Title: CM Eye Mode Speed
Post by: Killer91 on April 21, 2010, 11:05:23 AM

I was messing around offline today i wondered how fast you could go in CM Eye mode. I covered 25 1/2 sectors (or 512.5 miles) in 37 seconds (0.61 minutes).
take the distance (512.5 mi) divide by time (0.61 min) and you get 840 mph  :x   Now thats moving!

Oh the boredom of a wednesday morning  :noid

37 seconds may well be 0.61 minutes but it's only 0.0103 hours

speed in mph is actually 512.5 / 0.0103 = 49,757 mph

Which sounds more impressive:

840 miles per minute

or

49,757 miles per hour



1 mile per minute

or

60 miles per hour

What's more fun is going off the side of the map to the ghost world.

The AH world is flat I tell you, not round! Be careful, you can fall off the edge into the other arenas. :lol

ummmmm.. ya what he said  :rofl and to think it was right there on the tip of my toung.

Ps. hitech your post just doest work right i know cuz i said so  :rofl j/k ... coad geeks and there fancy writing  :headscratch:
