    Beta patch schedule?

    I know finding the root of a lot of these bugs can be a big job, but with 18 days until launch, there is obviously a lot of work to be done.

    How fast do you hope to get the patches out for these issues?

    I see fixing (and patching) the youtube issue seems to be on the backburner till near launch at earliest, but what about all these slowdown issues, it would be nice to be able to play the beta at a reasonable speed. Though, as long as the release build is fixed I will still be happy!

    I just think it should be a priority to test bug fixes ASAP via patching the beta but perhaps there are things that will make doing so unfeasible (at least in a timely manner).

    ps. I love the effort you (the whole RedLynx team) have put into making this port, finally the 360 era Trials will have a chance to truly flourish through the editor and your community. You guys are awesome.

    Obviously the track scoring is messed up. Xrotto's score is definitely wrong.

    To be honest, I wouldn't expect a beta patch - most players have the game running and there are no gamebreaking bungs per se, although the FPS hiccups really do make some maps borderline unplayable.

    I would wager a guess that the big patch would roll out along with the release date, probably followed by driver updates from your GPU maker (hopefully).

    Seems like there will probably be a leaderboard reset for this game, because some peoples score isn't right. No disrespect to T4kShadow but his score is not right.

    The only thing that bothers me is the delay of the online features. Only wish they would take care of that, until the final game arrives. Downloading custom tracks, sorting in TC's advanced search, uploading scores. All these take quite some time and i usually losing my patience and go to play some online which works ok without delays.

    Removing leaderboard entries from obvious hackers is not a reason to reset the stats. Leaderboards would be pointless if they couldn't find such entries and remove them, as it is always an issue beta or not. The replay data is there so if there is evidence they'll simply be removed. Gameplay differences between beta and final builds is the real issue, as far as I know.

    They're not hacked scores, they're miscalculated. This is at no fault of the player, but instead an issue with uploading to the server.

    They've recalculated all the scores on the xbox version, they should be able to do it again.

    I hope there will be a "day-one patch" that will make use of our feedback. I find a lot of broken replays, the saving after a track takes a lot of time and in one custom track, the leaderboard was fubar: the first score was -9288 faults... WTF???
