    That skill game *would* be sweet if it weren't also bugged, with the bike exploding at a certain point (if you take a higher path and land a certain way) and the score freezing, examples of which are in another thread on this board.

    I feel like Redlynx, you should look up that Steve Ballmer video where he constantly yells "DEVELOPERS DEVELOPERS DEVELOPERS". Now replace the word "DEVELOPERS" with "PLAYTESTING", and that should make for a good motto the next few months

    Lets do it!
    Nice try! :P

    I like the dlc pack. Love the look and the amount of fire in the deep. For me all tracks are challenging. Still not a ninja!

    @bigshotrob

    yeah im in , secret codex being complied

    Only up to 2 hours entertainment from just the tracks them selves i would imagine as i get hours and hours from the editor stuff in fact days and weeks maybe. To be honest this game mos tlikely has been the most played game that has captured my attention for so long. Ok cod has done it for years but thats a different kettle of fish. Speaking of kettles , coffee time.

    @all

    Oh i would imagine as far as the tyre glitches are concerned i think that only a very small amount of players actually really notice them , the top squad so to speak who are keen on the leaderboards are most likely the only ones that actually notice these glitches , a massive percent of the gamers dont have the skill and have a different look on it. I would also imagine tyre glitches must be something that is more or less something they cant avoid as it happens on alot of tracks through out the game and doesnt really stick to a certain object. Of course the rocks were not to clever to ride on which i am using some in my new track but added custom collisions. As the dlc is about volcanic rocks it was sure that they was going to use them and to be honest sometimes it does make for a more indepth feel of the track rather than just riding on ice. Come guys lets face it , this is a dirt bike rally game and since when has dirt bikes been as smooth as a baby backside to ride. I say if people want smooth go ice skating. Your riding in a cave , fire and lava spitting all over you and your tyres almost melting , how can you get smooth from that. Im a realistic and the roughness of the ride sometimes helps the actual theme of the track.

    I better stop my self before my fingers get a mind of their own and wonder off into some unknown world where i talk rubbish lol.

    If you want smooth , i suggest a sport where you ride a bikes over an entire world and its object maybe isnt the right sports game for you joking of course , they can be alittle annoying but still everyone is in the same boat so everyone has the same handicap so this will not give anyone a distinctive advantage.

    Ride the rough

    A few good points Ret, I definatly agree with you about beginner/easy tracks, why do they get dropped? I love the easier tracks.
    The extreme is easier that many before but I dont see that as a bad thing, as it is there will be more competition on it and personally, I dont want every extreme I play to be super tough.
    Its good to have a fire skill game, ive only played it a couple of times but would tend to agree about the repetition.
    Really happy to see a new rider helmet, next dlc I hope there will be 10+ as 1 isn't enough.

    On the Xbox One I thought the same... then fired up the 360 and the same tracks are a lot lighter...

    I'm on 360.

    It also has to do with the sudden change of bright to dark on those tracks.

    I just played Tectonic Jolt(left it till last for some reason) and there is one rock in the middle of the track that I would say glitched me 9/10 times, not major but enough not to make the next obstical well. Its like it got tested once and the tester hit the one in ten and just moved onto the next area. Anyone else have this issue?

    Overall I enjoyed it and still enjoying it.

    Good

    Looks awesome, plenty to look at in the decor which is probably not helping bringing down those faults.
    Lots of nice secrets, especially the audio logs which I've found about half so far and they relate to the Fusion story which is nice all pertaining to the 'event' which some of them kind of explain. (Total fail I had the announcer turned off when I was collecting so had to go back and do them again with it turned on)
    Spoiler:  Show
    terminator 2 squirrel was just a bit epic

    The added objects are brilliant. Can't wait to see what the talented builders come up with on this one.
    I actually liked that train level. Still can't 0-fault it though....and the doing the track backwards challenge is so annoying. Fun but annoying with no checkpoints.

    Bad
    Extreme was too easy.
    Difficulty seems jarred slightly from the norm. The mediums seem to be borderline hard in some obstacles. For a non season trials rider I reckon a lot of people will struggle with the mediums in this DLC.
    I've not seen the x-supercross track in the map rotation once in online. Probably due to the take up of the DLC. As the DLC was obviously released as part of the MP update I would suggest unlocking the DLC x-supercross tracks for play. This may well do good to promote the DLC aswell and less segregate the players. Finding a game where everyone has the DLC makes matchmaking a pain.
    Tire glitches.

    Probs the best DLC yet on Fusion.

    @Funk:

    1. Just because the competitive players are the only ones who are really affected by it, does not mean that it should be ignored.

    2. Tire glitches can definitely be avoided. In most in game tracks, it is caused by line design or object usage.

    3. The argument of realism has no place in a game with physics like Trials. It doesn't really support your point either.

    4. It doesn't matter if it happens to everybody, it is a glitch. Inconsistency and unpredictability has no place in a competitive environment.


    Please don't defend this, just because it's something that doesn't bother you personally.

    Aagain i see you seem to like responding to mysefl so i will reply also

    1. Just because the competitive players are the only ones who are really affected by it, does not mean that it should be ignored.

    Never said they should be ignored but games are not developed for the minority , but for the majority

    2. Tire glitches can definitely be avoided. In most in game tracks, it is caused by line design or object usage.

    I dont know too much about this but its not rocket science , if it was that easy to avoid then they simply would , do you think they leave them in for fun or simply to annoy you ?

    3. The argument of realism has no place in a game with physics like Trials. It doesn't really support your point either.

    What a stupid argument , im am and many others are proof to this. I dont play this game because i enjoy physics one little bit , i play this game because it give me the chance to create a game within a game as you do when making tracks. Which infact consists of realism , this makes me feel lik i am a real deisgner , the realism of how a track looks or feels can enhance your experience on that track. I take it by what you are sayng that it is the floting shelves and none decorated tracks which you find your entertainment then.

    4. It doesn't matter if it happens to everybody, it is a glitch. Inconsistency and unpredictability has no place in a competitive environment.

    This does not give the appearance of a credible competitive enviroment yet it is infact by nature a true reflection of skill. Within this game a massive skill involved that allows players to compete against each other is memory like , where to jump when to lean and so forth in which alot know how to but timing is of the hessance. The fact of unpredicability can happen gives the skilled player the opertunity to actually show that this is not just down to memory more down to how their skill can handle the sudden change in the playable pattern. This is shown within real competative sports like , football. They dont abandon a football match because one side of the pitch is more wet then the other. Nor do they stop a race because the floor might be alittle wet. This only brings out the actual real skill level of the competitors. \while its not the same thing in one way it is the same within a competative side.

    I will defend anything i please to defend if you want to raise an issue with my post on here. How dare you tell me not to defend your highlighted points regarding my post. it is my right , my right to speak. who do you think you are , every post you seme to be pointing me out for some reason. I will ask once , leave me alone.

    I am tired of you following me around this site and ripping into every post i make, this is called stalking, i have posted within this thread with no malice yet you seem to be trying again just like other posts cause me harm. Please stop this and find something better to do with your time. Do you not have something better to do then to bother me or follow me round the forum and pickout my posts. Are you that imature that you need to argue with me all the while ?. What is your problem , no i mean really , what is your problem because i find it kind of creepy that your stalking me
