I googled it first of course. All I found was a destructoid review that mentions briefly that you need to be lined up correctly but i always make a big thud when I hit. Has anyone perfected this? Btw This game is amazing and worth way more than $15 compared to other Nintendo releases last year. It's a full game if you love F-Zero.

The simplest solution is to boost right after you landed. But in general, if you don't ram the nose of your vehicle into the track, the landing shouldn't be a serious issue.

 


I knew I could count on you Rol! I learned about your skittles when F-Zero launched on the Wii U VC. How are you liking FR neo?

There's way too much motion blur for my liking, the AI is ruthless and I haven't figured out how to use the shoulder buttons. Overall it's a decent game, but I think it benefits a lot from the current void in the futuristic racing genre.

 


Those are fair points. Textures are better than I've seen in this genre but like you said. It's pretty ruthless and I like that. It reminds me of the original F-Zero when I was terrible at it. The phasing is an enjoyable mechanic for the most part. How far are you in it? I'm still in the first set, Cobalt I think.

Something like 97% championship, 62% time attack, 5% hero mode. Haven't played it in a while.

 

Dang. So you're pretty much done. I wish they mapped accelleration to something other than the A button. I find it's hard to hold A the whole race while flipping the R buttons. Makes my pinky uncomfortable, otherwise I'd play it more. Can you tell me how to do a boost start? Again I tried googling but nothing.
