Seriously, I have GOT to be missing something when it comes to tricking.

[Abraham Smashington]

I AM AWESOME. hahah.

Make sure you are stringing together your tricks with the B or X button when you land and don't perform the same trick twice in a row if you can. Also, rails are your friend as you can just hold a button do a bunch of tricks and then trick even higher at the end.

So pissed though. I spent like 40 minutes creating a playlist in Windows Media Center (it was epic) and when I went to go save it the stupid program gave me an error. I am a sad.

[BillyG]

I do those things. I hold down like 20x combos like it ain't no thing. I rarely get the big red duplicate trick thing. I keep seeing hints about "cashing in" combos. Do I need to stop combos and get those points? What I don't understand is what points do I lose when I bail? Do I lose the WHOLE total of my 20x combo? It doesn't seem like I am because I might still have a million points, a ton accumulated during my combo stretch.

[Abraham Smashington]

If you bail then you lose your entire total I believe.

[BillyG]

That would explain it then. I would get huge ass tricks, like 90 seconds or two minutes long and bail. I would be at like 100k and the AI would be at 2mil. I definitely began getting better last night, but I have no idea what I do different between an 8mil point run and a 400k point run, except bails.

[Abraham Smashington]

STOP FALLING BILLY. Or if you fall, rewind back a few seconds as you'll only lose a few thousand points and then you can keep your score. BAM!

[Abraham Smashington]

I fucking love the shit out of the squirrel suit.

[BillyG]

I did the rewind but I don't think you keep your whole score when you're doing a big combo. It feels like you lose all the points pre-rewind.

Rob, post a vid on you tube with a split screen of your hands and the game so billy can stop failing.

[BillyG]

I'm going to spit on Rob's ghost next time I run against him.

[Abraham Smashington]

It would look something like this:



but put a controller where his head is.

Go for it, if you can stop falling.

Winning.

Goddamn I'm awful at high scores. I'm over the moon if I can snag 10 million on a good long trick track, but apparently I'm playing against a bunch of soulless high-score generating Terminators.

Still an absolute blast, though.

It's so weird that I'm considering download certain music tracks just because I'd enjoy hearing them in SSX. For example, this track

is probably going to be bought just so it can go in my Tricking playlist

Needs more wub wub.
