After spending the last couple of days hammering Evo I thought I would make this thread to throw some suggestions into the mix.
Some of this stuff was asked for halfway through HD's lifespan and didn't get into Evo so I'm not holding my breath but it's worth a shot.
Menus and HUD
1) Still can't jump up and down the track lists with the triggers. More tracks = more scrolling. Either that or let us press up on the pad to jump straight to the bottom.
2) Option to completely disable HUD (including the 3,2,1 go writing)
3) Leaderboards. I thought we were getting more seperated leaderboards but I can't see much difference from HD's other than the multiplayer ones. Are skill games still counted towards global ranking?
4) Option to disable tutorial messages in the easy tracks.
Gameplay
1) Fix the front wheel digging in. I can deal with other stuff, but this is my main gripe.
2) Allow a little more time to hit the riders head. Even if you can touch your head for no more than 2 seconds and a little bit of damage increase. I'm not one for "worming" my way to checkpoints, but all the lucky little flips where you just clip your head and roll over are impossible now and it's kinda frustrating.
3) Braking is too strong and reverse is insane. Really difficult to land and stop dead on stuff as he will just gun it into reverse almost instantly.
4) Rider lean is very aggressive. Lean forward and the back wheel pops nearly every time.
Track Central
1) We need an option to tag tracks as BETA with the ability to disable leaderboards for it and the option to delete it.
2) Find friends tracks should have it's own option that pulls all your friends tracks into a list before downloading (not keen on having to search for people on my list).
That's all I can think of right now. I'm sure I'll find more but feel free to add your own comments and let's see if we can get Evo to absolute perfection!
Track Central
3) Select multiple tracks at a time, then download the lot all at once.
Nice addition.
Hey mods. Any chance this thread could get stickied?
I'd like to be able to play my own work in progress/yet to be uploaded tracks from the normal custom track screen - as it is currently the only way to test drive is in editor and in multiplayer - both of which don't show exactly how it will play normally...
Not really a suggestion but more of an observation. Why suck all the contrast out of the graphics?
Sometimes it just looks washed out, almost like the black levels are wrong (eg console set to RGB standard instead of expanded).
If I go into my TV settings and adjust the black level the picture has so much more definition, but obviously I can't leave it like that as when I create tracks, what I see on screen is not what other people will see.
Add aonther one to the list.
Back button during tournaments. I preferred it when it did nothing, now it resets you to the start of the CURRENT track which seems really strange.
Either disable it completely again or do what someone else suggested (can't remember who) and have the back button bring up a warning saying you will go back to the start of the tournament and then press it again to confirm.
ie. 2 taps of the back button will send you back to the first track in the tournament.
Greetings,
Change the pause menu option for "Exit Game" to "Exit Track", "Exit Tournament" or even "Return to Menu". As it does not actually exit the game.
-Game start-up music is (imo) AWFUL. I'd like to be able to turn it off or choose which song plays.
-There are 4 identical arrow signs in the editor for some odd reason. Only need one. And maybe bring back some HD signs.
-Bike selection in editor doesn't save like in HD. I want it to stay on the Pheonix, but every time I start the game it switches back to the Scorpion.
-Gluing a physics object to a static object activates the static object's physics.
-There's no way to toggle a glued object's physics even while holding LB..
-Switch jumping sucks with the fast position movement + soft suspension.
-I like the idea of a slightly more forgiving skull. "Worming" IS cheap and should remain impossible.
All fairly minor things considering it only cost $15![]()
I was in stitches when I saw this happen, I just dont understand the reason behind it.Originally Posted by EuphoricFusion
I'm liking the tournaments this time. I like the fact that it is basing your times of your track PB, but instead your actual tournament time.
Also back button is useful on the first track of any tournament, as the faults don't go up when you hit back, just resets. Saves exiting out and re-entering.
It's not useful on the other tracks, though.
