Sandbox Slipstream HC

...


The racetrack is O.K. Most parts of the track were smooth, though you clearly made some errors while building this track. One particularly notable error is where the wooden bridges are merged with a different portion of the track. What you have done here is a big no-no. I'm not sure whether this was done intentionally or not, but I assure both of you that forgehub members are not fond of 'obstacles' in a double wide track. The way some turns are banked is awkward as well. It's alright to have a few off-cambered turns here and there, but they'll usually need to be bordered by a set of shield doors if you want the drivers to surpass it. You've even added a gravity lift that points away from the direction that you would want players to travel. What the **** is up with that.

Seriously, the map is forged well, but you'll need to focus more on what players want over how to make a map harder. If you really wanted to make a difficult course, I'd suggest building a roller coaster. At least that way you'll be attracting the right audience. >.>

P.S: I do not think this was built to the best of your ability, Flair. Your previous maps (the last two, for sure) surpass this one in every way imaginable. I'm confused as to why this one turned out to be of such lower quality than the rest of your tracks. I'm assuming it is because this was a co-creation between you and taxxman. I won't be drawing any conclusions, though.

 

I agree im preety sure no one likes double wide obstacles but 3/5 for the smoothness

 

If you don't want obstacles, go play the other hundred double-wide racetracks out there. Flair and Taxxman took the initiative to make something unique, and if you can't recognize that, then you don't need to be here.

This map is great fun. The obstacles really make it interesting, especially when you have a lot of people racing. I was doubtful when I first saw this track but was pleasantly surprised. Well done.

Do you not understand that this map is for the gametype Hardcore Tracks? It is not for Battle Tracks or regular racing, and it is definitely not a roller coaster. I would suggest you actually read what the author of the map has written about it. These statements generally include useful information in understanding how his game works and what the map is meant for! It is double wide because it is meant to be drivable like a regular racetrack, but it has obstacles for players to smash each other into. This adds a new type of competitive aspect to racing without weapons. Did you really not read the paragraph he wrote? It certainly wasn't a wall of text:

The map was great fun when I played it. It was challenging for a double-wide racetrack, and the obstacles, as I said before, added a new challenging aspect to traditional racing. Great job.

 

To me this is a waste of your forging, but I'm sure all the HardCoreRacers out there will have a new favorite track. It is very well forged but I'm just not a fan of HardcoreRacing.
4/5 because it is great for hardcore -1 due to my personal opinion on HCR.

 

Hahahha, I played this track yesterday, and I couldn't even complete one lap ^_^.
The actual track is awesome, great forging, but I never actually saw the entire track, the furthest I got was to that man cannon turn, twice. ROFLCOPTER kept smashing me off :'(.
Anyway, I really like it, it's by far the most difficult track I've seen. It's also a great thrill. That section where you used the scaffolding is wierd, when I was driving up to it I was thinking that there was no way it would work, the block behind them loooked higher. I was expecting a huge bump, but to my surprise it worked perfectly.
But.
There are two problems I noticed yesterday, one being the gametype, I hated having to sit there staring at my dead body once I fell. I don't know if there is anyway you can make it so you can watch the other racers, because I'm not very good creating gametypes, but I feel that would make it alot better.
The other problem I noticed was the hill with the wall sticking out, due to the angle, I kept sliding onto the wall and got stuck, after getting free I could no longer make it up the hill :'(.

Personally I think it's a great, challenging track. I meant to save it yesterday but forgot. I'll download it off your file share later.

Oh yeh, by the way, were the pictures taken yesterday, because I can't tell if i'm on any of them. Probably not.

 

This looks decent. That one turn looks ridicuosly hard but i'll try it soon. I understand it is meant for hardcore but it is just too much. Too many objects in your way. and the track is poorly forged in some spots. oh and the scenery is just a bit random. And the Name is very cool

 

ill be downloading this the idea sounds good and if its not like all those other tracks ill definitely going to try this out. good job trying something different finally

 

I'm not judging it from the pictures ^_^. You are right, people should comment AFTER they have played it. I think it's a really fun track. Enjoyed playing it again earlier with you Flair.

 

I think this map is very fun without all the obstacles, I should know, I went through and deleted them all and then raced on it. I think the obstacles ruined a potentially amazing map, and I highly recommend you make a non-HC version of this, or don't expect too many people to like the track for very long.

 

I agree with the thing about creating another version without the obstacles. That way the people who don't like hardcore racing can dowload the non-HC version. Alot more people would be happy.

 

Yes, while I was still able to manuever the track with the obstacles there, it is simply more fun with them off. Without those obstacles, I think the track is one of the best in a long while.

 

Seems....interesting... the only thing that would worry me about this is thee part where you put the tube ramps face up in the middle of the track. They seem to just dominate that whole part of the track . It would seem almost impossible for someone to go around them without hitting at least one of them. I will try it out and see what its like.

I tested it and surprisingly it is pretty fun. As I predicted tho the ramps game me trouble =[ but I guess that what makes it a Hardcore track =] Nice new ideas...just try no to put a killball in the center for an obstacle... they hurt.

I guess you have never tried HC racing to you obviously don't know what you are talking about. I have seen a regular version for this also. The track is supposed to wreck you or knock you off, LIKE THE GRAV LIFT. No-no my ass. If that is not your style of racing, why bother.

Moving on, this is a great and challenging HC track Flair. Most of the HC racers are liking it too. I give you a 4/5.

 

Me and my bro do this racing thing were we download like a hundred maps and race them all day!Thankx for the map man!Definite download
