Top Scores - SSX
« on: February 25, 2001, 03:46:03 PM »
I still think ssx is the best game out there right now, but I have lacked motivation to play lately after unlocking everything.  Can everyone post their high scores?  It would be something to shoot for.  I prefer showoff mode.  The only one I\'ve really put some time into is elysium alps so far.  My best score was 1,003,860.  Please post any ssx high scores here.

WOW! I thought my score of 538,836 was unbeatable but your score crushed it.

Wait I\'m lost here.  How is possible to achieve over 1,000,000 points?  If it\'s acheivable, how\'d you do it?  My highest is 300K, but 3X\'s more than that is ridiculous, the time isn\'t sufficient enough.

If you hit a combo and get multiple point multipliers... you can hit a 100k move...

There is a certain path I take every time down the course which I think optimizes points.  You need to get as many multipliers (don\'t miss any) as possible and pull off big jumps while getting them.  The key to maximizing the points for me was not only flipping and spinning every turn, but tweaking the grabs (square button) while in the air.  Holding the tweaks as long as possible is key.  I think a tweaked experimental (unethical experimental) seems to give you the most points, so I end the big point jumps like this.  BillyGunn I\'m not sure what you do, but I think even if I nailed every jump and didn\'t miss a thing on the board I could only end up at about 1.1 million, not 1.3 like you got.  The most I\'ve gotten on a jump is about 85,000, so you must be doing something different.

Tweaking?  That\'s what I\'ve been pressing, I DON\'T SEE ANY TWEAKING.  Is it visible?  I did various things with the SQUARE button and dammit I can\'t see it.  My SSX CD is jacked, that has to be the only solution to my question.

Another thing, how in the world can you GET MULTIPLIERS like it\'s nothing? I\'m not doubting you, but I myself have to get luck to AIM it correctly, I mean it\'s all about timing, direction, speed, and you\'re telling me people could get these multipliers as easy as doing a 360 spin?  Getting those is the hardest thing about the game.  You could only get 300K points on the Tokyo level by collecting most of them.

Tweaking is visible, though you might miss the animation when spinning through a triple misty with mad speeds. First you do the grab, wait \'till the character has finished the grab animation, and then you press square. If you land it right there\'ll be an extra word or two in the trick name written in capitals. For example, if you do a Roast Beef grab, and tweak it, you\'ll get a Roast Beef JERKY. Or something like that :p

Getting the multipliers is quite easy... after myriad hours of gameplay and practising. I tried one run yesterday at Elysium and I only managed to score 470000 points. Some insane scores you guys got there...

EDIT :
Strike that previous score, my new record in Elysium is 550000.

If you keep taking the same path down the mountain, you\'ll eventually learn the best paths to take to get the multipliers.  For example, there\'s a red (5X) multiplier above some billboards (along with an orange 3X multiplier) that seems kind of difficult to get.  If you line up before it and aim in between the red and yellow areas and jump a little earlier, you will bang off the billboard and get the multiplier.  If you keep spinning/flipping/grabbing, you should get around 80,000 points.  A few jumps like this and your score will go up quickly.

I tried that TWEAK (Square button) and I still can\'t notice a difference, I don\'t see it nor do I see it on the written moves.  I tried everything, holding it down, anything I could do with the square button while on the air, before I land, you name it.  It\'s ridiculous, I have to be missing something.
