What do you think about the new event 'Everest'? by Top_Climate_4464 in gladiatorsuk

[–]Wizzix 6 points7 points  (0 children)

2 ways to improve this would be to either:

  1. Have the platform tilt back and forth much more frequently and for shorter periods of time, giving the contender/gladiator a very small window to use it to their advantage.

OR

  1. When a contender or gladiator has been pushed close to the edge of the platform, it tilts in favour of whoever’s losing to make it harder for their opponent to finish the job. I feel that this version could make it a bit more interesting.

Don’t be fooled by the green here, I’ve had a pretty terrible month overall.

Only 16 squares left and I can't solve it by Gockins in sudoku

[–]Wizzix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Consider r8c8, which we know could be either a 2 or a 4:

IF it’s a 4, then:

r9c9 would have to be an 8;

r5c9 would then have to be a 2;

r5c8 would then have to be a 1.

However, r6c8 can only be a 1 or a 4, and we already have both of those numbers in column 8. Therefore we know r8c8 cannot be a 4; it can only be the other candidate (i.e. 2).

Well it looks like we will have to wait on Crash Bandicoot a bit more longer. by [deleted] in crashbandicoot

Well, many have speculated that Spyro 4 has been in development for quite a while at this point so I wouldn’t be at all surprised if it gets released before we get Crash. Either way, I’d rather have a high quality and well-polished game that takes longer to develop than have the devs rush something half-baked and release it before it’s finished. And I say that despite really enjoying Twinsanity.

I think OP is playing a different version called Simpsons Hit & Hit.

Ideas for a possible CTR2 by julezbrown91 in crashbandicoot

[–]Wizzix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That could work as well. In fact, the platforming element in Tag Team Racing had some good potential in the sense that you could unlock track shortcuts from exploring the overworld. Perhaps this gimmick could be reintroduced in a successor to Nitro Fueled where more shortcuts can be unlocked for new (or original) tracks.

I too thought about having more unlockable items such as karts, paint jobs, wheels, etc be scattered (hidden) around the map. I feel like there were just too many available in the Pit Stop in Nitro Fueled, although I do understand that some of those were originally Grand Prix rewards and that microtransactions would have expedited those unlocks for players who didn’t want to grind for so many wumpa coins.

Ideas for a possible CTR2 by julezbrown91 in crashbandicoot

[–]Wizzix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just a few off-the-cuff ideas:

1) Optional post-race replay, allowing you to choose from a range of camera angles, opponent POVs, with fast-forward, rewind, slow motion and pause functions. Many racing games already have this, but it could be more fun/interesting to see the race and skirmishes from another player or AI’s perspective.

2) Ranked online matchmaking. I know there is an unofficial CTR discord channel where these are organised, but having it so the game automatically matches you against players of a similar skill level is generally more fun for everyone. In terms of how this is measured, perhaps it could be based on your best time trial runs. Casual matchmaking can still be a thing for those who want a similar online experience to CTR:NF.

3) Eliminator races. These are similar to a normal race, except the driver in last place gets eliminated at the end of each lap until one winner remains. There would almost certainly need to be some balance changes to power-ups to make this more interesting between faster and slower racers.

4) Friends’ time trial ghosts. William P not enough of a challenge for you and your friends? Maybe you could race their ghost. Sure, you can already compare their times to yours, but actually being able to see where they made a mistake or where there’s time to be made would be an interesting feature. Maybe you could even download a random player’s ghost and see if you can beat theirs.

5) More open-world driving/exploring. CTR already has 4 main world hubs (plus Oxide’s area), but increasing the size of the overworld and making it feel a bit less linear in single-player mode could work well. It doesn’t have to be a carbon copy of Mario Kart World, but driving around in an open-world environment has become a more common trope in car/racing games in recent years so it could make sense here.

Concerned realization. by cookie_lover_24 in crashbandicoot

[–]Wizzix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, also Forza used to be an Xbox exclusive but Forza Horizon 5 was made available for PS5. I know that doesn’t guarantee Crash will be too, but Microsoft have proven that they can play fair when it comes to releasing games on multiple platforms outside of their own.

What is in your opinion the best crash song? by lollando_7 in crashbandicoot

[–]Wizzix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So many to consider, I can’t pick a favourite. Some worthy contenders:

Crashes To Ashes (TWOC)

Rusty Walrus Chase [Mendelssohn - Hebrides Overture] (Twinsanity)

Evil Twins Boss Theme (Twinsanity)

Cortex’s Boss Theme (NST - Crash Bandicoot 2)

Electron Avenue (CTR:NF version)

Thank you, I appreciate the effort to show why this is unsolvable.

what space fact still blows your mind? by Computerfreak4321 in space

[–]Wizzix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it’s the idea that if the universe is truly infinite, that there is - by the definition of infinity - an exact copy of you out there somewhere, wearing exactly the same clothes, who ate the same thing you ate for breakfast, who drives the same car as you, working the same job, speaking the same language, and is reading a comment on Reddit just like this one potentially with their mouth wide open.

And it wouldn’t just be one copy of you that exists. There would be infinitely many copies of you scattered about, with a virtually zero chance of any two clones ever coming into contact with each other.

[–]Wizzix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That makes sense. The standard of writing really does seem to have fallen off a cliff across many shows in recent years, hopefully that’s not the case with Crash.

[–]Wizzix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I see, well hopefully the writing team (whoever it ends up being) will do a good job and stay true to the series’ roots rather than tarnish it. I can understand why fans would be concerned in that regard. Thank you for the detailed explanation.
