MIB tips for left and right hand lanes

[drj1950]

Always looking for more points

Heading up there tomorrow, anyone else going to be there?

 

[drj1950]

Have to work tomorrow was there last Tuesday lots of sensors did not work and I got soaked on top of it.They did run both sides though

 

[noice]

Fire Hydrant didn't seem to work on the left track. Also the right window, next to the one you hear glass breaking didn't seem to be working.

Both sides were running by noon. Maxed out a lot, but my friend and I couldn't both max out in the same cart.

Some of the guns are in need of fixing, one has no light and no sound, and another wasn't hitting the sensors properly.

Oh, and the biggest highlight was the final score from one of the rides.

I went with 2 friends this time, one who is familiar with the ride and can max out often, and the other who has hardly played it. So one of the times it was me and my friend who has hardly played it on the left track, and my other friend on the right. The average score was 296,9xx to 296,6xx. We had won by only a few hundred points.

Hope they bring every sensor back soon makes it faster to max if the better ones stay on

Let me first introduce myself. I am currently a US AP holder in Atlanta that gets down to Orlando around once a month. I've maxed MIB, but I am working on being able to do it consistently. Right now my average score is about 800,000. I just finished reading this entire thread and have a few comments/questions:

1) Universal Excitement has some good ride photos at this new link, http://www.universalexcitement.com/STUDIOS/MENINBLACK/MENINBLACK.htm It has a great image on a drop down alien and its sensors. Anyone know of any other good MIB images?

2) I have read about sensors in a blind in the ambush area. Is this a working sensor? If so, where are the blinds and where is the sensor(s) in the blinds?

3) I also read about some sensors on a wire mesh screen in the ambush area? Anyone currently getting points on it? If so, where are you aiming?

4) Is the Speilberg alien worth much in points? I looked at a good photo of this on that Universal Excitement link and it looks like the sensors are in a line from top to bottom of the center of the right section of the paper? Anyone able to confirm or correct this?

5) I know the target selection in the Times Square area is slim, but after the exhaust port shuts down and you go in to that last U-turn I am at a loss for targets. Any suggestions?

6) I will be at US most of the day Wednesday, May 13th. I would enjoy getting together with veterans to see how they work or anyone else just to have some fun shooting aliens.

nd its sensors. Anyone know of any other good MIB images?

2) I have read about sensors in a blind in the ambush area. Is this a working sensor? If so, where are the blinds and where is the sensor(s) in the blinds?

The sensors are on the far right on the blinds. They are even with the top of the alien's spinning head. They are only on the red track. (Well they do have them on the green track but the sensors aren't working.)

3) I also read about some sensors on a wire mesh screen in the ambush area? Anyone currently getting points on it? If so, where are you aiming?

I think this is the same target as the blinds. They are behind the screen on a window with blinds.

4) Is the Speilberg alien worth much in points?

This one isn't worth very much. I usually go for the fire hydrant or the baby carriage during that time. If you are on the red track, the pug dog on the news stand is worth the most points. The points get higher each time you hit the dog. It is right before Spielberg. the sensor is on the dog's collar on the dog tag that hangs down.

5) I know the target selection in the Times Square area is slim, but after the exhaust port shuts down and you go in to that last U-turn I am at a loss for targets. Any suggestions?

This was usually the time I went for the sensors on the big, big bug. But since those sensors aren't working there really isn't any thing worth shooting. I usually just hold down the red button to make sure that I'm not locked out of the bonus points.

If the exhaust isn't working or there isn't a car on the other side, shoot the billboard of the eyeglasses instead of the exhaust. It gives the same amount of points as the exhaust.

I still can't max out!

Me either! But someday!!

aliens.

Gee lots of flash photos there. It would really have sucked to wait in line for your first ride on MIB ever and the person in the car next to you is taking flash pictures

I have been on rides where I made a point of going when no one else was there. This way I could take pics without disturbing anyone. I hope this is the case. I wanted to throttle the guy on my last trip to POTC that kept snapping flash pics of everything.

Anybody riding with me and taking flash photos would not be a good thing for the idiot holding the camera! Amazing the things that can fall out of the car while it is spinning!!

Two weeks ago DW and I went.With all the reading from this thrad I scored 700,plus.So DW asked how did you do that,and I told her all the secrets she never took the time to read.
Needless to say she beat me 4 out of 7.I will never tell her another thing again after the ragging she gave me.She MAXED OUT 2TIMES!!

The trouble comes from those idiots who think just because they are in a ride car alone, but fail to take into consideration all the people in the cars ahead/behind/ and beside them that are negatively effected just because they need to take flash shots.

So what your saying is... You give lessons??

 

[donaldduck352]

I will never tell her a thing again about MIB.She will have to read it her self..
But I love telling peeps that never rode to keep the trigger pulled at alltimes tho..
I never maxed out and DW does it twice in a row...........

 

[noice]

Was there today, but only rode it twice because I was with family. Maxed out both times. Everything seemed to be working except the fire hydrant guy.

Good to hear may go on Tuesday

I have discovered a good use for MIB skills. I met a VERY attractive woman in the single rider line Wednesday. Realizing I had been on the ride before, she started asking for tips and she made sure we rode together. We ended up spending the entire day together and have swapped invites to our respective home states/provinces (she's from Newfoundland). I can't tell you how much I regretted that being my last day in Orlando.

Now if I could just figure out a practical use for my old video game skills.......

Managed to score 999,999 multiple times before we met. Mr. Fire Hydrant did not seem to want to give up any points. Found out that I did better with only one side running in the last area. With both sides running there were so many red dots around the other car's exhaust port it was hard to tell which was mine. The parking meter alien is my friend. Still working on which targets to shoot at after the crash. I did manage to figure out which ones made the breaking glass sound and aim more at sensors than aliens.
