just picked up a tron, which i know, i need to post pics of, but finally starting to play this a lot, i'm trying to figure out the gameplay.

so, what is the point of being able to move the mcp cone from left to right? as far as i've been able to tell from playing, it really doesn't give you any benefit, unless you'd be able to move it back up to give you time to clear out all the blocks...
 
no no no...

it is very important in wiggling around the blocks while you are shooting them on the higher levels.
 
It's easier to show I suppose.
But when the blocks are rotating a certain direction and you are trying to shoot and sneak up the side, leaning against the side buys you a split second extra.

Not sure how else to explain it. It almost pauses the blocks for a 1/4 second.
 
I don't think it actually helps, although it might feel like it does. I'm pretty sure the blocks just move with the walls.
 
My wife uses it to run away from the blocks, which inevitably just results in death.
 
User name = Tron Guy

I'll listen to him

I'll def try out the information in his post and see if it 'delays' the spinning. To date I have not noticed that and I've owned a Tron Cab since 1991.

Of course he could very well be a better player than I am! :)
 
I wish I was good enough for it to matter. I usually play with my kids screaming in the background and a glass of wine in my system...I always lose focus of which level I'm on so I forget my cycle pattern...
 
ok ready???

I will try to get something up.
I don't have a video camera, but my camera does record.
Maybe I could get somewhere in the user levels and film like 4 complete levels.
should be enough to show you how I play on the upper levels.

I saw another guy who scored over 1million on youtube.(I thought he played ok) :O)
took him 3 hours to clear 1mil, I can do it in under 2. I shoot the spiders to death though.

I will try to get something up. Anyone know if I can download a video just like a picture from my camera straight to klov? The same way I download a pic?
