Time Trial #2: Observatory to Mackenzie Airfield

[Smale45]

You cant alter trafic ONLINE on PC, dumbo's. And i said it was HARD and it supposed to be hard cause its a challenge. And again, traffic on consoles and PC when it comes to online is the same and cant be changed, because if you could then it would break the game for others.

[Mach1bud]

It is difficult but not all that crazy hard. I'd say it is actually perfect difficulty.

[statistic]

I did it! that's all. It was not easy, but then I'm not a pro xXsniperXx gamer. Just a dude who likes GTA. I had a beer to celebrate my accomplishment, and now await the next weekly time trial challenge.

[Blasterman4EVER]

It's all about frame of reference.

If robbing your first store in GTAO is a 1 out of 10 on the scale of difficulty, then what are the time trials?

What in-game challenge or mission or mode is more difficult than the time trials? I am not asking this as a rhetorical question.

You've got to keep the difficulty of the challenge in relation to the other challenges in the game.

The time trials are hard. Not impossibly hard, but hard. I'm having a hard time thinking of anything else I've done in GTA V that was harder... even in my quest to get 100%, the only thing I can think off off the top of my head that I found nearly as difficult was getting the space part under the bridge support above the river near Fort Zancudo.

I guess the Criminal Mastermind challenge is probably more difficult. Or beating the Pacific Bank Heist the first time - but that's because of lousy teamwork.

Ugh. This thread is turning into a cock-waving extravaganza in a hurry.

[Smale45]

Ok. Im done with this challenge. I think you can get as good as 1.47, but it would require a sh*t ton of luck as well. Is there a way to check the world record when the event is ended? And i'll post my run along with the fails later xD

[aaronBLUEeyes]

I FINALLY fracking beat it! I had to switch back to going down the ridge line and jump the hills and dirt roads then got on the road to the left and did what I did before the rest of the way.

 

Except I used my Bati again. It was a close shave 2m04.something seconds

Still trying to complete it. Have tried like 80 times with a Bati and a Sanchez. I think I'm focusing too much on wheelieing and it puts me off.

the one where i got 1.51, i practically wheeled the whole track. I wanna upload the clip, but i don't want to reveal the route i took until the event is over, cause it's a bit different from the guy who got 1.52

is there seriously a some kind of bonus for having the world record?

I don't think there is a bonus but I'm not too sure. Did you use a Bati?

yes. I'm uploading my clip, should be live in 30min and i'll post it here.

[VanessaMagick]

The guy who said he allegedly got the world record for the Del Perro trial said that he got $500,000 for it.

I actually have a video on the easiest way to get that spaceship part. Serious just take a look lol.

 

 

As far as difficulty, I have done the CMM Challenge, it was easy. Finding a good team is the hard part. I'd say this time trial is a 7/10 and the first one was a 8/10. Can't think of anything harder, maybe making a Hole in One at the golf course.

[Smale45]

sh*t dude,

[Error2k]

They disappear after a week? Meh

[Mach1bud]

They disappear after a week? Meh

That is the best part imo.

[Smale45]

Here it is bb's. It was hard AF getting this time and it'll hurt even more when someone will beat it, if they haven't already

 

 

 

What settings do you guys use for rendering GTA 5 videos on Sony vegas? Cause god damn mine one looks like garbage

Thanks doc.

[aaronBLUEeyes]

It took me like 2 years but I got a whole in one recently! Wish the editor was out when I did it.

 

I used gameDVR tho

Lucky bastard... I've been playing golf regularly ever since launch and I've never gotten a hole in 1...

 

It's interesting how a hole in 1 is a considerable achievement in real life and likewise a considerable achievement in GTA - whereas a perfect leg in darts is an extremely prestigious and rare occurrence in real life and in GTA it's just the standard.

I'm surprised that the Sanchez is so good here. I thought, even offroad, it couldn't hold a candle to the Akuma or Bati, but here we are, steadily gaining time.

Honestly not suprised...i once was nr 1 in some offroad bike race driving a sanchez against batis akumas and hakuchous....realy suprised me

Okay - I apologise for saying you were altering the traffic. I was just going off what someone said in the previous time trial thread, when they suggested they were going to do so.

Nicely done! I haven't tried taking the ridge from the start, just stuck to the gulley with the stunt jump. Your route across country from the airfield was great too, coming out dead on the junction next to the level crossing.

 

You'd probably get below 1:50 if you used the high camera viewpoint, though

[oleg_aka_djmeg]

that's a dick move if you ask me.

Thanks! And what do you mean exactly by high point camera view? And that ridge is deadly. I have crashed so many times going of it, then falling of the bike and see it fly away like 300meters. Then i have to run to it and drive it back to the time trial blip, because the timer has already expired..

But i think you have to take it to get the best time possible

It was at the time, but he then posted the video anyway.

what route did you take? And did you lean forward or back while reversing? Also, what shoes your character wore?

I wore Nikey Max Air and leaned forward so my heels were pointing up slightly, giving my bike that bit of lift. The route was a straight line as the combination of reverse and Faggio is so rare that it's magic and you can bore directly through the landscape. That landscape was rekt when I finished. Sorry everyone, but I rekt GTA.
