    Time Limited Tournaments

    Interesting new feature i must say.
    i wonder what RedLynx is going to do with this going forward...
    From the looks of it, we get a new tournament every time the timer runs out.
    What are your thoughts on this new feature?

    Edit: one thing i dont like is that tournaments dont count for the Global Leaderboards like they did before in previous Trials games.
    Not that time-limited tourneys should count for points Robviously, but im just saying..
    Tournaments take alotta consistency, would be nice to be rewarded for it.

    I think this is certainly a fun idea. It keeps the competition a little more interesting and lively than just having a permanent leaderboard where the same few people are always at the top. It gives more people more chances to compete, and the prizes give people an incentive to improve their runs even if they aren't competitive enough to reach the top of the leaderboards.

    Two things I'm thinking, though, are that I'd still like to see good old fashioned tournaments with permanent leaderboards as an option just because watching Xrotto beast TYM in evo was so cool, and secondly I wonder if there will be more prizes than just experience points, or if new uses for experience points will be added so that there is a little more to compete for than just seeing your level go up.

    I thought that the whole idea of trials is repeat play so you can get better over time?
    I feel that this type of tournament wont work for me, sometimes I might go a few days without turning on my xbox, does that mean I will miss out on tournaments?
    Also I feel like the top of the lb will be the same top riders as everyone else doesn't have time to try and improve. Dont get me wrong, the top riders are expected to be seen at the top of the lb's. Does that make sense? Lol

    They are more of a fun thing, you don't need to come top to get the top rewards, just in the top 10%
