My continuing Superhot Impossible Mode saga:

In other modes, after I dodge the truck and rush at it, charging at the back of the truck will usually get the AI to fire into the side of the truck trying to hit me even though the truck is in the freaking way. That closes the distance fast enough that I can dodge his last few bullets and rush him to take his gun and kill him.

But those bullets are too fast in impossible mode, so I instead have to duck into the alcove in the left, grab and toss a bottle at him so I can close the distance grab his gun, and cap him. Of course, since this is one bullet mode, I can't actually use the AR against the 3 pistol guys who appear behind me.

So I have to duck back into the alcove and circle in place to get time to "pass" so they'll close the distance. At the point is all very inelegant, I'm just tossing everything I can at those guys, and as you can see, the first guy I hit with the tossed assault rifle has recovered and has his gun back in hand by the time I toss the bottle I just grabbed at the second guy (lucky for me, his gun goes flying way off, and so he opts to charge me unarmed rather than grab the pistol), but since they're bunched up, he can't get a shot at me and I have time to pick up the last bottle to toss at the third guy.

Then its grab that guys gun as it flies through the air, shoot the pistol guy since he's the most dangerous threat, toss gun at middle guy and start to melee, but since its impossible mode, I'm unable to finish him off before the other guy gets out of stun. So I have to punch that guy to get him to back off so I can get back to finish off the other guy. It helps that the one guy opts to go for the pistol on the ground instead. He's not fast enough though, and I punch him to death.

I'm not sure if jumping over those desks is any faster than just going around, but I do it anyways. This is one of my favorite levels because of the racks and racks of guns. Its like the time ultimate Bullseye and Punisher fought, and they end up in the room with all the tools and weapons.

Again, one shot per gun really isn't a big deal, because the enemies are all on you that you don't have time to wait for you gun to reload anyways, so you'd already be tossing it and grabbing another gun to fire.

Hospital impossible mode:

This is actually my most dreaded level in the game, because of that wide open space covered by an assault rifle and shotgun guy, made harder with the increased bullet speed of impossible mode. Then if you get past that, you have armed enemies coming from three directions.

I run the first part fast and accurately, killing the pistol guy in the room just right that I can grab his gun off the floor and duck behind the cabinet by the window. I toss my empty pistol at AR beforehand in the hopes of stunning him, but no such luck there. But the cabinet protects me from shotgun guy, and I'm at a good angle to pop assault rifle guy.

Of course, what happens next is all sort of bullshit- I toss gun at shotgun guy, it breaks on the wall. I managed to make it to the gun on the chair, try to shoot shotgun guy, and hit the wall. I try to toss it him and hit the fucking wall for the third time in a row. Luckily the assault rifle is right there, so I pick it up and finally kill the guy.

I got extremely lucky here, I do a good job fighting it out, and I go for the shotgun on the floor, not knowing a guy just appeared behind me until his pistol shot sails right by me. But I get to the gun and beat him to the draw. I've found my rhythm though, and finish off the rest of the guys with ease.

Donut impossible mode:

I start off well, until I miss that one assault rifle toss. I turn around hoping there's a gun somewhere, but to no avail. My only hope is to duck behind the corner and hopefully punch a guy once he gets close to turn things around. The tactic works, and I'm able to fight my way out of the corner to beat the level.

Oldboy impossible mode:

Watch on YouTube

Man, it doesn't go smoother than this. Every katana toss hit its mark, even the long toss there at one of the last two guys. I had purposely grabbed and fired only one of the pistols of the three pistol guys appeared, killing the first one with a katana toss, stunning the second guy with a thrown art piece, grabbing his pistol to kill the third guy, tossing it back at second guy to stun him again to give me time to grab the katana to carve him up. Which I then toss into the left assault rifle guy, and then grabbing the pistol off the floor to pop the other AR guy.

Elevator impossible mode:

Watch on YouTube

Actually tried something different this time around. I punch the guys on my left and right, using the right guy's gun to shoot the dude in the middle before he can shoot me. There was prolly something more effective I could've done with the empty pistol, but I just end up tossing it at the right guy and then finishing him off in melee.

By this point the last guy has made a play for one of the guns on the floor, which is convenient, because it makes it easier for me to get it by punching him and grabbing it when it flies in the air, rather than trying to root around the ground for it myself. Now, here's where I do something different than I usually do.

I could shoot him, but the elevator doors are opening, and the shotgun guys are a bigger threat than this guy. So I shoot the right shotgun guy, toss the pistol at elevator guy to stun him so I can rush out of the elevator unaccosted. I grab the dead guys shotgun, and the reflection of a flash on the floor tells me the other shotgun guy fired at me and missed, which is lucky for me.

At this point, its all a matter of blowing shotgun away. The elevator guy managed to get his hand on a pistol though, so I toss my empty shotgun at him to stop him from shooting me long enough to get the other shotgun and pop him.

Ballroom impossible mode:

Watch on YouTube

Its drop, chop, chop, toss sword into AR guy, grab his gun, pop AR guy at the top of the stairs, then charge up it. I toss the AR at katana guy to get his sword, chop him down, then toss it at pistol guy. Grab his pistol from the air, but this is were my perfection ends- I miss the pistol guy across the way, but I do manage to hit him with the pistol toss. So I don't have to worry about eating a bullet from him, all I need to do is punch katana guy, grab his sword and cut him down with it, then toss it into the last guy. At least those katana throws all hit their mark.

Meeting impossible mode:

Watch on YouTube

This starts out the same as in hard mode, toss phone and first guy, grab his pistol and shoot him, then toss pistol at guy inside monitor room. Now with guns only having one shot, I have to remember to save a gun for the shotgun guy in front of the meeting room. So, I punch the second guy, use his pistol to shoot monitor room guy, and then finish the guy in front of me off in melee. That leaves me monitor room guy's gone, conveniently sitting on the shelf.

I pop from around the corner and shoot shotgun guy, toss pistol to stun AR guy on the right, then grab the shotgun and shoot- I was hoping to get both unarmed guys, but I only manage to hit one. I toss the shotgun at pistol guy to get him off my back, then melee the remaining charging guy. Somehow, the pistol guy's pistol flew over the table towards me, which I pick up to shoot AR guy, who had recovered his weapon. Lucky for me he decided to charge around the table instead of trying to shoot me from his normal spot.

Now, since I know a whole bunch of armed guys are coming from down the hall, I don't want to waste any of the guns on the last guy in the room, so I melee him to death. Now I have a shotgun and assault rifle to use on the incoming guards. The shotgun is closer, so I grab it and manage to take take two guys out with one blast. I try to toss the shotgun at the guy in the hall, but it hits the door jam.

No matter, I still get to the assault rifle in time to kill a guy, and with no weapons left in the room (except for a pistol in the back corner, but that's too far to be of use), I charge out into the hall tossing the AR guy at the first guy I see, shooting him with his own weapon. Repeat on the next guy. Unfortunately, when I toss the next gun, I hit the freaking corner of the wall again. But I'm quick enough to grab another shotgun from the floor and blow him away. Now this next shotgun toss hits its mark, and I grab the pistol the guy who I had just blasted drop and take out the last guy.

Okay, I finally completed impossible mode today, so this is the last of these superhot vid posts.

Stairs impossible:

Watch on YouTube

I really would like to complete this level without hotswitching, but haven't figured out how to do that yet. I mean, you have to move immediately, as there's a guy with an AR right above you ready to fire, and keep going until you catch up to shotgun guy ahead of you. Its the standard punch him for his shotgun, but the problem is there's so many guys and little cover. If you shoot him, try and toss your shotgun at pistol guy and take his gun, the other shotgun guy running up the stairs will get you.

You can shoot pistol guy with the shotgun and melee guy who's shotgun you stole to death, the problem is you have to be fast and there's only a little patch of ground where you're protected from both the AR guy at the top of the stairs, and shotgun guy charging from behind. Indeed, in this vid, I got lucky and the spread of pellets managed to just all barely miss me. Now ideally, I woulda hit the shotgun guy with the fire extinguisher I grabbed off the wall, but yet again, it accidentally impacts against the pillar I was just using for cover and ducked out of. Good thing he's close enough for me to melee and grab his shotgun, and that he and shovel guy are close enough to take out with one blast.

At this point, the only active enemy is AR guy at the top of stairs, and he has the high ground, so charging at him would be suicide. Especially since another AR guy is about to appear at the top of the stairs since I just finished killing the first wave of guys. So I have no choice but to hotswitch.

I have to still be fast though, grab the piece of rebar from the wall and toss it at assault rifle guy who appears to stun him and I can get a hold of his gun to finish him off. Now, the remaining guys are coming from below, so I take a drop of faith off the top platform, toss the shotgun at the first guy, so I can get his pistol, shoot him, throw that empty pistol at the next guy, and so forth until they're all dead.

Only thing to say about this vid was I thought I was going to be able to hit all three guys with my shotgun and finally get that trophy. But I only get two with the blast. bbv('This is total BS!')

Station impossible mode:

Watch on YouTube

This plays out pretty much like hard mode, except since I only have one bullet, when I toss my weapon at the assault rifle guy coming out of the door on the left and hotswitch into the other guy, I need to take him out with a melee before grabbing his rifle, because I need that bullet for the guys across the tracks. I pop one, then have to circle in place behind cover to waste time until my hotswitch refreshes and jump into the last guy.

I guess if I had more guts, I'd toss the rifle at the remaining guy to stun him long enough for me to jump the tracks and finish him off. But things went so smoothly, I didn't want to risk it.

Train impossible mode:

Watch on YouTube

I realized if I shot the shotgun between the center and right guys, I could take them both out without having to use any of their own weapons on them after I hotswitch into the left guy. That freed up both the shotgun and AR for me to use against the guys who appear at the other end of the train.

So I quickly grab the AR to take out shotgun guy, toss it, then grab the shotgun and shoot it to take on pistol guy. Then I quickly turn around and toss the shotgun at the guy at the controls of the train. Unfortunately, the shotgun never reaches him, it gets shredded by the incoming rifle fire. But at least it blocked those shots. And since he's still too far away, I have no choice but to hotswitch into him to end the level.

Gate impossible mode:

Watch on YouTube

Since the guns are only one shot, I have to be frugal with my shots. Start off the same way, hotswitch into guy in the booth, grab shotgun, and blow away shotgun guy outside. Toss the shotgun at the pistol guy running through the other door, but since I need his pistol to take out the guy by the truck, I finish him off with a melee since I'm shielded from the rest of the enemies right now.

So now I have one shot with the pistol that I can use to take out truck guy, then toss it at the pistol guy appearing outside the door. It would be tempting to use that discarded shotgun to take him out, but the rushing AR guy is the bigger threat. So I shred him with the shotgun, toss the shotgun to prevent pistol guy from picking up his pistol, and then melee-ing him to save the pistol for one of the AR guys.

Pop off a shot to kill the left guy, and I was hoping to get through this level without hotswitching again, by tossing the empty pistol at the guy on the right in the hopes I can rush him. But I miss, so I have no choice but to jump into him to end the level.

Lobby impossible mode:

Hey, managed to do the final level without having to hotswitch at all. Like in hard mode, I cut down the first guy, toss the sword into the second and grab pistol guy's pistol and quickly pop the guy charging me from the far door on my right. I don't have time to see if the shot hits, I just listen for the shattering sound indicating I got him. Then I go into the side room.

Lucky for me, the assault rifle guy usually there has charged out the other door as I ran in. I give chase through that door, tossing the pistol at the AR guy to my right to make him drop his gun, and then grabbing the AR dropped by the guy I killed with the katana toss to finish him off.

I toss the AR and quickly run over to grab the fresh AR from the guy I just killed, which I use to kill the pistol guy who appears. Toss the rifle, I'm about to pick up pistol guy's pistol, but opt for the shotgun instead. I use it to blow away the assault rifle guy who appears, then toss it at the shotgun guy who appears so I don't have to worry about getting shot while I take care of katana guy.

Punch him, take his katana, chop him down then toss it at the last guy for the win.
