    New medals

    Hi everyone,

    Currently 7th on th android list and the last months I lost a bit of my interest in the game so I was wondering how to keep it interesting.
    I remembered the beginning of the game where you could achieve gold as the highest medal. After some time you could achieve platinum and I thought this was great! But now I have everything platinum and when there are new levels I often achieve platinum after the first try and on some tracks with 5 - 10 second spare.

    I thought it would be great if there would come a new medal like "diamond" or "ruby" (you get the point) and could be obtained by for example:
    - Faster track times to achieve diamond
    - Diamond medal when you are in the top 50 or top 100 (so when you are 100 and someone passes you, you lose the diamond medal because you are 101 then)
    This way there are certain goals and you don't have to click on every track to see your position.
    - Or maybe ruby medal for top 100 and diamond medal for top 50

    There are plenty of possible things to keep it interesting for the players.. what do you guys think?

    I would prefer a time to reach instead of a rank, but I do think something else like this would be a nice addition.

    It doesnt need to affect the global scoring, IMO (in case that comes up); just having another harder goal would be nice. AND, a way to see it for all bike LBs (donkey, crazybike, etc)

    Ruby, diamond.... Sound good. Heck, i got a laugh that a perfect score in World of Goo stamps the track with: OCD. That also sounds very apppropriate.

    I had a idea sometime ago which i think is a very perfect one
    A new medal (im not creative so no idea for a name nor look) which can be obtained if you have plat on all tiers!|Normal-donkey-crazy|
    this would make A LOT of new things to do (i have no motivation to play donkey\crazy because i dont really care about the rank of it) and with this, upgrading those bikes would be meaningful!!!
    PLEASE READ IT I THINK ITS A QUITE GOOD IDEA

    good idea but I have the feeling that Redlynx not interested in our ideas so much. We have stayed here a lot of game presented ideas but by your side are also not really comment. I also lose more and more interest in the game. New Tracks are super and nice but I miss such missions as at the beginning of the match against Butch and his gang ...

    This is a good idea PL-k4kshi !
    As I said, there are a lot of options but I never thought about yours and it's definitely one to remember!
    Thanks! Hopefully redlynx takes a look at these topics!

    They should take a look at our ideas cause the game is all about the consumers. If they aren't happy, they're not selling.. A bit harsh to say cause we are only those 0,01% who complain but they should keep it interesting for everyone. And personally I guess the top players are the ones spending the money so they should listen!

    yes xitooner, it's very annoying when you have to click on every track to see the donkey and crazy bike rating... every medal has two wings, if you have silver with donkey and gold with crazy bike, the left wings should be silver and the right wing gold. The body of the medal should remain the colour you achieved with the tier bike. Just an idea to keep it simple I guess.

    To make the game more interesting how about anba giving new tracks rather than gems.
    Showdown interaction with your opponents.
    If we can delete all our track times keeping bike upgrades,tracks,outfits intact and starting fresh.

    I agree completely with everything said here.
    I would love an additional "medal" type (could be diamond), and many of the suggestions here in this thread are really good!

    IŽd also like some kind of outfit that you would get when you got into the top 10%, top 1% and top 0.1%
    I do think that would be really nice.

    But the thing I agree with most here, is what GER-kruppi talks about: more missions! New bikes are nice, but what made the game awesome to begin with, was the storyline and missions.
    I think most players (who have completed the game) would prefer more story to challenge-packs/new crazy bikes/agent style missions.

    I wonder what's the percentage of players that finished the storyline and found all the datacubes etc. So maybe it isn't interesting for redlynx to create a new storyline if that percentage isn't high.
    But as I already said, I guess the top 10% players are the ones spending money on the game so actually they should.
    The idea of the outfits you said is great! Would be awesome if they can add this to the game!
