Only to have them respawn 2 secs later.
The Time Trials are something in the game that I don't enjoy at all. But I'm going to do them to get that extra EGO. I've only done the first two (Mount Tam)only. I had to do the first one roughly 10 times to get silver; the second, I think, 4 times to get silver.
My problem with the times trials at first was that I thought I was going to use the vehicle I was using already (durango) for them, and not the runner. So I ended up quitting the first one after failing 6 times, used the runner I had in all my loadouts to get a feel for them, and then went back to the first trial and got silver after 4 times.
I didn't use any boost or handbrakes and I had to memorize where the enemies (and any roadblocks) were so that I knew when to turn in order to even get silver.
I don't look forward to having to get gold in the other vehicle pursuits. I just wish the time trials, hotspots, and rampages were in their own map and the main one. That way, I don't have to hear my EGO telling me I'm leaving the controlled area. lol.
Back to the timed trials...
They are easy for some people and not so much for others. For me, I get more angry after failing so many of the vehicle timed trials than I do dying a million times on a mission with a swarm of enemies (and me running out of grenades). I can't help but think that the vehicle pursuits are only in the game because Defiance has Dodge as their sponsor (which isn't a bad thing), but it sucks when I'm trying to focus on being better at shooting with the weapons I am limited with than doing these trials for some EGO.
I'm a FTP player (too broke to buy any of the DLCs), so I want to get all the EGO I can.
The durango trials maybe, but all the ones you need for the pursuits are on that quad only which is unrelated to Dodge (although I'm willing to believe that they were looking for a sponsor for that one, too, but couldn't find one).
Here's a quick question:
What platform are most of you on - PC or console?
Apparently, it's actually easier using a keyboard and mouse than a controller, which is a bit of a deviation from the norm when it comes to driving...
PC, but if the analog sticks work on the consoles it has to be easier there than with keyboard on PC because it allows for better control.
PC but I use an X box controller for driving.
1.05 shotgun mag boost? REALLY?
PC/NA&EU, too many toons to list.

Hmmmmm...
Well, maybe just try keyboard and mouse, if anyone's struggling while using a controller - may get different results!
Playing on PC. There is no need for mouse in Time Trials. Just a keyboard. In fact, hand on the mouse usually confused me, because I've tried to make turns using it. So I see no problem using joystick for Time Trials. Just do not try to use it for shooter part of the game.
Woah, mouse does help you figure out your trajectories - I would have crashed and burned without it!
same, I need to see the track before I turn into it, I wouldn't even know how to drive without the mouse.
