I get a platinum and do as many flips and wheelies throughout the track as i can but it says im losing on one track to a person that is 5 faults and 1:10 behind me. Guess the time plays less of a factor? Doesnt feel like a Bunker Season but an event not unlike the recent one with the hearts. I forgot the name. Does anyone else think the Bunker should be left for timed competition and not for this? I would have preferred a new event with this twist in it.
(chuckle) Apparently so.but it says im losing on one track to a person that is 5 faults and 1:10 behind me. Guess the time plays less of a factor?Does RL actually play-test this stuff? Its at times like this I gotta wonder.....
The bunker was certainly an interesting place for this, and might be okay, IMO .... but not until the bugs are worked out. The season has weeks to go yet... they have time to fix their bugs if they get to work.Does anyone else think the Bunker should be left for timed competition and not for this?
But right now, you have to rewarp your thoughts into this new way of winning, or skip the season (which I am fine doing; I have never appreciated being somebody elses lab rat).

in a couple of showdowns you'd have the perfect speed/tricks ratio formula and bring light into the frontier yet again!![]()
Sometimes I cross the finish line and “Victory” pops up and I’m surprised because I have no idea how I won.
Sometimes I cross the finish line and “Defeat” pops up and I’m surprised because I have no idea how I lost.
It’s kind of like the slot machine, I’m never sure what I’m going to get!
Thanks for the vote of confidence, but I am afraid its all in the tricks. I did start a new thread to get everyones strategies though, if for no other reason than to illustrate to RL just how broken this is...Originally Posted by xUBILYNXrLIARSx Go to original post![]()
It literally says at the bottom of the new "Xgames Norway Season" banner: "There is a penalty for faults and time. Make sure you complete a Track with less faults and in the best time possible to win a race."
It has to be a bug.
Actually it's even better - few times I lost my races and after getting back to menu I saw the spin wheel, and when I've used it my reward was added to the 'global' match rewards pool.
Its all one big bug to me.Originally Posted by khr1stopher Go to original post
If aghate22's estimate is accurate, 1 fault = approx -10 points. Scoring-wise, that can be covered by ... doing a backflip. A fault is a penalty but not a significant one.

Proposed scoring change:
1. player with fewest faults wins
2. if both players have same number faults, player with best medal wins (no more winning with bronze medal)
3. if both players have same faults & medal, player with most flips wins
4. if both players have same faults, medal & flips, player with best time wins
Eliminate wheelies/slides from equation entirely. Eliminate calculated score entirely. Only show medal needed and number of flips in the corner so players know what they must do to win.
