Teleporting glitch in Tokyo

Teleporting glitch in Tokyo

Not sure if it got fixed or not, but it's an annoying glitch.
Some guys just crash into the wall and then the auto-rescue throw them ahead of everyone.

Check the video:

I can't call this racing anymore...

Re: Teleporting glitch in Tokyo

I didn't watch the video, but I know exactly what you're talking about. I've seen douchebags take advantage of it. I would've beat most of them if they didn't. It's sad that some people have to cheat to win.

There's an easy solution to this problem. The devs just have to limit the rescue speed to 10-15 mph. I'm pretty sure I've suggested that before though.

That's not a glitch, it's wallriding. I think they have to add a penalty for it in the game TOS, and if they ban few maybe others will stop doing it. I recall people getting banned in PT, and in LR currently it's in the penalty catalog.

Re: Teleporting glitch in Tokyo

I completely agree with the punishment of wall-riders. If that's not gonna happen, do the fix I mentioned, which shouldn't take more than 5 min, and toss a small notch near the end of most walls. That would force wall-riders to slow down before the notch essentially making wall-riding useless. Solved!

Edit: Why did it say there was a new post when I was the last one to post? Just weird.

Why make ride'able walls in the first place?? This abuse was there for ages! Just make sharp walls (just like the opposite side) and problem solved!

Taking a chip out of the wall is a lot easier than completely re-shaping the turn.

Thread necro to completely agree with this comment.
Reshape all of the walls to be sharp turns. There shouldn't be the opportunity to wallride in the first place because some people will still probably do it to get world records. Just make wall riding impossible.
Also: Remove quick repair so wall bouncing isn't possible, either.
