Beating the Master Difficulty
« Thread started on: Jul 10th, 2003, 1:32pm »

Hey, I don't play my FZX too much (as you can see by my ranking, i think it is 74th or somethin) Anyway, I haven't beaten any of the cups on the master difficulty, and I can't seem to do it. I have trouble doing any sliding techniques during a GP race, and I need my grip. I either use Hyper Speeder or the Deep Claw, and I have gotten pretty close to beating the King cup. My technique is go through the first track, then kill all of the leaders on the next track, then go on just killing everyone. One problem though, I normally am at GameOver by the fourth or fifth track. Any techniques you think will help me? I really don't like being 16th out of 16 on the Universal ranking page, and I only seem to be good at the older games, or the ones that use a directional pad. I need to get good at the joystick soon because of GX, so any help would be apperciated. Sorry if this is not to the point, doesn't make sense, or doesn't clearly address what I want. Any help is greatly apperciated. Thanks!!!

I think you should not really bother about sliding until you have beaten all cups on master. Well at the time I was battling the GP race, I just tried to get as high a placing as possible on each track, no strats about killing other cars and such. Just do your best with, lets say hyper speeder seems good, with the setting two stripes from max accel. Remember to not use the sharp turn, use jumping instead, you know the side attack thingy. If you're lucky you wont have to finish 1st even once, if you're good overall.

You dont need any strat at all such as sliding or any other technique such as special diving. When you get the hang of it it's quite easy to finish 1st everytime with standard driving.

Alright, I'm doin a lot better now not trying to kill all the leaders, although I do kill my rival if he (or she) is right next to me. However, on the Jack Cup, it is near impossible!!! I guess it is because the tracks are pretty straightforward, no harsh turns or jumps like in the other cups, so is there a certian car or setting that I need to use. Instead of using the DeepClaw, im pretty much only using Hyper Speeder, and then some experiments. Do I need to kick in the sliding after I master it on the cup? Any help agian is still greatly apperciated, i dont know about tomorrow though Any way, with JKT strategies it seems like he would kill the comps. on any mode, so should I try to copy him?

I know I should just use the update thing, but each post is on the same subject but a lot different than the last. Alright, I played FZX all night tonight, probably about 7 or 8 hours worth, and I have beaten all of the cups, Yay! Not so much yay though because I always placed second damn it. This sucks!!! I will probably go to sleep all of today, which completly messes up my plans. I gotta do the SA/C tourney, and I need to re-earn all of my times, because after playing once through again, all of my current times suck. I beat a couple of nick's times, which is good, but now I got to sleep so I can't get the stupid 3rd backround on FZX, or beat all of nick's times. Ahh, stupid sleeping habit!

May be a bad habit, but it IS required to stay healthy. LOL Trust me.

Congrats on even getting Second. I'm still working on getting past 5th place on the Jack Cup, Master Diff.

I play when I can, but with other commitments running around(Work, Beacon Port II{Current project is Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne Expansion} as well as a few others), I have to kinda work some F-Zero in now and again.

Best of luck in your quest for the Top Spot in the GP!

Just kidding about the sleep thing I'm quite concerned with getting enough sleep as I feel much better then...

TFT rules! got it on release, and I must say it feels much better than original WC3. Faster and more intense gameplay, like starcraft: brood war.

Did you follow the ESWC in France wich just ended? Sweden snatched 2 gold medals and 6 in all, closest behind was Germany with two gold medals (nothing else) and USA with two silver and one bronse. WC3 was the best since two swedes started on one side each of the brackets and ended up facing each other in the finals! I really enjoyed madfrogs UD play vs all those humans...

1st place in WC3 was 7000$ and second 5000$, if they had F-zero tournaments with that kind of money, I'd be better than JKT in no time!

If there were tournaments hehe you'll be playing like mad so you'll get good in no time, but it doesn't mean you're the only one doing that.
If there is a tournament i'll definitely be there to give you hell thats for sure.
Nothing left to say but to practice all day everyday until you're sick of it thats the only way to smash this JKT
