Death Wind via Golden Fox
« Thread started on: Jul 4th, 2003, 12:02pm » |

Greet'ins folks,
Just a quick question: Is it physically possible to beat Death Wind I on MASTER with the Golden Fox? If so, is there some specific strategy (I'm think'in with a track that's a big "0", there can't be too much strategy involved) to at least making the top 3?
I'm finding it to be impossible.
Peace
Schmedric

Yes it is very possible. DW2 is much harder though and even it is possible. I have done them both and I am just the "Mute City Master" lol
You will need to get many bumps from the cars that will keep trying to pass you. Don't let them by under any circumstances.

Hey!
Thanks man...'preciate it. That's all I needed to know. Now I feel I have the confidence (though perhaps not the tolerance) to try again!
It seems I have much to learn...
Peace

Disagree Rich, as I can do DW2 pretty easily and I've never done DW1 but then I haven't tried much. I guess you have to just get lucky with the bumps because its inevitable the AI will catch you up cos the Fox is so slow.

Yeah...I frigg'in get anally pillaged every time, and in the GF getting bumped doesn't boost your speed like it does in the Stingray.
Guess I'll have to keep going...though the frustration level of this game...is...re-doggone-diculous.

You need to contact Top Speed for more info. He is should be of more help, as this was his favorite car for some time.

As Rich mentioned...the Golden Fox is my favorite car...that buggy look is just so...wow...
Anywho... I played many times Knight/Queen/King on master level with the Fox (until I understood the concept that Stingray = Best) and I managed to get a perfect winning streak every now and then.
I find DW1 harder than DW2, because in DW2, their are more corners and more arrows which to use to your advantage. The extra cornering is a great deal of help for the Fox, since that's the only place where you can definately beat a master level computer opponent.
As Rich mentioned...basically your best shot at getting a first place in DW1 is by getting continously bumbed. It will be frequent so just keep an eye on the "check" arrow and strafe in front of it as soon as possible. Also I don't recomend using the turbo on the dirt patches...instead save it, because eventually you'll need to use it around the lap in some point in case you have been passed instead of bumped. Take the corners sharply (obviously), but don't run through the rail, sense this car is too weak for such.
If you have anymore questions...just write 'em here.
