I was just in a 1v1... I saw this guy over take me in the first match.. (making him first place) and pick up a friggen Hyper boost.... How do I catch a first place guy who just picked up a hyper boost? WTF?!

Second time, same guy I raced... He got a drift city when RIGHT behind me...


Not only this, but personally, I like the boost, it's like Nitro.. but I don't like Hyperboost/Invuln/Drift City, and I know I'm not alone when i ask that an option be put in to turn off these boosts... Just leave it with 100%, nothing, 50% and Team Boost.

Otherwise the game can have to much luck in a match, and I prefer skill based battles... I'm positive, that many people will agree with me, if they've lost a 1st place position to someone who got a hyper boost, and wasn't that far behind.

Please, have these as an option.. In a match with V9s, a hyper boost/Drift City lasts forever!!

EDIT: Thanks Torazo.

Actually, a Hyper Boost/Drift City lasts the exact same length of time in any car.

you silly fooly, thats not the point. It's the speed in a V1 is completely different to the speed in like a V9.. In my V6 I can get from one checkpoint with a hyper boost, through like 2 more check points... It's insane.. If someone is able to get through 2 checkpoints with one Hyper boosts in a 1v1.. or a Channel Battle where it's to show off skill, then unless the others all get hyper boosts, it's useless.. Unless the cars are pathetic when they get the hyper boosts, on any decent skilled driver, you SHOULDN'T be able to catch up.

Hyper boosts and Drift city don't usually come that often for someone in second place.. But if someone in second gets a hyper boost and the first place positioned car is metres in front, that First placed positioned car is gonna get smoked!

Thats why I want it as an option in the Game Creation options.

I was only denying one part of your first post which I had posted about already... Other than that, I agree.

Doubt it'll be done though.. options like this never get added... in any of the IJJI games.. But hopefully they'll consider it, I don't think this is unreasonable.

i think it should be turned off for 1vs1 and 2vs2 matches only(i sort of agree with you)

definatly for a 1v1.. but also if you wanna have like.. a crew battle... then you want it based on skill right? Not the off chance someone from the back of the pack gets a drift city, or Hyper boost, and takes the front and wins the race. If he hit traffic or something and got stuck in last, then he probably deserved to be there. If he didn't, he'll probably be able to get back up into First.

I like the boosts it gives lower lvls the chance to catch higher lvls and stand some chance of coming some where but the Drift City one is to powerfull, on a curvy track im nicely going around not useing boost so i dont damage myself only to get some smuck belt past into me grinding the fence all the way around knock me into the fence and take damage and carry on past with out any damage to them selfs.
At least make it so they take the normal damage or at least some and can cancel the boost by taking there finger off W becouse theres no skill in that what so ever. I don't mind the other boosts as i know if they pass me knowing they have been smashing into the walls becouse they can't wait and want to be infront so they use the boosts take the damage for it and i know i'll pass them shortly as there doing a repair from the next corner.

The game lacks so many options and controls. They need to expand this game. I think if we can get more players to play this game maybe the GMs can meet our needs.

Hyper boost is indeed crap.. I got it twice on that Mountain Pass map.. omg I was so angry, I was in 3rd, not hit a wall, and I lost my position to Drift city punks.. Then gave me Hyper boost, I needed repairs... so I got it again losing my position from repairs, and i ended up last... I hate them so much..

If smaller cars can't catch the big cars, is it the big cars problem? No. The little cars don't have to race the big cars. But in crew battles or something, who wants these features? A crew battle should be skill based, and not who can get the best timing for Hyper boost.

Littler cars can just play on tracks where powerful cars aren't really an advantage. On mountain pass, they're most certainly NOT an advantage. I don't boost in that map, and I barely drift. The top speed I ever achieve on that map is about 150 with a V6. I KNOW that most of the cars in the game above a V1, can achieve atleast 150. And V1s can achieve about 140..

Worst gate bonus on the Touge is Hyper Boost... That is 10-15 seconds of wall slamming fun that in the end makes you lose the race anyways.

The ability to turn off Hyper Boost and Drift City would be nice. Complete customization of this idea would be extremely nice.

Being able to pick which gate bonuses are active for each race would be awesome. Gates can only give 50% boosts or nothing. That would be cool.

Ability to Turn Each of These Gate Bonuses On and Off Individually Before the Start of Each Race.
- Nothing
- 50% Boost
- Full Boost
- Team Boost
- Drift City
- Hyper Boost
- Repairs
- Invincible Rush

Ability to Choose From Traffic Types.
- No Traffic
- Low Traffic
- Normal Traffic
- High Traffic
- Insane Traffic


Add the text in bold to your first post. I am pretty sure people would rather see this than a complaint if you get what I mean... XD


Also, I am not 100% certain, but to me, it seems like random only randomizes the maps depending on if you have Reverse active or not. If Reverse is active, Random will only choose Reversed Courses... The same goes for non-Reversed mode.

Maybe selecting the gate bonuses is the great idea. I only select nothing when I host! :thumbsup:

All the Traffic types are great!

I am a huge fan of trying to get around traffic... That is why High Traffic just isn't enough. I want enough traffic to keep me on my toes for the whole time.

Keeping things simple, like how I had my other post, is probably the best way to make a suggestion. There is another way to make a suggestion easily too. I will use an example.

Let's say someone wanted to remove the "Sold Item" message from the middle of the screen for each time you sell an item. First, they would take a screenshot of the message in the middle of the screen, and having to get rid of it before you can do anything else. Next, find out what you would like to see happen instead of that annoying message. One idea was to replace the message with a message similar to the one where you receive a coupon.

So basically, moving the annoying message from the middle of the screen to where the coupon message pops up, and instead of it being the same message box, they could change that message box to be the exact same as the coupon acquisition message, as well as being in the same spot.

I will post a screenshot example as well. Be right back.

Here is the screenshot. Pitiful job I did, but it gets the job done... XD

heh the final lap doesn't bother me.. not nearly as much as the gates.. or just even, the ability to turn off gates
