Описание: I finally went sub 37:20!

I used a strat that I saw in a PoC High-Score stream that skips the second meteor so that I could use the Death Machine instead of the Portable Turret and kill the second barrier hive faster (The +4 Upgrade on the DM secretly increases its damage by 36%, and the DM also receives the WPN 20% and 50% damage boosts!). Also I think the .44 might have a slightly faster drill pickup animation than the other pistols, which is why I switched over from the MP443.

This run had really good RNG, (near-perfect hives and only 1 long heli voiceline). The execution was not perfect however. I didn't have enough money to stack ferals before the first barrier hive, so I might have lost a little bit of time having to deal with that on the fly. During the second barrier hive, I bought the Death Machine a second or two too early when trying to activate my ENGR upgrade, causing me to miss the last bit of damage from the infinite ammo Bulldog. I also didn't get the second meteor skip on my first attempt, which cost roughly 5 seconds.

With perfect RNG and perfect execution, I think PoC Solo could potentially go sub 37:10 using this route.
