You go up a long slope and then jump onto a steeper slope that leads into the rest of the track. If you nail that bit it basically sets you up for the rest of the track. If you miss it, you lose all your momentum completely. And it's quite tricky to nail it. I've really enjoyed these speedruns. You find new ways to do tracks fast every time. The slope, you need to let your front wheel come up and as you leave it, lean everything forward and you should hit it. It's frustrating, I know what I need to do to absolutely smash that track but I mess it up so easily Saying that, my time was 800th in the world or something so that's cool.

Stevo985 Posted May 25, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted May 25, 2016 Oh yeah I know how to do it, it's just much easier said than done! But that part is the key for me. The bits proceeding that I can do comfortably, and the bits after comfortably. It's just that part is the killer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StefanAVFC Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 I'm actually in love with this game again. I like how I can watch replays of 3 people with 3 similar times who did the track 3 different ways. I genuinely think, value for money wise, it's one of the best games ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted May 25, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted May 25, 2016 I didn't even know you could watch replays! So if I want to see your Mind the Gap time, I can watch a replay of it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll bring up the detailed leaderboard, then 'watch replay'. Then you can also race against anybody's ghost as well by pressing square on their name.

villarule123 Posted May 25, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted May 25, 2016 The times are so hard to beat. I've played through the game aiming to gold and no fault the tracks, without caring about records etc. Need to start from the beginning again I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted May 25, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted May 25, 2016 The advantage I had when I played through was that everyone had already played, so I just tried to beat everyone on every track, so got the vast majority of best times (which wasn't that hard at the time because most people had taken your approach, Jono) Stefan then did the same so set a load himself. And now the times are really hard to beat. You very much drew the short straw by setting the initial bar, Jono. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villarule123 Posted May 25, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted May 25, 2016 Yeah, plus I was really, really bad back then. Finishing a hard with no faults was an achievement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted May 26, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted May 26, 2016 (edited) Went on a rampage. Broke all the best times on the Hard Tracks Edit: Actually not all of them. It was just all of them in one chapter. Updated the sheet Edited May 26, 2016 by Stevo985 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted May 27, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted May 27, 2016 At one point I had a time that was 4 THOUSANDTHS of a second slower than yours on Cold Storage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villarule123 Posted May 31, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted May 31, 2016 We on this week at some point? You two should really get Trackmania, it's the same concept with setting times, there's about 190 official tracks and it's just as challenging, if not harder.
