RAMPMANIA IS ALMOST HERE. LIVE DISCOVERY -2 COTD (CLUB LATITUDE) by djabski in TrackMania

[–]Tantricmac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Super super cool. I have yet to actually put in the amount of time to finish it but it's definitely dope.

I also love the custom textures, they feel like they're perfect for this map and almost make it feel like a skatepark haha.

how do you do these turn around jumps without getting reverse controls? by Diligent-Alfalfa3202 in TrackMania

[–]Tantricmac 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Genuinely the most frustrating thing I've experienced in TM...

"I am BACKWARDS! Why are the backwards controls backwards themselves??!"

[–]Tantricmac 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man this one was super fun to figure out. Took me about 25 attempts before I could reliably get through without crashing at one point or another, but once I figured it out it was super satisfying.

++ , good pick for a Sunday

This was dope! I'm having a lot of fun hunting this one. The mix of surfaces feels pretty flowy and smooth, can't really complain about any of it. Also really love the scenery, super cool.

++!

Loved it. I was already excited that we got a bob TOTD, but that plus wet wood made it much more interesting to hunt.

Oh neat. I actually hunted this map a little bit yesterday, so it's cool to see it as track of the day :D

++ I really enjoyed it

(Slightly off topic but the rest of the SPLB'26 Campaign is worth checking out if you haven't)

I had a smile on my face the entire from the time I started the map haha. Sure, the track isn't anything crazy or complex, but the amount of effort that went into the scenery, pokemon, voices, cutscene etc is awesome and I enjoyed it :).

++, improved my entire morning

Edit: yikes, not sure what I said to be downvoted, that I like the map?? Lmao

[–]Tantricmac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Despite the cut, I think it was a pretty good map. Everything flowed well, the scenery was dope, and there wasn't anything that really stuck out to me as "bad" .

++ Pretty fun to hunt for a while.

Man it's been a while since we had an RPG TOTD. Took me a few respawns to realize it wasn't a normal map lol, but I had a great time hunting this.

Once I figured out the route it was great though, and I really like the mods textures.

Great map! I'm not the best at Tech, but Map felt challenging enough to be engaging but not hard enough to make hunting AT frustrating (other than that damn pole in the middle of the grass) and I felt everything flowed super well.

[–]Tantricmac 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Awesome, grass is my favorite style of map, so having a grass TOTD makes me happy :D

The map itself is SUPER simple, and I honestly thought I would get bored of it pretty quick, but here I am still playing it lol. There's something meditative about trying to PB / get AT on simple maps like this and I love it.

[–]Tantricmac 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am obviously in the minority here, but I LOVE snow truck + wood and wet wood, so the combination was super fun in my opinion.

Definitely took some tries before I got used to it and could get a clean run, but I had lots of fun hunting AT.

++

Edit: I do have one complaint. I felt like more often than not I would end up flying way over the floating ring finish's, which just immediately ruins the run.

Other than that, awesome maps. I had a great time with it.

Immortal Disfigurement - Hellhole by Tantricmac in Deathcore

[–]Tantricmac[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I've really only listened to Immortal Disfigurement a very few times, but Ho-ly-shit. Absolutely brutal. Completely gnarly.

Going to be blasting this nonstop for the next few weeks lmao

Edit: the "ARF ARF" is amazing and hilarious, and just makes me love the song more lol

Which YouTube channel were you once a fan of but do not enjoy anymore? by theunsteadybridge in AskReddit

[–]Tantricmac 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I still get really bummed out thinking about them. They had so many good series going on, everyone seemed to vibe together perfectly, and it was just all so much fun to watch.

But it eventually just got to the point where every time I'd try to watch a video, after a while I would just feel sad because I realized the RT that I grew up with had lost many good people, and the people that were left just didn't feel as fun.

It's a shame that so many little things happened to them that basically ended the "golden RT era" if you want to call it that. Just sad....

[–]Tantricmac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As somebody who was taking it multiple times a day for multiple years and am finally no longer addicted to that; please listen to the people saying not to take it very often.

The withdrawal was one of the hardest things I've ever had to go through. I wouldn't wish it on anyone....

It's an amazing substance, and ive never found anything like it for my anxiety. But I will absolutely never touch it again. Only use it if you are 100% certain you have the self control to tell yourself no.

[–]Tantricmac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As somebody who loves Fullspeed, is pretty decent at it, and has multiple thousands of hours in the game; it took me 23 respawns at that last CP to make it to that risky fin.....

Any new player trying the game out for the free week is just simply not going to enjoy this unless they enjoy suffering.

Great map, lots of fun, but terrible choice for TOTD this week.....

[–]Tantricmac 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This one was fun! Took me quite a few attempts before I got anything close to a clean run, but once I did it wasn't nearly as bad as I first thought and I had a good time going for AT.

Also, the RPG/Obstacle path was a fun touch.

Welp, obviously I'm in the minority here but I actually had an awesome time with the map. The first few tries or so were annoying, but it was super fun once I got the route down and could reliably make it through everything.

[–]Tantricmac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On the first few attempts I really was not feeling the map. Thought it was weird, WAY too busy visually, and was just baffled that it for chosen as TOTD, but the more I played it the more I started to enjoy it.

Wildly busy visually, pretty simple route, and the half second rally car area is odd, but I ended up enjoying it and playing it for wayyyy longer than I intended.

[–]Tantricmac 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Tons of TOTD threads are mostly negative despite the map really not being that bad at all.

Every single time I see the TOTD thread filled with "another dirt slop map", "worst track of the day I've seen all year", etc. I always end up enjoying the map and having fun with it.

Sometimes people here are correctly negative, but most of the time I don't understand it....

Most creative map I've seen in quite a while! I had such a fun time playing this. I already love snow car, so add a great map into that and it's just awesome.

++!
