Hi Rachel, I gues you naturally know that Top Speed's basic characteristics suite driving a real car quite well. So you have to keep your foot on the gas (hold down the up arrow) to maintain continuous progress, as well as keep on breaking or steering in the turns, not just tapping the arrow a single time and hoping for the car to maneuver itself intelligently. It might seem abit funny to emphasize this, but I've really met a blindie whose mind worked like that. Obviously he had no clue at all as to how a real car behaves. :-) That's all about it - you have to listen carefully and sensitively for signs of your car's behaviour - the sound of your engine, the position in the stereo field, potentially sounds of the other cars and environmental ambience, and if you have the track memorized, think a few turns in advance and in accordance with your speed, etc, etc..... But most importantly, the co pilot announces the direction in which you shall turn your car, not the one in which physical force will start pulling you. It means that the sound of your car shall always move in the opposite direction than was announced in turns. If it doesn't, you shall probably check whether your speakers are correctly placed. So, if the co pilot says a right turn is incoming, you shall just steer left until your car reaches the center of the stereo field again. Also, it might help to set "fixed distance before the curve" announcement in game options, at least at the beginning, until the learning curve doesn't seem too sharp to you any more... :-))) Hope this helps, and feel free to ask all day and night if needed. :-D Take care, Lukas ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rachel D Keyte" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Gamers Discussion list" <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, January 17, 2007 2:47 AM Subject: [Audyssey] topspeed 2 - I'm confused
