Has anyone gotten a platinum medal on any track with the stallion? If so which track? just wondering

[TheeElf]

Lots of tracks actually. Since the Stallion and Agent Bike are classified in the "Crazy Bike" tier, I have actually outperformed and taken the #1 spot on the some tracks for the Crazy Bikes leaderboards. Some of those #1 spot tracks include The Refinery, Tree Houses, Drifter Valley, Planks and Mozzies,Barrel Chase, Forgotten Factory, Cave Crossing, and Processing Center. Keep in mind these are all platted taking the #1 LB spot. There are plenty of other tracks that I have gotten platinum one but there are some others that I have only managed gold on if not just trying to complete it (Traction Testground, Quagmire, Melancholy Temple).

If you have any other specific questions or certain levels you are wondering about let me know. I've got a maxed Stallion unlocked already and gotten VERY familiar with a lot of the mechanics.

EDIT: Add The Big Swing to that #1 Crazy Bike leaderboard list! XD (Leading #2 by 2.3 seconds)

I would not be surprised if Justinwon735 was talking about the 0/0/0/0 Stallion, You may be the only person on the planet with all the Blueprints... Just an observation... You my friend are killin it!

Yes mate, I've managed to get Platinum on a few tracks with the basic Stallion (no upgrades as I haven't unlocked it yet) but I'm sorry I can't remember which tracks they were off the top of my head but I'll have a look and see if I can find which ones I've done and post back for you if you like !?

It's gotta be said.....They weren't easy to do/get though but it can be done !!

Parched cliff,flooded higway,container ground,cave crossing,drifter valley are all plated with 0 upgrade bike

old city wall, sunset dungeon. both of which were completely difficult. the others i dont remember.
we can all agree that tracks like icebound hamlet,snowball ride etc are almost impossible to gold, forget about plat. it needs a perfect run.

I partially welcome that challenge.
Icebound Hamlet:


Snowball Ride is definitely a pain and requires a little more finesse but I can easily manage gold on it. With Icebound Hamlet down, that now makes 13 platinum tracks I own the #1 on the Crazy Bike leaderboard. I also own Melancholy Temple, Quagmire, and Traction Testground but those are all bronze/silver. There's a few tracks like Trojan Giraffe and Smuggler Tunnel that become impossible to even try because the length of the Stallion put's your backwheel on something and don't allow you a smooth start.

Doom Drop is probably the easiest plat I got with the Stallion; its the only one I really remember because it was so frequent for me. Of course, I was getting Gold 90% of the time, including those two tracks you mentioned (which definitely did take some finesse).

are all plated with 0 upgrade bike

I believe RL said at one time the Agent Bike we were were running in that event as the default was really a 6/6/6/6 AgentBike; it just looked un-upgraded. I suspect this is true for the Stallion as well; I dont think they are so mean as to make us run un-upgraded....



Seems to me that in the end we'll find that the Stallion is good for a number of tracks, but I would be surprised if it turns out if the best for the majority. Just like the Bronco/Marauder have about 15-20 tracks they excel at above the other alternatives, I suspect Stallion will be about the same. There are some tracks where the Stallion is the clear winner, no doubt....but if there was a decent Agile alternative in the CrazyBike category, it would take the majority of all CrazyBike LBs I bet (like they do on the normal boards). Which may be why we dont have one... and why the Donkey is separate.

THIS! From playing, it doesn't really appear that there is a difference between what I was using before I unlocked and what I am using now. Of course, it really is difficult to do the comparison at this point but I would have to agree that the default usage can't be all zeros.

Yeah but during the Agent event, when posting times to the LB and checking them, it said the bike used was 6/6/6/6 (or so, hard to tell with the graphic). During this event, it shows the Stallion to be 0/0/0/0.
