Video: I Never Want To - Pusher Elite

[Dylan]

Here's a run I did this morning:

[Lambda 00]

Better than anything I could do myself.

[Jtike75]

You dethroned me, you fool!

Haha, seriously though that was amazing.  Tell me this, though - where do your eyes focus on the screen when you do that?  In ninja mono I have a tendency to look way ahead and plan my path (a habit I picked up from DDR) while I'm playing.  This is a bit tougher when you have to focus on the puzzle at the same time, so my eyes jump all over the screen when I play pusher.  Might seem like a weird question, but I think it's a legitimate part of the strategy...

[Dylan]

I always feel a little bad taking the top spot, but that was fun!

Exactly, keep your eyes out far ahead and glimpse at the grid only as needed. I think of it like mountain biking - you plan for upcoming rocks while threading your tire through roots.

I don't mind - you are clearly the better player.  At least for now.  In the mean time, I shall use your advice and perfect my pusher skills with the demo, then reclaim my spot with pusher elite during beta 3!  Oh the joys of this game

Nice analogy though, at least now I know I'm not crazy.  My brain still hurts from all the colors... perhaps I was just born to play mono.

[Pwntastic]

I'd say you played this game waaaay too much, but then you're the developer

[Boeboe]

Not bad...just wait until we have online rankings again, as I am planning to trow you off your high horse trough rigorous exercise

[LiQuid!]

Great run.  People who are good at Pusher are some mythical beast to me.  I can't imagine my brain working fast enough to process any meaningful strategy there.

Gotta ask. What controls are you using there? It seems to move like nothing I've seen before, a hybrid of slow-but-accurate with some serious craft-jerking at times. Either you move your mouse really far, or there's something else going on there...

Hell, the beginning of the song looked so robotic, I was about to ask if it was scripted! Wasn't until I saw the intense parts of the song that I knew it was for real

Mouse

The really jerky parts are when indecision takes over.

Do we see different charts? I don't see you anywhere there for some weird reason...

Well, I kinda figured the mouse

But I mean, are you using additional software or controls or something? Are you using the default mouse speed (which is just too slow to work right, IMHO, which prompted the question)? I just saw a lot of really smooth movement in the beginning of that song, and on my settings, there is no such thing as "smooth"

[abrax_pro]

Very nice.  I love Asynchronous. 

[krehativ]

Wow, great ride, Dylan. I guess the only way for me to get so good is to train a lot. However it's easy to find the motivation to train 

[Singilli]

That was superb great job man

one question though where do you get the Top 5 rank thingy i just made top in doorman and i want to have it in my sig
