I've done a fair bit of swooping recently, and I wondered what people's favourite track was?

Was it the futuristic Telos, the deserts of Tatooine, the Medievil-ish Onderon, the watery Manaan or some other? Or don't you even hit the track?

 

Mine is Onderon. It is very challenging compared to the rest, and the course is so much more unique and different to the others.

I lykj Nar Shaddaa

Taris- This race was very boring...just meant for learning Swoop racing

Tatooine- This one never worked for me on my PC, so I can't tell besides I totally hate that bug that caused a sub-mission to be forever stuck in my journal

Manaan- Best swoop track of Kotor

 

Now, in general, KOTOR2 swoop-racing was alot worse than swoop racing in kotor1... but track-specific:

 

Telos- Total Suckage. Don't know if it was because of the bugs, but I totally hate this one

Nar Shaddaa- Suckage. Besides the fact that this track is WAY too easy to win (crashing 20 times and you still win :shifty: ) the opposite riders, vents and such were not alot of fun... A well, only needed once; no need to drive good (hell, I couldn't even loose it the one time I tried to) did cause a fast amount of credits...

Onderon- Best one of Kotor2. A spefic mine planted on a point where the game always stuttered did cause alot of irritation, as was the "missing of jump pads when you hit them dead-on" bug that was happening here very often...

I preferred the Swoop racing in K1 ... more like Pole Position rather than the 3D JUMP JUMP stuff...

 

I'm a fudgy old man, you see... :p

I don't think it helped your experience of the swoop tracks that you are the "Bug Magnet", as you wrote in the Amusing Glitches thread on the Spoilers Forum.

I think that it's intentional that it's impossible to lose this track after you take on the droid.

 

Anyway, my favourite track is Onderon. I liked the 'Medievil-ish' style, as Styur put it.

Taris. I dispise the swoop races in K2. They suck.

I had to play Tatooine with heaps and heaps of lag cos I didn't have my new desktop back then.

Overall I'd have to say Manaan even though Tatooine pays a lot better. I'll always race in them all though.

 

I got hit with the forfeit bug so I didn't end up racing much in K2.

I've won all the swoop races before, and I have to say that Onderon's my favourite. Tatooines next though.

I liked Manaan's swoop track, it was the only thing the planet was good for.

Funny, I am pretty much a klutz, but I much preferred racing in K2. It was much easier for me, because the tracks are longer, so you can be a little sloppy and still win. The pads aren't so tightly spaced too, so it is not so difficult to hit those that matter. I also prefer the whole 3D aspect and the trappings are much more atmospheric.

they were all very easy to me. I really liked Manaan and Onderon.

Manaan because the music motivates me and I always do my best there. My best time is 19.54 seconds. Tatooine is always really hard for me but, I always clean up on Manaan. And plus you can get Light Side Points twice from that Ithorian.

soz matty but i lyk nar shadda

 

Is that AIMese or Nerdling?

 

I hated the swoops on K2. The simplicity of the K1 tracks was much better.

Taris...as its the only one I could win on, LOL :-"

Taris and Tatooine were pretty good tracks.

i like manaan and tatooine also

Man did I suck at Onderon well and swoop racing in general but it probably took me 30 times until I won on Onderon
