Posted by: mvco Oct 30 2007, 05:21 AM

Posted by: 08TTGSL Oct 30 2007, 09:21 AM
WHAT!! you serious? i thought they only had MT3? oh well thats too far for me anyways.

Posted by: 2prvdaBest Oct 30 2007, 06:43 PM

HAHA! Iori got to meet you. Top player in Acme, we shall own the noobs but we both lost to the EVO IX on Tsukuba OB...lol wtf. Don't know if you'll ever read this again though.

Posted by: 08TTGSL Jan 5 2008, 12:33 AM
LMAO OMG i completely forgot about this thread, and this forum....but yea update tho this thread is that i spoke to 3 managers at Gameworks, and they MIGHT be getting IDAS4 sometime in 08. but yea as of now im not in the capacity to be hitting the arcades for some ID action. if you guys want to plan a meet send me a message on aim because all my forums that im a member of is currently being ignored due to the fact that im in college n got alot to do. so if you guys want to plan a meet hit me up on aim.

Posted by: 08TTGSL Apr 6 2008, 07:52 PM
ATTENTION SEATTLE PLAYERS!! gameworks finally has ID4!! 20 points for non vip card holders and 18 points for VIP CARD HOLDERS!! new card issue/renewal is 3 credits/swipes.

Posted by: MclarenF1 Apr 6 2008, 09:34 PM

Posted by: 08TTGSL Apr 7 2008, 08:47 PM

yea seems u noticed the problem too lol....
The car is somehow slower in GW, I guess it is the gas pedal issue.....
I was stuck at 3'06" (tsukuba OB) at GW. But I did 3'02" at acme, first try and with crashes..... laugh.gif

Posted by: 08TTGSL Apr 16 2008, 10:06 AM
wtf....so its not me then? lol cuz i did a 3:04 pass on tsukuba inbound on the first pass n i was racing the same way i was racing in gameworks. arghhh they hella need to recalibrate the machines.

Lol this thread still alive a bit. So Gameworks has ID4 now, I see.
Anyways I went to Acme & Narrows when I was active.
Only good dude at Acme back in the day was IoriChaos & only FT guy.

So your the best in Narrows? Last time I played was during summer. I'm probably sheety now.
Only daily people I saw there were a bunch of white dudes. I remember a red & yellow AP1.

By the way, any 1.5 machines found yet?

Posted by: mvco May 1 2008, 05:14 AM
1.5 version should be at Narrows and Acme fairly soon.

Posted by: Sechkie May 2 2008, 07:05 PM
well i call myself the best at narrows, but i merely have the best times for most of the maps. My friend has the best akina dhd time though, although I usually win the battles. He drives a trueno so he cheats with the course car =D
man i dont want 1.5 cuz im gona hella suck !! AHH!!

I'm looking forward to 1.5 since everyone else will suck & that is when I play again. smile.gif

Posted by: 08TTGSL May 3 2008, 10:37 AM
gameworks will probably take a while b4 they get 1.5

Posted by: Sechkie May 4 2008, 03:35 PM
WEEZY: do you happen to have any ta's at narrows? cause i looked but didnt see anything with your name on it i believe but then i could've just missed it.
Well there are actually a few ft players out here its just that most of them arent that good.

I don't think I did TA so probably not. If I did it is in Tsukuba or Iro just so I can feel how the physics work before doing Legends.

What is your card name? Best times was by 2FAST last I checked.

EDIT - touge, how does the gameworks point system work? never been there before. better to play there or at a arcade for best value.

Posted by: Sechkie May 11 2008, 05:59 PM
i dont think there is a 2fast on id4
there is a 2fast on the id3 machine and there is a 2sick on the id4 machine
my name is Alex and I have the top times or one of the top times on
iro dhd, tsukuba inbound and outbound, akagi dhd, myogi dhd, and akina dhd

Posted by: 08TTGSL May 11 2008, 07:32 PM

Posted by: Sechkie May 11 2008, 09:56 PM

lol touge is right, Acme is closer. It's across street from Southcenter Mall which is much closer than Seattle.
I live at NE Tacoma & go to Stadium.
Going to Acme or Narrows pretty much take the same time for me but Acme a bit longer.

What school?

Posted by: Sechkie May 14 2008, 10:30 PM
well maybe but i dont know where acme is =D

Posted by: mvco May 15 2008, 05:20 AM
Updated version 1.5 should be here soon for Narrows and Acme. I hope this is a good thing.
If anyone has problems with the machines at Narrows, or Acme, please post them here. We like to keep our machines working the best they can. I check here at least every other day. Especially at Acme, please phone us yourself from your cell phones if a game is completely down. the people at Acme may not be too quick to call us for repair. Thx

Posted by: 08TTGSL May 15 2008, 10:05 AM
MVCO and who might you be? do you work for a company that repairs them?

Sounds like a arcade mechanic or employee at Acme? Well leave us your phone number...we don't even know.

I have only minor problems to note. Like the left machine at Acme...the seat doesn't stay locked when I move it up max.
Either Acme or Narrows...one of the machine brake pedal feels loose.
It's been awhile. unsure.gif

Posted by: mvco May 16 2008, 05:04 AM
I own the arcades at both places. Our phone number is posted on every machine on a black and silver sticker. we are trying our best to keep arcades alive in Washington.

Posted by: 08TTGSL May 16 2008, 09:17 PM
OMG finally an arcade owner who actually CARES about its players!! can you host a tournament some time? lol

Posted by: Sechkie May 16 2008, 10:27 PM
a tournament would be nice =D
but hey i met you sometime mvco
at narrows i believe.
ummm you were there and i was trying to buy a card but the thing errored
and then i did it on the other side and it errored again
I dont know if it was you, but yeah the person was supposed to be the owner of the arcade i believe.
wonder if you remember me >.< im a short asian kid haha
with that story

Posted by: mvco May 17 2008, 05:38 AM
Yes, I do remember you.

I am open to tournament ideas. Especially at Narrows since it is near our warehouse. If someone wants to put one together, hit me with your proposal. We ask that all entry fees get returned to the players through the prize pool. Also that you can conduct the tournament in a professional manner on your own. we supply use the of the machine and any needed site logistics.

Posted by: Sechkie May 17 2008, 12:52 PM
okay narrows is fine with me =D
hehe
but yeah so i guess we will try to organize a tournament i suppose if weezy and tougue support this.
Hmmm so depending on wh en 1.5 comes in, we should use v1.2 as the platform. but if 1.5 comes in we should wait a couple weeks atleast so that players can get adjusted to the new physics and settings.
We do have to figure out how we are going to work out brackets, rules, cost, prizes.

BTW mvco, at the Narrows id4 machine, the left cabinet seems to have a slightly crooked steering wheel. I think that you have to hold it at a slight angle for the car t go straight.
But then again I havent playecd in a week or two so it might be different now.
Thanks

Is there enough people to make a decent tourny?
Don't have much to offer...I don't play enough to be competitive & have no money...basically just be there & help out.

Totally play right after receiving 1.5; EVERYONES NOOB! shifty2.gif

Posted by: Sechkie May 17 2008, 07:11 PM
ehhh depends on when the version comes out >.<
and ummmm how does seeding work in other tournaments? random??
or is it like seeding based on ranking. you know like maybe best times vs worst times? Winning percentage in battles? something like that >.<

Posted by: 08TTGSL May 18 2008, 08:48 PM
is there parking at narrows? and is it also safe? because i dont wanna drive all the way there just to get jacked by a bunch of no good ricers.

Posted by: Sechkie May 18 2008, 09:06 PM
uhh there is a large lot at narrows
and ive never had any trouble at narrows with parking. what car do you drive?
I doubt ull get jacked because at nighttime there are always cops standing infront fo the narrows entrance

Posted by: 08TTGSL May 18 2008, 09:53 PM
just making sure. do you know what exit number it is from I5 south? either that or the address since i can gps the directions from my phone.

Yea there's plenty of parking as there's a movie theater next to it & fast food restaurants.

Oh and I'm guessing you got jacked by no good ricers before? rofl.

Posted by: mvco May 19 2008, 05:08 AM

Posted by: Sechkie May 19 2008, 04:28 PM
oh nice jdm integra =D
that spretty nice
too bad that like too many people are getting that nowadays so it snot that rare anymore >.<

and thanks mvco =D
any approximate date on v1.5 installation?

Touge, I'm assuming you had the highest possible security for the DC2? You know that thing is a theft magnet & it's Seattle.

I don't really see a increase of Type R in WA. There like the best bang for the buck so it's a popular choice.

Posted by: Sechkie May 19 2008, 11:05 PM
welll im talkinga bout getting the actual jdm front end and stuff to try to make it a dc2 wannabe. u know??

Posted by: mvco May 20 2008, 05:10 AM
We do not work on the Gameworks machines. Sega says our 1.5 updates should ship in the next week or two.

Posted by: 08TTGSL May 20 2008, 10:19 AM
@ MVCO: oh ok.

@ WEEZY: yeah i had the highest possible alarm. i had compustar system and a viper system on it also had lowjack.

Posted by: Weezy May 21 2008, 07:47 PM
Lol DC2 wannabes...people driving Hondas can't always afford the real deal so it's part by part hehe.

Ahhh 1.5 is coming.

Damn that is indeed high security...those car thieves really know how to handle. blink.gif

I might head up Gamework this weekend, what is the best day & time for you touge?
Was it Sunday @ 6? That's a little late.

EDIT:

I'm heading up Gamework on Sunday. Best time?

Any platform preference (FF, FR, AWD)? The car should be good on other maps that the AP1 is decent/horrible on, right? Any gear preference (5/6spd)?

Posted by: Sechkie May 24 2008, 12:07 AM

Lol I just talked to Touge...dude was playing Initial D at Gameworks until he got kicked out when it closed at 1am. He almost FT his AP1, like two more steps. He also wants some new people to come & battle...you should really go. happy.gif

Hmm...how about Sileighty or 180SX?

Posted by: 08TTGSL May 24 2008, 10:15 AM
weezy we should battle lol.

EDIT: i didnt get kicked out lol they asked me nicely to leave at closing lmao!

Posted by: Jerry Liu May 24 2008, 12:15 PM
I will be at Gameworks sunday. If you see a buncha kids constantly swiping on the machines, I will be one of them.

Posted by: Weezy May 24 2008, 12:30 PM
I'm sure you got kicked out...lulz rolleyes.gif

How many ID machine does Gamework have?

Posted by: Sechkie May 24 2008, 01:42 PM
umm those cars are probably pretty good its just that I dont know yet i still have to decide =D
maybe ill just stick with the sti, ap1, and trueno lineup i have.

Also, gameworks will go down in value if there is more people there, so if you want to battle and stuff probably head over to acme or narrows haha.

Jerry Liu: what do u mean by the slow cabinet th en? If I remember correctly you talked about the slow machine when complaining about the speed of the fd. Where is that??


Posted by: Jerry Liu May 24 2008, 02:12 PM
I do it ALL the time, no worries. I turn 180 minutes of gameplay into 180 games, which turns into over 6 hours for only $15. Gameworks only has 2 machines.
The slow cabinets are at Gameworks. Play it and you can feel it. Though I hate the machines at Gameworks because of this, I don't want to go all the way down to Acme Bowl just to play it when we have one closer in Downtown. Although I must admit, I DO get frustrated when I see +1 Gameworks everytime and -1-2 at Acme Bowl after hitting that first checkpoint. The only reason I go down to Acme Bowl is to play Maximum Tune 3, that is, until Gameworks gets it since we only got Maximum Tune 2. So while I'm down there, I might as well play Initial D 4 as well.

Posted by: DK_2 May 24 2008, 02:43 PM
what do you guys mean by slow machines? =/

Posted by: Jerry Liu May 24 2008, 02:45 PM
There's something wrong with the sensitivity with the pedals at one of our arcades, so when you step on it, the cars typically go slower than other arcades.

Posted by: DK_2 May 24 2008, 03:05 PM
wow that's faking wack.
my friend here in SoCal had this problem. being the only ID4 around he was practically forced to quiting. sleep.gif

lol 180min into 180 games?!
So both of the machine there has that slow pedal?
What do you mean by +1 Gameowrk & -1/2 Acme?

Alex, that lineup is similar to mine. 2 top tier & a battle. Go for it.



Posted by: Jerry Liu May 24 2008, 09:17 PM
Yes, both machines at Gameworks got the slow pedals. Gameworks' card system uses credits as well as time. So the card has 180 minutes = 180 credits in the machine. 1 swipe per minute = 1 credit. Not many people are aware of this system, so they just swipe freely however they want and make it last the 3 hours it's suppose to as opposed to us making it last for over 6 hours. It's a bit risky though because if we get caught, we would get kicked out and likely to get banned.
The +1 and -1-2 is when you hit the checkpoint and it tells you how far off you are from the record, you know?

lmao jerry your logic is in a way fawked up.....180mins yes but after 1 swipe you gotta wait 60seconds before you can resqipe your card. so in a sense you cant get 180plays from a 180min timecard.........geez and i thought you were a lil bit smarter than this......also i was doing this when erica the manager and patrick were around and they saw me doing this and they didnt care. they are more linient towards that now.


so jus to recap 180mins =/= 180 credits.

Posted by: Weezy May 25 2008, 09:32 PM
Jerry you noob...there's no slow pedal after racing on the machine. Also everyone there is noob except Dion...you all powerlvling, boring the shit out of me. Even with FT you guys stand no chance outside gameworks lulz.
Your WMMT times are good though.

Dion...can't wait to see your new "revised" AP1 blink.gif

Alex...you missed out today of some boring ass shit noobs powerlvling.
Wished you came hah. Damn your 2:53 Tsukuba OB...can't even touch it with my 2:58.


Posted by: 08TTGSL May 25 2008, 10:04 PM
lol revised is not the word i was gonna use............PLASTIC SURGERY!! lol

EDIT: oh and weasly it was nice meeting you bro....now you know what i have to go through everytime i go play lol

Posted by: Jerry Liu May 25 2008, 10:22 PM
Dude, you only did ONE race after standing there for what, three hours just watching us??? And it was just a Legend Of The Street race... Time Attack there and you can feel/see the difference by the first checkpoint.
Lol, where did you see my Maximum Tune times at?
What else were you expecting? We were all too busy working on our cars to give a damn about anything else.
Don't suck up to Dion, please... You know all those Chinese guys I was with at Gameworks? Yeah, THEY'RE ALL better than Dion...
2'53, huh? I'm pretty sure the record at Gameworks is somewhere around there that's WITH the slow pedals... Imagine if they did it OUTSIDE Gameworks... I was able to shave 8 seconds off my time in my first try at Acme Bowl... I'm sure you can let your imagination take over from there.

Posted by: 08TTGSL May 25 2008, 10:28 PM
if im not mistaken the record for tsukuba at GW is 2:55 to 2:58 im no so sure so there is a considerable amount of margin.

EDIT: not that those chinese guys got nothing better to do with their lives than jus to play ID4 so yeah they are better than me i will admit that but not all people are like them that have no lives. some of us work and go to school, so gaming is not in our top priorities.

Posted by: Jerry Liu May 25 2008, 10:31 PM
It's no more than 2'55, if my memory serves me correct. Also, Michael Chan and the boaters were TAing a lil bit after you left, so I'm pretty sure it's faster than that by now.
Yes, but he just said that we were all noobs except you, meaning he's saying that you're better than all of us, including those Chinese guys.

Posted by: 08TTGSL May 25 2008, 10:36 PM
like i said some people got too much time in their hands to kill. i mean it was hella nice out in seattle today and you guys were inside playing video games like a bunch of queer. and lets not forget bro he wasnt sucking up to me. what he was referring to was YOUR homies hogging up the left side even tho they saw that some one else was waiting to get a turn. its people like you guys that take away the fun of racing games. and plus i got a call from him earlier today saying you guys were hogging up the whole machines so thats why he didnt get a chance to get a turn and he had to wait 3 hours jus to play.

EDIT: lmao and i understand why he called you guys noobs perfectly. all you guys do is hog up the machines and power-level your cars. and to make things worse bro you guys dont care that other people not just you guys are waiting to get on the machine. so its common courtesy to just use one card as a place holder and not use 14 cards to block up the whole machine. its people like you that get things ruined for others. i mean the management are already getting complaints from other people about you guys taking it up and not letting people on. its like maxtune 2 all over again. remember that? i hope so because you guys were the ones that did that the MOST.

Posted by: Jerry Liu May 25 2008, 10:42 PM
Didn't he see? If he really wanted to play, all he had to do was put his card up like the rest of us. If I remember correctly, KERVIN said he asked him if he wanted to play and he just said no, so what else were we suppose to do? Force him to play? It was just the LEFT side that they put the whole buncha cards up at, and even then, if he had put his card up there, we STILL would've let him go during his turn. We've had other people come too, and you know what, when we see them watching us, we ASK them if they wanna play, just like what we did to Weezy. If they say yes, then we let them on, if they say no, then so be it.
So it was a nice day today and we were inside playing video games like a buncha queers... So, you're basically saying all the other people at Gameworks were "inside playing video games like a buncha queers" when it was a nice day as well. Yeah, great logic of thinking there. Just to let you know, I was OUT with my mom for about 6 hours before I arrived at Gameworks to play.

Posted by: 08TTGSL May 25 2008, 10:46 PM
lmao well i wouldnt know that cuz most of the time all you guys do is hang around there and acme playing games for 5+ hours straight. i mean for me its natural that i think like that when it comes to those things. so yeah my logic aint messed up. and for the record i was referring to you and your crew not ALL the people in gameworks. i mean day in and day out ive seen din and his girl for 3 DAYS STRAIGHT! in gameworks spending about an estimated 3 hours or more. in there. so ya thats jus my 2 cents. *rant mode ended*

EDIT: and instead of arguing on here jerry you got my number if u wanna act like a lil kid and argue on here then be my guest.

Posted by: Jerry Liu May 25 2008, 10:53 PM
Let's talk on AIM. Oh, and I wasn't arguing, I was correcting you. Sorry, but I just had to give my .02 as well.
One last thing, I DON'T spend all my time at Gameworks. I don't know about the rest of them, but I actually HAVE school to worry about more than video games and the only reason why we were there for the past couple weeks was because of the 3 hour time card deal for $15 Sunday-Wednesday ending at the end of the month. Other than that, I only go there around once a week, at most.

Posted by: BNR34NISMO May 26 2008, 12:04 AM
just to let you guys know, setting a record at gameworks isnt as easy as acme cuz gameworks machines are f**ked up. i got a 2 49 on lake akina in acme and hit 205 top speed while at gameworks i can only get 2 55 and get 193 top speed. its the connection, somethings probaly wrong with the wires or routers. and to any seattle ppl calling us noobs. ill admit i am pretty noob at ID4. but i know nobody on here can beat me at wmmt3 except EDD!E thats it. so i bet that if the boaters like michael and them went to acme, theyll shave 5-10 sec off their records like i did too. its just the router/connection there is better than gameworks therefore the TA times are better. so if anybody is callin michael and them noobs, come to gameworks, well pay for your games, and i 99% guarantee you can not beat them at ID4, cuz up here the machines are slower so its harder to hit good TA times. and the best record at gameworks for tsukuba is like 2 53 XXX and i bet if that guy went to acme it would be like 2 49 or less.

BTW: to ALL tacoma players, have you guys seen a white evo 6 named C.S.R. or silver or white evo 8 named vic** (or something close to that) in wmmt3? Please PM me if youve seen him.

Posted by: Jerry Liu May 26 2008, 12:24 AM
I've beaten you at Maximum Tune before a couple times.

Posted by: BNR34NISMO May 26 2008, 12:36 AM
that was when i came back from a 2 month break. i was talking about dion or that weezy guy. i guarantee they would lose at wmmt3. and how many times to i gotta say this, TA at gameworks is hareder then ACME. so if you get a record at acme good for u, bet you cant bet ur acme record at gameworks. and what jerry said was true, kervin did ask that guy if he wanted to play and the guy said no and shook his head. seriously, he couldnt even beak takumi whle ALL the boaters could beat them. shit michael beat the game 10+ times. while i was never into ID3/4 i just play it to kill time when im waitin for wmmt2/3.

Posted by: Jerry Liu May 26 2008, 01:41 AM
I'll race em at Maximum Tune...
Weezy, if you really think we're all noobs, why don't you come back down and battle those guys? I'm sure they'll be more than happy to bite your head off. Kervin, Eddie, Ace, <Sky>, that dude with the whole buncha cards and his girlfriend, many others. ANY of those Chinese boaters... Oh, and DON'T lie saying we were hogging up the machine. You know DAMN WELL Kervin asked you if you wanted to play and you said no. Talking about all we were doing were power-leveling and you wanted to battle. All you had to do was put your card up at the top like the rest of and when it's your turn, accept on and I'm pretty sure any one of those guys would be more than happy to challenge you. But did you do that? No, you were just standing around for three hours watching us.

Posted by: BNR34NISMO May 26 2008, 03:05 AM
im 99% sure theyll lose and the 1% is if they get lucky. and i know they wont get close to us in wmmt2/3, only person that could beat us is probaly chester, if he still lives down at tacoma. i bet if chester didnt go back to HK, he would own all the WMMT3 machines in tacoma. shit he probaly already owns everyone in TA on the machines down there lol

Posted by: Sechkie May 26 2008, 09:40 AM
hey i suck at wmmt3 =D
so i cant say anything on there lol haha so ill stay out of that.
and ummm dont talk shit about my 2:53 tsukuba time yet yo, even if the acceleration is f'd up the ping should still be the same probably??? Maybe im wrong though so yeah >.<
but hey yeah I hate tsukuka outbound (my 2:53 is back when i was like 7/7/2/0/0 or something.) so dont talk about it cuz its such a gay battle map with boost off. Akina DHD is where its at

btw bnr is ur car ft?
and im assuming that u drive the 34 then??
and hop up down to tacoma or maybe even acme bowl and ill battle ^^
i dont battle at gameworks waste of money >.<

Posted by: Jerry Liu May 26 2008, 09:50 AM
Lol, we weren't talking shit about your 2'53. It's just... that Weezy dude was talking shit about US. What in the world is a ping?
PS: My favorite course is Akagi... (:

Posted by: Sechkie May 26 2008, 09:57 AM
to drive tsukuba outbound u need to overrev teh car in the 4th or 5th gear
man im giving away tips now =[

Posted by: Jerry Liu May 26 2008, 10:05 AM
Lol, no worries, we all know that already. Lol, although the ping and I'm guessing the top speed is probably the same, the car just doesn't accelerate the way it would at other arcades, so there would be a huge difference in time when you Time Attack and results when you do Legend Of The Streets. By the way, I'm one of the few in Seattle that has at least one fully-tuned car... (My FD)

Posted by: Sechkie May 26 2008, 10:16 AM
lol not too long ago it was the DAMN the FD IS SOOO SLOW!! haha
yeah ummmm welll there really isnt all that much accelerating in tsukuba outbound. a lot of it is just maintaining top speed so yeah >.<
althogh it would make a difference, the difference should be lesser than in other maps

Posted by: Jerry Liu May 26 2008, 10:20 AM
Yeah, I take back what I said about the FD being slow. Turns out it was just the machine. It was still a pretty big chunk of a difference. I shaved 5 seconds off my Tsukuba record on my first try.

Posted by: Sechkie May 26 2008, 10:24 AM
oh cooo lol
but i find this flame war kinda funny >.<
all that has to happen is battle outside of gameworks and then ppl cant really talk anymore >.<
im thinking of going to gameworks to ft my cars lol POWER LEVEL!!! lol
hahaha
its the best thing about gameworks.

Posted by: 08TTGSL May 26 2008, 10:28 AM
alex if you need the cupons for the timecard hit me up lol i got hella at home and some at work. they only good till saturday

Posted by: Weezy May 26 2008, 10:28 AM
You guys would of let me use your credits? I assumed you people wouldn't so I said no to that older asian guy. It was my first time at Gameworks...don't know how the cards work so I didn't buy one until Dion came.

I only play Initial D a lot during summer with off and on games once in awhile. I race against Ace in Acme when we both had only few internal upgrades. If he's been playing still, he can beat me.

You have a FT FD yet by looking at your card...you haven't even beaten first round of LOTS....

Someone did ask me if I wanted to play & I neglected for the reason above but I saw at least two couples behind you guys looking & walking away & back to check when you guys will be done but yall just hogging on the machines. Obviously they don't play regularly & didn't have a card to place up. Besides if I were them I wouldn't ask a group of Asian people talking in Chinese with 10+ cards up top anyway.

So you guys have any legit upgraded cars? At least I payed the real deal, play the game without force quitting (this shit is turned off at first lol..), & have fun.

Posted by: Jerry Liu May 26 2008, 10:34 AM
Well, Weezy started it and you can see why we would flame him back after reading our posts. The thing is, we don't really wanna go anywhere else but Gameworks because it's just so damn far away and Gameworks is the closest arcade we got that's got Initial D 4 (Still waiting on Maximum Tune 3). The furthest we're willing to go is Acme Bowl and even then, they still are reluctant on going all the way down there just to play when we already have one in Downtown Seattle, although our pedals are messed up.
Go to Gameworks on Thursday after 9. They sell 7 hour time cards for $10! That's 420 games! Enough to fully-tune 2 cars! Just buy it on Thursday and use it on Saturday because the time cards are 7 hours and Gameworks doesn't sell them till 9 and they close at 1. So that's only 4 hours and you lose that 3 the time card was made for. What you do is go at opening (10 AM) and just continue swiping all 420 minutes from the card into the machine, so it would last ALOT more than 7 hours. I'm PRETTY sure it's gonna last you till the closing time (1 AM). So, you basically turn that supposed 7 hours from the card into 15 hours of gameplay.

Weezy: I don't even do Legend Of The Street... You were watching me for 3 hours, you should be able to see by then that I only Time Attack. Those couples were just watching us and it didn't even seem like they really wanted to play, just more interested in watching. You not having a card and not being able to play isn't our problem. The point was you said that we were hogging the machines and we wouldn't let you play when we asked you if you wanted to.

Posted by: Weezy May 26 2008, 10:45 AM
You guys are too lazy to pay 50 cents for the bus ride to Southcenter & wait 20-30min but your telling Sechkie & I that live in Tacoma to drive all the way up there on a Thursday night then drive there again in the morning on the weekend to play. wtf?

I had to drive to Southcenter then catch the bus to Seattle to get to Gameworks to save parking fees. Was hoping for some good ID forum member battles...but that was fail.

Edit: Wouldn't let me play? I never intended to...never had a Gameworks card. I came to battle & meet some of the ID forum members...I came at the wrong day. Had a couple & Asian man taking up the left side & you guys taking the right.

It's your guy's problem of assuming they just came to watch.

Why you only do TA? You get more pts doing LOTS & you people get shitty times because of the slow pedal....

Posted by: Jerry Liu May 26 2008, 10:50 AM
The thing is... You guys are actually WILLING to do it... Those other guys, not so much.
We told you already, if you REALLY wanted to battle, all you had to do was put your card up at the top like the rest of us and put accept on. I'm willing to bet the majority of those guys are willing to see what you can do after standing around watching us for 3 hours and not playing. Also, when Dion came, I saw that you had bought a card already, but you didn't even take that chance, you just did a Legend Of The Street race and left.

Posted by: Weezy May 26 2008, 10:55 AM
I bought the card when Dion came not before. Then he told me to save it since yesterday was not a good day to use it with you guys powerlvling.

Posted by: 08TTGSL May 26 2008, 10:59 AM
man you know what its either put up or shut up. i say a good old fashoned battle would settle this shyt.

Posted by: Jerry Liu May 26 2008, 11:03 AM
But you still bought a card... You could've used it by then. Like I said, we were too busy working on our cars to give a damn about anything else, but if you really wanted to race, just do what I told you. I'm pretty sure those guys will be back there next Saturday around 3 or 4. I see them there everytime I go. And this time, PLEASE actually play and DON'T complain.
Oh, and the main reason why I only Time Attack are the points. If I really care about my time, I would go to Acme. I notice when you continue doing Legend Of The Streets over and over, your points start to decrease and when you lose, you only get 1000 points.

I'm just gonna do to Gameworks on a odd day & powerlvl myself. You guys have FT so I need to FT.

You never beaten LOTS so for you it's better to do that?

Posted by: Jerry Liu May 26 2008, 11:12 AM
There's only like 3 people in Seattle that's got at least one fully-tuned car... Like I said earlier, I was too busy working on my car to give a damn about anything else, that includes Legends Of The Streets, so I'm just going to continue Time Attacking and racking up points till I fully tune all my cars. Maybe then will I worry about Legends Of The Streets.
Do the time card method I posted above. You should be able to fully-tune at least one car in little to no time.

Posted by: 08TTGSL May 26 2008, 11:21 AM
lmao the points dont decrease. iono what your talkin about jerry but the points for lots never changes.

Posted by: Jerry Liu May 26 2008, 11:23 AM
I beat Ry (Ryousuke) in Akagi and got 9000 points. Raced him again, I got 5000. The same thing happened to John when he raced the two guys from Tokyo on Lake Akina.

Posted by: BNR34NISMO May 26 2008, 11:39 AM
hold up so does anybody in tacoma know if theres someone that plays wmmt3 with a evo 6rs named C.S.R? or evo 8rs named VIC**? and points do decrease in story mode for ID4. llike jerry sed, i beat that s15, 1st got 8990 pts, 2nd time 4999, 3rd time was like 3xxx. and i really dont care about ID4 or battling at it like i said i play it to kill time while waiting for gameworks to get WMMT3. and to whoever asked if my r34 was FT, its 7-7-7-2-2. so anybody looking to battle at ID4, race my friends cuz im not into ID4 that much. i rather own you guys at WMMT3.

Posted by: Jerry Liu May 26 2008, 12:05 PM
This isn't Maximum Tune. Quit saying it. I'll beat them there too, but quit talking about Maximum Tune.
Weezy, in case you're wondering... FAKUE! was me, !!PK!! was John (BNR34NISMO), and EDD!E was Eddie (S30Z).
Anyway, I'm going back to bed. Yes, I am aware it is 1 PM, but I slept at 5 AM last night then I am heading off to Folklife. Good day and sweet dreams.

Nice to meet you, too. Remember, if you wanna battle, do what I told you and DON'T complain, please.
It's your choice if you really wanna do the time card method I mention, but if you want 420 games for only $10 and fully tune your one, maybe two cars, I'm pretty sure it's worth it.

Posted by: Sechkie May 26 2008, 04:04 PM
did u race him again on the same level of lots or a different level?

Posted by: Jerry Liu May 26 2008, 04:38 PM
I raced him again on the same level.

Posted by: Sechkie May 26 2008, 05:48 PM
thats y i believe. if u race him on the next level then the points should go up again.
can anyone give me the details on pricing for time cards because i can't find the information on the webpage. thanks

Posted by: Jerry Liu May 26 2008, 06:11 PM
It's $10 for 7 hours on Thursdays after 9.
Use the method I described in the previous page.

Posted by: BNR34NISMO May 26 2008, 06:38 PM
time cards? what jerry said is the best deal that gameworks has. 7hrs of gameplay for $10, normally $10 would only get you 160credits which is 8 games of ID4. but ONLY on thursdays, they have a 7hr card for $10. and for ID4, you can keeping swiping the timecard every 85secs (per swipe counts as one game). so thats a hell of alot of games for only $10 compared to buying credits which only get you 8 games for the same price of $10. even the online coupons arent as cheap as the thursday deal, online is $15 for 3hrs. but each game varies when using time cards, like it depends on normally how many credits it cost to play the game, example ID4 cost 20credits for nonmembers or 18 for VIP members. which ID simluator cost 25credits but when you use the time card instead it uses 5mins of how ever many hrs you got on there. that why i think playing is anywhere else and payin $1-$2 PER GAME! is a rip off. considering there the option of 7hrs (296 games @ 85sec per swipe) for $10.

Posted by: Weezy May 26 2008, 08:57 PM

Damn I understand now...clear explanation.
Thought the time cards used credits too so I was like, huh wtf?

i know thee 2 arcades in tacoma but i heard all of them only have 2 WMMT3 machines. im tryin to look for an arcade with 4 machines but closest is canada.
but hey im up for ID4 battles, even thought i might lose considered the r34 is a fatass and im still pretty noob. plus those tacoma ppl, ure welcome to come up here and race us since there are days where ALL we do is battle at ID4. and once you TA at gameworks, youll know what jerry means when he says the machines are messed up. everyone at gameworks notices the difference between the ID4 here and the ID4 at ACME. like i posted earlier got a 2'49 lake akina topped out at 204/5 at ACME while gameworks keep gettin 2'55 and top out at 193. that is what i mean when i said it takes way more skill to set records at gameworks than ACME and other arcades.

I told you f**kin 837958937539485793845 times already to not use the R34 as your main car...

Posted by: BNR34NISMO May 26 2008, 09:51 PM
i like the r34. only problem with it is its too fat so i gotta get closer then normal to the walls. im starting to get close to boaters times, STARTING TO! lol. the evo9 is used too much everyone got one. thats why i dont want it as a main battle/ta car. its just like back then in wmmt2/3 everyone was like WTF! r34 sucks. until i starts kickin everyone ass with it. i remember i was ths FIRST person in seattle with a FT R34. now eveyrone wants one. like you said the r34 has bad handling cuz its too heavy. but everyone know itll own on straights, and the r34 is the same in ID4 as wmmt2. IMO its good enough to keep up on turns band fast as hell on straights.

Posted by: Jerry Liu May 26 2008, 09:55 PM
I'm talkin about Initial D 4, not Maximum Tune 3.

Posted by: BNR34NISMO May 26 2008, 09:59 PM
im sayin that in BOTH ID4 and WMMT3 the r34 is not the fastest but still good enough at cornering but at straights its hella fast. and i chose it as my main car in id4 cuz nobody had it at that time.

Posted by: Jerry Liu May 26 2008, 10:02 PM
Notice how you hit the wall 90% of the time you make a turn on your Time Attacks? Yeah, that's why you DON'T use an R34 as your main car when you Time Attack.

Posted by: BNR34NISMO May 26 2008, 10:08 PM
thats cuz i dont get close enough to the apex. plus the r34 is too f**kin fast to countersteer thats why i hit walls. and thats only on certain courses like irohazaka.

Posted by: Jerry Liu May 26 2008, 10:13 PM
You just proved my point on why you shouldn't use an R34 when you Time Attack.

Posted by: BNR34NISMO May 26 2008, 10:20 PM
im close to mastering cornering on the r34 in irohazaka. but think if id mastered the cornering which just needs more practice and during a battle im right behind you. i can just pass you on the straights with the r34. its just the on the straights is go hella fast then i needa slow down and use brake more then you guys thats all. plus i already put too much time into the r34. im stickin with it. id scarp it if i didnt have any 7s.

Posted by: Jerry Liu May 26 2008, 10:32 PM
You needa start using that FD or scrap it.

Posted by: BNR34NISMO May 27 2008, 03:39 PM
i think its funny how wezzy called us all noobs except dion when i used dions s2000 today and smoked his irohazaka by like 8secs on the gameworks machines lol. so wezzy...dion isnt a noob but for sure hes NOT best out of the ppl at gameworks lol, i killed his time and i messed up alot, plus i can named 6-7 ppl that would beat me on battle and kill my TA records. cuz if you call dion the best at gameworks. then all my frends are more like legends or gods. im not comin here to start a flame war im just point FACTS out. even ask jerry liu he was there with me. so please dont call us noobs anymore.

Posted by: 08TTGSL May 27 2008, 03:41 PM
lmao that 3:07 was from a stock s2k lol.

Posted by: BNR34NISMO May 27 2008, 03:45 PM
im just saying, no disrespect to you two. but its true. if he claims the you (dion) are the best here. then the chinese boaters and us are more like gods. no disrespect. im just pointin that out cuz on sunday he called ALL of us noobs.

Posted by: 08TTGSL May 27 2008, 03:48 PM
actually i was talkin bout my iro time XD that shyt was made from a stock s2k lol. im jus letting people know that.....

Posted by: BNR34NISMO May 27 2008, 03:56 PM
AP1 is f**kin sick as hell. lol im still not gonna make one until my bnr34 is 77777. right now its 77722, but ap1 is seriously hella fast and good on all courses. no wonder every boater here has a AP1. and i know ur talkin bout that time. im just sayin that ur not the best, i mean ur still good but not as good as weezy says you are, cuz he ranked you as #1 in seattle, while theres HELLA ppl he doesnt even know about, like ACE, HUNTER, SKY, KERVIN and his 3 other cards, D&D and his 7 other cards, EDD!E, and a few more i forgot to mention.

Posted by: 08TTGSL May 27 2008, 03:58 PM
SCRAP the R34 lol AP1>R34

Posted by: BNR34NISMO May 27 2008, 04:10 PM
yea i liek the AP1 in ID4 over the BNR34. but i already spent too much time on it and im not gonna throw all of that down the drain. i might just make another card and then put the AP! in that card since we use timecards now so itll be cheap as HELL. lol instead of payin 60credits that cost $5 to create another card, ill just use 3 mins of our 7hrs time card that only cost $10! HAHA damn i love gameworks for their dirt cheap time cards lol

Posted by: Jerry Liu May 27 2008, 04:14 PM
Scrap the FD and make an S15!

Posted by: 08TTGSL May 27 2008, 04:15 PM
oh and both of u owe me 4 credits lol

EDIT: lol beat mikey with a silvia

Posted by: Jerry Liu May 27 2008, 04:16 PM
I only played 2 games. HE owes you 4 credits.

Posted by: 08TTGSL May 27 2008, 04:17 PM
lol ok so jerry owes 2 and john owes 4 so total is 6 right?

Posted by: BNR34NISMO May 27 2008, 04:20 PM
DION: watever ill juse let you get 4 games from our time card.
JERRY: i was thinking about that, on my other card when i make it on saturday , i was thinkin s2000, s15, then ae86.

damn if you think about it $1US is $about $8 HK. and when we use $10US we get 296 games out of the 7hr time card cuz of damn 85sec wait instead of 60. and for $10US, HK only get 80 games. so we should be pretty damn happy that we dont use actual credits anymore lo. imagine how much $$ we would of spent if it was credits. lol 296 games at 18 credits each, if it was credits $25 would only give you 25 games cuz 450credits playin at 18credits per game. that like at least $500....lol god i love timecards.

Posted by: 08TTGSL May 27 2008, 04:22 PM
lol that means you need 5328 credits to full tune one car!

Posted by: BNR34NISMO May 27 2008, 04:26 PM
lol, im not spending that much to FT 1 f**kin car for a damn game. good thing i stopped using credits for WMMT/ID lol if i did i think id have spent more then 11Gs. 2Gs, on my wmmt3 r34 alone. lol. from now on. were usin timecards, forget credits. haha but i noticed nobody uses the s15 lol. so ill be the first again.

Posted by: Jerry Liu May 27 2008, 04:30 PM
Hell yea, f**k that. I needa work on the MR2 and after that, a f**kin S2000!!!

Posted by: 08TTGSL May 27 2008, 04:33 PM
lol damn that sucks. imma jus FT the GDB and call it good. hell i might jus leave it looking stock jus for kicks.

Posted by: BNR34NISMO May 27 2008, 04:34 PM
lol that why the boater D&D with 7 ID4 cards always has time cards and all his cars on partly tuned or FT. imagine if that guy had to buy credits instead of time cards. i would feel sorry for him , he would of had used like enough credits to buy him a brand new audi A4 or Benz C CLass. lol

even before time cards, i think l aredy spent like almost 1Gs on wmmt2 alone. lol
im gonna make enough cards to store all the cars i want fomr the game lol. ill be the next DIN have like 7or8 cards HAHA sikek ill probaly have like 3 or 4 at the most.

Posted by: Jerry Liu May 27 2008, 04:54 PM
How many does KERVIN have?

Posted by: BNR34NISMO May 27 2008, 05:02 PM
kervin has less then 5 for sure, last time he put up all his cards was when weezy came up here and he had 4 up. DIN got like 7 or 8 and his GF got 2 or more..that hella lol. i also counted all the cars i wanted, and since each card can only store 3 cars. ima need 5 MORE cards in order to have all the cars i want lol. so thats 15 more cars. haha buti doubt i will make it now since my 3 cars in my current card isnt even FTd. after all my 3 cars are FTd, ima start another card. then same process until i get all the 15 cars i like. haha

Posted by: Jerry Liu May 27 2008, 05:08 PM
Wtf you tryna do, make cards with EVERY car in the f**kin game? DAMN.

Posted by: 08TTGSL May 27 2008, 05:13 PM
dang thats hella crazy. so jerry how u feelin thinkin bout your FT'd FD?

Posted by: BNR34NISMO May 27 2008, 05:14 PM
just like in wmmt2/3 lol ima have every car that i like. i like every car in the game except like 3 or 4. i might decide to rule out other cars like not get the GC8V and update it with a GDBF, so that might downsize it to 2 or 3 more cards instead of having 5 more cards lol

Posted by: 08TTGSL May 27 2008, 05:16 PM
the GC8V is better than the GDBF tho so might as well have both of them

hahaha i know im jus messin with u

Posted by: BNR34NISMO May 27 2008, 05:23 PM
hmm i ono then i might just test cars out and thatll be my way of ruling each car out. cuz i was gonna have every toyota except for the ae85 and other version of the ae86(the one thats NOT takumis), i was gona have every nissan except the 180sx and s14. but the r32 adn r34, r32 is smaller then r34 which might be better but i doubt its as powerful as the r34. so thats why instead of havin old and new versions of certain cars (sti/evo/gtr), ima just see which one is the best overall then choose it. cuz i dont want to have CAR A And CAR B when i know CAR B owns CAR A, see what i mean? plus, i wont have to carry as much cards around lol.

Posted by: Jerry Liu May 27 2008, 05:26 PM
It's gonna get HELLA confusing cuz the Initial D 4 cards don't tell you what cars you got, unlike Maximum Tune and Initial D 3.

Posted by: BNR34NISMO May 27 2008, 05:35 PM
just get diff names, like current one is !!PK!!, next could be D.F.G. (da fei gay) or **PK**, or HASHA, or something, trust me when i do make more cards to store the extra cars ima make it so i know which cars are in which card.

and jerry i can see why you like the r33s so much, im on japanese gtr sites and yes, even though the 33 will never be as sexy as the 34, the 33 can be just as sexy as an 32. 35 thats diff, even though i like it, its not RB powered. i use to hate the 33, but im starting to like it more and more lil by lil. it just was never like a 34, right when it came out, i was like SEXY! the 32 too, took some time for me to like the 32.

I can't call all the ID4 players at Gameworks...noobs since I haven't seen em all.
I never said Dion was #1 in Gameworks but he's the only one I seen with some courtesy to others & don't powerlevel like addicts.

NISMO...don't listen to all the shit your buddies are telling you. The R34 is a beast car.
Like the AP1 it is decent on all maps but with the heavier steering & wide body it is a bit tougher but nothing you can't master. Like the FD, Evos, STi etc... it's a power car. Your right, the acceleration is absolutely good. I test drove stock R34 once on Iro and it's STOCK accel is stunning....perhaps enough to compete with near FT or FT underpowered cars.
I think it's too late to say this but for power cars, upgrade the engine, suspension, and body first and worry about the accel and ECU later.

I will get a R34 myself...most of you guys don't know how good it is?


Posted by: 08TTGSL May 27 2008, 07:46 PM
i power level like addicts only when theres no one there LMAO

Posted by: Sechkie May 27 2008, 08:22 PM

hehe

Best thing to do is test drive both cars & decide by how it drives.

Stat wise it's GC8V, it's AWD but I heard it handles like an FR. Best TA map is Akina UH.
The GTR is fine too..it's just a bit of a hassle with the heavier steering & wide body.

Posted by: Sechkie May 27 2008, 08:37 PM
basically i just want to get a top tier battle car >.< thats it
since i hav emy s2k for most ta's
u know?
im assuming that both the gc8v and r34 are great battle cars

Posted by: BNR34NISMO May 27 2008, 11:51 PM
i know that the r34 ISNT a piece of shit. everyone says it is a hella good car but its just too big which is bad for certain courses. nobody was sayin the performance of the r34 was shit, just the wide ass body compared to other top teir cars.

Posted by: 08TTGSL May 28 2008, 10:22 AM
john whats your TA for iro dh with the R34?

Posted by: BNR34NISMO May 28 2008, 04:29 PM
very bad cuz the r34 cant do the jumps fast enough. at acme i almost got 2 57 XXX when it was 77522, now that its 77722, i got 3 00 without the jump and hittin walls since it is the r34.

Posted by: Jerry Liu May 28 2008, 07:40 PM
I WAS going to start another card composed of ALL 4WDs (notice how my lineup is ALL RWDs?), but after realizing how frustrating it is to fully-tune just ONE car in the card, I decided to not even think about it anymore.
PS: My 4WD lineup was going to be the EVO IX, R34 (maybe R32, not sure), and either GC8 or GDB.

Posted by: Sechkie May 28 2008, 09:30 PM
so what does almost got 257 mean??
u got a 258??
and hitting walls isnt that bad on iro i hit A LOT!!! of walls on iro i hit walls like crazy !!
and it doesnt really hurt ur time i think it actually helps as long as u dont bang the outside wall jsut scrape it >.<
and i suck at the jump turns enough already lol haha MY WEAKPOINT AHH!!!

man does the gc8v win startups often??

Posted by: 08TTGSL May 28 2008, 09:49 PM
damn alex i feel sorry for you. went to seattle for no reason lol. too bad GW was closed today or else i wouldve owned you in a battle.

Posted by: BNR34NISMO May 28 2008, 11:15 PM
sechkie:
my current record was like 3 00 XXX then when i went to acme i tried it, first section i got 2 sec off my record and like 2-3 off their #1, then the rest of the track i just kept f**kin up so eventually retired so yea. otherwise i WOULD get 2 57 maybe even mid 2 56 if i can do the jumps (where mr2 jumps in anime) with the r34 correctly and corner without hittin the walls with r34s fatass.

the record at gameworks is 2 51 995 which is f**kIN FAST considering ACMEs machines dont have the slow/messed up pedals that REALLY messed up ur times during TA. i think if the guy who set 2 51 995 at gameworks TAed at ACME he would knock off 2-4 secs? like how i knocked off 7 secs off my lake akina record frmo 2 55(gamework) to 2 49xxx(ACME).

sechkie: 2 56 to 2 57 at ACME (which got the faster machines) even my frend who usually plays at gameworks played at ACME and suddenly was like WTF!?. i almost got under 2 51 at ACME today, their record there on irohazaka downhill was 2 53 XXX, 1st section i was about 1 sec ahead then next checkpoint about another sec ahead until the jump, i completly f**ked up and my my potential 2 51 became a 2 55 xxx. plus even ask jerry liu. he sed i was crashing like a mofo too the steering wheel on the left machine there is lose when turning. which causes me to hit lots of walla and look like "im driving drunk" according to jerry. im not even lying cuz theres not point of makin stupis shit up like this. its just that everyone i know that plays ID4 here, knows for a FACT, ACME is good for killing ur TA record, NOT for gaining battle experience. gameworks is where its at if you want to gain battle experience.

Jerry liu: EDD!E vs FAKUE! HAHAHAHAH you would so f**kin lose to eddie on iro. tsukuba you mite have a chance at least cuz eddie is still a beast there. i think the only chance you might have at beating eddie is your new "home course" and my old home course back in ID3, akagi DH. i never seen eddie do akagi though but im sure that its more of 50%/50% would win on that course. tsukuba would be like 70%(edde)/30%(jerry), then iro probaly 60%/40%. i say we do these 3 courses on saturday. i seriously wanna watch this lol jerry and hit s 77777 tuned FD3S vs eddie 77311 tuned AE86T lol.

Posted by: 08TTGSL May 29 2008, 10:42 PM

Posted by: Weezy May 29 2008, 10:51 PM
NISMO: The left ACME machine feels just the same steering with the right. I notice the brake pedal is loose a bit on the left than the right. The left seat also doesn't lock up when it's pulled up max.

Posted by: BNR34NISMO May 29 2008, 11:11 PM
weezy, i noticed that the left wheel have more feedback than usual. and yea i HATE that seat. that was one of the reasons i couldnt get under 2 51 on iro DH. cuz i was stepin on brake then the chair slide back and my foot let go of both brake/gas pedals. the right machine was messed up "out of service" so couldnt play on it.

dion: haha only chance for jerry is akagi. lol this saturday! me, eddie, jerry and of course all the boaters are gonna be at gameworks TAin/battling. gary TAed on tuskuba at ACME, he messed up and was only .1 behind lol. cuz you know how normally he would be hella quiet during TA then when he messes up he would go f**k! or SHUT UP! or start talkin about how he f**ked up. damn acmes records are easy to beat. too bad the wheels/seats are messed up. but i did get 1st for both directions of lake akina lol. 2 49 xxx for both directions.

Posted by: Jerry Liu May 29 2008, 11:24 PM
Akagi: I'm the king... 8)
Akina: I HATE Akina with a PASSION...
Irohazaka: Well, I've beaten JOHN (BNR34NISMO). I catch up to him on the hairpins, but whenever there's a straight, he starts pulling away (For obvious reasons. R34 against FD...) Until it was time for the jumps and he went around it whereas I actually took em and won.
Tsukuba: I'm not as good on it as I use to be, but I'll give it a try.

Posted by: BNR34NISMO May 29 2008, 11:50 PM
lol on irohazaka i kept gaining even while doing some hairpins but the major important harpins i lost speed and thats where you caught up especially that damn jump, damn r34. but yea on most of the hairpins you did gain. this saturday ill race you on that course. since the r34 is tuned a lil more and im more experienced since i TA on that course HELLA now compared to when you beat me. when you beat me on iro dh, i was still TAin on lake akina and tsukuba ALL THE TIME then started irohazaka as a new course. so yea this time...its gonna be a close race. and i bet if BOTH of us dont do the jump ill win. cuz you know the jump is like the most important for you not me to get ahead and win. i really dont care if you do the jump since when you beat me i saw you jump and tried to block you and almost did but you squezzed right thru. u b*tch! lol

NEWS FLASH: One of the first version 1.5's in in America. The Narrows machines were just updated yesterday. Let us know what you think. Next time we are up at Acme, we will download the new programs there as well. Enjoy!

Posted by: Jerry Liu May 30 2008, 08:40 AM
What about Gameworks? They're not EVER going to get it, are they? Considering it took them 9 months to get it after release... To be honest, I kinda don't mind if we don't get 1.5 because it's easier to get records with penalty cancel... Hahahaha

Posted by: Weezy May 30 2008, 09:03 PM
I went to Narrows and played 1.5....one word: Oversteer lol.
Instead of understeer like 1.2, 1.5 replaces it with oversteer. So if you turn into a corner too fast...you'll be sliding enough to go in circles heh.
PC removed.
No aura.
No BGM picking.

mvco...I'd also like to note that the left Narrows machine speaker volume is very low. The right is fine.

mvco doesn't work on the gameworks machine.
dion said the gamework mechanic will update in like 2-3 weeks?

Posted by: Jerry Liu May 30 2008, 09:27 PM
So basically, 1.2 is better, thanks.
Well, if the techs at Gameworks are gonna update to 1.5, they should fix the pedals as well, too...

Posted by: Sechkie May 30 2008, 10:31 PM
bnr34: okay so i understand ur saying that u were on a good run okay. but u know.. u dont have an official time until you complete the run...

hmm v1.5?
mannnn i dont wanna do it im gonna hella suck NOO PC NOOO!!!! haha

Posted by: Weezy May 30 2008, 11:05 PM

but yeah im hella gonna suck now
cuz i lock on hella turns in id4

Posted by: Weezy May 31 2008, 11:06 PM
Lol power leveling is a hassle. Yep, I went to Gameworks today Alex. Used my timecard finally. Got only 8 internal upgrades though since some fatass chinese noob came & use the machine I was using. lol he tried kicking me out...epic failure.

Alex, man you will still beat me, even if I have full tune but maybe in 1.5 hah. They took out the lock in 1.5 so you'll just be getting the oversteer.

Oh and Dion & I have suggested that we will be the FT AP1 trio. Once I FT....cool? gay? awesome? lol.

Show gameworks you care about the update & that should do something but everyone there likes 1.2 anyway.

Wow, weezy! Good one! I think your arcade is the only one with 1.5 in the whole US! Go and represent, man!

Posted by: Weezy May 31 2008, 11:53 PM
FR alliance? what alliance? We're in the same group rofl.

Lol Damien...didn't expect you to post here =D
Really the only one? I would of thought there would be some in Cali.
Gotta thank mvco, he's taking care of the machines like babies hah.
Oh mvco, you gotta fix that seat on the left Acme machine, it's annoying not having the seat fully pulled up.

Well of course Im on the look out for fast players from different countries. So far the USA doesnt have a single TA on the records to represent for 1.5. Be the first, man. *thumbs up*

Lol I don't even look on the IR because I'm not that good to be placed on like top 10.
I can try my best & just be the first to be on USA IR 1.5 hahaha. I'll leave the role to my man Alex (Sechkie), he's the best one at the arcade with 1.5 grin2.gif

Posted by: mvco Jun 1 2008, 05:51 AM
I will have our techs take a look at that left seat at Acme on their next trip up there. Will likely get updates to 1.5 at the same time.
On the Narrows machine, I will check the volume level setting today when I am there. Thanks for the input, guys. cool.gif

Damien Wolf: Out of all of us, there's no one in Seattle that's really that good at TAing compared at to other players internationally except a couple of Chinese boaters that play literally ALL THE TIME. Weezy and touge_ninja know what I'm talking about. I swear, the times they hit seem pretty much IMPOSSIBLE with our slow pedals...

MVCO: Do you guys work on Maximum Tune machines, too? Because the card reader in the Maximum Tune 3 machines REALLY REALLY REALLY needs to get cleaned up. The ink on all my cards are smeared like crazy. BNR34NISMO showed me one of the cards he brought back from Canada where they actually clean them regularly and it was BIG difference. Not just the writing, but the pictures on the cards, too. Ours was much darker compared to the ones up there.

Dion: Let's do uphill next time we meet at Gameworks. Tell me next time you're going up to Narrows cuz I might wanna go up there as well. That is, if you're gonna have any room in your car.

Weezy: This is why Gameworks is the BEST if you wanna work on any of your cars. TIME CARDS, BABY!

Posted by: Sechkie Jun 1 2008, 09:54 AM
i am still wondering who are all these fast players that you keep talking about jerry? cause you seem to count yourself among some of the better players at gameworks.

lol wesley
mannn i am gonnna so suck at 1.5 haha the lock is hella gonna mess me up on akina dhd GAY!!!!

PS If you oversteer you get acceleration penalty right?

Posted by: Jerry Liu Jun 1 2008, 10:17 AM
Come down on Friday-Sunday around 4 or so and you'll see them play. I never counted myself as one of the better players... I'm still learning on how to run the courses so I can get a better time. But damn, with our messed up pedals, our times are frickin UNBELIEVABLE...! I am just merely average at best.

That's the point...I will win against you in 1.5 lolol.

Hmm I am not sure if you get the accel penalty once the oversteer hits. The speed doesn't suddenly go down like 1.2 when you hit understeer, you'll have to see for yourself. Go play it...be one of the first US 1.5 players zomg.

Yes, the Max Tune 3's are ours as well. Just cleaned the card readers last week. Let me know if any better now? thx, Bill

Posted by: Jerry Liu Jun 1 2008, 05:15 PM
Thanks, I will give them a try soon, but do you guys think you can PLEASE try to clean them up regularly? Because something in my mind tells me the card readers are going to get dirty again real soon. Thanks.

Posted by: Sechkie Jun 1 2008, 05:39 PM
i wonder if it is possible to make the machines v1.2 again if we believe that v1.5 is really that bad. (havent played it yet)

That wouldnt be good now would it. While everybody has moved on to the next level, you'll be stuck at a failed attempt of Sega (v1.2).

Anyway, Jerry, was wondering when I could see those "unbelievable" times you're talking about. Why not start with sharing information with your local arcade on how to post times on the IR. Honestly, man, the internet records get your blood running.

Here's the key. When you post your time, dont compare it with the number 1. Look for somebody who has the time nearest yours. Set your goal to beat his time first. Once you do, you move on up to the next of the list. Slowly but surely is better than rash and bash, you know. wink2.gif

Damien Wolf: Remember to keep this in mind, okay? THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE SENSITIVITY PEDALS AT OUR LOCAL ARCADE. Like, when you step on it, it doesn't exactly go as fast as it's suppose to. I remember I was TAing at our local arcade one day. I went over to some other arcade across town and shaved off my time by 8 seconds!!! I was watching BNR34NISMO TA on Lake Akina with his R34 and at our local arcade, he was barely able to go over 200 KMH. At that arcade, he was able to hit 230+ and shaved off his time by 7 seconds!!!
Anyway, back to the times.
Akina Downhill: 3'11
Akagi Downhill: 3'40
Irohazaka Downhill: 2'51
Tsukua Outbound: 2'52
That's all I can remember for now. I'll go back to check when I have time.

All good in the hood, jerry. Remember, I also play at an arcade with a broken accel so I know what you're talking about, k?

And 230 kmh??? Highest top speed in the game is 216. And if you hit that, your lake Akina time should be around 2'43-ish! Pls post these times, ayt?

Not bad times also with a broken accel.

Posted by: Jerry Liu Jun 1 2008, 06:56 PM
Okay, maybe I was exaggerating a little bit on the part about Lake Akina, hahahahaha. But the time was 2'49 and that's when he CRASHED. Otherwsie, it coulda been 2'48 or 2'47.

Posted by: Sechkie Jun 1 2008, 07:20 PM
that is true damien, thanks for reminding me about that. but the 230 km/h lol haha
I guess gotta start up on 1.5 soon
Jerry. when u post times it snot what it could've been... its what u got....
he got a 2"49 there are always coulda shoulda woulda but the point is he got a 2"49. live with it deal with it

John's or yours? Because John already has 4 7s and is pretty damn close to be fully-tuned.

Posted by: Jerry Liu Jun 1 2008, 09:07 PM
And judging by your sig, you got a LOONNNGGGG-ass way to go...
I needa fully-tune the MR2 and S2000 so I can finally get started on Legends of the Streets again.
I DOUBT you'll be able to finish it by the end of this week.

Posted by: 08TTGSL Jun 1 2008, 09:08 PM
lol but im getting a 5 hour timecard for free lol so yeah power level

Posted by: Jerry Liu Jun 1 2008, 09:09 PM
Dude, trust me, that's not enough... You'll probably get like 2 7s or 2 7s and a 4 or 3 7s at best... But you WON'T be getting all 7s...

Posted by: 08TTGSL Jun 1 2008, 09:13 PM
lol i got 2 five hour cards

Posted by: Jerry Liu Jun 1 2008, 09:18 PM
Okay, maybe you'll get 7 7 7 7 5 or so, but hey, what's 12 games?

Posted by: BNR34NISMO Jun 2 2008, 12:46 AM
forget about TAin on lake akina, for now.. ima be doin akina uphill. ALMOST got 3 21 xxx. i already got either a 3 24 9xx or 3 25 2xx with 2 minor crashes, and that was when the r34 was 77732, now its 77774. record is 3 20xx on left machine. perfected the first 3 sections. its the last section, i have to somehow find a line where i can stay in 6th gear instead of overrevving in 5th. ill get back to lake akina after i beat michaels 3 20, which will be really soon. but still remember that michael got the advantage since he played ID4 in HK/Macau, i think. thats why hes so quick.

Posted by: 08TTGSL Jun 2 2008, 03:45 PM
gameworks is now 50 cents for the whole summer!!

Posted by: Jerry Liu Jun 2 2008, 03:54 PM
1.8???
Dude, that's LESS than 50 cents...
THAT'S 18 CENTS!!!

Posted by: 08TTGSL Jun 2 2008, 03:58 PM
oh well im jus goin by what the homies that work there said lol. still cheaper than acme or narrows...

EDIT: jerry is 200 for a fairly new LX good?

Depends on the condition, how is it?

Posted by: Weezy Jun 2 2008, 07:09 PM
50 cents a game? Starting when? So the time cards last longer?

Posted by: Jerry Liu Jun 2 2008, 07:15 PM
No, the time cards still remain the same.
It's just they charge less when you use actual credits in your card now.

I see, you know when it starts? On summer?

Can I add credits to my time card?

Posted by: Jerry Liu Jun 2 2008, 07:23 PM
Is your card purple or blue?
If it's purple, no.
If blue, yes.
As far as what Dion told me, it started today or whatever.
The BEST value: $25 in your card. You get 250 credits + 200 bonus credits = 450 credits!!!
2.0 credits per game (Usually, it's 20), 1.8 for VIP (Usually it's 18) Gets you 225-250 games!!!
Oh, in case you're wondering, you NEED to put $200 into your card in order to become a VIP.

Posted by: Weezy Jun 2 2008, 07:37 PM
Cool, got the blue one.
So that's 225 games for $25.
I thought there was a one time fee to be VIP?
Guessing that 7 hr time card deal still exist?

Posted by: 08TTGSL Jun 2 2008, 07:41 PM
lmao the points system is different for the summer $5=20points....

Posted by: Jerry Liu Jun 2 2008, 07:46 PM
Okay, and how much is it for $25?
And yes, the 7 hour time cards STILL exist.
I swear, Gameworks is just making it easier for us to fully-tune our cars.
I guess this is to make up for getting Initial D 4 9 months late...
Imagine what happens when/if they get Maximum Tune 3!

Then Din and his GF came and he lowered the tsukuba record to 2 56xxx. then he kept lowering it, it might be at 2 55 or 254 by now. im goin to GW tomorrow after school to get teh 3hr time card with food. then ill go on saturday or sunday to FT my evo 9.

also did you lower the wmmt3 c1 record to 2 52 1xx? or was that oscar? and my r34 still has the wangan crown lol. its been almost 2 weeks. i raced it and lost.. by 10m at the end. hit a damn r2.

I still have a long way to go wakaka (I only have all 3s for the S2000)

Oh, u are right, I lowered the C1 record to something like 2'52"134 (it was like 2 weeks ago, could get a 2'51" from that run, but too slow on the last few turns). And I need to take over your wangan area crown when next time I'm down at acme.
