right now i'm using the racing meter so the moment the lights go up i shift

the logic, as laid down by sir Grimsolace previously, worked for every meter, but it would be easier for one to make it a habit, the best way you feel the speed in-game, and the max point (say I shift at the moment I saw the km/h thing slowed down...(say it goes very fast first, and slowed down as the revs reached the max)....

whatever you see fit, it will be better served as the answer to your question

Yep. It all comes down to personal preference, experiment and find out, sure you may lose a game and one wrong stall delay or prolonged shifting times will cost heavily, But will you choose to learn from it than to angrily forget the moment and not learn from it and pay another game?

No man, just learn from the error, despite losing, you know it will work or not work next time. And that's makes you stronger.

Experience.


Also i'm full of s*** but hey its still true.

You don't have to shift the moment it lights up, u can shift when its still lighted and blinking, just don't wait too long to the point you hear "rev-stalling" noise.

yep.....if the environment is quiet enough, one may hear the sound of the revs changed a bit (while the pointer is at the max point)....from that, I have learned the way to shift....

the next step, to be frank enough, is to make the shifter your friend, I know it is not very essential or always worked the best...to understand the fact that, people may sometimes mess up with the shifter, or do not make the movement as smooth as he can....

you may also be given to understand that, as your own POV was focusing on the screen, not many people is able to divert your focus a short while if you are making the shift, it may result in a not-so-smooth gear shifting, or stalling...

I am learning to look on my left hand side while doing gear-shifting, and of course, the best thing for me, would be the appropriate moment to shift....

It becomes more of muscle memory over time. You adapt to the speed and react accordingly to speed to jam/defend/bound/break etc, with other ppl with tactics as well.

My favourites is full speed or high-er speed slaloms. Or better yet. Phase-Pause my car in your face as u push me and i keep driving without breaking- style.

*cough lol*

And slow brake and gappings of the accel controls..

I love movement basically.

to be honest enough, one of the key to this game is the basic muscle movement....

thus it can be re-phrased as one side of the term, skill.... think of it as a tetrahedron.....

I kind of have the instinct to shift. So I just know when to.

That's bad. Because well (not all bad)
But you know the optimum shift points by muscle and mental memory.

But what about delaying, doing it early, stalling or phasing it?

It helps in many types of movement/ramming/jamming/phasing/slipping/ etc. battles.

But if you "know what to do and when to do it"
If you're challenges takes it to the next step and change their timings. You're gonna have to mix up.

Hey guys, just started playing WMMT4 (and WMMT in general) and my first car is a first generation Skyline GT-R. It's nice and pretty, will take pics when I go back to play. Any recommendations or advice?

Handling is your best friend. The Hakosuka is more like the S30 and AE86 (yes I do own an AE86).

Hahahaha I'm learning that already. I went up to 420 h/p before I did any tuning to the handling. I started doing a bit of tuning to my handling tonight and it's already working wonders, hahaha.

Also, I was going to get an AE86 or something similar but they're just so popular, hahaha.

My team leader dubbed me the title you see under my avatar as I was so good at driving them! I was using my signature R32 back then, in the days of 3DX+.

Maybe I'll show you a picture of my R32?

If you like classic cars, why not get the Corvette Stingray? Though, it's your choice.

Hahaha, that's awesome! And sure you can show me a pic! I sent you a message in your inbox so you can PM me!

Because Corvettes are already kinda flashy. I wanted a car that was a little more subtle, hahaha. I will probably get a corvette eventually.

Sorry about the size. I'll resize future pics to message board size next time.

That's pretty nice! Do the flames make it go faster?

Nah, it's just for looks. The neons and illumination on my number plate frame are also for looks.

Hahaha, I was joking. It looks nice though.

I also drive an R34, but I don't have a picture of it yet.

Holy cow! THAT looks awesome and fits your R32 well

probably after finishing outruns on my BCNR33 project proabaly finishing it on DU levels before the target date of transfer

hope that I might get the R32 done before the ending of transfer at wmmt4

Since this is a GT-R thread I feel this would be appropriate.
I have made a team EXCLUSIVE for GT-R cars only(Any car with GT-R on it)

Feel free to join it. The team's name is GT-R

Where did you form the team?

Umm,Singapore

I meant which outlet...... Though I'm already in a team so I can't join it.

Oh. Bugis TK World :V
