speaking about blocking.. i find the V5 blocking harder to perform. cuz if the opponents car is ahead of your car's rear door, it will be harder to block do you think that acceleration is the key to winning the map? (Say, boost off, both FT cars and drivers of equal skill) Trueno (7-4-0-0-0) | ||

Depends on the level of skill. At extremely high levels of play, it will be all about strategy - how the two drivers plan to use the tire management system. Although I dislike how they executed the whole boost system, it does add a whole new level of depth to the game. At lower levels of play, it will be more about technique and execution, as these things are usually perfected by the time you get to extremely high levels of play. Worry about keeping the best line possible, and taking everything slowly and properly. Do everything correct, and don't make mistakes. For two equal opponents at this level of skill, it will all come down to who makes less mistakes. This post has been edited by Yaoi on Jul 21 2009, 02:52 PM | ||

Since i do my other cps smoothly, I get a massive boost on cp3- cp4 and end up winning. The only time this doesnt work for me is if my opponent does the 1st 2 cp's better then me. When i play boost off i just go all out since its about actual skill of the players/cars rather then utilization the boost system. |

If I'm not mistaken, Boost Assist is independent of tire management boost, and there's even a bug where Boost Assist starts going away the further you go into CP4. | ||

The boost assist doesn't really "go away". It's just that by the time you hit CP4, the whole "tire management" thing really matters, to the point that the boost assist won't help much if at all. Mind you, the boost assist in ID5 is actually pretty weak. It *looks* strong because the tire management boost is backing it up. | ||

During online battles boost is considered all forms of boost so when its off then the tire management and the assist are off. After its off then the race is purely based on weather or not ur car is FT and taking turns using a better line then the other guy. When its on then both systems are playing a factor in the race, the guy behind gets a boost assist but it can be weakened if the guy ahead doesnt hit anything and does turns well but once the guy in front hits a wall then all the boost assist returns to the guy behind. Japanese arcaders explained to me that the new boost online system is like the anime where project D goes 75% in the beginning of the race then always passes at the end. personally i think the whole boost system is wacked out but i still love the game | ||

No. Tire Management is always on regardless whether the boost is ON or OFF. | ||

Yup, I'm double-confirming this. Tire-management boost will always be there regardless of boost on or off. If it was off, you'd see plenty of battles with really high speed cornerings. | ||

i'm playing on the Japan version if that makes a difference. i do high speed cornering in boost off online battles but its just not high speeds like the other IDAS, its more of less brake going in then earlier acceleration coming out. i'll try to record a few matches next time i see some high ranked guys playing boost off or i'll try to have my cam when i race some1 online with it off so you guys can see this. | ||

If the situation is good, nothing to worry about and the world is at peace, I will just drive in my own pace. Won't really bother about the opponent line, car, ect... However if i need to go to the toilet, will most likely drive like an idiot... A COOL NOOB |

IDW Member Group: Members Posts: 26 Member No.: 37,996 Joined: Oct 16th 2011 Location: Johor Bahru , Malaysia | Boost ON - Just follow my opponent and never touch his tail. Safe my boost at CP1 CP2 and CP3 but very close follow and step my gas smoothly for safe my tyre. Make them supprise at last 200 m before finish line . If I loose , exactly my opponent level is most high then me. So for next battle change my strategy to pass him early and try at in front untill finish line . Boost OFF - If I know my oppenent level higher than me , I must go first. Then just follow my TA driving skill |
