What happened with Trials Rising? | Forums

pretty sure you had to unlock all the tracks in fusion dude

Nobody is complaining about unlocking tracks. Not sure where you invented that argument. People are complaining about the horrific and tedious xp grind. A lot of us have been playing trials for a decade (not including the flash games before HD) there’s a tried and tested formula that has worked fine before and now they’ve changed it so my skill doesn’t matter when it comes to unlocking tracks. Now they want my time instead, which I would be spending anyway setting times and beating my friends. But instead I’m doing backflips and stuff i hate so I can unlock the next track. It’s not skill based it’s time based.

Also I notice you keep comparing fusion when you argue with me. Fusion wasn’t good. I don’t care what fusion did. It’s the worst game in the series in my opinion.

I get that you like the stupid convoluted Ubisoft busy work map and xp grind, but a lot of us don’t and all we want is a more streamlined way to play the game we’ve been playing for years. Nobody is saying remove all the things you like, just to make it so we don’t have to endure it, so I’m not sure why you’re arguing about it on every post little buddy.

No reason to call anyone "little buddy" or try to shut him down simply because he has different opinion than you man. We all love Trials here and all want the game to succeed. Lionden1 is not saying everything is great or doesn't need improvement. He is just saying the grinding (although problematic) isn't exactly as bad to him as you make it sounds to be, nuance. Which I would agree with as well.

As long as you focus on the contracts that gives a lot of XP like Redbull or the mystery man (+5000, +7000 etc..), as well as FatShady and skill games easy contracts (lot of XP too), and ignore the rest, you should be all set to unlock all tracks and bikes pretty fast without having to artificially play all tracks over and over again. I even unlocked the extreme tracks by beating the last hard stadium before completing any of the 6 hard tracks tied to it, my XP level was good enough already. And I never touched any of the boring +1000 or +2000xp contracts.

I still hope they heavily streamline and rebalance Career mode. We also need a Classic Trials mode where it's just the list of tracks, personal best time, leaderboard rank, and friends ghosts. Career mode has many issues right now, but it mostly suffers from not having any counterpart. Like a FIFA game where you could only do career mode and not simply launch a match between the two teams you want. It needs an alternative on top of being rebalanced!
