KTM event as seen from an average player | Forums

Like when my daughters soccer team wins the championship, but the last place team all get trophies too

I had written something like "Not at all. Don't give the people who don't even try anything but let those who do at least have *something*", but then fell into the edit-post-on-mobile trap and now it's gone.

I'm a casual player and I understand that the current event is designed to stop the complaints about too much grinding. But prizes starting at 20%? That means 80% of the players are not getting anything at all. Couldn't you have put in some consolation prizes at least? Some gems or coins or even chips (or Stallion blueprints if need be)? Why should I try a track more than once if on the first try I end up at - say - 60% on that track and I can see that even with a better run I will never make 20% (except by practising for hours on end, which would be worse than a little grinding).

The game currently puts me in top 6% of the event LB, and while this would mean I get the track after all, I have no idea how I got there.

Oh, and fix the crashes, please.

Hi yjgalla,

I can see your point, however I quite agree with GR-Argy. In facts, it is easy to reach top 20% because many players are not regular players, or don't want to participate on the event. So if you try at least a bit, let's say to the 10 tracks once a day, you basically have reached the 20%.
I'm level 25, I play the event tracks 3 times a day in average, and I'm top 16%. My personal goal is to reach top 15% reward, cause I know I won't go higher.
And I think it is fair to reward players that really tried playing the event, that put some effort into it.
I'll forward your remark anyway

If you put in even 10% of the effort needed to get all the prizes in any of the last 5 events, you will easily get all the rewards (except for #1 of course).

If the Bunker win/loss ratio is to be believed, I am a subpar (at best) player. I played through each track once, and retried 2 of them 3-4 more times. About 10 minutes of playing to get in the top 4%. I don't know your skill level, but I bet 20 minutes of playing could get you a top 5% spot.

Hi,
Did you manage to reach your goal? Or even maybe higher percent?

Hi hikasrams,

not the first week, I was stuck at 16%
But this week, I am already top 14% Woop Woop!
(yeah I know, not such an achievement compared to you guys ^^)

Though I don't have enough space on my phone for the last maintenance, so I can't play for now, I'll have to delete stuff (but don't say anything to RL )

Nice to hear that you're doing better! What bikes and track did you reach on the story by now?
Clean TF cache, once I had ~7,5GB of it!

i'm not a good player, but top 5% is pretty easy. get top 10-15% on each of the 10 tracks, and you will be in the top 5%. then just work on the tracks that you are lowest ranked on until you get to top 5. if you cant better your time, race a couple of ghosts that are ~.5 to 1 second faster to you and learn a better line. everyone in this event is riding the exact same bike, so the fastest times are possible for anyone.

i'd prefer there were more increments for 3% or 1%.

[hikasrams]

Is there a thread with TF riding clues collected in one place?
E.g. don't fly in the air, ride on back wheel, lean here, there, etc.?

ok

How does it look sliding on curved ramps? Maybe I know that, but can't guess what is it from these words (EN isn't my native)
