question was "how long is the main game and the story dlc".

OldBoy

anyone at all? i even searched to no avail...

You're experiencing missing time from being abducted and anal probed by aliens, obviously.

Or: You didn't quit out of the game and left it running in the background of your console when you were finished playing for the day?

OldBoy

i always save, end and go to home screen when finished, that is what i don't understand. no way it's been 104 hours. i would say not even 8-10...

Rival11

Thanks for being very thorough I will probably call you for your services later on - lol just taking a harmless small jab at ya as the very few times you have replied to me, seems like you always have a stick up your ass.

Music

pot/kettle?

Rival11

Really? I do that? I'm being serious as I don't know...give me an example maybe?

The Questyen

The OP asked a specific question (about main game and DLC) which you answered incorrectly (only about main game). When I mentioned you answered it incorrectly you then said you don't consider the DLC in the game length. I agreed with you but said that's not what info the OP asked for. Not sure what about that makes me have a stick up my ass.

Music

I don't know if you do that a lot... just that post back to him was kind of the same stick up the ass kinda attitude you called him out on... kinda funny

Rival11

Oh ha, Na - I barely ever talk to that dude and it just seems that way, it's all good, I'm sure he's cool.

Music

Well... let's not rush to a conclusion on that...

OldBoy

Guys...can we please focus on me and my gaming confusions?

Enough of all this he said/she said stuff.

Please focus. This is about me...

You just have to put effort into your search:

Read everything at the link above - some highlights:

"The timer can't be accurate, its says around 14 but even if I were to calculate at least 3 hours a day at the very least over nine days ( although ive done well over that) that'd be 27 hours!



I did my speedrun in one sitting from about 8 am to about 1130 and the timer said 3'18 so I'd say it's pretty accurate

I think what's happening is that the game records either a single session or between saves. For example, if I've saved the game then played for another hour, died then quit, maybe the time won't register from the last save to dying and quitting.

I'm not doubting you at all, but seriously, I've put many more hours than the clock says, more than double. I mean six of those hours were spent when I played it for the very first time. And I know I spent all evening on the tanker level yesterday, like 4 hours.

Well done on the speed run though. I hope I get a good time when I attempt it cos I need all the help in the world for madhouse."

----------------------------

"If you die and hit retry, the timer continues to run, but if you close and reload a previous save point, you just load in from that save's time stamp.

A speed run is null and void if they load a previous save for that reason."
