    Pre-Update Platinum Times

    About 5 days ago, key1340 told me about an update that was made back in Feb of this year where they reduced a few Platinum Times.....

    So you could always go for the original plat times on them for the 100% proper plat's

    Flaming Freeway oirginal plat 0:22.500 your plat 0:23.382
    The Lift oirginal plat 0:24.000 your plat 0:24.476
    Alpha Street oirginal plat 0:19.250 your plat 0:21.922
    Thanks again for the info mate !!

    Since then I've managed to pass all 3 of the Original Plat times now, here's my new times.....

    Flaming Freeway - it was 22:049 but after a few more tries I got 21:866
    The Lift - 23:911
    Alpha Street - 19:131


    I can understand why they reduced the Alpha Street time as you pretty much need to have a perfect/clean run to get near it, I only just scraped the 19:131 as my front wheel got stuck on the last ramp right at the end otherwise I might have got a late 18:XXX time and I actually improved on The Lift time while playing one of the Halloween Missions !!

    I'll look at improving them a bit more in time but for now I'm just happy to pass them !!


    Anyway, Thanks again for the info as I hadn't heard anything about these reductions as I only started Riding the Frontier in March, Much appreciated !!


    I was also wondering.....How many of my fellow Frontier Riders have managed to pass these as well ??

    All beaten...but I was around when those were the original Plat times; all us old-timers beat it.

    Alpha Street was the only one remotely difficult; I have the others beat by a couple of seconds each. Even on Alpha Street, there are 1145 people on IOS who have faster than 19.25, so... tough, but very doable. I have actually come to like Alpha Street, since its one of those that separates the men from the boys in the Bunker....

    Yaaaa mate I understand what u r saying to b frank it was the last island track I platted
    Its just one of the tracks I can't get right
    I think it will be very difficult for me to get original plat time on it my best time on it is like 21 seconds something so....
    Will take a good amount of time to get to 19.25

    PS : By the way really congrats on getting 1 on android leaderboards on both cave and moonlight towers mate
    Hope u get top position on more tracks giving serious competition to gtdave

    Nice one xitooner, I guess most people that were around before they reduced the times had got it done but it's good to see who else knew about this and who's managed to pass these as well or even if they've tried !?

    @sacpush.....You can see the times I had before I heard about this quoted in the original post I made in this thread, I had 21:922 on Alpha Street but I slowly worked my time down and passed it the other day, so I know how you feel.....I hope my ghosts help you pass them as well mate, Enjoy !!


    EDIT: I've updated my original post in this thread as I've managed to get a better time on Flaming Freeway !!



    Enjoy the challenge people and ride well to ALL those that are going for the Original Plat Times !!
