Tournament Feature Pack + Update Notes | Forums

Could a dev explain why we cannot have local management of tracks downloaded to our consoles, like on Evo? This question has never been answered, and with servers issues entering their fourth week since Watch_Dogs release, it would at least allow us to play something independent of Ubisoft servers. Thanks.

Hello Morillo,

We'll probably bring the local management back at some point, no date though.
For the server issues, I can't communicate, I am not close enough of this problem. I'll try to get information.

Cheers,

The pyrosequence is a hint on what will come next. Pyrosequence is nothing itself, it's just something that says: "Next new thing will appear here later!"
So until yesterday, Pyrosequence was in the "Ride" section. Then, we unveiled Tournaments that is in the "Ride" section.
Since today, Pyrosequence is in the "Garage" section. This means we'll unveiled something (not soon) at this place.

The community is free to interpret and try to find information about what it could be. We read the posts.

YES! New bikes beginning with the letter D???
We do appreciate the communication En0-. Thanks for your continued activity on the forums.

Hello,

Yes, we'll add some online multiplayer, with a private mode. We can't give any date. We're working on it, but we want to release it only when that will have the right level of quality.

Cheers,

Thanks for the confirmation. The game just isn't the same for me if I can't enjoy it with friends. Looking forward to it!

When tracks are not saved locally, it gives a chance to not worry about removing tracks when you hit a limit (something that everyone seemed to hate), but it DOES mean that tracks don't stay on your device for indefinite amounts of time. We have discussed local track management, but there haven't been any final decisions made.

We ARE going to remove the 52 track per feed limit, and there are other things that have been asked for that are being worked on right now, but we don't have dates to give.

What Redlynx should say: We will start doing this on the 18/06/2014 and will have it done by the 20/06/2014 and have it implemented by the 22/06/2014.

It's easy to sit back and say "This is what they should do", but it's far more difficult to actually make those decisions. Which is more detrimental to your community, saying "We'll have info soon" or saying "We'll have this done by this day" and then miss that release?

Honestly some of the people who work for Redlynx get paid to do nothing I swear.

This is just a rude statement. Honestly, when was the last time you spent the day with someone from RedLynx that you would feel comfortable in saying this?

There does seem to be a disconnect between how redlynx see the priorities and how the community as a whole see them.

We all have frustrations but that's a bit harsh dude..

I don't want this to offend anyone, and I hope it is read correctly, but the forum community is a very small section of the Trials fanbase, and what you guys want isn't in sync with what most Trials players want.

Most of the forum members want Track Central improvements & MP, and we are working on that, but most of the players who interact with us from outside of the forums don't care about Track Central, as they can already download and play tracks. Those people want MP & DLC, specifically DLC tracks. Our devs pushed over 45 fixes in the latest patch. Maybe that doesn't seem like anything to anyone else, but that is over 45 things that are mostly based on fan feedback.

Because the service currently relies on the Ubi servers working (which if we are all honest don't exactly have a good record of 100% up time.) It would be very beneficial for the game and community as a whole to allow the downloading and offline play of tracks. Just remove the limit on how many we can download and let us run wild and play the tracks even if the servers are down. That I hope is being discussed at RL towers.

I just played a tournament and got a time that put me in the top 10, very happy till it wouldn't connect to the servers. Im not doing it again lol. This is why I see time limits on tournaments not working.
You can fix everything in the game but it all comes down to connecting with the servers which in their current state im sorry to say is awful.

Yup we're obviously the guys that are out of touch... this silent majority you're talking about wont even be playing the game in a years time, yet you consider them to be the real community.
