[Top 0.1%] Making a Mockery of This Challenge - Dubai Rapid Growth Mini Motorways

Ойындар

I hope nobody had starting thinking that I was washed up... if they did, this top-spot first attempt at Dubai's Rapid Growth challenge should give them something to think about. :^)

    Toys R Us is not getting enough business, the city shuts down as a result. Or parents cant get into Toys R Us fast enough so they write bad internet review of the city and move, convincing all the other citizens to move with them.

    Just a couple more motorways and maybe it was a top ten run! It was fun though, the best part about not having additional roads is that you always get decent rewards at the end of the week, though motorways are still extremely powerful.

    What I've noticed about some of the really high ranking scores is they let the pips stack up more and don't reroute as much. Also adding a neighborhood preemptive road in seem to help the houses spawn where you want them. Might help you get in the 10k range more often

    I only just found the channel last night, and watched some videos while I was paying attention, but then left them on in the background and got off to sleep really easily 🥰. I usually watch something properly first, then put it back on to help me sleep, something about this game works really well for that since it doesn't feel repetitive before I actually fall asleep since there's no way I can remember what's going to happen with it being so random and complicated at times 😅

    I have no idea how you make a chill game look so stressful. In the future, you should consider trying to hit 1% on Manila. I've been trying to get 1% for all the maps and it has been by far the hardest for me. I thought I had it with a score of 5304 a few days ago but I'm still stuck at 2%.

  • @Retroflux

    If it helps you feel better, Manila was basically free points before they reworked the level - it's next to impossible to get anywhere close to the scores people used to get (easy to get 10K+). Just do your best on that one, until they reset leaderboards (which I don't think they'll do).

    2 жыл бұрын

    Hi Small Kirby, likely not, but there are some instances early in the game where it makes sense to redo everything. Once you get to rush mode around 1500 trips, it gets a little janky trying to keep the trips from going critical and redo everything, especially because roads won't delete until every car set to travel on it has finished the journey. If your pips are low and there isn't any fear of ruining the run then yes, but most of the time it's a matter of implementing something alongside the previous and deleting the less efficient path once it's cleared.
