yeldar, could you actually do that initial test with no barrel rolls, but use all your boosts. Boosts are the same for everyone, so we can see the difference. I bet there is only going to be a 4 second difference. Could you use the icarus like the one you did with the 25 barrel rolls and all the boosts?
Question to all great players in the know..
with barrel rolls..do all ships do the same length and spped when they turbo or barrel roll or are some ships more faster or better at these..
opps off topic..my moan today is......i hate it when my joypad dies
1.50.11 - 5x Boost (Same boost location) - 0x BR - Icaras
so every barrel roll is only giving you a .20 second advantage, not much, unless you do 25
The motion blur fools you into thinking it goes faster than what it is really doing. In pulse it REALLY mattered with the barrel rolls, extreme speed difference. Pulse was significant as well.
thanks for that test
weird, from my experiences in time trials on many tracks, a BR gives a .4 sec advantage and a speedpad around .2
this is what i found out in those boring 99 laps trainings
a BR gives 0.15 to 0.30 of advantage at phantom speed ! It depends if you go straight, turn, rise or descend !
must be much more on slower speeds
yeah I reckon a solid BR will give you around a second on Venom
There's some interesting stuff here, so if someone wants to make a new thread to discuss and test how much time things are worth in different modes then that would be best, as we're a way off-topic now.
Thanks.
