| Posted by: AXEL* Apr 5 2011, 01:34 PM | ||
round 1 in socal is the ONLY cali location with id6aa. metreon wont even upgrade the mt3 machines |
| Posted by: Whiteboywilly Apr 5 2011, 05:06 PM |
| The Metreon actually closed down. |
| Posted by: matrixmatt Apr 7 2011, 11:46 AM |
cards should be coming real soon (this weekend is an extreme possiblity  ) |
| Posted by: PandaApex Apr 7 2011, 03:20 PM |
| Here I was about to say "HELL YEAH GOING DOWN THERE DURING SPRING BREAK". Then realized it was a 6 hour drive getting there and I couldn't go there and back without having a place to stay down there. |
| Posted by: kidosuka Apr 11 2011, 10:10 PM |
| Have the cards came in yet for this game or are you guys still waiting for the cards to come in? Still hoping norcal will get it some time soon. |
| Posted by: AXEL* Apr 11 2011, 10:46 PM | ||
unless you can get the golfland managers info on where exactly to get it, ie a concrete source with pricing and shipping info, norcal will not be getting it.  |
| Posted by: kidosuka Apr 12 2011, 08:33 AM |
| Here is the link to buy it. Could you show it to golfland managers so they can buy it? http://www.arcade-game-sales.com/products/11061-1.html Let us know the updates if golfland managers decide to purchase it. |
| Posted by: AXEL* Apr 12 2011, 02:15 PM | ||
what we need are UPGRADE KITS, new machines arent gonna happen anytime soon. they will not buy new machines or second-hand machines for that matter, they're just too expensive. |
| Posted by: StReEtWaLkeR Apr 12 2011, 02:41 PM |
| I don't think we should be so hasty on cards. (In case the cards are arriving from Japan) I'll check tonight or tomorrow. The workers said to me that cards would be 3 dollars like WMMT3. But you'll never know. |
| Posted by: DARKKNIGHT321 Apr 12 2011, 02:46 PM |
| Why don't golfland managers just get the kit from the person they got version 5 from? It would be a lot easier that way. |
| Posted by: AXEL* Apr 12 2011, 10:58 PM | ||
they arent getting back to us. we(@svg) emailed and called them several times over the past month and havent gotten 1 single reply back. we pretty much are assuming they dont have or cant get it and are trying other sources but so far everyone is selling new/used machines and we simply cannot afford to spend 10-15k per location on new machines. it costed 17.5k for ALL the 5 upgrade kits for all 4 local gls |
| Posted by: azn988 Apr 15 2011, 04:02 PM |
| Well keep trying. We all waiting for some place to have it around here. |
| Posted by: turtl3j Jun 1 2011, 10:15 PM |
| i'm pretty curious whether the price per play will drop if and when cards are available at round 1. i remember when wmmt3dx+ was an eyesore to my wallet before cards were available. |
| Posted by: azn988 Jun 1 2011, 10:17 PM |
| initial d is only for the rich to play, no money means no initial d |
| Posted by: turtl3j Jun 1 2011, 10:24 PM | ||
i know what you mean, i have a bad habit when it comes to spending money. i usually have to strip my bills, debit, credit, etc. and settle for a $5 before i set foot outside my house |

| Oh baby. This is going to be a fun summer lol Casino ----> Round 1 vice versa |
| Posted by: azn988 Jun 1 2011, 10:47 PM |
| Anybody has round 1 contact number? Wondering if they can help bay area get the game as well. |
| Posted by: Agent556 Jun 2 2011, 12:28 AM |
| Would probably really difficult even if they contact Round 1. They'd have to buy it from Round 1 which is a Japanese company, who would have to buy it from Sega at full price. Don't think they can get the upgrade kits if they don't have v5 anymore. |
| Posted by: Varcion Jun 2 2011, 10:31 AM |
| Any1 have any idea as to when Round 1 might have cards? |
| Posted by: azn988 Jun 2 2011, 11:41 PM |
| Wondering if there is a japanese arcade in the bay area. Anybody know if san francisco might have some or maybe japan town? |
| Posted by: matrixmatt Jun 11 2011, 03:44 AM |
| the cards are in spread the word i have one and i'll take a pic of it when i get up in 6 hrs or so....hella tired here's pic for proof |
| Posted by: Agent556 Jun 11 2011, 09:05 PM |
| Cards are definitely in, can't wait till someone kicks me off the #1 spot on the time attacks so I can see how much harder I have to learn to keep up. Also, going from Stock to Spec 3 = 10-20 second difference in time. holy crap. |
| Posted by: matrixmatt Jun 13 2011, 12:04 AM |
| ggs tonight guys 2v2 matches are too fun and having a card is alot better then i realized. any ways might pop in more through the week lates. |
| Posted by: Agent556 Jun 13 2011, 01:08 AM |
| Ah, now i know who you are: Matt x lol |
| Posted by: matrixmatt Jun 13 2011, 01:45 PM |

| Posted by: matrixmatt Jun 20 2011, 02:15 PM |
| sir......you cant beat me lol. p.s. this game is so much fun |
| Posted by: Agent556 Jun 20 2011, 05:59 PM |
| A certain person says his FD owns, so that may mean Snivy is being called out? |
| Posted by: StReEtWaLkeR Jun 20 2011, 08:25 PM |
I got card finally won't be playing this game seriously until Sept. so I can level up my car. I'm too focus saving money and improving my skills in Starcraft 2.  |
| Posted by: turtl3j Jun 20 2011, 09:56 PM |
| finally full spec'ed my FC, but.. i still suck! nagao has definitely been kicking my butt, i just don't know how to take those turns without grinding into the wall! sad face* |
| Posted by: matrixmatt Jun 21 2011, 01:54 AM |
your not the only one  either go to face and hit walls or go to slow and lose your margin to the cpu |
| Posted by: Agent556 Jun 22 2011, 01:47 AM |
| Turning with your foot off of the gas lets your car take a smaller turning radius, allowing you to clear a turn without hitting the wall. Try going around some of those turns without being on the gas, then applying gas right as you exit, then steering into the next turn, then getting off of the gas for the rest of the turn, and reapplying gas on exit. rinse repeat, that should help with your times 0: enter on gas 1: turn into corner 2: off gas 3: on gas on exit 4: turn into next corner 5: off gas 6: on gas on exit |

whats going on guys, been lurking these forums for a good while now, and agent556 made me get an account, so here i am  if you see me around, don't be afraid to say whatsup, i don't bite  |
| Posted by: turtl3j Jun 25 2011, 09:26 AM | ||
you'll probably see me around too, i'm using the white FC, but with a female avatar. every other FC i've seen have male avatars so you'll probably spot me easily. who are you again? lol edit: oops i just noticed your sig after signing in. you and ruddy murdered us last night D: |
| Posted by: thatoldf33ling Jun 25 2011, 02:04 PM | ||
LOL, naw i thought you guys did ok too, i saw you got rudy last night so still something  besides, were all still learning this game. its still new for us. oh also, is there any other fc drivers there besides me, you, comet, and maybe matt rondinda? i haven't met as much yet  |
| Posted by: Agent556 Jun 26 2011, 12:18 AM |
| im somewhat suprised i didnt see as many FDs as i expected either. Alot of S2000 though |
| Posted by: turtl3j Jun 27 2011, 07:52 PM |
| if i were to make another car, would the LoTS reset and start back to the very first chapter? or does it continue off at my latest chapter? |
| Posted by: Agent556 Jun 27 2011, 08:07 PM |
| it continues at the latest chapter, having an additional car is merely the car that needs to be tuned. thats why the aura and wings will appear on all of the cars in the card for me |

| Cut my akina dhd from 3'18'1xx -> 3'13'xxx earlier today ranking in 4th. next time i'm hoping to shave a couple seconds down to rank up with the top 3 hopefully my summons to jury duty tomorrow doesn't call upon my group so that i could practice more! |
| Posted by: matrixmatt Jun 30 2011, 02:41 PM |

| Posted by: matrixmatt Jul 6 2011, 06:39 AM |
| there should be a video up showing my 8th place goodness but ya after playing for a min and watching alot of the matches i think i have the top 5 cars down now 1. s2000 2. RX7 FD 3. AE 86 4. roadster 5. NSX s2000 even in stocked is just too good. 4th could be changable for me but 5th is for sure nsx so for the fact that is such a good battle car because of the length it has. discuss |
| Posted by: Agent556 Jul 6 2011, 01:16 PM |
| from what people have been saying in the general initial d arcade stage threads, the car rankings are something like this: 1: AE86 2: Roadster, 5 speed 3: FD3S or NSX or FT86 4: everything else hence the term "Tofu Delivery Armada" |
| Posted by: matrixmatt Jul 23 2011, 01:50 AM |
| i'm glad to see alot of new people playing at round 1. sry i've been quite lately...work and school and wmmt 3dx+ but any ways. ya gonna be really fun playing this game in the future |

i wonder if my akina snow time is still there.....probably not  |
| Posted by: Orisue Aug 2 2011, 05:35 PM |
| I wonder the same thing about my terrible akagi time :/. (still debating whether i should go today or not) |
| Posted by: Agent556 Aug 2 2011, 06:24 PM |
| Go on Friday nights or Thursday nights. Actually I'm just saying that because I'm sick today, haha |
| Posted by: Orisue Aug 2 2011, 08:37 PM |
| yeah i didnt go haha, |
| Posted by: Pikachu_Fragger Aug 2 2011, 10:19 PM |
| So Rudy, I'm now 3'33"7something on Akina DH and currently 4th in the TA ranking when I last left. Is this bad? |
| Posted by: Orisue Aug 3 2011, 12:25 PM |
| @Pikachu 3'33"7 isn't all that bad. I don't think I could personally do better on 6. |
| Posted by: Agent556 Aug 3 2011, 10:28 PM |
| by Akina DH, you meant Akina Snow DH, right? just saw a record 3'33"7xx on akina snow today, didnt see anything like that for akina dh |

| Posted by: Exile Aug 7 2011, 07:03 PM |

| Posted by: Agent556 Aug 7 2011, 07:10 PM |
| nope, not a software upgrade. judging from how sega's named their patches, all the 1.1 +X patches are all unlocks from the original 1.1 patch. +A and +B had codes that we just had to input on the machines to unlock. |
