I second all those in favor here.
To me it's a way to easily recognize people that belong to the same Team as me.
People that I might not have had the opportunity to talk to yet, then I automatically know they most likely know some of my other friends, thus I know I can approach them like a fellow team member.
And in case of my team I instinctively know that the person is 30 years old or older, as that's a requirement to join my team.
I also know that they are nice people as all of the other team members are nice people![]()
It's also very nice to be able to search for all tracks on TC for all of my teams mates tracks, providing they have used that in the name of the track.
To me being personally, being accepted into OTHG has made the game and in fact my life much better b/c I've met some really nice people through the team.
People that have lots of more experienced than me in the game and the editor, therefore I can learn from them.
So I really want the teams to stay in the game.
Just my two cents
Teams were a big thing for me in fusion, would not have been a part of the OTHG otherwise by now, and the members became my trials friends and drove me to improve within the team ranks.
Rising has an opportunity to take it a step firther to make teams even more of a thing, like the suggestion in my feedback about multiplayer team battles which can have an effect on leaderboards.
You can also have individual leaderboards and team leaderboards per track to trigger off clan wars, and leaderboards on track central for teams' builders like amount of tracks made, or average track ratings etc
Posibilities are endless and all this can add to the longevity of the game as well - I am confused as to why redlynx would want to starve the game of the chance to be more playable.
Thank you all for the great feedback.... we need the teams to stay in Rising along with team challenges and team vs. Team events. PLEASE KEEP THE TEAMS IN RISING ! I also think the teams would be better if they had 25 - 30 members.... I always thought 50 was way to big and I believe we never had more than 10 full 50 member teams.... so bringing it down to 25 would make it easier to form teams. THANK YOU ! OTHG RULES ! 6+ YEARS AND STILL GOING STRONG 😎
