Is it even possible to 100% wild flight?

[PotatOS]

Flight levels (Spyro 1) feel like absolute total ass, they're unfun af to me. Plus im trying to 100% the game so im forced to get all chests, rings, gates etc. So heres my problem, it feels like the patterns of planes and boats are just impossible to line up to do everything, thus leading me to questioning whenther or not its even possible to 100% wild flight

Edit: i 100% the level, i hope whoever designed this level got fired. I hate flight levels so much

Yes it is, look for video on youtube.

The flight levels ♥♥♥♥, i skip them entirely

They're the real bosses of the game.

The flight levels aren't that difficult to manage. They are a test of quick reaction times, and memory. It's expected that the player will have to replay the levels several times in order to figure them out.

You need to remember, these were designed for the PSX, back in the day. And they weren't designed to be pander to new players. The challenge is rewarding to overcome; but even if you fail a bunch of times. Don't sweat it; those levels don't cost lives, so you can replay them again and again.

I had to do a couple of them like 7 times, and I think the worst one I had to do like 14 times; but the more you do it; the more you learn the best possible route, and the faster you can do it. Just learn from your mistakes; but don't fear making them.

They are laughably easy.

I honestly didn't find the flight levels to be that bad. Annoying maybe, but never impossible. Was always able to do them within a few attempts.

Once you get used to the layout it's pretty easy, it's pretty much straightforward.

I remember when a friend had first purchased this on the switch, we got to one of the early flight levels, I instantly remembered the pain and suffering of my past attempts as a child. Anyways i try so many times and then a few friends try as well and fail. Then my roommate got home and we let him try, he got a perfect score first try.

I gave this level 2 shots and failed miserably. I thought, no way in hell this can be done.

I watched some dude on youtube perform it and he was all over the place doing things nobody could replicate. I thought to myself, no way will I ever beat the level.

I gave some other flight levels a shot and was doing real well getting 100% so I said, let me go back to that Wild bs and try again. No joke, it took me only 2 more attempts and I got it.

The key was just ignore any video you watched, don't try to go after everything you see immediately. Just casually like keep flying forward. I felt like I always encountered something I needed to hit without ever having to do a full circle around much. It was actually quite casual the way I pulled it off with zero crazyness and I thought to myself, what the hell was the big deal to begin with? Give it a shot, you'll be surprised. Just casually keep flying in a forward direction once you pick a route and stick to it. Hit everything in front of you on the way and you'll eventually find you have it nearly done. To my surprise,I had a decent amount of time to spare when I ended up completing it.

EDIT - I'd like to add to my own patting on the back, I did this using a mouse and keyboard. Take THAT!

Yeah this is true. You might have to fail once or twice just to explore the layout and see where everything is. If I recall, you start in some smaller areas and basically end up in a larger area by the end. (Or I'm mixing that up with another difficult flying level). You basically want to clear the smaller area first, but again, without going crazy. Eventually you'll have it cleared and end up in the larger area to take care of business.

Yup, most all of those 'hit all the targets' flight levels are designed to be done in a smooth fashion like this, if I remember correctly it is even in the exact order the objectives are listed in. It isn't the fastest way, as you mentioned you can do fancy things to go faster, but just for completion, the game is trying to help you there.

I hated the flying levels when i played this on Switch. Controls were way too awkward. When i used mouse and keyboard on steam version, they became super fun with the easier controls. Metro Speedway my fav level. Same thing with the damn Treehouse level for speed jumps.

That treehouse level sucked no matter what, lol.

The flight levels have always been a pain but if you want 100% you just gotta do it. Peek my profile, I'm working on completing every achievement as well as 120%'ing each game. I did it on both my Playstation and Nintendo accounts. This will be the third time I'm getting every single thing for all 3 games. I love Spyro.

I know exactly what you mean. The Switch port doesn't seem to have the same level of accuracy in the control sticks. Actually, what's really happening there is you need to be 100% accurate to the left or right if you want to take sharp turns. Playstation controllers you could just push left or right anywhere and Spyro will take that sharp turn. Kind of hard to explain what I mean, but I know what you are talking about.
