Thread 11895432

Grasshopper is my favorite Twisted Metal! Nothing better than just smashing through your enemies, especially that weak ass bitch Grimm haha

>>11895432 (OP)
you just want to have sex with the teenybopper.

>>11895432 (OP)
Not even TM's best bug car.

>>11895432 (OP)
People really like grasshopper? her and pit viper always seemed like the jobbers of the first two TM games

>>11895467
NO

>>11895480
Boring special.

>>11895485
I like Twister too, shield up, twister time!

>>11895480
based

>>11895432 (OP)
Cool OP.
Not my favorite but a nice challenge.

>>11895485
Not much PV but I like Grasshopper. She is actually very good. Her special takes enemies slightly off the ground so im you time the special with a power, napalm or remote you are able to deal great damage.
Hammerhead is the worst car. His defence doesn't make up for the horrid handling.

>>11895805
>made completely obsolete by Axel, who has the same armor, is faster, has better handling and is better at ramming even though that's Hammerhead's whole schtick

>>11895490
Twister was always one of my favorites

>>11895432 (OP)
>Offers literally no source for claims
Disregarded

Superior

>>11896005
Yeah.
Hammerhead is worthless. No reason to use him.
Whats funny is that he isone of the most annoying enemies. Only he back and front freezes, has a bug where sometimes coliding with him stuns you and if Slam is nearby, he will team up with him. Which is jarring since its drivers are 2 retards.

>>11896042
Not him but here

What claims? That it's GREAT? It's obvious. Unless you cannot keep up with RAMMING SPEED

>>11896254
>In V8, V8: 2nd Offense and V8: Arcade, Sheila's Special Weapon was the Tantrum Gun, a giant mini-gun that could rack up damage with each shot and could knock any weapon (including Special Weapons) off enemy vehicles.
BORING

>>11895432 (OP)
I got pretty good with Grasshopper despite people advising me not to play her. Ultimately, her handling along with her sometimes unwieldly Special stopped me from getting past New York.

>>11897265
>ramming speed
>but he thinks TMB Yellowjacket is boring

>>11897270
>>11896964
Look at this video.
If you time the special with a remote or napalm, you can almost instantly delete most enemies.
He handling is good. Honestly only issue is shield is almost a must for her.

>>11895432 (OP)
That special is a 50/50 death trap

>>11897314
Didn't know they changed his special, I don't play newfangled games. Slightly better, but still not the same flair.

>>11895432 (OP)
Too bad they cut her from Small Brawl

>>11898181
speaking of small brawl, there was also this cut character

>>11895432 (OP)
>>11895805

So whats the best way to execute her special? shield > yeehaw > machine guns?
shield> yeehaw > missile/naplam?

theres got to be a way to make it kick serious ass

In 2 I liked warthog best, he wasn't the best but just liked his play.

I actually wasn't great at the game but some how often lucky with Mr. Grimm

>>11898181
who?

>>11898204
Yes just combine with shield and something stationary/hard to aim.

>>11899081
cut character meant to be krista (grasshopper) for small brawl

>>11898194
At least Mime the vehicle is in the game
Also the Darkside kid with the demon mask

>>11898181
Now that I think about it, that could be Trapper's driver

>>11898204
>>11896964
If you watch it the best one is special, shield then use remote and you nearly kill enemies.
Same but Napalm is also great. Use power to keep the enemy in the flames.
Generally speaking, do note use it when in front, back or away from enemies or you get countered.

>>11898194
bootleg Harley Quinn

>>11898194
>kill jeester

I pick Mr. Slam

>>11901416
I find it funny how in TM2 if he cant lift an enemy like Hammerhead and Minion he just bonk them on the "head" and they go apeshit.

TMPS3 > Twisted Metal 2 > Rogue Trip > V8 > Twisted Metal: Small Brawl > Black > 3, 4, V8-2 > TM1.

>>11902723
You are right TM2012 is probably the best car combat game made but both V8 games are better than all the ps1 TM games amd the best ps1 TM is fucking SB

>>11902723
>Implying.
1 as barebones as it is at least is playable and has one of the best maps in the series (Cyburbia) as well as the best cast after 2 and black.
3 is straight up vomit and 4 is kinda cheese but love the create a car system.

>>11902723
3 is way worse than 1

It's been forever since I played any TM but was Grasshopper's special like the Top Spin (from Mega Man 3) of the game? I can't even remember what it did.

>>11902726
TM1's cockpit view was kino, it's great for that feature alone.

For me, it's Cel Damage

>>11902951
Definitely, getting to see inside the car gives it some personality too.
My issue is that mode made the game harder for certain cars like Crimson Fury special hits the floor too regularly.
One thing I love the most was that the drivers had real reasons to enter the contest: Outlaw wants to end TM, Thumper have a safe neighborhood, Spectre come back to life, Roadkill to save the platoon he got killed back at nam, etc.
From 2 onwards the whole "I twist your wish" or "I am entering for dumb reasons" became too common and honestly annoying.

>>11902898
that's Twister

I've been reading stuff about Twisted Metal development and it seems like the endgame of everything is letting the characters fight on foot.

>>11903160
my nigga
Cinder is OP but still main him

I love trashy girls so much it's unreal.

>>11895485
Poor Pit Viper, never seen again after the first game because it was replaced by Grasshopper, only for Grasshopper to be barely used itself.

>>11903407
Actually, Small Brawl was supposed to have a spinoff paintball shooter. I'm not sure how far it got before cancellation but at least one character model has been finished. Game designer David Goodrich might have all conceptual documents and perhaps even a working prototype.

>>11905045
Big head mode

>>11905121
Pit Viper's special was ass, and it somewhat returns in head-on I think (idk)

post tits

>>11907531
Would.

>>11907531
Wouldn't.
989 was so trashy

>>11906790
Paint ball games are so goofy.

>>11906790
Lost media tards will ignore this.

>>11908047
>>11906790
So basically Splatoon?
Guess would have been fun. Perhaps instead of small brawl.

>>11910273
>Splatoon
pretty sure lt would've been a standard shooter but with paintballs instead of bullets

>>11908034
loved this stage

>>11898204
Machine gun> yeehaw> minion special> napalm

>>11912786
Fuck the spider getting in my way of the Power missile.

>>11895432 (OP)
For me it's Darkside. Both the insanely broken version in TM1 and the slightly less broken but still good version in TM Black. Have to run Hammerhead and Mr. Slam in TM2 because no Darkside.

I used to dominate with Mr. Grimm in TM2 in both story mode and against my friends as a kid, but I have no idea how. When I play him now I just die.

>>11904917
TM2's art is so good when it isn't getting deep fried by digital effects and the PSX's resolution.

So Head-On is first right?

>>11904917
Are there more? And did the artist also do Jet Moto?

I was a Shadowfag

>>11915702
The game was so forgettable I forgot to include it. Probably between V8-2 and TM1.

>>11915960
>V8-2
what was wrong with it?

>>11912870
>insanely broken version in TM1
He is pretty bad though.
Unless you freeze good luck getting near enemies to ram them in the correct way.

>>11915698
Ryan Drummond and John St. John are also in TM4 as Pizza Boy and Trash Man respectively

>>11915973
Mediocre maps, gimmicky transformations.
