    Is this still a thing? Or have we forgotten about it.

    Devs ignored my post, i doubt they will bother to respond to this one either. Anything RL says related to LB's may as well be ignored after the state they left Evo and HD in...

    Hi!,

    Could someone explain me what "coffin runs" are? (I cannot help it...I'm blond)

    coffin runs are using the coffin FMX trick to hump the bike extra distance on jumps gaining advantage on certain jumps.....not 100% sure how, I suck with all FMX related stuff, and I'm not exactly great at the game anyway...but people who were not top riders were able to get top times by humping over something that would normally slow you down, clearing bigger gaps etc...then a few top riders did it too

    I think the coffin is the only move that could give extra speed distance on jumps, every other trick slows you down, coffin does weird things...I personally hate all FMX things so I don't touch right stick unless playing FMX track, then, getting gold will do

    the fix was supposed to be any run falling into the top 20 places using the coffin trick would be removed, guess its not happened yet.....been a while since I played fusion, and I'm nowhere near threatening the top 20, even though PC has very few players

    With the Coffin, you throw your legs under the handlebars. When this happens, the bike is pushed forwards slightly and gives you that little 'bump'. Coffin is so easy to do that I hit it accidentally while trying to do other tricks, which is why it's being targeted. I know one of the grabs though will flip the bike forwards, enabling a faster spin or recovery without leaning the bike.

    Oh I forgot about this one. It seems it would take a while to do and the reality is, only a few care about their rank in a video game. I always liked the competitiveness in Trials, but with the game broke across 4 platforms,unless you have a unified ranking system built into the game....rank is almost irrelevant...especially on the ps4...noob central. I'm @50th without even trying...probably 400th between the 4 platforms.
    I remember when Shifty said he was going through all the wrench nominations very late in the Evo cycle. I knew at the time nothing would be done and I was right again. I could personally care less about an icon in a video game, especially when great builders never got one. The point being...that wrench thread, among many others had pages and pages of ideas/nominations, etc...these guys listen, but do very little. It's just one excuse after the next....painful.

    I prefer up front people. I would simply say, "No. We're not doing this. It's just not worth our time to appease a few people. We are in the business of selling games, not getting every fix a few people on a forum have a gripe about."

    See, this would be a great statement. True and to the point. This dancing around in circles like a drunk ballerina has to stop...but it's amusing though, so thanks. Excuse after excuse. There are always a million reasons to not get something done.

    @princessfran [...] + this "coffin glitch move" was fixed in a previous update, so now it's impossible/very hard/harder to beat the riders who used this "bug".

    I am losing hope at this point. The issue has been around for too long. Oh well.

    Yh come on guys this should be sorted by now i know the latest patch messed up most replays but im sure you could apply the previous patch in office and sort this out. Unless(sorry to suggest foul play) u broke the replays so u wouldn't have to remove them
