    Recommended by RedLynx

    Damn, i see quite a few great tracks that qualify for being at the same high standards like the official ones. It's a shame that Recommended by RedLynx tab stays there empty. I was hoping since now there is a topic at the news where "the doc" posts selected maps that got his attention that we will see some more love on this matter. Maybe have a place where we can suggest tracks that got our eye for being of such great quality so they can check and add them under this tab. I will probably browse through my upvoted ones and pick a few to post them here, just for the shake of it. Favorites still doesn't work and show only 50 of them, thankfully upvoted does the job fine until favorites get fixed.

    And while we're at it, i understand how we cannot get xp or coins for completing custom tracks, this could be greatly abused. But we could be rewarded for tracks that exist under the recommended tab. Something like that was happening in Fusion i think.

    Hypothetically speaking, what type of reward would you suggest for completing a custom track?

    Just the same amount of xp/coins we get for completing or replaying the official tracks. And maybe a gem or two every once in a while, like after completing 5/10/25/50 tracks etc. Something like that, so people know they won't have to put their fame/coins earning on hold while playing all these awesome custom tracks.

    And why not, a crash test dummy outfit after playing like a hundred of them. :P

    I was wondering where the redlynx picks were myself. Didn't all the previous trials games have this feature at launch? I think a temporary thread to nominate (until redlynx starts at official) is a good idea.

    No reason we couldn't get some rewards from TC runs. Base it on whatever the best time is, as far as time committed (or just require a minimum time for a fixed completion reward), and make sure the faster runs actually do some inputs, so the player does have something to do. Easy enough.

    The base game completion rewards are terrible anyway, so it's not like grinding TC tracks is going to be some cash exploit. The fact that you can't offer even that little for running TC tracks is just one more insult for TC builders/players.

    Much like how "Recommended by RedLynx" continues to offer nothing at all, we still can't tell what difficulty anything is supposed to be, we can't search our downloaded tracks or even see a reliable list of them, menu state doesn't work, we can't see our own votes (let alone change them), many basic normally trivial things are just inconvenient/annoying, and on and on. "Insulting" really is the only word for TC as yet.

    What's not insulting is the way builders pour their time into making your game better despite all that.

    Here are some noteworthy finds I've come across:

    • Reclaimed
    • Shakedown
    • 604 Safe Zone
    • Neo New York
    • 404 Pirate Bay
    • Bale Out II
    • [QDB] Atuwax
    • Shoruni
    • Depot
    • Pine Alcove
    • K8: Back to the roots
    • The Precipice (Extreme)
    • Solstice (Extreme)
    • Penrose (Extreme)
    • DEADPH1SH - Dim Memory
    • Rising Sun
    • Farmaphous
    • Spirit boat procession++
    • KN Warehouse 84
    • NORTH WEST BY NORTH WEST
    • Sandblast from the past
    • GUS Coconut Paradise
    • Rising City Trials
    • HD Remix Underground
    • Synonymous
    • Warehouse Rising
    • Cold Steel
    • [Jelly]Main Break
    • TX Cold Peak

    Dim memory was my first track...I recommend trying my others as well...

    Synonymous is definitely one of my favorites so far.

    Will update this post with my current "favorites" list when I get home.

    Looking forward to your list Deadph1sh. Everyone should keep those finds coming, especially since even the incredibly low effort "Diggin with the Doc" thread seems to have been just too much trouble for RL.

    RL picks NEED TO GO UP ASAP. AMORPHOUS is trying 2 save YOUR game all by himself and your just leaving him out there all by himself in the freezing cold TC.
