Hey Devs-Cheat-Exploit-Speed Demon

[ltolman4]

Did a quick search here; no dice.

So after 40hrs into the game I finally came across Railroad Tracks. I have heard I can hitch a ride thru the country; I did. I also learned I can hack the Missile Cars-way cool. Learned a few other things for the tracks too.

However I decided to 'really open her up' the sport car that goes beyond 300km/h (forget the name ...figures)

Anyways yeah...so I use my rebel drop; drive to the tracks and bam! Easy to drive at fast fast speed.

In fact I was able to get to 365km/h but also I was able to get up to 7minutes without having to turn or messing up hehe. Anyways seeing as I'm the first poster here, I bet others will try and outpace my score, let alone the fact of proving others they can stay where they are for the longest.

So.....exploit? Cheat?

Yea, a true leaderboard that's global would be really nice. What I feel they did was create a false sense of being one of the top in standings by using a very localized, meaningless sub-set (aside from friends) of people that has nothing to do at all with the Games Global Leaderboard which simply does not exist. Coversely they also decided to constanly display on your screen all the people in your local leaderboard who beat you, never do they post who you beat.and that's a big mistake I feel since the game only relentlessly reinforces how bad you are, never how good. Lastly, your scores mean nothing at all relative to everyone playing and that's beyond lame for a game that forces you to be online for the "leaderboard features" IMHO.

The railroad tracks are the best place to get Speed Demon but remember that it's an endurance feat, not a race. I go eastern side of the bridge near the incendario blast, spawn something fast (the F1, the Verdeleon or the other fast one) and take off across the bridge keeping right. If I watch my speed I can do a 15 minute lap. There's one curve on the track that IMO isn't doable above 180.

No, it isn't a cheat.

this is something i also found in the first week of playing, i managed 16 mins in the F1 car with full nitros. since train tracks turn slowly and dont go up or down hill much its realy easy, just watch out for trains.
i also managed to get 187 chopper warior
something like 18k endless runner
and best of all, over an hour wingsuiting

cars and planed are good and all, but the wingsuit.............yeesh
when you get the gear mod that lets you reel in when wingsuiting then you go about 3x as fast and the normal wingsuit feels painfuly slow.
in my hour long flight (which broke the counter by maxing it at 59:59:99) i flung myself of the highest mountain 3 times and explored most the land to keep it interesting.

that was fun, wingsuit simulator for the win.

never do they post who you beat.

Yes they do. Unless you have never beaten anyone? As soon as you start approaching a record, it shows it in the top right of your screen, what your rank is, who is number one, who you are passing etc.

Yes there are always pavements on the bridges even if we can't see them and cars are blocked on them

i agree.
i have very few feats where i am not the top. so you deffinately can see who you have beaten.
its also a very small pool of people since many of them are much much much lower than some of the records i hold (somethimes by as much as 10x )
i have also noticed that the pool of people shown on the boards can change, ive seen peoples names dissapear from the board and also seen new people added to it.

does anyone have any idea how the people shown on your board are picked, appart from your freinds? or are they just complete and utter randomers.

its clear that it dosent show people with scores close to yours since E.G. the runner up for chopper warrior is something like 30, meanwhile im at 189.
also the 2nd place for wingsuit wonder is 6 mins which is a 10th of the top (mine)
