The Trials forums have a bunch of that kind of stuff. That's where I learned the workarounds for my particular performance issues but, as magimix's experience shows, they may not work for you. I've seen a bunch of posts that say "keep letting us know about issues," so they at least seem to want to support the game. As is usual with this sort of stuff, I wouldn't be surprised if they can't and/or won't disclose exactly what's been fixed/not fixed/whatever until they're certain as to what will actually BE fixed/not fixed/whatever in a patch. Promising a bunch of fixes which don't end up happening, or promising a hard date for a patch that may or may not actually be possible to meet would probably cause more harm than good as far as reputation goes.

If their response to the issues around Evo is anything to go by, they will not spare a single gently caress to fix the performance of Fusion. Luckily the Fusion port isn't as dreadful as the Evo one was on launch.

Even a general "Here's when we're planning on adding in user-created supercross/give you more options in track central" message would go a long way. The game has been out for a month now and there's still no "RedLynx picks" or the option to choose how to view the track list. May I never bitch about GTA V's launch ever again.

GTA V Online still doesn't have heists, and Rockstar goes out of their way to remove fun with just about every patch. You can spend $100 from your irl credit card for video game money, though!

TheGreatGildersneeze posted:Yeah, I wasn't trying to handwave that or anything. Hell, I never knew those little notification things were such a hassle for games to deal with. Just suggesting what worked for me, since I was having the same issue (seemingly random performance drops/stabilizations for non-fixed periods of time). As I edited into my previous post, this got the game running at a solid 60FPS on my old rear end i5-750/GTX-670 based system at 1080p with the default "high" settings, fullscreen. I do have to turn it down a bit while streaming because encoding/sending the data eats up enough CPU to cause stuttering. Unfortunately, this doesn't seem like it'll help your issue. In handsight, my post was way, way pissy (I blame old age). Sorry about that. There was good information in your post, and hopefully it'll benefit others at the least. Sometimes I stick with it to see whether or not I can race effectively in slo-mo. Short version: No I can't. It is curiously challenging  I'm in a wierd place with Trials at the moment. Since I've sacrificed two DS4s to this game, I'm somewhat nervy about using my third for Trials until I at least get the other two RMA'd. I spent some time instead mucking around, seeing how playable I'd find things if I used face-buttons for gas instead of the trigger.

magimix posted:HAHAAaaa! Getting 'digital-gas' plats now. Suck it, fragile triggers  Pretty much anything but the slow long hill climbs can be done with the button (rapid tapping only works so much for so long). If you're good enough with bike control to keep momentum up then it reduces the need further. I've played a lot of the previous games with an arcade stick too (rider movement is digital isn't it?) but pretty sure most of my best times have been with a controller with analog mixed in here and there.

Got my first Extreme plat earlier (yes, it was for the easy one  ), and spent some time racing some great Rabbit-only custom tracks (nearly 9000 tracks on PS4 TC - and they aren't *all* "impossible stairs" or "don't move" ones! ). It is coming together, but there is still work to be done.

Do the previous games have the same Portal-style 'post apocalyptic robots put innocent people through insane tracks' stuff in the background as this one does? The dialogue's absolutely brilliant (at least the first time you hear it).

I haven't really missed it, I've never felt like previous trials games have been missing anything by not having a story. Yeah, I had that stuff on while initially grinding out track access, but then turned it off along with the music. Unless you coast over a track in fairly sedate manner, you'll not have much opportunity to pay attention to that stuff in any case. It was never going to work well in a game where you might be insta-restarting every few seconds while grinding medals. Still, that they made it an audio-only thing means it doesn't disrupt the flow of the game, and that you can turn it off means it won't drive you spare. All things considered, it could have been a whole lot worse! Still, for me it is broadly indicative of why, for all that I like Fusion, it doesn't wow me like Evo did. What little that is new isn't core to the experience, nor especially worthwhile on its own merits. FMX is kind of a bust, and the ATV really is the 'anti-Trials' to far as enjoyable and versatile racing goes. Then there are the various regressions from Evo to Fusion; features not there at launch, design changes (to Track Central for example) that have made things worse, and little details that I miss (for example, you cannot set rivals in Fusion). There is scope for refinement over time, and we all know about the DLC plans, but until we *see* that stuff, we can't take it for granted that there will be a decent balance of challening tracks therein. I've a very real concern that much of the DLC will be new FMX tracks or ATV tracks, will introduce new vehicles that are kind of pointless, or Trials tracks that too much fall into the Beginner, Easy, and Medium tiers.

I know I've been incredibly negative about Fusion so far, but I do have some hope that the DLC can turn things around. The two Trials Evolution DLC packs contained some of my favourite Trials levels ever, and the difficulty curve was pretty much bang on. They're tougher than the main game, (so the toughest medium courses definitely edge into Hard etc) but not ludicrously so. Plus, they introduced the BMX bike.

FYI it appears on the PC version that they patched the announcers voices. Now they will play one time, get interrupted if you die, and won't play again unless you restart the entire level.

When your setting times that's every time I screw it up. Switched them off ages ago, do they actually say anything of importance? Im assuming there will be some long easter egg that will take years to find.

You'll figure out the basics of the game really fast; it can be boiled down to throttle, brake and lean, but the nuances of how the three mechanics interact with each other and the track/bike are their own learning curve. Watch some replays to see how others that are faster than you beat the tracks for some ideas. edit: be sure to add yourself to the PC list in the OP if you play on PC, and friend everybody on there through uplay, there's some really skilled goons on all three consoles

I feel like the 'digital gas' thing is starting to come together. After a bumpy period of getting used to things, I've started get plats again, and have improved some PBs on the extreme tracks. Next thing you know, I'll be abandoning the left-stick too!

Looking more and more forward to the day when x bone controller will work on PC because of the dpad patent by Nintendo finally running out so gamers can use functional non-lovely dpads for once outside of Nintendo's realm.

Here's another track I've made for PS4, go play it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4vF9ejz7iQA Title is Frosty Failure, author is Piratenippie (i, not an L). I put a lot of work into the visual flair for this one, I really like the look of that Frost Bite extreme track and mimicked it.

It's dumb because they have 4 platforms' worth of track central now, sounds like XBone is the most popular platform followed by PS4, 360, and then PC. They're supposed to be taking the best from each platform and featuring them on the track central menu, at least I think that's what the 5 or 6 that are featured are.

Fusion (except for the garage menu slowness which isn't a big deal really, just annoying since except when changing bike/clothes you don't need the models to load text is fine) runs really well on PC, certainly better than the terrible port that Evo was. Too bad no demo currently so you can't test it before buying. There is also no skill range left out of the PC Uplay friends list, plenty of goon times to challenge. mr. nobody fucked around with this message at 13:23 on May 17, 2014 |

While I think that the ATV as an addition is bunk, and that FMX is disappointing (though could be refined), the track challenges are definitely an addition to the game that is pretty much all good (even the tricks work well within this framework). A nice mix of technical challenges, minor puzzles, and flat-out wierd loving poo poo. One or two in particular seem finicky to the point of being busted (for example, Pyromaniac ), but for the most part I've had great fun grinding out 50+ of the drat thing things today
