Tron Lightcycle vs Legacy Lightcycle

on Thursday, May, 26, 2011 1:37 PM
So Flynn's lightcycle was the fastest on the Grid, but does that mean it would have eaten the Legacy bikes for bit-breakfast?

In considering the differences I think it comes down to one thing in favor of the Legacy bikes:

Braking


The legacy bikes could brake, which negates the old bikes pure speed. The old bike could stop, but not break.

there isn't any evidence movie wise that flynn's cycle couldn't break... not onyl that his cycle is genration 2...not genration 1....and acording to the TRON BETRAYAL comic...and using his lighty cycle in TRON EVOLUTION..yes..his cycle can break..where to buy abortion pill abortion types buy abortion pill online

Actually I did a poor job with the initial outline. I referenced Flynn's vintage bike, but what I was thinking was the Generation #1 bikes which Flynn, Ram, and Tron had.

So lets leave Flynn's vintage bike out of the equation, it was a unique cycle designed for his own enjoyment.

And I'm only using the two movies as cannon reference.

Actually, he used it in lightcycle tournaments because he's a cheap bastard.

Oh wait, that's me.

Not just you, TRON.dll!
I prefer the old-school lightcycle as well. Mine changes color over distance, and for some reason the engine cowling colors flicker, but that's what I get for buying a used bike, yuk yuk yuk.

I think it was the lightcycle grid itself that dictated the behavior of the bikes in the first movie. Remember that the bikes handled more or less like normal motorcycles once they escaped "into the wild" - but while on the lightcycle grid, they were unable to come to a full stop and could only make right-angle turns. The new arena on Flynn's Grid had a much less-restrictive ruleset. ; )

As far as the the bikes themselves go, though, I imagine Flynn's personal lightcycle would kick the crap out of the standard models, including Clu's custom edition. That was Flynn's baby, the Grid equivalent to the Ducati he left in the real world. I imagine he lavished the same kind of TLC on it that he used to give the Ducati, too, lovingly polishing the code to perfection over the course of a thousand cycles. ('Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance', man. ; ) )

I'm still a little disappointed that we didn't get a highway chase involving Sam on his dad's bike vs. Clu's Black Guard bikers, but a second lightcycle sequence might have been overkill. I'm hoping for one in the sequel, though - I really want to see what Flynn's bike can do.

The fastest lightcycle on the grid and the most unique thing one in existence (because there's only one) and it now belongs to a homeless program.

That was the moment I began to really dislike the character of Sam. order abortion pill abortion pill buy online where to buy abortion pill

Well, it doesn't really belong to the homeless program anymore - Clu's goons recovered it, and traced it back to its source. So I'd like to think it's tucked safely away in an impound lot/archive bin somewhere, and will turn up again in a future film.

You can never have too much light cycle action! I was kind of disappointed upon first viewing that there was only one light cycle sequence.

Right on, Zuse! That's why we have GLTron and other games like that!

Or why a lot of us spend time making light cycle animations...

Technically Flynn's bike is more advanced than the ones we saw in "TRON" since it was a second generation bike and they were first generations.

Well, it was Flynn, wasn't it? He could have designed a bike that only looked like a first-generation but outperformed a Legacy model. 3D movement, too. I'm sure up-and-down on the Y-axis would startle more than a few opponents.

I think generation one bikes can brake, but only when they aren't on a Light-Cycle grid.

They were using brakes in the canyons and the definitely could make them just stop, practically on a dime.

I dunno about being faster, but the Legacy cycles may be more maneuverable than the original cycles (at least on the game grid anyway.)

I think the stats given by the Tron Evolution game (PS3, 360, PC version) give a good idea of what the possible benefits/drawbacks are to the different cycle gens. For instance the gen 2 may have the best top speed, but it doesn't have very good acceleration or durability. Gen 4 has best acceleration but poor top speed. Gen 5 is a good well rounded cycle.

i recall reading that the original bikes had disabled brakes on the game grid... think that was in the tron wiki. But yeah, we see Tron, Ram, and Flynn brake and derezz their bikes one they escaped from the game grid. order abortion pill abortion pill buy online where to buy abortion pillwhere to buy abortion pill abortion types buy abortion pill online

Yes, this. A second Games lightcycle sequence may have been overkill (maybe). A street chase, like Cops in the Grid? Yes please.

What do you want? I'm busy.


Program, please!


Chaos.... good news.

Not to mention the G2 renders disc attacks unavailable with its canopy. Put the two side to side on the grid and the guy on the G5 could just put his disc through the window and take the G2 rider's head off.where to buy abortion pill abortion types buy abortion pill online
