dash plates
« Thread started on: Aug 8th, 2003, 8:04pm »

I dunno if you know this but... if you pass on a dash plate by the left or the right extremity instead of passing right in the middle of it you get twice the normal boost.
one of the basic technics explained in famitsu and known by all jap TA players.

dakou is in famitsu too but it's different from what we call dakou. just drift turn in a chicane with E-grip machine.

Really ? didn't know that. Hadn't noticed it yet either.

Now I'll just have to start each track all over again

I always trust in nintendo. They're the better (gameplay is all in a videogame).
Since F-zero GX and its awful gameplay-bug, I got a big doubt.
I love Nintendo and Sega. Together, they've killed F-zero this time.
I could never say again : Nintendo hasn't missed a game because it happens.

That will make the difference in TA on tracks like Vegas Palace or Mute Oval ^^

DVM, you re the only one to have post times.
Did you use DAKOU? Flying techs?

It doesn't make THAT much diference.. only about 0.1 - 0.15 sec per plate.. Of course it all adds up in the end.

Right now I'm not using the snake technique in time trial. That 55 sec time in Mute City is a snake time but I asked Dave to replace it with the normal driving time of 1'01 with the next update.

The game is much more interesting without dakou. It's pretty much a noob skill with no respect whatsoever for eveything F-Zero stands for.

Yes, you right
Dakou sucks!
I unlocked now the last staff ghost, nice challenge unlock all TA Staff Ghosts WITHOUT dakou
The problem now is: beat the ghost...
The replay value of this game is really AWESOME

Hmm.. without special air moves, DTs and decent sliding physics it feels kinda limited to me.

Not quite FZX replayability if you ask me..

I don t use dakou too.
In my opinion any little 1/100 sec you can win aren t useless.
on vegas palace taking all the dash plates by the side made me win a lot a time.
I m fond of this new dash system. kind of combo to make...

Damn, staff ghost are hard to beat! (I love that kind of challenge)
I don t understand what is MC1 staff ghost race strategy.
He s he drifting just after finish line?
Anyway, TA is not useless for me.
Without dakou, you can easy reach speeds such 2000 kmh, that s quite fast and fun!
