Rayman Pirate-Community

I got a better score on HHQ in R3 and when I submitted my score in the Hall of Fame, it no longer showed up, and I've lost about 3500 tings!
Does anyone know what's going on?

I don’t play r3 so I wouldn’t know, but yeah sure odd

Should I contact an admin or something?

Did you try to just submit the score again? And why did you double-post here AND in the Rayman 3 thread?

I posted in the R3 thread, and here bc this the thread I'm on the most.
Also, typed it in like 5 times, it turns out I was typing the "=" as the plus symbol

Glad you got this sorted out!

And as long as we're on the subject - here's one opinion that will probably be REALLY unpopular:

The combo system of Rayman 3 for scoring is a nuisance, and the competition of replaying levels ad nauseam to get an ever higher score is annoying.

I get why that could be annoying, as you could mess up a combo, and as a result, the whole level.
Personally I find it to be a lot of fun, but I get why someone wouldn't.

Here's another unpopular opinion: Rayman 3 GBA is a good game.

Actually, I think there would be quite a few people who would agree on one or both of those points (I actually agree on both points). Though I suspect dr_st was joking...

I'm not sure, you could be right. Although it can be hard to tell what is sarcasm and what is not through text sometimes.

It's true, I could be wrong, and if it was a bad assumption, my apologies.

That being said, I'm serious though when I said R3 GBA is a good game. It's actually decent compared to the other original handheld games out there

Honestly, it's my favorite handheld Rayman game , also it's weird seeing you with a new profile lol.
(By the way, thx for the tings! )

Well yes, that's because I gave a lot of Tings away to a good friend of mine
Unfortunately, I overshot it and went past the rank I wanted (which was Joe)

NOOO

Also, thanks for calling me a good friend
It's only like my 10th day on here and this community has been so cool.

I’ve only played r3 a handful of times so I can’t really answer that

Rayman 3 could have used a quicksave feature, I'll say that much! If it had, it probably wouldn't have taken over a decade for players to reach 900k. I don't know if that's a good thing...

But yeah, dr_st is right. Restarting DOTK7 over and over to perfect the opening combo, most of my thoughts were, "couldn't I be doing something better with my time? "

With all that was said - I do feel that there is one more round of improvements of the R3 score in my future. When I get around to it.

R3 GBA is a very nice game. GBA limits and technical deficiencies aside - it flows well and has a good amount of unique / interesting content. Like characters and concepts that were scrapped from the mainline game. A bit like Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time for GBA, actually.

I played it once, it’s definitely good just the emulator was trash

I use Visual Boy Advance for all my GBA games, and found it OK. What did you use?

I use mGBA

I forgot but my brother frequently uses retrogames.cc for all his gba stuff but I doubt it was that
