To me, playing TF with the sound off doesn't make a dent in my performance, and if I want the earphones in while I'm playing TF, it would be only just to listen to music, rather than the background sounds on TF, since there isn't a lot of music on TF, which is played in the menu, the bunker, the map and after a race is finished, which is quite boring. Normally on the other Trials games, like Trials HD, Evolution and Fusion, there is always music every time that you play a track, and the music overall is always at least quite good, and I'm used to hearing the bike as well, but on the other hand, there isn't any point to listen to TF imo. I have no problems with wearing earphones or hearing the 'kshiiing' noise or any other background noise, but I want to listen to music in a game and TF just has a lack of it so I just don't listen to it. Sometimes when I do want to hear the bike on TF on crucial tracks, I do put in earphones but just have the TF background sounds on but not the TF music or any music at all, only just to concentrate on a particular track.
Well just like flooodi and FatalDragon, you will get used to the Donkey in a short while, and then you'll be making Top 10 runs before you know it. I know it takes a while, but you yourself are a decent player, so it shouldn't take long to be fully accustomed to the Donkey, if flooodi and FatalDragon can be in the Top 100, so can you! ;)
I thought you said you didn't have time to go through this thread and you looked through anyway! :D I'll check this other Donkey thread then, thanks! :)
Top 100 times is a decent target to aim for, even on the tracks where there hasn't been 100 players on, and if you do that, at least you will be instantly in the Top 100! :D On some tracks, just trying to get a few points on some of the tracks is an absolute headache, due to the scoring system... And you will clear the hardest of the Hardcore tracks, Traction Testground, Widowmaker, Woodwork Conclave, (ughhhhh......) Metal Mayhem and Grease Transit, when you're ready to do so. Of course those five I gave as examples are actually my Top 5 hardest tracks w/ Donkey imo. And it won't be the higher ranks that will be harder to get to, it's also the points too, they will also be gradually harder to obtain, making it even harder to get to the Top 50 even.
I wonder if FatalDragon has noticed that you've passed him on the leaderboards? :D
