We're not happy (no PC version)
Well I'm gonna come straight out and say it; the hardcore fans of this game are not happy.
And we know what we're talking about. We're the ones who have played the game the most out of everybody. Together we have a couple of thousand hours invested into Trials2. We constantly break records, we come to the chat channel all the time, we post in the forum. We are the small, but enthusiastic backbone of the trials community. We simply love this game.
Yesterday when Trials HD was announced, the response in the chat channel was pretty overwhelming. Almost all of us, if not all, feel this has nothing to do with us. Hardly any of us even own an Xbox. So for Redlynx to dangle a carrot in front of our eyes knowing damn well what we expected to hear, and then remove it and give us news that doesn't affect any of us, is pretty ****ty. Not many of us want to buy a new machine just for 1 game, and even then with all the added costs (xbox live, gold membership etc), you can only play it on a controller?? Wow, it's so lame I don't know where to begin. Trials is supposed to be played on a keyboard, end of story!
This new game seems to have everything we wanted.. it's just missing the most vital piece; it's not for PC. I know Redlynx only care about cold numbers, but next time you do something like this, I would hope to see less insensitivity. Don't get our hopes up and get us all excited when you know, or should know, that the news isnt gonna affect most of us.
It seems Inferno II will be for HD.. this is not what was promised and is a lame copout and I think you guys know this. The track was gonna be released for Trials2 SE, plain and simple.
I love this game, it's pretty much the only one I play.. but I don't see myself buying an Xbox just for 1 game. Redlynx, you've lost the backbone of the community with this move. You probably don't care, but I just thought I'd voice what feels like the general concencus from the hardcore fans..
