Thanks for watching! For me, while Redout 2 visually looks faster and the ships objectively get higher /kph numbers, the inertia that Redout 1 ships carry at high speeds and how much harder it is to navigate turns makes the speed feel much faster and more treacherous.

Yes, thanks!

I couldn’t agree more, and thank you for the kind words!

Haha thanks!

Oh you bet it was!

Yep, thanks for watching!

Oh I hear you completely! Redout 2 has grown on me a bit and is a nice change of pace, but overall, Redout 1 is the infinitely-superior game in all aspects.

A couple things- first, I recall others in the community saying that earlier in the career, the top speed stat is uniquely beneficial due to the way the stat scales up in on the graph. You might have too many stat points in things like stability or steering right now that aren’t as important at that power level. Secondly, and I can’t recommend this enough, go to the game’s Discord server - discord.gg/Redout- and ask around. There are a ton of really good players who could point you exactly in the right direction after looking at screenshots of your ship graphs.

@Aozii Try this- discord.com/invite/redout

Thanks!

Thanks, I appreciate you tuning in!

@@S2riker I’m gonna start playing this, too. My childhood loved the vibe of this game.

@yiryi-sa7829 Nice, can’t wait to see your laps! This was one of my older XG2 uploads- my newer ones on the channel are of higher execution if you’d like to check them out for reference.

Thanks!

Haha now you need to put them on the new leaderboard.

You’re welcome! I might just come join you and grind a couple of particular tracks.

o7 see you there!

o7 back to you!

Definitely- for all its current issues, the game’s balance was pretty spot-on between the different vehicles and associated builds.

@@S2rikerI’m sad that we wont have our 2nd & 4th places on Nuliajuk R, but that just means its on.

You’re welcome! I’m excited to see how the leaderboards shake out with the anticipated cutbacks of non-intended routes and making players drive the tracks more directly.

if you even can, i expect all current players and some others to fight for there place with such ferocity

Thanks, looking forward to seeing what you can do!

You might just find me making a return for at least one deep-sea track in the future!

You’re welcome; couldn’t let all those times be lost to history!

Good question- I saw that another XG2 player was trying to break my previous Spectre record with Venom and mentioned on stream something about the bike having faster supersonic speeds. Upon trying it, it seems Venom gains significant time over the Spectre in this track’s really long straightaway, making it the best choice.

Thanks for watching!

Yep, nothing wrong with going fast!

Thanks, I appreciate you watching!

If time trial s allowed accelerators then you woulda gotten under a minute but this track is hard,the only breathes room you get is that corridor of boost strips!

@Shotgunner_K Agreed, I prefer the purity of time trials though over having to worry about pickups and switching to the accelerator!

Oh don’t worry, I got thrown up there quite a few times by mistake; a couple of those I actually reached the elevated tunnel!

@@S2riker is there even a clean way to go up there

Well you can get up there but it certainly doesn’t make for a clean lap; it’s a much slower route.

Yeah there are lots of nice cuts on the track!

Me too, I would have kept up the series longer had my analytics not shown that people basically only watch for the lap itself and not the analysis!

Thank you so much! It is a shame this genre never got the respect of mainstream gamers. I never played JetMoto, maybe I should check it out…

Thanks!

It’s a good game, has a nice physics engine and LOTS of content! The biggest drawback for me is actually the bland soundtrack- it’s extremely generic and almost all of the songs sound exactly the same. I have played a bit of Xenon racer- it seems good but I haven’t delved into the campaign yet to give you a full opinion.

Thanks!

Thanks for watching!

Thanks for sharing!@@S2riker <3

Thanks, it really is! Sure, the physics are janky and the graphics old but the controls are sublime and I really like the game’s aesthetic and OST.

You could tell I had enough by that point!

Thanks bud, appreciate it!

Thank you so much, your comment made my day!! I’m lucky that a lot of the technique nuances from my primary game, Redout, carry over to Extreme-G2.

And when you finally kinda get used to it, you unlock the horrors of mirror mode

Oooh I haven’t gotten to mirror mode yet in the campaign, that’s totally going to mess up my muscle memory!

@@S2riker Now *that* is something I'd like to see you do!

Stay tuned!

What exactly is a must?

Thanks!

A few of the ones with the magnetic stabilizer power up are without wall bouncing but other than that, wall bouncing is everywhere in the WR’s.

Thanks!

Thanks, glad you enjoyed the video!

You’re welcome, glad you enjoyed having the archive!

Thanks, your times are great as well!

Sorry that was a mistake, just fixed it!

Do it!

Thanks for the kind words, glad you’re enjoying the game! About the health/heat, that’s a good point; right now they’re indiscriminately lumped into the “durability” stat.

Great question- as far as I’m aware, the reset timer on the health gauge is the same regardless of ship build or strategy. Just keep in mind that any ship collisions or overheats will reset that health regeneration.

It’s a matter of preference but I don’t like the dual-analogue “default” controls at all. I remapped my controller to mimic the “classic” scheme from Redout 1 (so no right stick involvement and strafing on the triggers). The issue with this setup is that unless your pad has symmetrical back buttons (like the Xbox Elite), you’ll need to set left roll on L3 and right roll on RB. It’s not ideal but I’ve gotten used to it.

Nope, I’ve never experimented with that. Is it easy to set up on the emulator?

@@S2riker Apparently so, i use a hardmodded console myself, Setup wasnt too hard, just a matter of getting the right file to your console and opening it from there

@theTF2sniper Got it, I wonder if there’s a big-enough community to bother putting in the effort.

@@S2riker well, reason i asked in the first place is because the community around Rallisport Challenge 2 on insignia is one of the most active with regular events & quite a few people competing for the best times and such, figured you would feel right at home there

Oh gotcha, maybe I’ll set it up sometime! Fun fact: the recording of this video is still the only time I ever played Rallisport Challenge 2.

Thanks! I actually only started playing this game for the first time in 2022 but I really like it and will be posting more videos soon (I owned only the original Extreme-G and XGRA growing up). There’s a small but active Discord server you may consider joining to find other fans of the series - discord.gg/FC6JFgVx

Yes, I’ve enabled maximum ray-tracing!
