Vehicle Jumps

[Hazel]

I fall into the lava every time I don't understand how I'm failing so hard. Anyone else having this problem am I missing somthing?

keep driving at the ramp, it doesnt always work

[mazak]

yes, no

Press and hold the "F" key for the speed boost. :)

NO ♥♥♥♥ !?

It's ill-designed, or bugged. Thg gravity effect on vehicle still remain on Pandora rather then on moon. the gaps that character can easily jump over are big challenge for cars even in full acceleration. That is ridiculous and apparently a mistake.

Yes, I'm having the exact same problem. Some jumps work fine about 95% of the time one way, like the first two jumps you make, heading back to Janey after getting the Moon Zoomy, and the Jump on your way to concordia. But if you try jumping the opposite way, I have never made it. Not once.

I have never died in a vehicle jump in Borderlands or Borderlands 2. Now more than half of my deaths are these BS impossible jumps.

i agree with this completly. especially with rogerhawkins as bl1 and 2 np doing the jumps. However once you get the jetbike thing the lavapit jumps wont be that difficult just make sure u boost before leaving the ramp though otherwise it wont work heh.

Same here i dont get it at all the ramp even look like they would work but the car eiter will not speed up or the car stops short of the ramp even on the easy ramp

I agree, that looks like what the problem is. The moon buggies all clearly have the same gravity physics as they did on pandora. And most of the jumps are just barely makeable if you hit it perfectly. It stands to reason if the buggies floated a bit more in the lower gravity like they should, all the jumps would be easy to make.

I agree with all of this, also WHY THE F*CK DO FIRE BARRELS EVEN WORK ON THE ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ MOON, SAME THING WITH MAGMA DRAGONS! WTF. STILL GREAT GAME.

Usually walk, those vehicles are death traps and explode for no reason + with moon gravity handle really bad. That said, like the moon buggy best b/c those insane homing rockets that levels every thing super fast.

Same reason guns do: self-oxidising compound.

... you can have molten rock, or metal, without oxygen. Case in point, from actual real life: Jupiter's moon: Io. Molten sulphur all over hte place, including _volcanoes_. Andnot a puff of oxygen anywhere ('cause at that temperature, it'd immediately be consumed by burning sulphur).

I also think so too fluttering the space vehicle

I posted a new thread specifically regarding Stingrays. I can't get them to jump the lava pit to meet Pickle, but my problem has been that I've been pressing and holding F right after the ramp. I'll try it before actually hitting the ramp; I'll post if that improves anything.
