Question about Zone races

[Stew2000]

Is it possible to complete a Zone race without destroying your ship?

[Hellfire_WZ]

Nope, laps are infinite. It only ends once your craft is destroyed

[jacen]

i don't wanna hijack the thread, but how exactly do you advance through the zones? by staying some time above a certain speed threshold? or by racing a given distance?

do the speedpads have an influence on how fast you complete your current zone?

[Stew2000]

From my experience all you have to do is stay alive for as long as possible.

[Hellfire_WZ]

Zones go up every 10 seconds. Speed pads give you extra points and help you complete a lap faster before the speed gets up.

[jacen]

but laps don't matter ****, right?

[Hellfire_WZ]

Only for score and loyalty points. If you're only going for a medal, then no.

[jacen]

don't you only get loyalty for completed/perfect zones?

[Hellfire_WZ]

You get loyalty points for zones, perfect zones, laps and perfect laps

[jacen]

ah .. thx
should pay better attention when they display your loyalty points after a race ^^

I wish Vertica had a zone.

[Neverdown]

If Metropia would have a zone, it wouls be really easy to get those loyality points.
