i was gonna say the same thing. i really enjoyed this map and thought it was really fitting for the rally car. they did a good job of making it feel somewhat realistic while keeping the usual trackmania quirks
@@rioriorio17 lol obviously there were a lot but the one with the two big holes that he fell into. They do it a lot in rally with hay bales and other objects (obviously without the holes lmao)
TMNF had a bunch of endurance maps that were in the 3-5 minute range like this, which I always felt was missing from TM2020. Glad to see it return here
I find it ironic that Nadeo have gone through leaps and bounds to basically kill ice and bobsleigh because certain steering percentages were un obtainable for some and then just threw caution to the wind with these anniversary updates. If the game just went on without the ice patches, eventually everyone would've been able to play Midori on an even playing field minus keyboad players.
The reason for the discrepancy is almost certainly that there was more than one party responsible for each decision. The designers had an idea about what to do with ice and then the directors said "we need to bring back snow and rally!"
@@Spiderfffun I don't mean this in a bad way and can't speak for others but I have no interest in playing the game. I'm very invested in watching Wirtual play it though lol
0:29 I love how the professional streamer's nasa grade gaming pc lags in trackmania and he thinks the solution is to crank down the graphics settings even more
The intense focus at the end there :D But ngl, one of the prime factors of real-life Rally is endurance. Yes, the author time might be more forgiving from each checkpoint to checkpoint, but you can't ignore the effect that a long track has. The longer a track is, everyone will eventually make mistakes and the concentration goes down. A prime factor of real-life Rallying is that they're often very long, and instead of getting every little corner perfectly, it is about consistency, about forgiving yourself little mistakes and keeping it going until the end. It is a different kind of challenge, but still rewarding nonetheless. Good job getting the AT!
There was a keyboard WR on the B1 map, though Granady guy didn't think it was maxed on his initial impression. You're definitely playing with a handicap though.
Powerstage is hands-down my favorite Nadeo official map. Had no idea about it beforehand, I was just having a blast and realize I'd been driving for a suspiciously long time. Glanced down and saw 33/63 check points lol. Hope they do more of these kinds of long maps, especially with rally (feels like real rally anyway)
this is probably one of the best tracks in the campaign, Tona put so much effort into all of them but this specific map brings back the TMUF black maps feeling :)
Watching you adapt to the course as you go is an impressive thing to watch. Side note. If anyone can tell me what the song is Playing at 16:30 it'd be greatly appreciated.
If you're gripping the flight stick hard enough that your hand gets tense like that, it's probably better to not use a flight stick. That just looks like some sort of hand injury waiting to happen.
Rally skips? Of course, rally is the most shortcuttable environment of TMU due to the car's great abilities at driving on grass and penalty surfaces, and the open nature of the blockset.
What you said about consistency is interesting. Needing to learn the whole track is harder, but because there are more points of failure, you are still able to get a competitive run with a lower successful strat %. On a 10 second track, to get WR you need perfect strat success. On a 3 1/3 minute snake like this, 92% like you said. In something like a 6 hour GTAV speedrun, you might still be able to WR with a strat success rate of 80%.
Track menia really needs more parts where you are forced to use your breaks to make corners and without it being used as a way to gain more speed or initiate drifts so the only way to get a better time is to hit the breaks more efficiently rather then pushing the acceleration at every opportunity. Like how it is in any other racing game.
I played this map last night (Im pretty bad at Trackmania) I got 4:31 on my first and only attempt while my kids were trying to tell me about the film they just watched. Im pretty happy with that now as you did a 4:11 on your first go!!
France, it's complicated for kisses, depending where you are, it's 3 in the south, 4 in the center, one in Belgium and the west tip of britain, and 2 in the rest. Though 1 kiss is used for goodbyes. Also left cheek first in the south, if you mess up you risk an awkward kiss on the lips.
I'm actually surprised so much people are liking this seeing the comments here. Usually it's "oh I dislike it because it's not the same exact type of map or car I played for last X years blah blah", but it's nice that they introduced something new and people don't immediately dismiss it.
as someone who has touched Trackmania for maybe an hour, why is it acceptable to use a flight stick which gives a clear advantage over a keyboard but not to set up his keyboard like he did that one time that caused all that controversy.
Because a flight stick means you have to try and get the perfect steering value with precision and the controversy was when he made a macro for a certain steering value and there was no precision involved. He pressed a button and then he got exactly 34% steering. Even on a flight stick holding 34% percent is very very Inconsistent. Hope this helps!
i figured it was essentially because he's still doing the inputs manually, but isn't steering consistently at 34% on a traditionally keyboard practically impossible?@@smam7667
as a casual player i havent played trackmainia since the new cars came out because just about every map now had them and i find it to difficult to learn a whole new way of driving just for me to have to do it all again and not enjoy the game. i wish the stadium car was the only car in this game. i also understand that a lot of people enjoy these cars but i simply think it is too difficult for newer playes to learn and enjoy the game.
Damn, that track is great! I want to play it so badly, AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA Also, look at the arrows at edges of the lines, they are showing whats next, like imitating rally's co driver
I"m not a good player not at all I'm fighting for authors get about 20-22 in a season. But I'm really happy that my first run on this was better than wirtuals :D with a 3:54
The 3 kisses: Definitely NOT Italy. But maybe 1 or 2 (never 3) with close friends or family members. Some arabic countries do the 3 kisses, like Lebanon (i have some relatives there).
The Dutch do three kisses on the cheek. Although it's becoming less common. And guys among each other just shake hands, good friends add a shoulder pat or a hug.
Hello, Have you tried an xbox elite controller? You can configure the joystick separately and has different sensibilities, probably more comfortable too ;)
It’s like an actual rally stage. The chicane is the best part
i was gonna say the same thing. i really enjoyed this map and thought it was really fitting for the rally car. they did a good job of making it feel somewhat realistic while keeping the usual trackmania quirks
Which chicane 💀
The anti action key part

He's got that death grip.
5 hours edging streak
Take it from me, arthritis gonna slap the homie like a motherfuck in ten or so years… 😬

All I can think of is how insane pacenotes for this would sound.
Someone should make a map where pacenotes are shown on screen it'd be fun
Or a mod :)
TRIPLE CAUTION, TRIPLE CAUTION
Samir you are breaking the car
I love this map honestly. They should make more official stuff this length.
TMNF had a bunch of endurance maps that were in the 3-5 minute range like this, which I always felt was missing from TM2020. Glad to see it return here

Well, I don't play Trackmania, but it must be said that the rally car is really fun to watch, especially when compared to the snow car.
go oooon, play it already, its free !
@@strubblelerit's not, that's a demo at best not a game
@@strubblelerthe free tier basically has only 10 maps. ubisoft changed it so that free tier is garbage now

@@itsmesometimes5878still worth a try
It’s cool to see Nadeo try an make an actual rally stage. That chicane is a cool addition since we see them so much in real rally stages
looks like so much fun having to manage action keys just to be able to drive the tracks /s
unironacally i do find it fun
Hey now, you only strictly _need_ AKs if you're a keyboard player!

yeah same
Get it. Difficult in the start but really fun afterwards
@@Spiderfffun I don't mean this in a bad way and can't speak for others but I have no interest in playing the game. I'm very invested in watching Wirtual play it though lol

who up grippin they stick
Me fr
boom

I liked the part where he said "It's Wirtualing time!", then he Wirtual'd all over the place.
I preferred the part where he covered himself in mayonnaise and slid all over his floor.
It gets like that sometimes
That part was also very entertaining. He should do that more often. @@YellowBunny
We're bringing back 2022 humour with this one 🗣️🔥🔥✅
I can't believe we're in a version of reality where people think shitty morbius memes are still funny
The rally car is honestly quite fun but I’m not sure how competitively viable it is on keyboard
its not
There was a keyboard WR on the B1 map, though Granady guy didn't think it was maxed on his initial impression.
You're definitely playing with a handicap though.
Not me watching a guy gripping a stick while I also grip my stick 💀

BS.
Not great to use it as long as he is, but his hand will adapt to it.
Not hand injury, but he definitely needs to grip it with less strenght
All I can think of is that meme of someone squishing an animal with the quote "Me when I frickin GET you!" 😂
Rally skips? Of course, rally is the most shortcuttable environment of TMU due to the car's great abilities at driving on grass and penalty surfaces, and the open nature of the blockset.
I kinda love that he is sticking with the new controller, its very interesting to see him improve with it
"5 hours of gripping a stick"
Timeless classic.
I love how wortual grips the stick 😍😍😍
1. Yes nails
2. Yes rings
3. Genuinely loved hearing you brake so I don't have to look at controller tracking

I've had a dream with Wirtual recently. And in it Wirutal has Windows 7 running on his PC.
The first song is what we fight for, carpenter brutt

I can't wait for Nando to introduce the CoastCar, that will be absolute chaos hahahaha
Reminds me of some of the old rally maps, I hate them so much 🥰
I played this map last night (Im pretty bad at Trackmania) I got 4:31 on my first and only attempt while my kids were trying to tell me about the film they just watched. Im pretty happy with that now as you did a 4:11 on your first go!!
Now Wirt should be well capable to play EA WRC on only a joystick
I know its hard, but try not to grip the stick, but just lightly hold it, fine adjustments are harder when you're muscles are tensed up.
France, it's complicated for kisses, depending where you are, it's 3 in the south, 4 in the center, one in Belgium and the west tip of britain, and 2 in the rest. Though 1 kiss is used for goodbyes.
Also left cheek first in the south, if you mess up you risk an awkward kiss on the lips.
I first thought, you were describing where the kisses went. I was like: 3 in the south, well they certainly don't mess around in france.
@@keineangabe8993 that's only for your cousin in the north :p
3 : 45 nrt 1st run is still insane
The Furi music was chefs kiss. Man that game has some bangers
Granady hat the AT after 11 minutes...

Map gives good old TM Rally vibes.

From No Nut November to getting callus from a different sort of joystick 🙃
Bro ive watched this like 10 times already, love the video
It was pretty funny when the mayonnaise slide hit the wall
i dabbled in TM and hated how the car always feels like its turning in a perfect radius all the time, the rally car feels a lot more "car"like
Rally car feels the best
nice
Wirt's gym's colour coding is the tmnf campaign xd
It's wild to use a flight stick instead of just an xbox controller.
i think you should use the one with some reverse feedback / tension
5 hours grippin a stick and kissing all his guy friends. What a life Wirtual lives.
is there an award for "laggiest streamer"? I swear he complains about lag in every video XD
Great VOD
swear this used to say 68 turns
Literally the Nordschleife of Trackmania
Nice
He changed the thumbnail to say 69 turns instead of 68
as a casual player i havent played trackmainia since the new cars came out because just about every map now had them and i find it to difficult to learn a whole new way of driving just for me to have to do it all again and not enjoy the game. i wish the stadium car was the only car in this game. i also understand that a lot of people enjoy these cars but i simply think it is too difficult for newer playes to learn and enjoy the game.

Also, look at the arrows at edges of the lines, they are showing whats next, like imitating rally's co driver
The netherlands does that cheek thingy
You need a glove for when you use the stick.
One thing I wish Wirtual did was display the songs on screen somewhere, or have a playlist in the desc. Like what Zelda song is it at 11:40?
Props on the joystick. Sorry to say about a great company, but Nadeo kinda sucks if this is the future.
tbh, this should be played as a duo, like in irl rally
It feels like a rally by itself, even the chicanes
This will be create if it is scaled up with real cars in real sim
* great
The position of his joystick and the direction of the camera makes me very uncomfortable
That's a nice map
18 min of wirtual playing with his stick 🤤
I"m not a good player not at all I'm fighting for authors get about 20-22 in a season. But I'm really happy that my first run on this was better than wirtuals :D with a 3:54
13:20 in Lebanon we do that we give 3 kisses
so is wirtual not going to use keyboard anymore is now maining flightstick or is keyboard still his main?
Its a monster of a track. I am .7 from Gold and my copium timer is deep into AT lmao I just push so hard for it as I want AT
literally le mans in trackmania
I mean not the most complicated E05 needs lots of skill
Cute lil rally stage
Amazingly, eight author times with 1153 players is 0.69% of players with AT
The 3 kisses:
Definitely NOT Italy. But maybe 1 or 2 (never 3) with close friends or family members.
Some arabic countries do the 3 kisses, like Lebanon (i have some relatives there).
perhaps you could learn to drive the flight stick with your left hand and use keyboard right, so if theres ever a switch its easy to switch.
11:29 note to self: convert to buddhism for good trackmania skill
Name of the music during his last run at the end?
After watchign this i'm still not sure about the flightstick argument over just playing controller tbh
The Dutch do three kisses on the cheek. Although it's becoming less common. And guys among each other just shake hands, good friends add a shoulder pat or a hug.
Should’ve had one more turn
What is wirtual using for breaking? I'm guessing accelerating is bound to the top back side button of the joystick
Could you consider doing a bouldering video in the future, maybe collabing with Norwegian Magnus (Midtbø)
Would love to see it
Hello, Have you tried an xbox elite controller? You can configure the joystick separately and has different sensibilities, probably more comfortable too ;)
Nice.
Yo,whats this music at 3:03-4:40
Carpenter Brut - Time to wake up
what song is being played at 17:30
Is this map gonna be in ranked?
what song is playing at 3:10?
So with the action keys. To set your steering. How do you use it in console? Can you?
