View Full Version : Weird mileage...

I'm not sure if it's just me or not, but, are the speeds of the car and the rate at which you travel on TDU completely off? I was going 150 Miles per Hour straight for two minutes(Except the bender curves, but my Caterham got that up quick) and I only managed about .8 miles to my destination. I dunno if it's just me used to some serious speed, or the way I deciphered speed and rate has been wrong my entire life - it just seems a bit odd.


And yes, I was on a straight, somewhat.

i dont know... ive done alot of hitchikers missions lately and ive noticed that on average you do 1 mile per minute at 60mph... wich is about right...
of course i usually go faster than that, but it averages out nicely (like i have to go 10 miles and do it in 6 minutes... going at about an average of 100 or so i get there just in time... wich just seems right)

I wish i could figure out what's up with this. *'m failing the hitchhiker missions with the way this is happening.


What do you get from hitchhiker missions anyways?

well... as i recall you get the wolksvagen W12 (open-top version) and loads of those clothing cupons...

so nothing majorly important...

one thing you could try (just to check if its just a temporary bug) is to change the measurings to metric instead of imperial (just as easy to check out those values for mileage... 1 kilomiter per minute equals 60kph and so on)

Thanks for telling me about what they do, and they can wait.

I'll try the conversion out, hopefully it works.

It's cool. I'm pretty sure my brand new Jaguar XK220 with a new paintjob (and will be tuning level 3 if I ever find the shop..) would smoke it.

that jag is ok but its breaks really let it down for me, sounds sweet tho(the tuning shop is close-ish to the japanese performance shop)

Gotta find the Japanese too. x)

But yeah, it sounds sweet as hell... I turned on Bass Enhancement just to hear it at low-revs.

I'm sure its the Chrysler Crossfire concept you get and not the VW V12 Roadster.

I'll do a check later .... :rolleyes:

the crysler firepower comes either from the time trials or the single player races. it is the VW W12 roadster because that was the last reward cari got and i waited till everything is done. also the mph seems correct, but then other times it does feel like it is going to slow
