wow yeah i just tested the armadillo on both ios and android and i got the same results. crash on android 23.974 on ios

it feels like the armadillo crashes on android because its slower than on ios to me. it crashes because it doesnt make the same distance on one of the jumps

Wow this is ridiculous. So now we need separate leaderboards.

This is interesting as hell.

That's right, I forgot. But now there can't be a universal WR. That time difference is significant on some tracks.

Well this has turned out to be a hit, and even more interesting than I was expecting with the cross platform comparisons! Very cool.

Very interesting. I'd been looking for another course that works with just holding the accelerator and Cave Entrance was very very close with the Tango (does Tango work on iOS?). This is crazy. For the record, it's not yet clear whether iOS is faster or slower. As you said sriskus, it seems the armadillo was slower on Android. On the caves it's possible that the time may be faster while the bike is slower (this could happen if the bike is landing earlier on a down slope or just generally spending less time in the air).

sriskus, can you record videos of Tango and Armadillo on the Caves for both iOS and Android? We could overlay them / compare them and see what seems to be happening.

The maxed tango on cave entrance crashes at different points on the map. The android version makes it farther crashing around 21.5 while iOS only makes it to 10'seconds!

If anyone gets The Cave in the bunker with a Tier 2 or Tier 3 bike, can you do this and post it here please? There's definitely a difference, but it wouldn't hurt to see what happens with other bikes too.
