ring challenge problems

The ring challenegs at super level are impossible. Sometimes when I land the truck turbos for no reason why? The truck in ring challenge is a POS because it can't turn ,brake, behave worth a darn

re: ring challenge problems

Here are some tips:

-Hold the Wii remote so that the buttons are facing upward, and then tilt it side to side instead of turning it.
-Make use of those truck turbos. You get them when you land all four wheels on the ground at the same time.
-Get extra air by tilting the Wii remote back so that you see wind blowing behind it. Tilt it forward to land sooner.
-Make sure you are using turbo jumps. An easy way to get them is to quickly press the D-pad repeatedly when you get near a jump, and then continue off the edge until you get it.
-Try and use turbo when your heat level is low, but don't exceed much more than half way. Then you will move faster and get a bigger time bonus, but your engine won't overheat. Then use the rest of the turbo when you get near a jump.
-Just keep trying. I had a hard time with the challenges too, but after trying a lot, I eventually beat them too (yes, the super challenges)
-If you haven't, do the tutorials, even if you don't think you need them. Once you beat the basic levels, they will move onto stunts and more advanced stuff. If you have done them all, I would suggest doing them again. You never know what you might absorb doing it the second time.

If you have any other questions, feel free to ask. I have beaten everything in the game, and I'm also really the only one who posts in the Excite Truck forum.

re: ring challenge problems

The truck can't be steered easiy without the wiiwheel from Mariokart. The stupid turbo on landing causes me to miss a lot of gates because the truck doesn't steer at all when that happened usually past level 8 where the gates are too narrow to allow turbo on landing . 145 stars is unrealistic I can only get 120

Did you read this?

That means that to steer, tilt the Wii remote down in the direction you want to go, not towards yourself. Again, consider taking the tutorials.

Also, try not to oversteer. If you are steering correctly (as explained above), then small movements should register.

re: ring challenge problems

They need to let use choose a better easier to control truck. When I was using the wheel I got 125 as my highscore without the wheel I can't even finish the race because the truck keeps missing checkpoints due to unresponsive steering.

re: ring challenge problems

okay I put the remote in wiiwheel and held it with buttons facing up and pushed it down to turn. I got 137 at end cause I missed some rings and didnt turbo much in level 10 otherwise I would have missed some gates there turbo is too danagerous after level 10

re: ring challenge problems

With the way I am suggesting that hold it, I would think that the Wii Wheel would actually get in the way and force you to hold it in an awkward position.

No matter what you do though, don't be afraid to try new things. Fly off the path a couple times, take a different route, try doing air spins (for races; you get lots of points), and eventually, if you practice enough, you'll get it.

re: ring challenge problems

You can also unlock a very special truck by getting the alternate paint jobs for every other truck...

Nope, even better than that.
