Hendo Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Only played a little bit of the full game, just to check it worked as apparently people were buying the digital version and it wasn't unlocking, or you had to buy it from within the beta version. There's tons to do and happily everything from the demo carries over. I'm not entirely sure how it works but supposedly you can make and share servers on the console versions. There's at least 3 of us on this but so far spatular is king. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimboxy Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Hats hardly a surprise. Should have a chance to spend some time with it this evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spatular Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 I don't have it, just played some of the demo. Do plan on picking it up at some point mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spatular Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Oh sorry, they called it a beta and it was just for the weekend iirc, I don't know if there's a demo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craymen Edge Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 I hadn't realised this was for PC too. I assumed it was just an attempt to try and make the weirdness of Trackmania work on consoles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimboxy Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 I went through a load of races last night. Set some top scores on some tracks, Spatular is hard to beat though. It is a load of fun to play and is opening up more now as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hendo Posted March 27, 2016 Author Share Posted March 27, 2016 Putting some times down in the second load of races for you to demolish, Jim. Though I have blitzed through one of yours, which surprised me because I was ready to give up on even getting silver out of it. It's the one where if you take a jump too fast, you'll end up hitting a roof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimboxy Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 Yeah I found that one quite tough. The last long right hand bend was tricky to judge. I only just squeaked a gold I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duck Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 Think a good few people here have this, so it would be cool to get a ghost league or something going. I was thinking each person picks a track each a week. So that's like 5 tracks. At the end of the week, we add up each track results. 5 points for top, 4 for second and so on to see who did the best and then pick more tracks and repeat. Something like that? Maybe one of you's has a better idea for it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only just squeaked a gold I think.That's actually the only track I have a green medal on. It's above gold - master or something I think.I'm really bad at this game.

Hendo Posted March 28, 2016 Author Share Posted March 28, 2016 Yeah, Trackmaster I think it's called. I can barely get better than silver on most of them. And that first row is meant to be easy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe one of you's has a better idea for it? I'm up for this. We did something similar with Forza 3 a few years ago. We could pick tracks at random. Are they all unlocked for multi?

Hendo Posted March 28, 2016 Author Share Posted March 28, 2016 I'm down for any kind of thing that encourages me to keep playing. I'm gonna set a challenge for myself and anyone else is welcome to join me. By the end of each month (starting end of April) I'm going to try to gold or better all tracks on each row. That's 40 tracks a month, 10 every week, so if I can beat 2 a day I should be laughing. Going at that rate, I'll be done at the end of August but seeing how tough the first row are, I expect I'll either last till the end of the year or just give up and admit defeat. Also, I just joined a server for a bit and joined in on some tracks. I would guess they're user created as you can rate them after each one ends. This is nowhere near the weirdest track you will play but screwed with my head at first as you have to hit the reverse bit at speed to get past it. You can practically see me going, "what the fuck?" as I try getting past it. It's all one lap and it ends super weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimboxy Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 I was trying to work out how to make your own servers the other day but couldn't find the option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hendo Posted March 28, 2016 Author Share Posted March 28, 2016 Online Racing -> Room Browser -> R1 over to My Rooms and then square button to create one. I made one with a few random tracks and made it private with a password of MFGamers but obviously it will only be online when I am in it, I would've thought. I'm not even sure how to share it.

Hendo Posted March 28, 2016 Author Share Posted March 28, 2016 First challenge, first track in the campaign. I will most likely not get any better than this but I'm laying down the gauntlet. You can see on the 2nd proper corner that it should be easy to zoom past me. Edit: I googled Trackmaster and it seems that they are the times set by the devs. When someone beats that time they become the Trackmaster. So if that's true then I became the number 1 in the world for that track, but I think more likely is that I just beat the developer's time.

Jimboxy Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 That's not bad. Just need to tighten up the slides. What time limit are we putting on scores? We could run a similar system to the pinball thread where the time extends if someone gets a new high score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
