You can't hear a portal sound anymore on Ruination because redlynx fixed the portals, before the last TU they produced the sound even when invisible, so i guess that the portals are still there, they just don't make that vacuum cleaner sound anymore. There is also the possibility that they just have removed the portals.

I found the Easter egg on Greek therapy, it took me into the clouds and there was the plank, has anyone else found this or am I the first?

How'd you find it, and what makes you think there's more to the track?

[Stego111]

Yeah I don't have any means to upload a video for the Greek Therapy plank, but as far as I can tell all you have to do is wheelie the entire section right before the fountain where it goes down and up. Then you will hear the noise as you jump the gate and the portal appears just on the right side of the gate.

There could be more to it that I just happened to do each time I unlocked it. Like you may have to jump a certain distance off the fountain jump, but you usually jump pretty far anyways.

This one you talk of in greek therapy is the first letters - VN-ZUDE XFQQP

Plus im not sure how i opened the portal, i had been trying the wheelie thing - nothing, then on a fast run trying to better my time, heard the noise, portal opened.

wheeling down the ramp before the 3rd fountain, maybe?

in my replay, i had wheelied down, along the flat bit and up this ramp before fountian 3, front flipped, landed back wheel - then sound effect

It is those white lines, which now makes me think this is probably GT done - a squirrel and this seems pretty sufficient for one track. Wheelie all the way between them and it appears. And yeah its the first of the letters. Do the other signs appear to be in order of the tracks haven't really been paying much attention)? If so you can probably figure out a rough area for which tracks still have stuff to be discovered by looking at that.

A good theory but I would doubt it. The one from Lumberjack has text from around the beginning/middle and the end.

Has anyone got a list of all planks found and how to get too them?

[DannersMac]

Ruination might have been glitched since release? And they then made up for it with Anno Domini?

I hear what you're saying. But am I crazy? Is anyone else NOT hearing the portal sounds anymore? Can they remove that?

If they could remove it, couldn't they fix it? Were the portal sounds ever even there? I'm sure of it because it's the only reason I turned the music in the game all the way down.

(sigh)

On a totally different note (but still on the topic of Ruination) I tried some more things today. At the checkpoint right after the fifth slab, I had this urge to try and get over to the irrigation drain that flows down from there (This is the same one you drive over in the beginning that is blocked with a large squarish log).

So to do this, I had to bail out at the checkpoint and wiggle my guy to the back of the edge there, past the checkpoint. It was pretty easy the first time, haven't been able to do it a second time.

The only reason I mention this, is because there was a totally different camera angle that became active once I fell down that way, unique to this area. I was trying to get inside the slot of the irrigation pipe that runs down, hoping it would wash me into (enter Ruination secret here).

Instead my girlfriend just asked me if this "writhing on the ground" was how I look for secrets in the game.

DAMNIT! To be honest, I thought you had actually nailed it. I had a look at it as well and the camera does actually change to one that follows the rider, and you would think that you could go into the drain and the camera would follow you to wherever it is that its taking you.

But I tried for quite a while to do it, and I was activating the slabs as well (seems like more than a coincidence that the last slab falls right next to where you do this) because I find it hard to believe that they aren't involved in some way, and I wanted to have activated them if I was ever gonna actually land in the drain. But I don't think its actually possible to land in it. It's verrrrry hard to get him to worm his way over there on the first go (because pressing B will almost definitely deactivate whatever it is the slabs trigger) but I just did it then and got him as close as I think is possible to the wall to fall off over to the side towards the drain, and I still missed it. Very disappointing. Anyone else is welcome to try but it really didn't seem possible then.

Would be nice to at least just get some sort of hint about this track now.. I think its been long enough.

Edit:Oh yeand I tried for a little bit to see if there was somewhere else you can bail into it and that didn't really seem possible either.

[IFTHISTHENTHAT]

Yeah... ANBA didn't seem to hesitate or even need much prodding to almost fully describe the Reclaimed secret steps.

Not like him, in that instance.

I'd say a hint is all I want.

Has anyone tried bailing up the tower at the end, seems like that steep incline would make a pretty good launch ramp, and the finish line goes all the way up the tower, I've got pretty high just trying it, but the times I've done it zero faulted and slabs pressed ive not managed to get a lot of hight, I figure whatever the trigger is has to be after the last slab.
