bananas

Post by onlainari »

Well, this could have been under couple other topics ,but in this new version forum,its maybe more free to post a topic if its unique,so here's my idea.

There could be another object among apples. This has been thought of already ,but i'll introduce what i would want from it.

For instance banana that is not needed to collect. It would boost the bike. Eazy code ( like mila hib etc found out the rotation speed) So it would like boost the speed to some value.

This preference would be useful for mong levels. It wouldnt be in internals. Player can put bananas to make elmer to go krazy and wild. Maybe useful for real levels too.. A better way to get player from A to B to boost him for instance UP in small and restricted areas.

This wouldnt be any harm for elma, simply meant to use in mongo and play around levels, and in competitions,if it was used,pros would give hard criticism and thats why ignored if it was a misuse.

boost means... more speed ? like a little "push" from behind ? and the speed decreases every second ? hmmm...
well, i think we should NOT use it for making internal WRs... it's actually deleting years of hard hoyling, and it will be SO superfluous that everybody could put bananas where ever they want to... it's like diferent internals for everybody...

another thing - even if records with this prog will be forbidden, it's like creating another nitro... and someone for sure will be able to crack this patch and use it for making records....

so, i'm sorry for being such an evil ideas-killer, but i really think we should consider the possible results of this idea.

maybe if the effects of the banana will be less revolutionary or a little bit different, this idea will be very useful.

Ehhh, WkE. I don't think you understand, it's the DESIGNERS that have to put the bananas in their levels. So they won't be in the internals we have now.

Look how much we all complain about n00b gravity levels, surely new n00bs will make banana filled levels...
I think having bananas is a good idea, maybe oranges and watermelons too, they say we should eat 5 peices of fruit a day.
There should be more variety in fruit, but no special feature.

Ooh! Maybe a storyline too...(this isnt the right place...)

Maybe not a banana but a motor-booster.
I mean, how is eating a banana going to make you go faster on a bike? Only possibility is eating enough to make you fart like crazy which would propell the bike forwards.

good lord chris penrose you should not say stuff like that. seriously. this game is about a motorbike, an apple, and a flower. adding a banana there is lot more fitting than adding some mechanical coal turbo booster.

yes. it's probably floating in mid-air anyway. going round and round and round in its never-ending trip around itself.





btw an interresting thing about the speed boosting would be that most of you probably know when you increase acceleration in nitro the back tire easily trips the whole bike. so booster would not necessarily have to be an easy help. acceleration 1600 would make the bike very hard to use. maybe the booster could also lock the gas on?

Hmm i didnt think it that way... I was just thinking that the speed of the bike and the kuski takes kinda teleport to a situation where it itself is on speed...like it had earlier gained the speed

just like a fu**** boost / burst ,, you eat a banana you fuking swing for and slow down the speed again, like you use a nitro in off-road or when you collect a piece of motor or a wheel in RC PRO-AM, yeah.!.!

I think it would be too fu**** up, it would complicate the levels for nothing, the game is nice and shouldn't change !



Except for new FEATURES, no MAGIC BANANA SH**...

Um... A banana bomb?
Why not a nuclear missile?
No weapons whatsoever. :evil:
But the banana idea, that could be c00l... but not for the internals. :o
Happy Höyling everyone

Bananas

Post by Crypt »

Bananas are a good idea, but yes just not in internals since it would ruin that expierence. I guess some n00bs would create a map filled with bananas.. and they get annoying at times
