    Dev Update: Ninja Track Feeds

    Our latest DLC, Fault One Zero, released last week, and we had a pretty substantial update that came out just before that. You might think that it’s time for all of the people at RedLynx to slow down, but you would be wrong.

    We’re increasing efforts to provide updates on what is going on at the studio over the course of Trials Fusion’s evolution, and today I’ve been given the all clear to talk about something that will change how some of you use Track Central. This has been a fairly highly requested change, and one that has been teased about a thousand times now.

    I am happy to announce that there will be Ninja Track Feeds in Track Central. Ninja Riders want their own space, non-Ninja Riders want those insanely difficult tracks the heck out of the extreme feeds. We’ve come up with a workable solution and one that has us excited. In addition to the Trials, X-Supercross, Supercross, Skill Game and FMX feeds, Ninja tracks will have their own set of feeds on track central. Newest, Highest Rated 48/Week/All Time… It’s all going to be there. You literally have a one-stop shop for all of your Ninja tracks.



    Is there a catch? You bet there is. For tracks to be put into the Ninja feeds, they need to be tagged with the “ninja difficulty” tag when uploading to Track Central. These Ninja-tagged tracks will appear in the Ninja feeds. They will not appear in the Extreme feeds any longer, so if you are an Extreme rider looking for a slightly more reasonable challenge you’ll be happy with this change.

    We’ve been bringing new and updated features to Trials Fusion for a while now, and we aren’t done yet. Keep your eyes open on the forums, Twitter, Facebook and the constantly-updated Trials Fusion Portal.

    Until the next update, riders!

    Thank you for this. Hopefully it becomes a raging success for everyone, and carries over into future trials games.

    I would assume that part of the feature's success rests with the players. Tracks not tagged as Ninja Track will not be placed into the Ninja feeds. If the Ninja Community doesn't properly use the feature, then it's a lose-lose for just about everyone.

    The Ninjas have wanted something like this for a while now, and when it goes live it will mostly be in their hands. I have faith that they'll take advantage of their new playground.

    Also remember to remove Ninja tagged tracks from the lower difficulties, as some track creators don't always use Extreme.

    And a little interesting thing, 440 medals = 10 new tracks on the last DLC?

    Very nice, almost made me suspect last weeks ninja-free TC was sort of a test phase as it strictly removed ninja tagged tracks from most feeds.

    Now it's a Win-Win for both camps if they keep tagging their tracks properly!

    That's how it will work.

    Does this mean it's now possible for ninjas to get uplay picked?

    Yay! Thank you, I've been wishing for this for a long time. Hopefully there will be fewer ninja's in the "hard" feed now.
