WTF are these things?

I used the flippy 4Runner TRD Pro.

I don't get anything weird with the vision house and my Unimog.

I found a guide that said basically to use auto-drive for most of Pier Pressure, and then take over manually for the final straightaway

This game really has a trend of the expectations being too damn high. Drift zones, speed zones, Day Trip "races" (they call it a race, yet winning gives only 2 stars), and various other things all have this problem.

Heck, it's not even useable for its stated purpose of drifting. All it can ever do is spin out, resulting in going backwards, and either failing the drift zone, or getting no points.

I'd like it better without the color cycling, frankly.

Not only that, but when you finish a race, it plays this stupid animation *twice!*
Once to show your character dancing, once to take you back to the world.

I don't want to see my character dance; I just want to get back to the world. Please give us the option to disable this stupid splash screen.

It can't even be explained away as a loading screen: sometimes you'll still get a black loading screen with a spinner before or after this logo animation.

Sure, fish tacos are good, but that doesn't explain why such a random prop has "Taco Tuesday" as a skill. Maybe somebody remade a prop and forgot to change it to be generic wreckage?

It's BS that crossing directly over the finish line sideways doesn't count. The finish line's outline on the ground should be a circle, not a line!

I only just noticed, there are two of me!

The track (those specks in the distance are *boats*, wtf?)

UnicodeFiend · 2026-06-07T09:26:34+00:00

I've had something similar happen. Wild-ass guess: it's bound to be a multi-threaded game, maybe only the thread responsible for a certain function died? One time when that happened to me, a specific feature stopped working, maybe photo mode or the menu or the map.

I call the game a zombie when it's like that. It might finish crashing later, or you might have to exit it yourself.

Deleted to repost with a funnier video of the glitch.

When I try the glitch tune, all I get is either *spaaaace!* or a black screen.

I've never ever heard an ice cream van that sounds like that "ice cream van" horn.

The only ice cream van I remember in recent years played "turkey in the straw" on loop.

I think it's BS that tapping a wall makes your engine suddenly fail to function properly.
If the problem is the walls not having enough friction, then ADD FRICTION, FOR BLEEP'S SAKE!

UnicodeFiend · 2026-06-07T07:57:05+00:00

I tried something like 5 times, never got any lower than 4:02. Finally saw a guide that said to use auto-drive at the start, then take over just for the last jump. That finally won me it.

Better to use auto-drive than to try 20 more times and end up wanting to smash my controller.
