EDITS: It has come to my attention that I've made a mistake 18:29, where I write 1st gear starts at 100 and 2nd gear starts at 101. This of course does not make sense. 1st gear starts at 0. Furthermore i mentioned at 3:30 that you need the standard or club acces to race wr ghosts. That is wrong, you need to get the club access of the game. UPDATE: The game has now added Steering limiters by pressing 1 through 9 on your keyboard! This means that the controller exclusive/favorized tricks mentioned at 8:41 and 11:31 are doable on keyboards now!

[@lordnoom4919]

You also forgot to mention that you can bugslide on road blocks aswell. But really good content rigth here keep it up,.

[@rcoder01]

You also can't even see the records with standard edition

@Vihaan Abdullah Thank you, I signed up and it seems to work =) I appreciate it !!

[@Cashbeee]

I really like how you actually described *how* to steer during a bobslay curve. Every other tutorial only mentions that you want to stay between the red lines, but never do they say how you can do that. I noticed that not only you steer softly, you also NEVER COUNTERSTEER when your car wiggles between the lines.

[@goose7125]

hate to be that guy, but "bobslay" -> "bobsleigh"

[@alexforbes2551]

@@goose7125 I think you love to be that guy

[@ocoolwow]

I countersteer ALL THE TIME in bobsled, usually don't have a problem

[@Lee-One]

@@alexforbes2551 he’s still not wrong. Better to be correct than going around thinking you are while you’re not.

[@FlinkTM]

Promised and delivered. Very nice!

[@Speedself]

What a well put together guide, everything important is covered! I would maybe just mention the Trackmania School (TMS) campaigns that can be a great way to understand better / get better on specific surfaces!

[@Jimbomies]

For a channel with 200 subscribers, I was not expecting quality like this. Amazing video.

[@thewhitephoenix_]

This is a really great guide, helps me out a lot! Thanks Jake!

[@cheezey3295]

thank you for these high quality tutorials, no one else has anything like this, yours goes into far more details.

[@Sneerfuljam]

What an amazing complete video!! I was looking so long for a video that finally explained the lucky reactor booster tricks!!

[@munkymunk9053]

Thank you for this, great guide! I just started playing today and am getting some author medals on the Winter 2022 maps thanks to you and a couple other helpful creators. This community seems great and I look forward to spending more time with this game and meeting more people like yourself in it!

[@elington]

This is a great guide, as someone returning to Trackmania it's really nice to have a complete guide on all things old and new in the game. Thanks!

[@zorrothebug]

This guide is what is needed and you put it together really well. Every single technique is explained calmly and in slow pace with clear input visuals. It stands out of so many others which show the technique but do not explain how to get there, or even when explaining they don't say what details to look out for and why. Very well done! Thank you!

[@drtrann2411]

Thanks for this man! I'm new to Trackmania and saw someone recommended your videos on Reddit. Subbed w/ notifications! Looking forward to more!

[@BombDoggy]

Thanks this is awesome, as a new player I had difficulties learning some of these things as the majority of videos are just inputs with examples, and maybe a written explanation. The explanation overlayed with audio definitely helps with how I learn. Thanks dude

[@TheWolfenMole]

This is EXACTLY what I needed, I'm sure this video will help a lot of people, thank you! 😁

[@charmiender6179]

Thanks you so much for this amazing video! I really understood all the tricks, as you explained them very well in the time frame you had. Keep up this amazing work, great job!

[@durwoodwhitman8808]

Very nicely done video. I am a simulator driver so these little mechanics is making a huge difference in my times. you made it very easy to understand and got so much info into such a small video.

[@XionSteel]

spooky, i was just thinking at work how i wanted to look up videos on doing certain tricks on different surfaces to get better at the game and here is your video recommended in my feed with all the tricks. thank you. 🙏

[@nathanav1634]

Excellent, thank you. As a new player who came to the game having randomly stumbled on the D07 video by Wirtual, this is precisely what I needed. Well-explained and well-produced

[@diacoal2433]

No clickbait, clear, useful and precise information. Very good guide, even the like/dislike ratio tells a lot about the quality of this!

[@poloi3440]

The quality of this video is incredible. Thank you a lot :D

[@engineergaming3820]

Instant sub! The one thing I feel lacks in TM is that we have little good tutorials, and for a newer player it's impossible to learn the basics alone. Thank you for this

[@lexacutable]

Thanks so much for this! I would describe myself as a casual/intermediate level player, and I've looked at similar sorts of guides and paid attention to streams but this is the first time I've seen advice that explains which techniques and mechanics are worth worrying about at different skill levels. Helps me feel less overwhelmed and able to prioritise what I'm worrying about while playing.

[@radix2830]

Great Video! Thats what TM needed for new players!

[@4x31TV]

Great video man! Downloaded TrackMania yesterday and this video was very helpful.

[@spicymojito5572]

FINALLY a good video explaining the gears in an easy to understand way. I never really grasped it, but now I do. Same with the neoslide. The rest of the video is superb too. Thanks! The only feedback I have is that the video is a bit quiet, I had to turn up my audio 2 times as much as I do on other KZbin vids.

[@GravyTraining]

Brand new to the game, but watched a lot of gameplay videos before this. Finally downloaded the game and it's a lot to learn all at once. Your vide is the best so far, in a large part because you actually talk during them, but you present things in a way that is easy to follow. If you haven't done it already, I would love to see a video on tackling certain scenarios, finding the best line, and that sort of thing. Thanks for the great content!

[@ayyansea2138]

awesome video, covers pretty much everything you need to know if you're a beginner or even somewhat experienced

[@stimy7193]

It has been so helpful as a beginner! You definetely deserve more subs.. Keep up man!!

[@illanr.n.945]

Great collection of everything you need to know, great vid!

[@eclipseeffigy]

Thanks dude, great tips and tricks. Just started Trackmania and feel so confused about what's affecting steering and acc-/deceleration & the game really does nothing to explain it -- the Training maps are there but there's no explanation whatsoever of what the surfaces actually do. You're a huge help!

[@srenstormsen2100]

Yoo incredibly high quality video dude. I'm getting into trackmania right now and this helped me a ton. Plus, noticed you're a fellow dane. Respekt bror.

[@Last667]

If Jnic weren’t doing these vids,we wouldn’t have good settings and and good skills so hats off to this guy for taking the time to do this for us

[@IschaDeVries]

Really great tutorial, love that it's succinct so I can always come back and quickly watch for a trick I'm struggling with Been watching since TM2020 released but haven't played much cause I thought the skill ceiling was too high but this might get me started! thank you!

[@Skateurelement]

Very well exectued tutorial. I don't comment often but you sincelery deserve the support !

[@Allen_lena]

Thank you for this video. I knew most of the stuff (at least in theory), but it really is helpful and your explanations are great. Also, I finally got the neoslide with just one brake tap, but Trabadia's tutorial shows it with 2 taps and I find that the timing is way more forgiving on controller (but maybe you lose a couple thousandths). Way easier for begginers like me, who played TMNF 12 years ago and I'm only actually learning now.

[@boringsloth]

Thank you so much for this tutorial! Helps me a lot!

[@kriskeersmaekers233]

Bugsliding is real useful in royal, I initially believed you had to land into it and hold steer the whole time but neither of those are true, it a really flexible tool and its probaly useful in half of the royal maps

[@Jnic]

Absolutely agreed! This video was released before any news of royale was ever public though 🙏

[@kostasbilalis3991]

Hi there Jake, I just discovered your channel. Excellent work! Very helpful. Everything that matters is in the video. I would propose though to mention the "drift cancel". It is a bit obvious how to do it and why, but you have to discover it and personally changed my whole driving.

I smell danish, haha? 🇩🇰 I just stumbled upon your videos, and I must say that you make some of the best TM content out there. Great production and easy to understand. Is it possible for you to make some sort of guide on plastic or the different kind of track-styles (tech, full speed etc.)? Especially wet tires on plastic, which I have big problems with on this seasons 08! New subscriber here for sure

[@febagi]

[@Paul-ny2xy]

[@DarknessEoL]

Saw someone else mentioning maybe adding a water tricks section. I half agree since they just recently changed the ratios for action keys. Water tricks are a little harder now anyway. I think an "Additional Trackmania Tips and Tricks" video would be greatly welcomed. Could cover those "Track specific" tricks like ice 360s and whatnot. Maybe a video covering the different track genres and typically how to play them. (Like new players confusing nascar tracks with fullspeed now knowing you don't break, just release the gas). Anyway, great video. Definitely helpful. Makes me wanna actually try to get good at neoslides and when to s4d.
