Dear all, i have 1 question wanna to ask everyone, and kindly please can give me a feedback...

Now i played Initial D 6AA online battle in level Master +, and i try to play with boost without bang the wall, and i saw too many video from youtube as well, but i still cannot make a boost speed up, example: akina snow - my maximum speed is 170km/h, but youtube video can run untill 180++km/h.

Does anyone know how can i make it, is that the different in between machine version or arcade game configuration as well.

Thanks you...

Apparently this belongs to the Arcade section.

at the last 2 pages of this thread,we've discussed about this "boost style" mostly explained by Alvin here.Hope this helps.

well...put it this way...Japanese machines are a bit "different" in the actual speed that they're currently travelling

dunno why but machines in japan...they show the Actual Speed that they currently driving....while MYS, SGP machines....they only show Imaginary Speed that ur currently driving...


dun worry bout the speed....if u're doing boost correctly...u can still catch up and overtake them at last minute....

Wait..I've never heard of this before.Is this in Online Battle only?Or does it apply to every mode?Does this apply to JPN machines here?
Then I'd better be prepared to face the differences when I play EXP machines..

that....i'm not sure...
but the speed part, as i've mentioned...that is for sure...

It only works for online battles if not mistaken...their speed meter tends to go higher than us but in terms of car acceleration, it's the same only that we have to imagine what speed we are at...
For Time Attack, it's the same for worldwide players

I'm curious though, why the need for the difference in the first place? Its not like the games are incompatible with each other since we're fighting each other all the time, even if its just ghosts.

Well, some of us see it as an advantage for Japan players as they know what speed they actually are in but i think it's no big deal, it's just their Japan version's patch that's all...

They might as well make us battle "ghosts" like in WMMT.
Maybe that'll be better?

Aren't we already doing that though?

We are battling ghost cars now lol but it's live ghost cars which means both players are consider as battling each other from their place, they still calculate your boost and stuffs to see who wins the battle but sometimes, it could turn out to be a 2 win as for example, you might be winning an opponent like around 0.2m by blocking him just a bit but on his side, he might already pass you...

I believe I've been told that's why a lot of people like to play Tsukuba IB, its because its easier to double win. So a lot of ID players sort of pakat and put it as they're home course.

^ If I remember correctly,that was in Ver.EXP 1.0 and JPN 1.0
It's fixed now in EXP 2.0..as for JPN Idk..

Well, from what i heard, it wasn't fully fixed so there is still chance for a 2 win at Tsukuba IB...especially around CP3 somewhere along the straight is where the opponent will so call 'let you pass' but of course, you need to know how to run Tsukuba IB decently to let this happen...

2 win is the so-called "DOUBLE WIN" right? or in chinese is..."双赢"..
Well I kind of understand it now.

Just something to add on. Double wins may not necessarily be at Tsukuba IB. It can happen on any map, any condition.
It's just that the probability of a double win on Tsukuba IB DRY is the highest with just basic TA-ing there without any boosting methods. Wet condition however, would require some bit of boosting around CP1, and go all out afterwards.

Yeah, especially considering a lot of the higher level players have really fast times there. In hindsight, I really wished I knew about this last year so I can put some training onto that course.

Yea double wins could happen at any courses at all since you're battling a so called ghost car, for example, i had my experience on Sadamine uphill where i wasn't playing boost but for sure my opponent was and at cp4 i managed to block him to the finish line just barely winning, i'm sure on his side, he may have passed me...
