IDW Special Member Group: Members Posts: 250 Member No.: 12,029 Joined: Sep 7th 2005 Location: Update Profile | finally found asakurayume today! well he's got like 10 cards with diff names but finally found him. he was the 1st to hit 2'57" on akina dh. i played with him everyday in beta testing but havent seen him till today. man he gets crazy speeds. today he was using an FD3S. watched him and later he coached me a bit. got new ways to take the corners. didnt have time or money to perfect it but i'll try again later this week. i was able to take 3 turns like 10kph faster than usual. hopefully can hit the 3'00" mark soon, considering i did a 3'04" with my old techniques. fingers crossed... also won 3 in a row and got my new GDBF to B1 rank. no biggie but nice for one day. moving along well This post has been edited by Braja on Jul 25 2007, 06:53 AM |

Messed up in Iro though. This post has been edited by kct on Jul 25 2007, 07:30 AM |

Team YG Revilution Group: Advanced Members Posts: 930 Member No.: 1,540 Joined: Mar 29th 2004 Location: Auckland, New Zealand | Meet up with Retsuka today and he showed me a few tips about Irohazaka and Tsukuba. I then proceeded to beat Kyouichi and Kai on Iro with no problems at all. With Kai I managed to block him up to the jumps and I blocked him through the first jump too. He then overtook me on the 3rd jump but I took him back just before the final set of consec hairpins. I flew through Tsukuba with no problems either only had to try again for God Hand. Then I defeated Takumi and Keisuke but lost to Bunta on Akina. Cheers Retsuka for the help |

IDW Prime Member Group: Advanced Members Posts: 644 Member No.: 20,944 Joined: Oct 14th 2006 Location: Seremban,Malaysia / Singapore | Had this happened to me yesterday. Posted it in one of the other threads too.. =P There's this almost ft evo9 noob that challenged me and my mr2. Thought i was gonna get smoked when i saw the tuning on his car.. he brought me to iro dh dry for the first 4 challenges. Yea, I won all 4.. by about 30-50m for all. And then he looks at me and calls me a fisher. I was like.. Omg, this scene feels so damn familiar when I played IDASV3. Wtf, no one asked you to bring the top car on iro to its home course. And not to mention his car is like about 5-7-3-3-7(or something like that. I only clearly noticed the 2 ft parts and the engine). And he calls me a fisher. " Then he brings me to tsukuba for our 5th match. I got smoked by 200m. I was like, "ok if that's how you wanna play it.." I continued my game, not realising that if he had challenged me and if i continued the game, he still has the advantage of choosing the course. Me and my smart ass and impatience of waiting for the card to eject etc... =/ He brings me to tsukuba outbound dry again. This time, in a desperate attempt, I rammed him at startup and got the lead. Blocked him all the way until he overtook me at the last hairpin before the finish line. It felt like I was playing LoTS vsing Keisuke on level 3 or something.. =/ After that, took him to iro dh dry(finally found the sense to eject the card, though he was rushing to force quit his game so that i won't challenge him back). He rammed me on startup and i was like 80m behind him by the time i reached the first hairpin. =/ I still won him by 30m in the end. XD Then he continued and did the same mistake that I did, so I get to choose the course again, this time taking him to akina dh dry. Bad move though, although I won, I had to block him all the way. MASSIVE acceleration advantage. Only managed to gain leads on the corners. After that battle, he stands up and shouts, "WILL YOU STOP F*CKING FISHING ME? YOU KNOW HOW PRECIOUS MY CAR IS?!" I was like.. uh.. wtf...?? Being faced so much with this type of people (and gotten used to it), I just brushed it aside, and said to him "Dude, this is just a game. Chill man.. If it helps, I'll buy you a drink after I'm done here." He stares at me, runs to the counter to top up his swipe card, ejects his card and rechallenges me to akina lake. " Rammed him at startup again though he managed to lead, but only for a few moments. XD Obviously he doesn't know what Penalty Cancel is. Blocked him all the way till the finish line. XD He now heads to top his card up again, but with the long queue at the counter, I managed to force quit my way out of my game before he heads back and terrorises me again. X( Note: All races were boost off, thanks to the stupid dignity thing in Singapore. And after I ejected my card, I still offered him, "You still need your chilling drink?" He just ignores me and continues with his own game, switching on his In-Store battle option thinking that I might rechallenge him again. And soon, I finally found out, he hasn't even finished his first cycle on LoTS. =/ I think he's Malaysian for some reason. Because I'm one too and I know how sore losers from there act like. XD Ah well... This post has been edited by shadow_z3r0 on Jul 26 2007, 07:01 PM |

Team YG Revilution Group: Advanced Members Posts: 930 Member No.: 1,540 Joined: Mar 29th 2004 Location: Auckland, New Zealand | lol it was AZFDIK UPDATE: Just got back from the arcade after meeting up with the YG Revilution boys. They were all too busy crowding around the maximum tune 3 machine so I had a few games of ID3 by myself. Tried out the wall raping tech on Irohazaka and got around 2'59"6xx. This is on a stock Trueno with step 1 engine upgrade only. Still have to work on it though definitely more improvements to come. Other than that I got step 2 engine tune + carbon bonnet today.

IDW Prime Member Group: Advanced Members Posts: 644 Member No.: 20,944 Joined: Oct 14th 2006 Location: Seremban,Malaysia / Singapore | I just did a 54 in iro with a stock capp today. O_o don't ask me how.. i can't do it again for nuts.. the best part about it is that i wasn't even doing a TA. It was just against Kyoichi on iro dry.. =/ The acceleration for the capp is way way higher than my mr2.. why is the mr2 still tops for iro? that still puzzles me.. does a ft mr2 run faster than a ft capp? |

So far most opponents havent given me trouble. (Takumi and Bunta on Akina are the exceptions....). Also did Tsukuba OB 2'53"8 with the FD. My CP4 killed off what could have been a lower 53 |

Not Without Incident Group: Advanced Members Posts: 2,803 Member No.: 22,878 Joined: Jan 18th 2007 Location: Someplace very violent... | I played the game earlier, made my card, made 3 cars and beat lots until Akina until I ran out of cash. I'm really not liking the physics. Not because its different (heck, I play a lot of racing games with different physics: BG3, BG4, GT4, Kaido Battle 3, and IDver3) but because of a lot of stuff I find annoying. There's the random understeer I keep experiencing especially on Myogi. Where you do your turn all the way then suddenly the car stops turning like you hit an invisible wall. Oh I like the frills, the gimmicks and all but playing the game itself its... I dont know... Anyway, I still have my missions for Ver3, will keep doing like 3 or 4 runs a week in Ver4 just to keep a feel for the game and get the times. It also seems like no matter what car I'm using ( I made a trueno, FC and S2k) it all just drives the same. I do a combination of old school driving like in Ver3 with a lot more attention to my speeds and the map. Maybe I will play the game more when the prices go down. |
