This Strat Revolutionized Trackmania's Hardest Maps

Ойындар

Trackmania players will stop at nothing to achieve their goals, and finishing the hardest Kackiest Kacky tracks is no exception. This is the story of the discovery, popularization, progression, abuse, and eventual redemption of Trackmania's simplest strat.

    Fun fact: All b-roll shots in this video are on Kacky tracks which have had low-input strats discovered.

    I absolutely hate the sentiment of gatekeeping information because there are bad actors. Keeping such information secret helps no one. Bad actors are always there and the only way to find them is by looking for them, questioning achievements (by everyone) and double checking suspicous activity. Additionally throwing bad actors "easy" targets makes exposing them easier.

    You should create an audio track that could be played alongside the map with beeps at consistent timings just before the inputs are needed. maybe 350-500ms before? The sound cues would likely be REALLY helpful.

  • @caliburnleaf9323
    @caliburnleaf932310 ай бұрын

    What's the point of concealing strats just because a cheater might use it? It's like when teachers punish a whole class because of one misbehaving child; the misbehaving child keeps misbehaving, while everyone else suffers for it. There's always going to be cheaters in games, but the vast majority of players are honest. Communities are supposed to help each other and foster competition, but concealing strats does neither. A community that isn't open with each other can hardly be called a community at all.

    Leaving this comment here for me to try to estimate the actual timings of the inputs at 23:03 later (although I don't find such achievement very plausible). 60fps setting. Note: this comment is obsolete because they've already found the timings of the imputs. 23:03, frame 44: start of race (0.00) 23:07, frame 19: earliest spotted instance of the right key being pressed (3.566 to 3.583 [from start of second: 0.316 to 0.333], thus 3.57 or 3.58) Note: frames 17 to 18 had the same distance time-wise between them than to frames 18 & 19 (so 1.667), so I assume the right press was made likely at 3.58. Conclusion: likely, 3.58 right press. 23:07, frame 35: earliest spotted instance of the right key being released (3.816 to 3.833 [from start of second: 0.566 to 0.583], thus 3.82 or 3.83). Note: frames 33 to 34 had the same distance time-wise between them than to frames 34 & 35 (so 1.667). Conclusion: likely, 3.83 right release. Airbreak (unfinished): estimated 23:09, frame 41 (5.933 to 5.950).

    i think it's worth mentioning how someone won Cup of the night using a low input strat, he'd found a perfect turn angle that could be held from the start that would result in a fast time on a track very hard to do consistently. track was called "deterministic deep dip." Would that be a zero input Strat?

    Sinon probably just used timed macros which a lot of keyboards and mice come with these days, or edited replay files. I use macro scripts in many games that have tedious tasks. Not so much an exploit but just tool assisted. I don't think sharing them is a big deal. Its just the same as sharing tips and tricks on any other track. Because one person did it, they're gate keeping what otherwise is completely safe to share
