Most Wanted TT Competition [MW2012 Event of the Week]

[Spoil-t]

Damn COD double XP. I want to NFS but can't.

 

[Bacon]

This year is the only year so far where I will say the new NFS game is better than the new COD.

Thought I would quickly hop on and set a time for the new event. 1:06.58 BAC Mono (TT, BN, LC, AB, LG).

Thank you for taking the liberty of setting a benchmark for us.

Did the game freeze at the point right before you rejoin the highway? It did for me several times and caused me to wreck which pissed me off a little.

Hah, you're talking about when the game doesn't load that part of the map and you run into it, right?

Didn't happen for me since the Tesla wasn't going fast enough. If it was a much faster car, it would've happened for me.



Hyland, don't take the alley. You require to lose too much momentum just for a small distance cut. You also can't take that ramp - despite how the flow dictates how it's faster going that way, because you smash into the bridge lol.

 

[Spoil-t]

1:04.46 - BAC Mono (TTP, BNP, LCP, AB, LGP)

Don't even try this if you ain't proing you mods Bacon. You have no chance if you don't. Anyway, Mono rapes at drifting super fast & super close to the apex but the Ariel does 180+ w/o nitrous so we'll see... time to pro it just in case. Funny, when you compare the two cars the Mono says to have a higher top speed.

Wierd. For my part, the game was constantly struggling to load the map. It was either just right on time or resulted in a hiccup and a crash.

Yeah, I noticed that on my second attempt through the alley 💡

 

[Bacon]

1:04.35 BAC Mono (TT, BN, LC, AB, LGP).

 

[Spoil-t]

Just think how much faster that would of been with BNP. It's easy to grind for it by just jumping the arch at the park & holding the button down while in the air.

 

[MXH]

Does the Caterham stand a chance in this weeks' event?

 

[Spoil-t]

Hell to the no, sadly. It barely does over 170MPH while the other two can hit 180MPH. Plus it's acceleration is worst.

 

[Bacon]

1:03.78 BAC Mono (TTP, BNP, LC, AB, LGP).

Yeah that's the only thing the BAC has over the Ariel.

Damn. Hopefully it will come handy another time. The BAC mono it is then.

 

[Spoil-t]

Yeah that's the only thing the BAC has over the Ariel.

The Ariel actually does a couple miles over 180 while the Mono does 180 with nitrous assist. Why I put the lol emote there...

 

[Nick Skyline]

1:03.48 (Ariel Atom 500 V8, TTP, BNP, LCP, AB, LGP) <-- Submission

Personally, I'd go with the Ariel for this one, because I noticed that when nitrous-assisted, it's slightly faster and has better acceleration than the BAC.

Also...
1:08.35 (Caterham Superlight R500, TT, BN, LC, AB, LGP)

Come on, it's not that bad.

 

[Spoil-t]

A 2 second difference in racing is horrible & since someone used the "better" car guess I'll have to also.

 

[AOS-]

since someone used the "better" car guess I'll have to also.

So petty of you.

If I can find some time later this week, I'll see how far I can get with the BAC.

 

[Spoil-t]

I think speed drained it's potential pretty well. I wouldn't bother.

 

[Bacon]

1:01.63 Ariel Atom 500 V8 (TTP, BN, LC, AB, LGP).

 

[Spoil-t]

speed you sneaky sneaky bastardy

1:01.61 - Ariel Atom 500 V8 (TTP, BNP, LCP, ABP, LGP).

 

[Nick Skyline]

1:02.20 - Ariel Atom 500 V8 (TTP, BNP, LCP, AB, LGP)

 

[MXH]

Well the Ariel is obviosuly faster so screw the BAC.

Ariel Atom 500 V8 - 1:03.21 (TTP, BNP, LCP, ABP, LGP)

Edit : Has anybody else come across this weird bug where you crash right at the beginning of the race?

Many times. It's infuriating.

[Nick Skyline]

this weird bug where you crash right at the beginning of the race

I've come across that a few times myself. Maybe this should be addressed to EA (patch in a fix for this problem, maybe?).

 

[Bacon]

It happens when you crash during the event and retry it straight away. The game still thinks you are crashing, hence the reason why you crash at the beginning. At least that's my theory.

 

[Spoil-t]

Wrong dude. It happens if you don't skip the intro right away. If you wait to long the car smacks into cross traffic in the air when you skip. You must hit select as soon as the intro starts or you'll crash.

 

[Bacon]

I've watched the intro several times to see if that was it and nothing happened. It happens every time after I crash in the event so I assumed it was that.

 

[Spoil-t]

It never crashed if I crashed before a restart. It always happens 2 to 5 seconds into an intro skip. Either skip it right away or watch the whole intro.

EDIT: 1:01.16 - Ariel Atom 500 V8 (TTP, BNP/PNP, LCP, ABP, LGP)

Powershot works well for the first half of the race

 

[Bacon]

1:01.11 Ariel Atom 500 V8 (TTP, PN/BNP, LCP, ABP, LGP).

Edit: 1:00.93 Ariel Atom 500 V8 (TTP, PNP/BNP, LCP, ABP, LGP).

 

[Spoil-t]

Come on man you're making me work for it.

Just to make his & my life harder we are both cutting thru the ship yard. They allow us to go thru there without getting a checkpoint miss.

 

[MXH]

Either skip it right away or watch the whole intro.

It happened three times in a row earlier. The fact that I skipped the intro immediately didn't matter. I assume it's random. Oh well, it's not a game breaker, just annoying.

Edit : Damn, you guys are fast. I really need to work on my time.
