Time Trial #2: Observatory to Mackenzie Airfield

[Alien Reaper]

 

 

 

 

-snip-

So our friend the Hakuchou Drag God just let me in on a little secret to avoid spinning at the start.

Just don't hold the throttle button all the way down, just tap it lightly. And you take off just fine.

 

Try holding the throttle button just a bit with a keyboard.

 

Yeah I should've figured that. Why not use a controller? Wouldn't that be easier anyway?

 

I drive Motorcycles (and aircrafts) better using KB/M then Controller.

Although, I drive cars (and boats) better with Controller then KB/M.

 

 

 

The problem with controllers (at least on PC which is the platform that I use) is that the left analog stick sensitivity is never perfect for all types of vehicles. For aircraft you would like to reduce the sensitivity to the minimum, but with cars, especially very oversteery ones like muscle cars, you need to make gentle adjustments with the stick while drifting, which will not be registered if you have minimal sensitivity settings, forcing you to make more aggressive inputs, and then the car snaps away from you.

"Hey, LJT here..."

Deep s**t.

How difficult is this in the Desert Raid?

[alkaline_]

I've tried it with my Infernus Classic multiple times but the top speed wasn't sufficient enough for the road section to make the run in time. I just couldn't make it.

Meh, so I've grabbed my Nero Custom, and it was quite easy with that car. Much kudos to Aleks440 and our fluffy penguin btw. (:

[nido997]

okey .. so I decided to make another run and take another path (insted of driving to Trevor´s Hangar and crossing all these "bouncy dunes") , and managed to get a a better time...but the finish line is soo tricky with the H Drag as you can´t break that fence with it for some reason ( did fall off the bike at my first attempt , so I had to slow down and take that small corner )

 

[aFinn]

Oh, I broke the fence on my run. I also got thrown out of bike when I did it so I guess it's angle/speed combination that sometimes does that?

 

 

[A.Nothingman]

The Contender lines gave me some help with this one. GG guys.
(Sorry about the quality of the vid. Had to bright it up a bit cause the train took the liberty to trash the few lights I had left and I was too lazy to get a new truck)

Huh? Looks great, srsly! Much contrast and stuff. It's not bright at all. Nice run. (:

[CaliMeatWagon]

Thank you peoples for posting your videos. Because of this I was able to come up with a line that worked for me and the truck based on your peoples lines.

 

Here is the video. Hope you peoples enjoy!

Did anyone ask for a rocket volitc to complete this one? No? Too bad. Here is what I did about an hour ago using the 3x recharge boost technique.

 

[JR_Death]

Put the oranges to work

 

[No Homing]

An unexpected improvement. I'm starting to think rain is a little overrated.

Here we go with the 2nd of 22 with the Vigilante

That bit over the water though

The Bounce Lottery

[Luigi22]

This one was quite hard with Vigilante but still manageable.

[Mach1bud]

The Vilgilante makes these ridiculously easy. Lol at the fact that you can have multiple bad crashes and still beat par.

 

I remember the days when if you brushed a bush the wrong way, gotta respawn lol

[Demolisher44]

 

Hey look I beat my time from earlier.

[Giantsgiants]

Here we go with the 2nd of 22 with the Vigilante

 

2:00 with the Vigilante using your route. Such a simple route once you nail the jump. My first time I've gotten under par in any of these time trials.

[Action_Andy]

This is one of my favourite TTs. Not to difficult and fun with a quick bike. Many jumps and you can include two monster stunts into the run :-)

[Mach1bud]

I'm gonna have to try this again using the lake jump.

I've never beaten a par time. Ever. But I refuse to use my Vigilante.

 

If I needed the money maybe I would, but if I needed money I probably wouldn't have a vigilante to begin with lol.

Doing these for money usually isn't the best paying option in the game, it's more the satisfaction of beating par time

 

Edit: was probably more satisfying when vigilante wasn't out and also when Re-7b had insane top speed

That's a very good run.

Meh at this point for myself, I have beaten all of the Time Trials with various cars so I just want to make my money and get it over with usually.

[Forza Harrd]

Myself I just want to turn ONE CLEAN LAP on anything (not rocket powered). I know other players can do it, so I think I should be able to do it too. Hak Drag, Bati, Gargoyle w/Web Wheels, Vagner, Nero Custom, something. I spent so much money on fast cars and bikes and I race so much I SHOULD BE ABLE TO DO THIS!!!! *rage quit after crashing my Tyrus in the river 2 times in a row*

[Demolisher44]

I hope the times list gets updated soon, I beat Oleg's time in the second time trial for cars
