[IJustWatchEm71]

Help!  We're being sucked in!

[billforigno]

@IJustWatchEm71 I too am annoyed at the lack of Shadow the Hedgehog references in this game.

[petrosonrocking]

that fuckin' trollnado! -.-"

[billforigno]

0:29 "Don't fall here". 0.0 Worst request I've ever had to carry out, if only because of the pinpoint platforming required.

@billforigno

The electricity shield makes it incredibly easy. Double Jump FTW

[billforigno]

@shadowluma I did it the stupid way and got all the red rings before getting any of those helpful challenge act skills (grrr Seaside Hill). And that was when I thought I could equip them IN the challenge acts. One thing I never tried and just figure I should ask: do the heat and magnetic barriers fizzle out when they touch the water like in the classic games?

[shadowluma]

@billforigno

I don't know, I'll have to try it out.

[incinerator142]

thx i only needed the fist one you showed.now i have all the red star rings in classic mode! (btw classic homing attack is SO useful for levels like these)

[incinerator142]

@incinerator142 second one sorry

[misterneckbreaker88]

this level is soo good. i can get a nice smooth fluid run on this , all way uptil the goal post flys away n 9 times out of 10 i get sucked into the thing. play this with kingdom valley its quite good

[Dangerous2099]

@misterneckbreaker88 I can get a nice smooth run all the way to the end and I have S ranked this act with a time of 3:09. I agree this level is amazing, it's the ultimate test of your platforming skills. Love it. Tip- take the high route when traversing the tornado, it's actually easier. Use the car mounted spring. ;)

[misterneckbreaker88]

@Dangerous2099 im like pro now at the game i can get under 3 minutes for this stage now. i have s ranked all acts, and working on side missions now. done s rank all up till speed highway , just started city escape today. s ranking the game is not for the faint hearted with high blood pressure. peace!

[Dangerous2099]

@misterneckbreaker88 I'm currently on 42/49 achievements. Under 3 mins is good for Crisis City Act 1, but I refuse to equip any skills. I prefer to play with the default Sonics. I wish there were two separate rankings- one for with skills and one for without. I'm chasing red rings (on about 70) and have 4 S ranks left to get. Then back to the pesky challenge acts, got 87/122 acts cleared. I really hope SG gets some good DLC, like a totally new stage.

[Dangerous2099]

@misterneckbreaker88 PS- trying to S rank all the challenge acts?! You crazy, f that!

[misterneckbreaker88]

@Dangerous2099 i have 48/49 achievemnts only one i cant get is time eater no damage. s rank missions im doing because other wise nothing left to do. its not hard as it looks just play mission over n over n find what routes fastest . all missions have routes to slow u down n some to cut it short. peace! good luck i love it still. i hope DLC comes soon an is stage packs. some of the extra music should make levels to match them.. hydrocity, mushroom hill, wave ocean, death egg zone. ect ect

[Dangerous2099]

@misterneckbreaker88 A lot of the challenge acts annoy me so I won't bother trying to S Rank them. I'm just after the 49/49. My ideal stages for DLC if we're talking one per era would be- Metallic Madness, Hang Castle & Sweet Mountain. I REALLY hope we get at least one new stage. Seems like Ice Cap is the most popular choice, I'd be happy with that.

[misterneckbreaker88]

@Dangerous2099 ice cap ?? thats already been re used in sonic adventure. hydrocity zone :P sega should just remake sonic 1-knuckles and let classic sonics adventure carry on from there sonic 4 part 2. and modern adventures can carry on from generations or colours that way classic sonic is not gone forever so sad when he jumped back into his own time era.

[Dangerous2099]

@misterneckbreaker88 Ice Cap is the most requested zone on the SEGA forums that's why I said I would not mind it. Also Ice Cap in SA was crap. I agree it was sad at the end when C Sonic jumped back to GHZ. I am on 45/49 right now. I am stuck on Vector's Rooftop challenge, beating it will take me to 48/49 leaving only the perfect Time Eater challenge. Do u have any tips for Vector? This challenge is a fuckin nightmare, not least because of the camera often obscuring your view of Sonic.

[misterneckbreaker88]

@Dangerous2099 the beat challenge isnt it? i got s rank after about 10 tries . to get it as soon as you start boost forward n quick tap jump n home the first note they go the same pattern everytime memorize where its gonna go . and be quick about it.. i just about s ranked second or 2. ice cap would be good if they did a wicked job on it. skip the snowboarding bits thats what makes city escape poor because that n gun truck is 75% of the level. i would like to see hydrocity zone

[Dangerous2099]

@misterneckbreaker88 I just got the final achievement (perfect Time Eater battle) to take me to 49/49. Did you get em all? What an awesome game. I'll play through my fav levels one last time this weekend and then get stuck into RAGE. My only REAL complaint with Generations was Classic Sonic's roll being broke.

[billforigno]

@misterneckbreaker88 Especially when you consider one of the most ridiculous red star rings in the game is right at the very END of City Escape act 2's streetboarding nightmare. My God. Having to hit those stupid ramps at the right velocity/angle just to grab a floating collectable was nearly enough to make the right side of my head explode.

[misterneckbreaker88]

@billforigno yeh i didnt know itw as there until i looked on youtube, for me it was hard enough getting up to the second ramp correctly. but least didnt have to go all way to end of whole act 2 fail time after time. sick game tho.

[billforigno]

@misterneckbreaker88 I suppose. The first things I can think of that needed fixing would be a set trajectory for jump ramps, classic Super Sonic's original potential (never mind ring consumption), and @Dangerous2099, I'm glad I'm not the only one to notice classic Sonic's roll. It's not right to have rolling restricted after landing a jump.

[onyxeclipse000]

...all i can think of when i see and hear those enemies are the aliens from shadow the hedgehog... -.-

[billforigno]

@onyxeclipse000 "Disgusting Black Creatures! Out of my SIGHT!"

[misterneckbreaker88]

best level in the game. it has great look. it feels like rusty ruin n volcanic valley mashed together i swear thats the little bit of sonic 3d in the game

[SonOfDragons]

God!!! I hate that stupid tornado, especially when it sucks you in constantly near the end >.<

[SpyroCoolLP]

@SonOfDragons "That tornado's carrying a car!"

[CwapThePlatinumOne]

@SpyroCoolLP Also a goal post! Wait, what?!??!

[lyooh2]

Wow, thanks!

[retrokidd420]

Awesome. Perfect timing, just finished Seaside hill.

[ronic25]
