EAB/Lemon Super League 2009: Round 12 - Super Cars II

[TCD]

Always a good idea to google first

[Graham Humphrey]

I am noticing that the leaderboard is overwhelmingly red at the moment.

Where have the EAB crew gone again...?

[TCD]

Sorry Graham, but I loathe top-view racing games (well, maybe except for Rock 'n Roll Racing...) Another no-go round for me.

Easy I had a lot of luck with everything being cheap all rounds except engine. Hard I need more practice lining up jumps.

Easy - 40
Medium - 36
hard - 20

[Graham Humphrey]

Great! Could you please write the scores and the total in your post next time though, thanks!

EDIT: Smart arse

I do love Super Cars / Super Cars II. Hopefully I'll get some time to join in on the fun

Easy: 40

New total: 52

Now go to medium level

I found something strange and I need someone to confirm this. It concerns missiles. In the top row there are four. When I use default settings, ie. the first one is in front, the second one goes rear, everything is OK. But I decided to buy different missiles and set third for front and second for rear. I tried to fire them and I couldn't. Rear one worked but front one didn't. I use WHDLoad version.

Too much cheating, too many random parameters, too many bugs, the hard level is awful
Where's the fun?

[john4p]

Sell one engine-level after the first track (so you have engine level 1) then it'll be way easier. Have fun!

[rexsu]

Thanks for your tip John4p but for the level 4, it's too slow for me; i never reach the first place because the first cars are fast and very aggressive !

An example of mega bug:
Level 3, i'm first to the last lap, a missile kills me and a car came through the door (the racer is David Copperfield?)...
I retrograde to the 3rd place. I reappear, i crash my car on the train when the new leader car passes the finish line.
I await the 3 points and (bad) surprise, i'm 10th: game over !!!!!!!

Then buy engine level 2 again after track 2. Engine lvl 1 is mostly advantageous on track 2. Still you can win with engine level 1 on tracks 2-6 (for track 7 you MUST have engine lvl3, of course).

That was unlucky. But in fact it's no bug: you just took too much damage. With your final crash you were destroyed (=10th position) - shortly before the CPU finished the race.

Hang on, i was not completely destroyed
I have the impression that the computer didn't know where i was

Engine level 2 at the level 2 or 3 is not a problem for me without cheaters cars or bad luck. Level 4 your tip must be the solution, with the weapons i can may be finish first but for buying that, i need to completed the quizz; i make too errors for instant...
I'm often flat broke

You don't need the money from the questions. You can make plenty money by trading (buying cheap & selling with profit after the next race) - just keep an eye on the price of the items.
