With Crash Team Racing: Nitro-Fueled being right around the corner, a lot of vets are talking about some of the speedtech used in OG CTR, such as "Sacred Fire," "Reserves," "Ultimate Sacred Fire," "Saffi Fire," "Speed-Ghosts," and "Froggying." This video is meant to show and explain in the plainest way possible how some of these mechanics work and what they look like, just to clear some confusion.

    Hey guys If I was intelligent I would've made a comment like this a month ago when I uploaded this video, but I didn't really expect this to get much traction outside of a small community. So firstly, just wanna say thanks for stopping by, watching the video, liking, subbing, following my twitch, and etcetera. Recently broke 800 followers on Twitch, and the feedback on this video has made me realize that there is definitely an interest for this kind of content that I did not expect. Secondly, (again talking about Twitch) once Nitro Fueled comes out, I plan to do open lobbies with viewers and friends. This will start on PS4 and if there's enough interest I might include Switch and Xbox One (I'll for sure be buying it on PS4 and Switch. PS4 for primary purposes and Switch for breaks at work). So, if this is something you're interested in taking part in, or just spectating, go follow me on Twitch. Third, I'll also be playing through Nitro Fueled max% live on stream when it comes out. This will most likely be exported to KZread later on. If I end up really enjoying the game and there isn't some ridiculous unfun speedtech that makes speedrunning that game more annoying than fun, I'll most likely end up doing speedruns of the game as well. Lastly, since there seems to be interest in CTR99, I think I'm gonna try to do a series of video guides for beating oxide times (and generally improving) for every track. Though I don't consider myself a time trialer and dont do a lot of the crazy skips some people do, I did use time trials to improve at the game, and making a point to beat every oxide time without any unintended shortcuts was my first stepping stone to improvement, and i think its a great way for everyone to get better.

    the standard turbo item, to my knowledge, gives the same speed and reserves as a 3 MT slide. juiced up it counts like a turbo pad and will give SF. Masks don't do anything with boost/reserves, just basically increases your speed by a flat amount for the duration of the mask.

    I can't really say for certain cuz I haven't played NF at all but the game seems to treat downhills and uphills different fundamentally. In OG, all that matters is the actual geometry that your wheels are on, NF looks like it programmed whole sections to give faster speed whether in the air or on the ground. Take that with a grain of salt though since I haven't played the game myself and don't know if that's 100% the case.

    At the very least I'll be uploading my first playthrough of the game here in it's entirety (or in a couple parts because max% might take like 10 hours or something with all these new tracks to do time trials for) As far as speedtech stuff goes, I might make another video in a similar style for NF a few weeks after it comes out. Don't really wanna make a whole video talking about speed stuffs right away and then a few days later we find something else that makes the video basically irrelevant. From my understanding though most other stuff is still in the game.

  • @Hclody95

    just so you know: sacred fire is called like that because the guys that made the first guide were french and in french a big fire is called "feu sacrè" which literally translates into sacred fire. saffi fire comes always from the french "sans avoir feu, feu infinie" which means "without fire, infinite fire" and is just a tech to get infinite reserves by making a lot of boosting. the super turbo pads are intended because 90% of the times are located before huge jumps that you wouldnt be able to pass without huge speed. speedghosts are not only done by going in downhills but also by bouncing on edges and other weird ways. im sorry that you didnt know about the time trial community that basically invented all the stuff that you mentioned in this video, but just let you know that we exist and we are always pleased to help anybody that is interested to learn this game deeply

    You know what's crazy for me. I am watching your gameplay and hearing you explain things. But when I look at this and hearing your explanation. I am just here thinking back to when I played this as a kid and this is basically how I play all the time. Without even knowing all the fancy names. Also using Coco way back. Like all this feels normal to me like, isn't this common knowledge? I just named it, drift jumping/hopping, boost hopping, turn hopping, and that downhill speed thing you said, I just called that speed hopping to keep going fast. Maybe the 2 buttons to jump, because I only used 1 button to jump. Maybe I just timed it right? Dun know And I didn't even know those 2 bars next to the speedometer even excisted until a few months ago tbh x) Since I always looked at the exhaust and just timed everything from feeling. Feels weird, like I learned allot but nothing at the same time. It really is what you said in the beginning,it probably just came naturally to me. Cuz looking at this gameplay just feels like I am watching myself play. Thanks for the video, was curious about any hidden tech because if the remake. And I am excited especially with the new tracks. Was very informative, just wish you timed what was on screen more with what you said at the time. 👍

    i also speedrun this game. i didn't know about any of the advanced tech until earlier this year despite having played the game for at least 15 years. my time is a tied 74th place in any% warpless right now and im satisfied with that because my goal was just to get top 100. i've played the CTR demo at gamestop and watched basically every bit of gameplay i could, so i'm going to confirm a few things for Nitro-Fueled. 1) we can still u-turn! or at least, in the build I played you could. I've not seen any gameplay online of someone doing it, but if you hold L1 and Spam R1 while doing a u-turn, it produces the same result as in the original, which is AMAZING. 2) speedghosts are still in although they seem slightly weaker. Hard to really say because they weren't in the demo build that I played, but I saw them in action in some gameplay of a more recent build. 3) in the older build you can't jump nearly as frequently as the original, but i think they've fixed that a bit in the later builds 4) reserves are noticeably weaker. they're harder to build up initially since they run out faster, but it basically works the same way, it just doesn't last as long. probably for balance, who knows. 5) USF NO LONGER GETS CANCELED WHEN YOU BOOST! this is my favorite new change to the game. there also seems to be more USF pads than before, as there is one at the end of Polar Pass now. but yeah, being able to maintain USF until you hit a wall is HUGE! it was super fun on polar pass and i'm sure it'll be even more fun on other tracks.

    After getting the chance to play some multiplayer, I can definitely say this is the case. I don't think losing in multiplayer is a big deal whatsoever really, but the most unfortunate thing that I saw was that in my public lobbies, I was usually the only one to finish, and I think that's probably unfun for everyone else. The 20 second timer after the 1st place finishes needs to be adjusted to 20 seconds after 3rd or 4th finishes. The skill disparity in the game is way too high for the current system.

    It's not too bad. As long as you spend time playing the game and discovering some of these quirks and mechanics, which you'll likely do just by playing by yourself in Adventure Mode, you can probably reach a level where you can realistically compete against your average CTR player. I, for one, have played the original CTR for countless hours and only today have I actually learnt about what the hell "USF" even is. Funnily enough, I managed to get the 26th best Relic Race time for Blizzard Bluff on the Switch version despite this.

    Basically you wanted to explain this in their remastered, but you forget that they already explained it way before this remastered released. The one who explained all of this was Nyxx, CTR speed expert and Tiziano was the one who demonstrated all of them. USF was very rare and can only found of certain areas like Last big iump on Polar Pass, some turbo ramp N-Gin labs and of course TURBO TRACK for the famous USF on every turbo-pads. SF and the others was very easy to differentiate because it has several conditions to meet before getting it, but on remastered version, you cant see speedometer anymore so you need sharp memories for each speed.

    I've played this game since its release but i never knew about this stuff and i have no idea if I'll ever be able to do them. I always wondered why speed runners used coco and not tiny or dingo and my guess is because of their handling. I can beat the time trials in the original without problems but i noticed that in nitro fuel they are way harder. Or maybe it's just me being bad

    Do I need to perform a mini turbo over a boost pad in order to activate Sacred Fire? Someone told me if I just drove over the boost pad I would get it automatically without having to do anything.

  • @TheCornerOne

    You get Sacred Fire just by going over a Turbo Pad. However to /maintain/ that speed, you need to have reserves (as described in this video). If you have plenty (for example, on Coco Park, if you wait until the last Turbo Pad to hit one) then there's no need to do mini turbos. If you have none (for example, Mystery Caves where the pads are pretty much right at the start) then you should be doing mini turbos over them so that you don't run out of reserves and lose the speed.

  • @mikelamb2504

    Good video, though I can recommend maybe writing a script for videos in the future. You have good knowledge and you're interesting to listen to, but when talking off the cuff your points can ramble on and lose clarity. Simply taking a few moments to concisely plot out what you want to say will massively increase the quality of your videos in the future. Keep it up!

    I managed to learn everything you described as well as all intended and even a few unintended shortcuts (Blizzard bluff, Polar pass, Skyway) by myself, back at the PS1. No internet, no community, just by playing. That is something that no longer happen, new gen gamers go to the internet if they stay 1 minute without knowing how to do something. Learning everything by myself and building muscle memory made me very good at this game back then, I think I still play decently.

    Nope. But I will say Cortex Castle is the hardest USF to keep. not sure why, but it was the last of the 4 tracks with USF that I was able to keep consistently. All I can really say is to make sure your mini turbos are as full as possible and try to do them as full 3 in a row rather than 1 or 2 then restarting the slide.

    Kinda. They're being "used" constantly whether you have fire (mini turbo speed), sacred fire (over a turbo pad), or anything other level of speed. They're gained by slide boosting, and the reserves just define how long you'll hold that speed without performing another boost.
