Update on Trials Fusion Online MP | Forums

[xJackieBx_on_PC]

I appreciate all the info, Shifty and I'm glad this much-requested feature is finally coming to Fusion but I'm going to be a negative Nancy here and say that I think it's too late. The vast majority of people who bought the game and had so much passion for it simply moved on. Track Central barely gets any traffic anymore (at least on the Xbox One) and the time that this feature would've had the biggest impact has long since passed.

Maybe this will be a lesson to the corporate heads at Ubisoft to not rush a game to release. If RedLynx had been given the opportunity to fine-tune everything and complete features prior to launch, the game wouldn't be in the state that it is now. Online multiplayer is great, but this game needed it half a year ago.

While I completely agree that I think Multiplayer took longer than it should to be released, I do take some of your post with a little grain of salt.

I highly doubt the "majority" of the players have simply moved on, and even if it is the majority, I don't think a large percent of them moved on with the intent to never come back once multiplayer releases, especially those who are passionate about the game.

All just speculation though, we'll just have to wait and see how it all plays out

Would you say 98% is not a majority? Or did you mean the hardcore players only? This would have 12k people playing Fusion regularly on the ps4...it's possible, but with minimal TC downloads...I think you'd be reaching for that number.
If 30k people play multiplayer, that would show 5% of ps4 players tried the multiplayer. We'll see how much retention there will be shortly. All you need are 8 decent players for a full room though.
I don't see the MP release impacting the number of consistent players very much.
I hope MP is great, but I don't see any innovative game modes or much more than the 4 lane expansion and camera on the first lane, no single lane MP. We'll see how fun it is...that's the ultimate test.

Yeah your right I guess, I didn't realize it was that huge of a percentage. 12k people though. even if it is just a little spec of a number compared to how many people downloaded the game. is still a pretty big number and shouldn't be hard at all to find a full room consistently without it being the same people every single time.

and it most certainly won't ever compare in numbers compared to huge games like WOW or LOL, but I think compared to other games that have some sort of online multiplayer it won't be very far (if at all) behind any of them.

That aside, the release can't come soon enough, especially now that it is practically within grasp now

bringing multiplayer to fusion wont bring back the joy from previous trials.
Fusion multiplayer wil be the same as what u saw in beta.
after hearing that, i was again disapointed.
9 months waiting and we get.........

Why are there only 4 lanes on 360? What happened to all the others?

Shifty postet about that anywhere.

What are you talking about? I've never seen any post saying anything remotely close to being that

It was one of those rare events, a piece of information getting out into the wild here. Shifty or En0 posted that 360 would only have 4 lanes a while back.

I ended up finding the post (or at least one that says it)

so this basically means that people who own only the 360 version have no benefit from moving from Evo MP to Fusion MP.
