    Scoreboard Issues

    Dear community, dear RedLynx Team

    A little more than three months ago I recognized that my overall Global score is glitched (my +DLC doesnt seem to be affected however). Im missing 433000 points which is quite a lot when youre already on a decent rank.

    Yes, I know theres another thread out there "report sp scoring issues here". I even know its title by heart. Why? Because I was there so often. I asked every few weeks what was going on and if youre still taking care of the problem.
    And I got no answers at all from RL - never. You guys dont seem to care... Otherwise you would at least keep us updated about this issue! But youre not. To me it seems like youre just trying to sweep it under the carpet and make people forget about it and the last thing you want is admitting your helplessness. Especially when it comes to the leaderboards...

    The physics, the community features and the leaderboards are the beating heart of this game and you guys just cant admit your failure in such an essential part. At least this is my theory. I would love to be proven wrong by RL however!

    This is why I opened a new thread. I just want an answer from you guys. I want to know wether my score will be fixed eventually or if I should better forget about it. And I dont want to hear "be patient, we're working on it" because thats what I heard more than a 100 days ago already!

    Thank you very much

    I agree with you, we want some informations. But I don't think that the issue will be fixed, RedLynx is working on Trials Fusion (and Frontier) now. Hope I'm wrong.

    Look... If they cant fix it then OK. I would even understand it. Maybe its way too difficult and time-consuming. But what theyre doing now is way worse - they just dont comment on it at all, probably because they know they will disappoint many loyal fans immediately.

    What theyre doing now is just coward. Thats what it is.

    And I would indeed not be surprised if this thread was locked instead of giving me an answer to this.

    Exactly... They do not seem to like to much criticism on this forum or ANY kind of even semi-negative comments.

    Re: Scoreboard Issues

    i agree with the opening post.

    i would also like to get some information, maybe tell us why it cant be fixed.

    i think its safe to assume that there are many many more glitched global scores out there that we dont even know about.

    i myself know 2 people that are not on this forum but play this game ALOT.
    They both lost over 100 000 global points and my friend BEEFY P NIZZLE even calculated his score with
    the global spreadsheet and he lost some insane amount of points as well...

    If a thread is polite and constructive and not simply trolling (such as "RL sucks") then there is no reason for it to be locked unless it is a duplicate. All feedback is useful wether it is positive or negative. Part of the moderator's mandate is to ensure that both types of feedback are welcomed.

    If your score has been checked and recalculated, then there isnt much more that can be done because as I understand it, the scores cant be entered manually. I'm unsure as to exactly how the global scoring works with regards to the calculation and wether it is affected by the number of people ahead of you? If this can affect it then maybe the recently removed glitched scores could have been having an effect on your score?

    However, I'm simply a mod and dont have an intricate understanding of the systems Rl use. So I'm just trying to provide an answer based on very likited knowledge and may not be correct.

    I was trying to be as polite and diplomatic as possible even though I have to say Im really quite annoyed...

    No, my score hasnt been recalculated.
    Actually I posted in the "report scoring issues" thread a few hours too late when they were still trying to recalculate scores. One day after my recalculation request CannibalShogun posted the following:
    "That recalculation didn't have the expected effects so I held off on recalculating anymore until we get to the bottom of the issue. Recalculating at this point seems to only add to the problem. I will continue to look into this issue and will update as soon as I have more info."

    Since this day I have not gotten a single answer to my regularly posted questions everywhere in the Forum. I even wrote a private message to muteus which remained unanswered aswell.

    And I was polite all the time.

    As I said: I dont even need the fix. Well I would love it but if it is not possible then I am willing to accept that. I just want to hear it from a guy from RL. As a marketing expert I learned that silence towards customers is the worst solution to any problem because it basically means "guilty".
