Uplay Recommended #68
Howdy, riders. It's Thursday and you know what that means, new Uplay Recommended tracks! 5 tracks this week going cross platform to the Xbox One, PS4 & PC but let's not waste your time telling you stuff you already know. Lets talk about these tracks.

Crane Yard (fix) by ElColoLoco
Mode: Trials
Difficulty: Medium
Original Platform: Playstation 4
The Frontier love continues this week with this remake from ElColoLoco. Crane Yard is a very enjoyable track in Frontier and Mr. Loco has done an excellent job of recreating it here. Obviously there will be some differences, the two games aren't exactly the same when it comes to bikes and physics but every obstacle here feels almost exactly as it should and the scenery and decoration are spot on as well. Respect to ElColoLoco for a very faithful remake.


Rabid Rabbit by Rishaanvb
Mode: Trials
Difficulty: Medium
Original Platform: Playstation 4
This does not seem like a place you want to take your BMX bike for a spin. Rabid Rabbit has you traversing a run down nuclear power plant and with the absence of engine sounds the constant clicking of a Geiger counter is a reminder of unseen dangers. For you perfectionists out there Rishaan has given you a Docking Bay difficult platinum medal time that I'm still a few fractions of a second behind. You'll need to nail every jump, landing and time saver to achieve a top run here.


Tired Night Way by VEGASTRASH01
Mode: Trials
Difficulty: Hard
Original Platform: Playstation 4
There are two things I think the Trash man really likes; technical driving lines and tires. Both are on display here in another pure trials treat. There are a lot of opportunities here to crash and burn but if you can find it, there is a fairly fast flowing line to the finish. I had a lot of fun running this one for that perfect run and I hope you will too. Lucky for us not everything that happens in Vegas needs to stay there.


Toxic Derp by AM0RPHOUS
Mode: Trials
Difficulty: Extreme
Original Platform: Xbox One
In our rock hard ride of the week AM0RPHOUS takes us to another toxic trials track but don't let my hyperbole scare you, this is actually a very approachable extreme track with very forgiving medal times. Most skilled trials riders should have no problem finding a no fault run and I'd definitely recommend this to any players just starting to tackle extreme tracks. Not only is this a very enjoyable challenge but it's also a great looking track with excellent decoration and details.


~Retro-Gravity~ by x KaiLiMAN x
Mode: Trials with a twist
Difficulty: Hard
Original Platform: Xbox One
Our last track this week is something a little different. In the middle of a fantastically excecuted fantasy theme there sits some mysterious machinery that really messes with gravity. You might rack up some faults as you adjust to the funky physics but this is still a fun little ride nestled within a great theme. The sound work is really nice as well. I always like to see people playing with the basic gameplay and coming up with something fun outside of our regular Trials experience.

That's it for this week, riders. Take them for a spin yourself right now on Xbox One, PS4 & PC. And as always, be sure to let us know what tracks you are enjoying in our Uplay Recommended nomintaions thread on the forums. Until next week (or Friday's Halloween Special Trials Live), I'll see you on the leaderboards

Another excellent drop!
Shout out to VEGASTRASH01! I always struggle with your tracks, but feel like I've improved when I pass one. The obstacle placement is awkward in an awesome way to really make you rethink how you attack tracks and how timing and tempo are so important. Well done!
