    question for REDLYNX, a hd remake feed?

    Theres so much conversation going on about feeds and how to make things work better etc within the TC choices.
    To redlynx,would it not be a good idea to make this feed catagory in the choices.because their from hd,people will love these tracks.there are so many that have been completed now,it wouldnt be a waste of time..so REDLYNX,how about it.
    check out snoops thread for track list to see the amount already done..

    i don't see how that is important enough to have its own feed

    the only usefull feed i can think of that could be worth it to add is a friends recommended feed

    I agree totally with wot you say about friends..i was just offering yet another plausable thread as something really needs doing..72hour highest rated,or anything..search track by name is another..list could go on.

    Or they could just have it as a tag? Isn't that the point of tags anyway?

    Re: question for REDLYNX, a hd remake feed?

    I think a Trials HD remake tag might be the way to go. I've mentioned this before but if we could organise our downloaded tracks into groups and name these groups how we want then you could just create a group called Trials HD remakes and put all the tracks in there so you have them all in one place to play once you've downloaded them. I would like to see this feature implemented so I could create my own groups for micro-donkey tracks, favourite tracks, ninja tracks etc.

    This would be especially useful when adding downloaded tracks in multiplayer as currently no way to tell if the Extreme tracks you've added are ninjas or not unless you can remember from the name. If you had all your ninja tracks etc in one folder then that wouldn't be a problem. Same with other categories or for quickly finding all your favourite user-created tracks.

    It should be a tag, but I am also in favor of adding it to TC as a category. As a user I do not like having to search the way I do.

    I think the TC system has a few fundamental flaws. It suffers from the same problem apps stores have. Popular tracks are massively played and bumped up in TC because of their ratings. This is a good thing, but also gets in the way of new tracks reaching those stats. Especially in the top rated categories. I would suggest randomizing the results or at least providing the feature as a category. When I say randomize I mean picking 50 random results from the top 1000 rated tracks. The results could still be ordered by rating.

    This way all we loose is being able to predict the search results. Something that won't be neccessary if a "recommend this track to a friend" - button is added as well.

    My 2 cents

    Not being funny, but we just lost half the RL picks for the summer of arcade and now you're suggesting another feed be replaced with one dedicated to tracks copied from a game I could load up and play anytime I want?

    Sorry, but its a massive no vote from me.

    Re: question for REDLYNX, a hd remake feed?

    Ive changed my mind since this morning..i thought it would have been when i thought about it,but i also thought the tracks would be nearly identical,but tbh, some of the remakes are diabolical..thats me saying from a players or riders side..so,ive had a re-thinkn, and also with this new feed, has made me realise its not a good idea after all..

    The worst thing to come from all of this is the knowledge that RL cant (for whatever reason) seem to add more feeds to the TC homepage. This to me is a massive blow. I was hoping to see a revamp of TC in the future with more feeds added to the homepage to help with certain issues. But it looks like this wont ever be an option.

    I'd really like to see an update/patch to correct this personally. Having the option of more feeds would provide so much more freedom for RL and would make for a much better TC experience if it was done correctly. As things stand, they are a bit limited with what they can do.
