So I am guessing these ramps are not going to be cheap, and we all know they are a weak point in the game (almost every Taxi I have ever seen has at least a crack in the spinout ramp)
So would these new ones be any stronger than the originals? or are they made of the same materials?
Is there a possibility of someone manufacturing some sort of protector(s) for the ramp to strengthen high risk areas?
Still excited to see these released
Love Taxi and it is anoying that I can't get my Spinout past 10K
Fantastic! A choice between red and blue, both great, don't know which looks best. I look forward to seeing what a blue one looks like installed in a machine
So in my impatience, I took out my knackered spinout ramp and filled and glued it all over to get it back into being as close to a solid piece as I can.
It now works as it should, in that it will now go past 100K and back up to 25k (but looks crap) but I can't believe how much it changes the game, if you are playing your strategy right, by locking and releasing the balls at every opportunity, you can make probably as much as 50% of your score from the spinout ramp alone!
It adds a whole new dimension to the game having a working spinout ramp! I guess most people already know this, but if you've never played a Taxi with a fully working spinout ramp (not sure that I have) then you won't have realised!
Excited more than ever to get a nice new one now
Quoted from SadSack:I usually shoot to pickup a passenger.
On your first ball right?
You surely don't want to miss 2x 100K or 3x 100k on your second and third balls, up to 5 times per ball before your jackpot? That's 1.5million on ball 3
Woah, I just checked the thread and you only posted 32 seconds ago lol
That's fantastic news on the special price! I'm up for one of those definitely!
Now I've got the red vs blue dilemma! lol
Would be nice to see blue installed
PS. IS it me, or do the photos look like there are 2 images layered ontop of each other?
Thankyou for the pictures, the blue does indeed look very nice!
Oh well only one more day to decide! lol
I expect a mad rush for these
Chickened out going for blue and ordered red yesterday
I look forward to receiving it.
I really appreciate TwistedPins offering these at a good price and I really hope they do well out of them! This is a part that a lot of people have wanted for a long time, and we can see the orders are flooding in. Good work guys!
Nice job on the reinforced tabs at the front, don't know if the original has that or not as mine are broken off on my original
