hey we got Ver.3 in English now!!! i already beat Akina Snow!and got Racer level up with one star so far. it was great u can hear the blow off valve so well.

fat_laces · Jul 16, 2004

i find the BOV annoying but im over it. Too loud tho.. i reckn the evo3's MFS would be good if it were a bit louder. Personally i find the evo's accel too slow for battles.. i think the evo3 (a -tune) is the fastest out of all evo's..ranked about top10 in fastest accel..

lethalAE86typeR · Jul 16, 2004

i think the Ev0 5 A-tune will own all except on Shomaru.

fat_laces · Jul 16, 2004

for battles even if u get close to the other ull get blocked. You'll see what i mean wen u play..

The Vanishing Boy · Jul 16, 2004

I noticed a lot of players are getting hooked to blocking, which is sad.

lethalAE86typeR · Jul 16, 2004

well i used a stock eVo 5 and i passed up a fully tuned S2000 on every course i raced him on(Tsuchihazaka and Aknia Snow).

fat_laces · Jul 17, 2004

tsuchizaka is evo5's home course. Also FR cars do very bad on snow so thats why u won. I dont find it sad to block.. i personally find it a loss if u let ppl pass.. and its definately a must when its a boost on battles.. i dl a fair amount of v3 Japanese tourneys. Couple more days till finals..

The Vanishing Boy · Jul 19, 2004

I tried the 'teg on Akina Snow, it was ok, but slow as a snail.

drifterboy77 · Jul 19, 2004

In a little bit im gonna go play some ver3, i think ill try to beat usui tonight...Also is the only track the fd will not get owned on akagi? I heard some people saying that the fd is great on akagi but thats about it.

fat_laces · Jul 20, 2004

FD is still okay.. pretty allrounder.. within top 10.. for battles it probably struggles for the fact for average accel..

drifterboy77 · Jul 20, 2004

Well i played yesterday i beat all of usui and got a racer level up .yay.I only had three bucks lol, but next time i will beat akagi probably..

AP1 · Jul 22, 2004

I love Akagi. I keep racing Ryosuke over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over (you know how it goes...) again. In both my black RX-7 Spirit and S2000.

lethalAE86typeR · Jul 22, 2004

the FR cars arent so well on Akina Snow and that track will be popular.

fat_laces · Jul 22, 2004

in my area akina snow isnt that popular. Most ppl dont know how to play it either, i spose its kinda different where u have to brake longer through the turn even up till apex. Well thats how i do it.. most common battle map is probably akagi.. gonna prob retire soon. Set a crappy time of 47'9xx wif my GDB for tsuch oB. Will tune up my cappo to abt 300k and try to set a decent akina time, hopefully under 3'05

The Vanishing Boy · Jul 22, 2004

I just played somebody in a cardless ITR A/T, saying that he liked to race me with his Evo V on Akagi Snow. I thought I was a goner, but suprisingly I beat him in a huge margin of 250 meters, I was shocked that time because I thought that the ITR is now one of the worst cars in V.3. :eek:

lethalAE86typeR · Jul 22, 2004

hahaha. you got lucky TVB.

The Vanishing Boy · Jul 22, 2004

I know, it was stupid may he was just a novice player.

But I'm planning to convert my Cappo (which is the best car in V.3 according to the Koreans), and I'm not really that serious about playing V.3 and its kinda drag to start from scratch.

=aka. too lazy to play InD V.3=

:dunce:

fat_laces · Jul 23, 2004

i transferred my capo over as well just to set an akina time ill be happy with then ill retire. Rx8 is best for dry/wet TA overall if thats what u mean.. cappo is 2nd best on dry overall

The Integra is the worst car in Version 3 now?! :eek:

PRAISE THE LORD, JESUS CHRIST. :sly:

AP1 · Jul 25, 2004

Well, so far my plans in Version 3 are:

- Transfer Mazda RX-7 Spirit R Type A immeadietly.
- Transfer Honda S2000 whenever I want to.
- Get a 4WD car when I'm bored to death of the RX-7 and the S2000.

EDIT: I've just did a little bit of research on 4WD cars for Version 3. Opinions please.

Subaru Impreza WRX STi Version VI [GC8], Yellow, Course A
Nissan Skyline GT-R V-spec II [BNR32], Silver or Red, Course A
Mitsubishi Lancer RS Evolution V [CP9A], Red, Course C (then change the rear wing/trunk lid :yuck:

)

Thanks alot guys!

feastracer · Jul 26, 2004

Has anyone tried the Altezza in Ver 3 its pretty fast. I beat shingo in one try stock and it was my first time in Ver 3. Any good first cars, currently I have a Evo, AE86, and an Altezza. The Evos fast on myogi but the the Altezza is faster weird, huh

fat_laces · Jul 27, 2004

altezza is ranked abt 4th in best start up. Its excellent battle car for dry for the fact it has a fast acceleration but in wet it dies. AP1 - out of ur 3 cars the best for battles could be the evo5.. ranked top 10. The r32 (has one of the slowest accel) is 2nd best for wet but for dry its average.. ranked between 10-15.

Dc2 is not the worst car tho its really poor now.. still acceptable on some maps.. im sure i could still beat noobs wif a stock DC2 on maps like tsuch or akina. Praise the Lord that the dc2 is the worst? hmmmmmmmmmm...right

The Vanishing Boy · Jul 27, 2004

I had fun with the DC2 on Akina snow, I think it simulates driving on a wet course in real life. I experience this everytime rain comes here in Vegas on my slow-ass Protege5.

haha your slow ass protege5, hope you get your integra fixed or whatever it needs soon.

Anyways last night i cleared akagi then battled two ppl. the first on akina night dh. it was fd vs fd, his with 400,000 pts mine with 40,000... :dunce:

anyways it was a pretty close race i used the blind attack thingy :sly:

and passed him once and stayed ahead for most of the round. somehow he passed me on the outside though right before the consecutive hairpins and then hey stayed ahead with some ''l33t'' blocking...i lose

on my second battle i raced a 400k evo5 on tsuchisaka inbound a very close race but another lose. oh well

The Vanishing Boy · Jul 27, 2004

Im not joking, the Protege5 is so slow on the top-end its one of the very few cars that doesn't have a governor (an electronic device that limits your vehicle on a certain speed), and I tried it on a loop/rotonda that thing plows worse than a snow plow, it take the crown as one of the worst understeering vehicles.

BT:
Its been a while I haven't played V.3 so I have no news just yet.

AP1 · Jul 27, 2004

I thought you were supposed to get a Mazda 3 TVB, not end up with a '03 Protege5...

lethalAE86typeR · Jul 28, 2004

\/\/ 311 guys havent been here lately. So any Times on Version 3? i got a 2'30 on my Stock Transfered Ev04. on Akagi

Yeah, I'm supposed to, but the dealer ripped me off after two weeks enjoying the Mazda 3 2.3 . If I knew that this is going to happen, I've should've stayed at Findlay Subaru and get that Forester, at the same time I would have forget of re-building my 'teg.

So sad :guilty:

, and pissed at the same time :grumpy:
