The Second track in the Red Lynx vs All-Stars (Fish and Ships) I would not classify as Easy in the sense that the game's previous scaling has laid out. Just saying'.

Great DC so far. Truly my only complaint is the same one I have always had. Their game runs like poo poo on PS4 sometimes. Screen tearing. Slow loading. Astral Trip really highlights how bad it can get with all the scene loads. Sometimes you get white screen for a second or so. Really ruins the flow and the experience. Wish they could have attempted to fix that at some point in the last year. This would be a "forever" kind of game if it just performed better.

As wacky as the Unicorn stuff is, something about it just feels like it controls terribly to me. Maybe it controls just like a bike but I expect it not to.

I downloaded the pack and purchased the dlc, but it acts like I haven't downloaded it. instead, the ps store tells me I've purchased it - but won't let me download it. Goddamn it. On ps4. ETA: Even went on the online website for PSN and it also lists all Trials fusion as unable to download. Way to go Ubi. Narcissus1916 fucked around with this message at 07:51 on Jul 16, 2015 |

I assume it is the same after a full-on reboot of the console? If so, in addition to raising it with Ubi, I'd suggest raising it on the official red Lynx forums too. I feel like RL has been quite hands-on in terms of helping people with any issues relating to the new DLC.

Got it working! Kept restarting the system and logging in and out and it finally triggered it. Can't wait to try the new stuff. Sorry for jumping the gun, I'm just super paranoid given how many recent launches have been glitchy messes.

I mean it's not the worst or anything. I guess my brain just can't parse how a Horse going fast = a Wheelie/flipover. I like it overall, it just feels like it controls odd to me. Like it's an organic thing not behaving in an organic way. Before I played the Unicorn portion of this DLC I assumed you got more golden acorns by playing THAT part of it. But I don't seem to be. So are all those expensive items REALLY only available via IAP or am I missing where I earn more Acorns? Feenix fucked around with this message at 16:47 on Jul 16, 2015 |

The thing you purchase is just a key; all of the content loads as an update for the game. (That's what happened for me, anyhow. Purchased it, no download link, started the game and it queued up a big update, after that loaded the DLC was there.) ETA: Did anyone ever set up a PS4 team? I couldn't find one but noticed that lljk was taken, although I guess the team tagspce might be cross platform or something... Thranguy fucked around with this message at 18:43 on Jul 17, 2015 |

mmmmm, sweet, sweet lucky saves https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sa9gNUH0qz8 So, did anyone do the tournament for acorns over the weekend? I was rudely denied entry into the top award tier when, most of the way through a great run, Uplay had a hiccup and I got booted out of the tourney. Had to take a break from the game after that

Can you be a member of more than one team? If you can, then I'd totally join a goon team. I just wouldn't want to leave my current team to join a goon team. Edit: I've posted a query over at the Red Lynx forums about whether or not one can be a member of multiple teams. Edit: Looks like you can only be in one team at any given time.

Its mostly just an additional competitive layer; wherever you have leaderboards, there are also team leaderboards. There is also a team-members 'bulletin board' in the game, and some hooks to facilitiate private MP matches I think. Possibly other stuff too, but I can't quite recall.

I finally picked up Awesome Level Max, admittedly for PC, and wanted to just reiterate that the £20 goaty edition with everything in? Totally worth it if you're coming from Evo. At launch (not counting tutorials), Fusion had 53 tracks. Now it has 140, female riders, more bikes (and a unicorn) and ~450 cross platform community track picks on top of all that. Hats off to Redlynx; they turned a weak launch and what looked like a lazy season pass into almost tripling the size of the game.

Dominic White posted:I finally picked up Awesome Level Max, admittedly for PC, and wanted to just reiterate that the £20 goaty edition with everything in? Totally worth it if you're coming from Evo. Yep. I was certainly a skeptic early on, but I feel they vindicated themselves well. While they in no way could have avoided *all* the early poo poo (and nor should they; there were valid criticisms), looking back I feel it was mostly a 'messaging' issue. But having run that gauntlet with Fusion, I imagine they'll be accounting more effectively for that sort of thing in the future. Fusion came out in April 2014, and I *still* play it almost every day. It'll be interesting to see where they go next. *And* how they get there. Fusion is kind of a platform now. The game will handle paid content updates and changes until such time as it's no longer profitable enough. What effect, if any, will that have on the traditional notion of switching focus to the project for the next new-title installment of the franchise?

I played at launch for probably a week and haven't touched the game since, but I'm starting to get the itch to play again. It sounds like if I were to pick one DLC the Unicorn one would be best?

If you did, then you've a ton of great content to catch up with. If you *didn't*, it is worth picking it up, because that stuff basically doubles the size of the game.

Well this is some interesting news... Welcome to the Ninjas... RoguishRonin posted:Have you run the courses in Trials Fusion and need something more challenging? Do you find Extreme tracks a bit, well, not too extreme anymore? If you are looking for more challenge than what you will find in the RedLynx Extreme tracks, then look no further; this is the track drop for you. Will be interesting to see how this takes shape over time. Certainly there has been a push recently to shape a more coherent community of ninja-track builders and riders, think about making ratings for them more consistent, and work more to put the word out, and entice riders to try ninja tracks. Taking this into account, and considering that even Red Lynx's extreme tracks in Fusion have bonus ninja version in them, I wonder if the next Trials game will see Ninja be an official difficulty tier?

The "Best Rated in Trials this week" section in my game is FILLED with extreme tracks, with a smattering of hard and medium. Kinda disappointing for those of us who prefer medium difficulty stuff to have to scroll past all the other stuff to get to what we actually want to play.

No news in particular to share, but gently caress it; after returning to a focus on practising core tracks, I've recently platted Rock of Rages, Light City Run, and Frost Bite. Two of those this very evening no less. Hopefully sharing that will allow the adrenaline to dissipate such that I can actually get some sleep tonight  (And I'm down to 3 faults with Inferno IV. Soooo close. Soooooo close, I can almost taste it )

Three hours in and I've unlocked the Viper and the vanilla extreme set. The real Trials start here.  For anyone on PC, add chokepoint on Uplay for leaderboard padding. Fortunately a lot of people I added during the Evolution thread are showing up, so at least I've got some company

Thread... ARIIIiiiiiiise!  I'll give Red Lynx this; they are intent on Fusion having a *long* tail of support. http://forums.ubi.com/showthread.php/1308713-Update-11-Coming-Soon "The first thing to cover is the new and improved leaderboard system. We’re adding all new country specific leaderboards and we’ve also gone and pulled the Awesome Adventure scores from your global leaderboard ranking. Now you can speed run your face off and not have that pesky Unicorn tripping you up. In addition to countries we are also adding a Hall of Fame Multiplayer leaderboard but I’m getting a little ahead of myself so let’s see what else is changing in MP." "Trials Fusion is a sport, a sport played with thumbs, but a sport none the less so we’re introducing new multiplayer seasons to the online multiplayer. Individual seasons will be tracked on the main multiplayer leaderboard while all seasons will be combined on the Hall of Fame leaderboard. We’ve also added a link to the leaderboards from the online multiplayer menu. Seasons and LB improvements aren’t all we have coming for our competitive players. Other updates include an improvement to the ranking system and matchmaking as well as some fixes for multiplayer track downloads. This last one will allow us to add more custom tracks to the public multiplayer rotation." "We know you all like playing dress up. You ARE an individual and Trials has got you covered. So not only are we adding the DLC helmets for the female rider, we’re also unleashing the all new high value helmets purchasable with (lots of) career mode currency. Last but definitely not least, all the previous pre order bonus items are coming to Fusion for purchase using Acorns." Also, finally got off my arse and finished off the "Full Throttle" challenges

I really thought fusion was gonna be some shovelware crap between adding tricks, the dlc schedule, and the unfinished launch. They've turned it around superbly. Unfortunately they still never released the evo DLC on PC so I'm still tapping my feet, disappointingly looking at my watch.

On PS4 there is slowdown and screen tearing/judder in many campaign tracks. (Custom, too). Nothing about that game's simple (but cool!) assets should cause the PS4 to buck. But it does, and in a game like this, it stands out and annoys me. You'll do a big jump and the camera will swing up a little and screen tear/ slow down...

I got an xbone and this game and you can add me GT "Literal Garbage" if you want to compare times. Done with all but a couple of the extreme tracks from the base game, still loads of DLC to do. Obviously have to go back and plat stuff, just did a first run of each track basically. I really hate the FMX stuff in the game, but fun otherwise.
