I will, you broke 72 yet m8?

[TearsToShreds]

YES, Zone 76!!!!! Got so excited that I screwed up straight away. Phew.

[T_Scarface_M]

wow, well done mate. Big Congratulations.

[eLhabib]

Hot damn, I finally got the Airbraker Trophy - crashed as soon as I saw the Trophy Message I don't know, I get really nervous once my shield drops under 40%, and then I just mess up. Zone Zeus is still a loooong way off for me, I'm just pinballing after the first bend on everything above 60...

[PFC_Piranha]

Congrats m8. I tried last night (the proper way lol) and got to zone 38

I think it's going to take a while....

[bakkufu]

Thats exactly what I did! Except I was faster 5 Rolls, count 'em

I can't seem to get the roll onto the shortcut right, I either miss the side of the track ( lets face it, LRL or RLR while trying to hit a thin strip of track is always going to be like having the off button for your computer at the bottom of the toaster ) or i get the energy deducted, but no roll

[eLhabib]

Same here. I wish I could do the BR by pressing the left and right airbrakes in sequence - that would also cancel out the stupid occasions where I just wanna correct my line of flight a little, and all of a sudden I pop out a BR when I don't want to.

[Rubix42]

The way I got it that finally worked consistently for me was to go from the inside bottom of the corner to the very furthest right of the track, almost touching.

Nose up just before you launch for hang time and squeek the BR quickly.

I am so happy I finished that and don't have to deal with it anymore. I am not a fan of Venom.

This was asked earlier by someone else but not answered... Do the elite golds accumulated in the race campaign go towards the total required for the arcade perfect trophy? I got elite gold race campaign last night and i'm doing the reverse tracks in racebox now, it doesn't really indicate in the racebox screen whether or not the golds from campaign count or not. it has your best time but that's it. it doesn't even mention that you came first in the campaign, a bit annoying.

(OT: this is only my second post here, i'm new... nice to meet you all)

[eLhabib]

Campaign golds do NOT count towards Arcade Perfect. As the Trophy name suggests, you have to do them all in Arcade (read: Racebox) mode.

[trk_rkd]

Thanks elhabib... what does that name mean anyway? is it like habibi, darling?

On a related note: DAMN the reverse courses are difficult. I got through the last racebox no probs and was expecting to knock off all eight reverse tracks tonight, only got halfway through though. Anulpha pass was brutal, pitch had to be *perfect* going round those hairpins, pretty tricky with half the world shooting at you. Respect to those that have polished all eight off already.

Yesss, finally whooped the floor with Zico's time after hours of practicing, swearing and practicing swearing. It was tedious to get 30.85 with that narrow gap but ultimately I got 30.67 with only three BRs (two at the bump-turbo-jump-crash-momentumjump section and the last when jumping off the shortcut onto a speed pad). Now I'm really relieved, it had bugged me for days no.

[trk_rkd]

Great to hear you did it without the jump onto the bridge. I sort of wonder how much you gain from that br... You have to move up to the very top (right) of the course, which even if you do with sideshifting so as not to lose forward momentum still takes you far off the ideal non-br racing line. then to actually do the br you have to direct your momentum skywards and to the right... by the time you land it you've spent a good third of a second just preparing for it and pulling it off. by staying near the bottom (left) of the course as you approach the jump and then just sideshifting up to the right at the last moment so that you just land on the lip of the bridge you can race a much much nicer line. I've yet to seriously sit down and do ziko's but i've had a few trial runs. i've pulled off all the requisite jumps but stringing them together in a single perfect run looks tough indeed.

[Hellfire_WZ]

Oh for CRYING out loud!

THREE times now I've come within a couple of zones of getting Zone Zeus. And I know exactly the reason why I've been robbed each time. Because at some point during the run, while I've been trying to make quick adjustments in the air to stop me twatting a wall... the ****ing thing barrel rolls and robs me of 15 valuable energy! It's gotten to the point where I'm so close to the trophy that I know if that hadn't happened I would definitely have got there!

Sorry, but why the hell have barrel rolls not been disabled in Zone mode when they have absolutely no purpose?

[mdhay]

Charlie, I feel your pain.;(

[Hellfire_WZ]

Never mind, just got it

Only two left!

[mdhay]

I've got 18 or 19 trophies, still can't get the motion, Zone or the Zico trophy.

[Sausehuhn]

Charlie, nontheless the left-righ-left/right-left-right=BR-thing is a pain in the arse for everyone who wants to correct his racing line very fast.

[TheFrostE]

i grabbed zone zeus today as well hellfire! i got some sick screenies of it too...once i get my flash drive ill upload them so you can see...unfortunately it was in a qirex and not feisar...due to working on the livery liberation trophy at the same time

[BaldyCurly]

I've got 18 or 19 trophies, still can't get the motion, Zone or the Zico trophy.

I pretty much blagged the motion using airbrakes only on a slow race.
