10 Video Game Speed-Run Achievements Only Hardcore Players Will Unlock

The Achievement: "Get the top spot on the Gauntlet scoreboard."

And finally, we conclude not with a speedrun of a full campaign, but a single level - Titanfall 2's infamously maddening Pilot's Gauntlet, an assault course at the start of the game which tests players' traversal and combat skills.

To pop this trophy, players have to get a time of better than 33.65 seconds in order to steal third place from "S. Fukuda."

This requires players to have a masterful understanding of the game's locomotion mechanics, chaining together balletic movements for maximum efficiency, all while gunning down 15 enemies.

Any enemy missed will automatically cause a two-second penalty, ensuring this is one of the most aggravatingly challenging speedrun challenges out there.

Unsurprisingly, just 1.5% of players have ever attained it despite it being theoretically achievable in barely a half-minute of play, serving as the ultimate testament to its hair-pulling frustration factor.
