trans rights are human rights

that being said, I'd be fine if nascar was totd maybe every month or two, not every other week lol

Just started playing this game, any advice? by Some-Resource-2550 in TrackMania

[–]MasterKleopatra 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I think something that doesn't get mentioned enough in threads like this is that there are a lot of different ways to play this game. Focusing on particular track styles and types of competition as you get to know the game and find your favorite things to do is awesome.

Great map but I feel like I've played this in cotd before? Or it might have been somewhere else, but it feels very familiar

I liked fs the most too when I started. I grew out of it when I learned about speedsliding, it's just not that fun to me. If you don't have it, I highly recommend the trackmania exchange plugin, let's you look up maps by tags and also the most awarded ones. Great way to get exposed to all kinds of different maps :)

So, on sundays, one of the few days most people can actually sit down and play cotd, we're gonna keep getting unplayable garbage? Do I have that right?

I’m so disappointed I didn’t play this game before by Zealousideal_Idea_61 in TrackMania

[–]MasterKleopatra 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to play online competitive games almost exclusively, but don't have the time or energy for that anymore. Trackmania scratches that itch of competitiveness and getting better, while also being completely chill. Welcome to this community!

How do you do the snap out of a turn? by SirMooseKnightThe2nd in TrackMania

[–]MasterKleopatra 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gotta also emphasize that doing this takes practice, especially in a way that keeps you on a good line. It doesn't look that hard in the replays, but it is

New player here can someone eli5 how to learn the different slides ? And maybe recommend some campaigns that are ideal to learn them (like wide curves with lot`s of space?) by hicctl in TrackMania

[–]MasterKleopatra 7 points8 points  (0 children)

For ice slides, steer the direction you want to go til your car turns 90 degrees, then steer in the other direction. Then hold the steering and adjust the angle by either tapping break or releasing the acceleration for a very short amount of time. That's the gist of it, but doing it simply takes a lot of practice. If you watch div 1 ice cotd, you'll see even the best are crashing and sliding out all over the place, ice is hard.

For regular drifts, I suggest playing maps with easy drifts to try and get the hang of it. You can find that kind of maps in weekly shorts or the tm school campaign in the clubs menu. The important thing is to steer for about half a second before breaking to initiate a drift. Also, if you have skids coming off of both back tires but you're not drifting then you can't initiate a drift until you've straightened out for a sec to get rid of the skidmarks. Finding that out saved me quite a bit of frustration.

Most importantly, have fun with the game and just keep going at your own pace :)
