Guess this is a good time to ask people’s opinions on whether Time Trial runs (Any% runs where time trials is used for each lap rather than races) should be put in the any% category as is. The rules don’t specify so it’s allowed, and I wanted get a consensus.
- Any% rules should stay the same.
- Add rule/forum post verifying time trial runs are allowed
- Future runs shouldn’t be done in time trials.
- Add a side stat like for vehicle type that shows which each run is.
- Make an Any% Time Trials category
- Other
Brought this up because of the recent thread, wanted to see what the community wanted to do, hope to get some discussion going.
I do think it is easy to figure out that both are allowed, but I'm probably biasis, cause I was there from the start. I guess a simple, both races and time trials could exist.
I don't see the problem with both modes co-existing in the any% category, or am I missing something here?
I consider Any% to be beating the game as fast as possible, and beating this game from launch (if it could be called beating it) requiring besting each ai race on normal or higher difficulty. I realize most runs violate the later, and this wasn’t established anywhere, just how I’m used to seeing an any% category set up, and I want some discussion on it at least. Sorry for previous comments saying it’s vague/unclear, I am just stupid.
Also yeah, no big inherent problems, more preference/feel than immediate need for change.
time trial should be kept as a option since it has pros and cons. slightly slower to navigate (menus) but no more ai car
We need an any% NG+ category, true any% would be to unlock the cars in order and beat every track the fastest way like that, NG+ is the one where you can pick any vehicle to start all the levels
@Bony_Thicc an any% run is beating the AI the fastest possible way, Easy AI included in a lot of games, however if there is no disadvantage to running harder AI, then by default people would run the harder difficulty despite it being the exact same run
@coolman50145sus Navigating the menu wouldn't matter as your time is determined by IGT
