    Online Trials End timer

    The timer at the end isn't long enough. I like watching others trying to finish the race and hope that it gets extended in a patch, or if possible we should given the ability to decide how long the end timer lasts.

    Cheers

    Seconded. You've given us an editor. Let us use it how we want. I personally want it so that when i set the boyouncy on trials guy, we can race across the water after we jump off.

    Please Redlynx.

    Wonder if the finish timer needs to be based on the track length.

    I have NEVER seen 2 riders successfully finish Gigatrack in multiplayer, the second-place person is always more than 15 seconds behind the leader (usually me, I'm about 18 and 2 on Gigatrack in multiplayer). Actually, one time I deliberately waited at the finish line about 30 seconds or so, for the 2nd-place player, so he could get his completion points. He had put up a pretty good race, and did not want to see him DNF at the end.

    15 second timer on Extremes is pretty brutal, too. First time I ever rode Way of the Ninja was in hardcore trials multiplayer, almost got to the end, too, before the end timer went out.

    Eliminating the timer entirely wouldn't work, though. Some riders may not ever successfully complete a level.

    We can adjust the timers. However too long timers can also be problematic, because everyone has to wait for the slowest one, and he might even stop trying... it's not fun to watch someone doing nothing

    So what do you think the proper values should be for each difficulty (each difficulty can have it's own setting)?

    I would say:

    beginner: 15 sec
    easy: 20 sec
    medium 25 sec
    hard: 30 sec
    extreme: 45 sec

    Not bad, crazhalo. How about:

    Beginner: 15 sec
    Easy: 20 sec
    Medium 25 sec
    Hard: 30 sec
    Extreme: 2 min
    Gigatrack: 3 min

    Only increase time limit for hard and extreme tracks. Hard 25 secs, Extreme 1 min.

    I wouldn't like to have to wait 2 minutes for someone to finish the track. How about if they don't pass a checkpoint in 30 seconds, the game ends. Otherwise 2 minutes.

    Nice idea although 1 min I think is just fine for extreme tracks.
