THE Mars gate Jump is Arbitrary!!!!! At Least once a race I wont be able to make that jump and theres NO REASON WHY!!!! Ive going full speed 1st place into that warp jump and a lot of the time dont make it!!??!? Ive have also tried going Slower, Hitting the Middle or Sides or a combination of the 4 and To NO AVAIL OF CONSISTENTCY!?!?! IS there some sort of trick like pitch the nose up b4 u go in the teleporter!!?? This Portal is VERY infuriating and is the reason y i have lost racers because of its Abitrary behaviour! If there was a reason like if it turned Red or Closed u wouldnt make it, i would have no problem, but this is not the case!! COULD Someone Please give me an answer??
Edit: Thank you all for the Quick Help and Confirming im not the only one with the problem.
The problem most likely to b The Racing helm perk pitching ur nose down making u fall in the Jump. Ive yet to TEST it out myself but a few have gave me that explaination and to pitch ur nose of the sparrow up right b4 the teleporter! Hope it helps! And Good Racing!!! XP
You have a helmet that lets you fall quicker or slower depending on how your left sick is tilted. If you are in the air and hold forward you fall much quicker. That is why you don't make it. Don't like pulling back? Change the helmet ability.
It's because you have the race helm on and you're pressing up on the left stick naturally while jumping and that brings your sparrow down, missing the jump.
