Yesterday I was playing online with one of my friends.
We were racing on Sol 2 and he attacked me with a missile, I started to slide off the track slowly and as I had a boost I used this to try to stay on the track.
Well by the time I had pressed square the back end of my AG-Sys had slid off and the craft was pointing skyward. This meant insted of returning to the track I shot straight up in a vertical take off, passing through the clouds to blue sky on the other side, before returning to, and totally missing the track.
I lost the race but it was amazing! I was using skype to talk to my friend at the same time and he saw this all, said he just saw my shoot straight into the clouds!
Anyone else had something similar or something else unexpected happen to them?
Sounds brilliant, was you able to control the direction a little when you was coming back down again? Shame you was playing multiplayer since screen shots are not available
Yesterday, I fell straight through the middle of the track 5 times. I also scrapped a wall and found my entire craft stopped on a dime and jumped straight up while still sitting horizontally. I also got 10 shields in one race.
Ah Sol 2, when FrostE and I were playing on Sunday, I managed to launch off one of the feathered wings where the track is suspended... the weird thing was that I managed to do a barrel roll while resting ON the wing, and when the BR completed, it launched me skyward too
Well to take a picture you just have to reproduce the event offline. I'll see if I can, it would be a beauty to be able to see Sol 2 suspended in the air in it's entirety.
Ok good news, went to do speed laps at Sol 2 to attempt this again and it worked on the first lap. I have 4 photos of it that, once I work out how to upload to net, will post a link to!
Didn't take long too work out! This isn't quite as impressive as the first time but good nonetheless!
