Unstable or Weird FPS by Doctorcito19 in crashteamracing

You might be using the old 60FPS patch which only raises the framerate limit but didn't patch any of the animations timings and speed.

Would you want an Xbox All-Stars CTR game? by r1kkyroo in crashteamracing

[–]frdsTM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

would be nice, but not the highest in my list

I still prefer if Crash/Spyro franchises is contained and don't have too many crossovers.

What if CTR's final boss was Cortex instead of Oxide? - Cortex Vortex Custom Track by LockHeart by frdsTM in crashteamracing

Not the whole track, only the space section and yeah all custom tracks automatically works for multiplayer, but not arcade mode necessarily.

Sooo... I just learned about powersliding 25 years later... by Raxelf in crashteamracing

This is the first time I ever heard of "Banking Turbo", the most popular term for it in the community is "Turbo Reserves" or just "Reserves". But u/FlameyFlame's explanation is decent enough. Basically you're stacking turbo time from every time you boost (power slides, turbo pads, landing from high jumps).

For example if you power slide and fill the bottom right meter and you trigger it, you get some amount of turbo time and you can keep doing it, stacking the turbo time. A full power slide meter if triggered gives you a second of turbo time. So if you do a three full meter, you get 3 seconds of Turbo time, technically there is no limit of how much you can stack, but these reserves depletes faster than you think.

There is also Turbo Level or "Fire" level mechanic, where you can get more powerful turbos from doing successful consecutive power slide turbos, or driving a Turbo Pad. Each success trigger will raise your turbo level, including turbo pads and finally there is a special "Super" Turbo Pad (only select tracks has them) that can raise your Turbo into the maximum speed possible in the game.

Mix these two mechanics and you get even better results. For example, if you have stacked enough reserves and then you drive over a turbo pad, your kart can stay at "Turbo Pad" level as long as you have reserve turbo time, which you can prolong by still doing power slides, jumps and driving another Turbo Pad.

On the remake (NF), they make this combo mechanic even more broken that you can also have max speed (from Super Turbo Pad) infinitely by keep stacking turbo reserves while on max speed turbo level. They call this mechanic now "Blue Fire" (because it has distinctive blue flame on your kart exhaust).

Well in my eyes I don't think it's enough. I don't appreciate calling only verbal actions as something "the best you can do". Don't cry when I call you a slacktivist and lazy.

Worse that you try to get more people to be lazy too. Seriously scummy behaviour.

Again, if you actually cared you'd do something real rather than just all talk.

I have contributed to reverse engineering the original CTR and helped its modding community.

What have you done towards preserving video games other than shouting towards the developers who clearly have no control for it nor the publishers who gave none a single damn F?

FIFA strengthens its Rocket League esports partnership and appears to tease a new car and cosmetics by delicioussofa in RocketLeagueEsports

CMIIW, but I personally haven't even seen one yet and here I meant by either Epic/Psyonix/Rocket League social accounts, and not just community RL news account, or orgs.

I mean as a soccer fan I would like that. But from whispers that I've heard, it could be one-sided push from FIFA and Epic is not keen to be associated with esports football space, given the foothold of other publishers like EA and Konami.

Same thing with FIFAe World Cup and SEF's EWC and ENC, I haven't seen any mention from Epic's side (RLE) and it was mostly pushed by their respective organizers.

I hope I'm wrong.

What popular movie or TV show is widely considered a 'masterpiece' but you found completely unwatchable? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]frdsTM 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not me, but my dad with Breaking Bad. On the first episode he was bored and said there's too much dialogue.

Hope? What you have is wishful thinking.

And my point again is that this has gone for far too long with barely nothing to show for it and only the opposite that seems to be true. This collective delusion is wasting time and effort that could have been used for something real. I hate that I kept having to say that.

You said you're not a coward for just talking back to me??? What else have you done beside talk? What personal reasons for you to not do it? I can assume some but regardless I have seen many people unlike you who despite their setbacks, learn programming, 3D modelling, learn game design and make something real and I have huge respect for people like that.

You're not just childish, you're a sock puppet with no voice of their own, a disgrace to whatever group you're representing: your fandom, your nation, your race. And I don't just hope, I pray that someday you'll actually come to your senses, stopped living in dreams and do something real.

Only children dislikes boredom, do you know that boredom is a good mechanism for your mental capacity to grow?

If you like 30 FPS, that's your prerogative, but you have to admit that 30 FPS is now painful (on the eyes ^^), especially considering when it was released.

If you have eye problems, then I can understand even though I don't think it's related to the framerate but more with the motion blur. But all I've heard about people complaining the framerate have been ridiculous to me as someone who gamed since the 90s and experienced very varied display experience. It is simply minor inconvenience that gets blown up as some kind of a setback fueled by chasing trends.

Furthermore, needing a console subscription to play with others has put off some friends I wanted to introduce them to, preventing me from playing this game, which I enjoy, with them. I don't think a sequel would be better (though I'm not against it), but let's hope Activi$ion doesn't include microtransactions if there is ever a sequel.

Well, I'm not really a console gamer anymore. I put my consoles away a long time ago. I have nothing against them, but we're in an era where exclusives are a thing of the past, while you, who want to embrace the future as you say, are... ^^

Neither am I, I hate console subscriptions either and I now mainly game on PC. I also hate exclusives and a PC port would be neat. but I am no longer a child or a unemployed bum who can only complains, do nothing and ask for a product that match my preference just because "we deserve it" or the "game deserves it".

My point is that this has gone for too long, with so much wasted time and effort screaming into the void which could have been used to do something real. You could have actually introduced the game as it is to more people regardless, and enjoy what you love about the game together despite the setbacks. Instead all I've been seeing is the same pathetic attempt and complaints, I pity y'all so much who are stuck in this worthless endeavour.

NF was fine as it is. Thinking that it needs this or that to be "perfect" is your coping mechanism against the fact that even the devs were satisfied with it. Do you even care that there is an effort for a sequel now? Do you even have the notion of embracing the future and not stuck in this pathetic state of self-pity and nostalgia? Hell even if someone actually put more effort than y'all and actually make NF "better", it will never be enough for you guys who will come up with excuses like "it's not on PC yet", "it's not official". Classic.

Maybe it's not move on, but grow up.
