Time you see VS time you get

Post by SveinR »

So how often do you see one time when finishing a drive, e.g. 21:45, and the game then tells you that the time you got was 1-2 or maybe even 3 hundreds worse, like 21:48?

To me this happens very rarely, but I know with some it happens more often. How about you?
Was it cast for the mass who burn and toil?
Or for the vultures who thirst for blood and oil?

if i understood you mean when i'm touching flower and see i get eg. 32,55 and game says 32,58.. that i have actually never noticed. it think it rarely shows real time, eg. if you watch a replay it usually always stops at different time if you watch it many times

It happens pretty often when I finish a level. I think it's a new record, but when I see the time, it isn't a record. Very annoying.

and it's much worse when it's wr and then it isn't
how often it happends it depends on the spepd of the comp
..anyway the time you get is exact, not time you see

I know this is an old topic...

but this happens alot to me (at least on the old computer i had)... Hate it when im playing some #battle..
the time change is usually 0.02 worse than the one i first see. And i don't mean teh time i see when i touch the flower... but when it goes to teh "You made the top 10" screen...

e.g
21.56 - And i hurry to tell on #battle
21.58 - when i alt+tab elma up again

Is irritating :x

I dont have a problem Xiphias has.
i drive to flower, touch it, see 21:56, fast alt+tab, and i hurry to tell on #battle.
Then alt+tab back and see "21:56 Best time!"
It has never bugged for last ~15months.
