Why must you starve me with puny pro and fort schemes? Why didn't you put a ranked rope race in this game, and also if there is going to be PC online multiplayer, can you add it in there?

I would really like team 17 to add a ranked rope race. Wouldn't you?

Yes, although that's probably only because playing W:A Online for 2 & a half Years means I'm pretty good with the Rope. I haven't lost a W2:A Rope Race Once.

I haven't lost a rope race.... yet.


If it means more challenging players instead of the nooby ones you occasionally get, yes.

I wish there was a ranked rope race as well. I haven't played with anyone yet who was decent with the rope. If you guys ever need another wormer to rope race with just send me a message of when you're going to play.

Ranked rope racing would be very nice! Me and a friend spend hours competing in rope racing.

If you can beat me, call me to a match.

I'm behind you iggy on a ranked rope race. Why they excluded it I don't know!

I'm also finding it hard to get a rope racing challenge! Unfortunately I think the really good players are going to find it hard to find each other, I suggest we try and circulate gamertags of people that want to play rope racing with other good racers?

My best time on easy race 1 is 14.98 [edit: Make that 14.42 :D]

I'm SURE there's someone out there better than me, but not being able to find a challenge is giving me a big head and making me think that maybe I'm the best. Someone prove me wrong :)

My nick is alexterra.No way, I just tried it right now. I can't even imagine how you do that, but I bet you've got to be better at those transitions to the next level down.

Hi Alex, good to see you online, nice to have a more challenging opponent.

Shame nobody else seems to be getting in touch. Are good rope racers that rare?

If I'm that good I might try and post some vids on youtube :o

Cheater. :p

I've not tried setting a record myself, but whenever I play random people I always win. :cool:

Well, for starters i'm happy that Rope Raping isn't in Ranked Matches. In fact, RR feels to be more of a mini-game, rather then a full match where everybody has a chance to win. This racing would be too unfair of the newbies and even to somewhat experienced worms like myself. On ranked, i feel it would alienate just too many gamers from it. But like this, it's casual-enough without being "afraid" of losing anything too much (except couple beers to your buddy, if things don't go as you planned :) and everybody has the chance to try it out.

I rarely ever play RR for it's competetive racing nature, it's just not really fun to me. Even if i would be somehow very good on roping, i propably even then would consider it boring going through all those short, simple routes. However, i haven't never played further the first two levels, so there might be more interesting maps ahead (although i doubt that alot). I'm happy though that they included the whole mode, since a good bunch of you seem to enjoy it plenty.

It's also quite fun because people love time trials/races for any game.
