I love it.
I like it.
I feel neutral about it.
I dislike it.
I hate it.
Designed to fail..It's not exactly the bike selection i'm getting..But the tracks...Quagmire. Steeple run...These tracks combined with the bikes i'm getting aren't designed for doing tricks on them at all..At least not in any significant and chaining together kinda way. 4 showdowns..3 of them have the quagmire...nobody but me so far has run it..And it's not even fun.
Also what tom said..i'm matching and over producing on the tricks compared to my opponent and i'm losing...even though i beat him by 3 seconds..how is that possible...I get the score is what it's all about..but it's really about the bonuses at the end. And u get no bonus for kicking *** on the trick part??
i'm winning two out of the 3 by a large margin but somehow my tricks don't get counted if i do a backflup...wheelie out of it after the landing but don't touch my front tire down hit a checkpoint while wheeling still...and crash..now all that i did up to that checkpoint is gone. U can't really chain tricks together unless it's adding it up as u go..not as both wheels touch then count it...idk if i'm explaining it wrong but..it has to add the points up as u do them...as chaining them together hitting a checkpoint and wrecking before the next..none of those tricks counted when in reality I been doing them this entire time and landing on my back wheel. Just not touching down on the front to get the points to register i'm still trying to chain it all together and keep the points going. If you haven't noticed..this season is very frustrating and needs alot of work to be done again...I hate it.
This says it all....
Steeple Run-Jackal i'm currently winning..and all these stats are green.
Time- -32.106
Faults- -2 (0 overall for me)
Fan whatever- +6.72
So i'm only winning by roughly 6-7 points?!?!
Time needs to be more accountable than what it is accounted for...and faults as well..0 faults..compared to two and i crushed his time..my run was way cleaner just by the sound of it....it took him over 30 seconds to nearly match what i did in my clean *** run.
If this was real life and i had to say what run i would want to watch just by looking at those stats...i'd say the guy who didn't eat **** twice.and was 32 seconds shorter. Because whatever "tricks" the other guy was doing probably wasn't as fluid as the other guy who didn't eat it twice.
So judging by the stats here i'd say the other guy was trying to gain the system and damn near succeeded. So fix the system. Faults need to drastically impact your score if u ask me.
Also probably not the most accurate scale of measurement here...But not a single person love it according to the pole and i was all about it beforehand..
This vote should be pretty overwhelming and RL will ignore it anyways. For shame.
An intriguing idea ..... implemented in the worst way possible. It doesn’t seem possible to me to be this far off the mark unless is was written by somebody who doesn’t actually play the game, and certainly didn’t play the game with the code they added. Simply mind-blowing, and very depressing that the game has reached this low point.
I played 4 showdowns today and only one rider challenged me. Wasted another 100 tickets just to lose because I STILL don't know what the **** I'm suppose to do to win.
The recent updates to scoring have made the season slightly better and I can deal with a bunker season that isn't perfect......
BUT
When I grind a 5 hour timer, win 3 showdowns, have 2 count and then the 3rd win resets my rank and stars to where it was at the start of the 1st showdown, essentially making 0 progress? Nope. I don't see how you have any option other than to credit every single player with every single reward for this season. My last 6 showdowns have all been wins and my rank progress has been ZERO. Hiding 2 new tracks behind impossible progression and beyond-painful gameplay is so incredibly frustrating.
Honestly, this season has to be stopped until devs find a way to implement it with no bugs. Countless good ideas have been expressed on this forum to mitigate the problems triggered by the new counting system. They should be taken into account by RL. Now.
How to get some steps lower then the awful Love Express event? This new bunker event for shure! Just wasting golden tickets to get stolen on ranking...
