New ZICO Challenge

[JFthebestJan]

@ phaeton_pl / XBARNSTERX: i want to make a video of me doing the ZICO-thing (and all BRs i know), but the problem is, i haven't any camera or camcorder to do it . i have an old VHS-recorder with very poor quality, but i dont know how to get it on a PC to convert it into something usefull. any tips, no?

So many people make requests for how-to info on making in-game videos that we should start a thread for this if there isn't one already. It's way too early in the morning for my brain to be functioning, so I don't know if there is one. So I'll stArt one!

edit: Okay, I've started one here: http://wipeoutzone.com/forum/showthr...129#post147129

finally i got ZICO with my first lap in TimeTrial. 30.77 - ICARAS (black/red/HD) - !6BarrelRolls! - 9SideShifts - 14SpeedPads - Perfect Lap. says: "WARNING" - "WARNING" - "WARNING". now i will shock u guys! i believe a 29.9x is possible (min.8BRs required/i think max.9,maybe 10BRs re possible in the first lap).

[XBARNSTERX]

nice JF mate congrats i wouldn't mind seeing how much you could knock off your time trial. 3 perfects laps with all those barrels would be something

[JFthebestJan]

thx friend . the leaderboards for SL and TT doesn't update atm , i already got a 1.31.75 in TT. 1.30.XX is 100% doable, not sure, but 1.29.9X could be possible too.

[phaeton_pl]

Crazy stuff JF!
I want to see it so badly. Please, use your VHS and post me a tape, use webcam or mobile phone camera or anything. Upload your ghost maybe or describe where those BR locations are.
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE!

1.29.xx in TT? Madness, but i will give it a try

[Connavar]

Even without the BSB, with the double BR on the bridge (or triple), a sub 28 is
now possible! (I did 28.86 without BSB and while missing 2 other BR).

phaeton, here are 2 BR that you can add: possible to double the BR after the
initial boost, and possible to double the BR after the bridge.

There are other possible BRs (4) but then you need to boost before the tunnel.

[phaeton_pl]

Thx Connavar, I got the point I pulled off some of them before.

It works fine on AP reverse too (long straight section when most players boost, last right hander, and few other places).

[JFthebestJan]

standard SL / ZICO lap: 27.91 - ICARAS/HD - 11 SPs - 9 SSs - 8 BRs - perfect lap. 27.5 is possible! maybe 26.9

[shapealot]

[fragje]

[il_mago_di_Doz]

I really need to see that video! That time is insane OMG!

[Aeroracer]

@jfthebestjan.....veeeerrrrrry fast..dont think zico will be in a rush to make a new challenge after what you did to his old challenge

[MetaKraken]

Zico is completely unstoppable and impossible to beat. My time is 30.97 and is nowhere as close to beating Zico. Not even my Piranha Fury can beat the impossible-to-beat Zico, so I might as well submit defeat .

i felt the same for about 2 weeks. ~50laps per day without any improvement. watch some more moveis about it, try improve your racing line and you"ll get there eventually!
dont give up

I did. I watched countless YouTube videos about beating Zico. I tried matching their techniques, but it did'nt helped me beating Zico. That last turn on anulpha Pass is luck-based, whether you land a Barrel Roll or not; that's what gets me intimidated.
