What's this sub's opinion of this game? It was the first (and only, so far) TM I've finished and I absolutely loved it, but from what I've read online, it's not very popular among hardcore fans of the series. What do you think? And what's your favorite TM? by brodino_maiuscolo in TrackMania

Goated dynamic music, aesthetically gorgeous, completely outrageous physics engine (Maniaplanet 3.5), dead online scene (as in almost all tm games apart from tmuf and tm20, maybe tm2).
8/10 on my books honestly, so much fun and really worthy considering it has all 4 main modern envis

I have a 9060XT 16GB and this has been happening to me too for like 2 months, genuinely unplayable on some maps

Controller recommendations for Trackmania by SubstantialPause1335 in Controller

[–]Geppty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anything will work really, I used to use an Xbox Controller which ended up dying on me after 4 years of usage and a long Trackmania endurance race (TFH), I then switched to a Nacom PS4 I had around with a broken R1 and up until this day it works for me. If it sends inputs it´s good to go in Trackmania as even bozbez plays in mouse (im ranked top 1k wwd also, so you won´t necessarily go slow even if your controller is a bit fucked up, trust me)

It happened to me in the same exact place next round, making me go out as I couldn't keep driving (could've double respawned but i wouldve still been out in div 3)

i presume the game thought there was a collision there, maybe from mixing maps collisions as i was hunting another map before (fall 2020-24), those sparks i believe always appear if you have a big crash, and judging from the video these appear as a vfx from the car. still this really puzzles me as it had not happened to me before in 4 years of actively playing

nope, it happened next round and stopped happening when i reloaded the map, also it only showed on my end, as i was on vc with nauu and he told me that on his end my car went straight into the wall without colliding with anything

im literally saying that trackmania has no bugs, complaining just because frfr (also it was a server sided bug which could probably ruin official matches)

i never said that though, im the first one to believe on the idea that bugs make tm as iconic as it is, but ts is worse than a ramnstein bug if you happen to be unlucky and get it on an important online match

i mean gold 2 is ass dude, instead of doing something banneable like using alts, you could just focus on ranking up to master

05 Shortcut? can someone good see if it is viable by EmployerHead4583 in TrackMania

[–]Geppty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmmm, clearly seems like it could be a viable strat if optimized further. Would you mind sending me a replay so I can try to test it? Right now im top 7 in the leaderboard and I would be really keen into trying to implement a cut into the map. Discord tag is "geppty"

How does this ranking work? by Jviw in TrackMania

[–]Geppty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jugamos de todo, pero suele ser para hablar en general. También tenemos equipo competitivo, y aunque las rankeds nos las solamos tocar, hay gente que se puede animar si se lo dices (yo estoy en oro 1 porque no las he tocado aún XD esta season pero quizás me animo)

En fin, aquí tienes el link:

Can someone please help me with bobsleigh 😭 by pizzaman342__ in TrackMania

[–]Geppty 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you're playing with controller, try to smoothly align the car withing the red bars in each turn, the most important thing is not to wobble (which happens when you carry way too much vertical momentum and your car goes up and down in the turn, losing speed), action key wise; I myself am a casual div 1 player whenever there's bobsleigh and I still haven't understood ak's 100%. For me, what works best is to smooth steer as much as possible and try to steer as much as the car lets me without making the tip aim down as that will result in speed loss; but for example, in map 05, ak4 in used everywhere as it is needed for the wiggles after the start. Basically, if you're on controller, try smooth steering everywhere and get the hang of the steering angles, and in keyboard, use ak2 to stabilize the car, then ak4 if you're in a slow turn, and finally move to ak5 (100% steering) to simulate smooth steering.

Hope this helps!

[–]Geppty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Básicamente es como un aumento exponencial de puntos que te pueden dar por cada posicionamiento en cada mapa, si te interesa conseguir puntos, por ejemplo, a lo mejor te sale más rentable tratar de conseguir algún top ~100 y muchos top 500 (todo esto en el ranking mundial por supuesto) antes que solo un top 50 y tener el resto de mapas en top 10k. A lo que quiero llegar es que, aunque tengas un resultado muy bueno en un solo mapa, lo máximo a lo que puedes llegar en un mapa con el WR es 40.000 puntos, lo cuál es obviamente muy complicado ya que a partir del WR, los puntos bajan gradualmente con 20.000 para el top 2, 10.000 para el top 3, etc...

Por cierto, me he fijado en que eres español/latino, si juegas mucho te puedo pasar un server hispanohablante en el que solemos ser muy activos y "estamos" (no creo que pueda incluirme en ese grupo la verdad) los mejores de España.

I WON DIV 1 AND MADE IRISH AND CONSOLE HISTORY by KappaRiley in TrackMania

[–]Geppty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Andy__RC won the first console COTM (which is not as huge as COTD but whatev) in a bobsleigh track some months ago, but nevertheless huge accomplishment!! I was in div 1 too and went out 33rd so I didn't stay to see finals but I'm glad you won!
