Did people find shit about hidden ARGs yet? I always loved to follow these things on previous Trials games :D
Take the game offline and do that challenge against CPU players.Hmm someone might want to do something about the matchmaking because well I wanted to get a gold medal in all the tracks and in the European league, I had only got Silver in the first track of the stadium challenges, so I was like okay I'll just go redo it. So it's me, two CPUs and then five other Trials users which they spliced into this challenge.
These players are so far ahead of me during the race, I look at the leaderboards and I'm facing the upper tier of players in this track. One guys is currently ranked 2nd. I can't beat them, so I can't get my Gold to register because I need to finish 4th and I only finish 5th or worse because these players are so far ahead of me.
Just a nitpick by me, still enjoying the game but yeah, idk how I'm getting that gold if that's my competition and they're always ahead of me and I cannot catch up to them.

yeah, the Sponsor race in the Siberian stadium is ridiculous, you just have to make one mistake and you are fucked, back to the beginning of the three races...shit is infuriating
Oh God I finally beat the El Tomate challenge with the backflips and frontflips with zero faults.
THAT TOOK AWHILE.
University sounds good. Maybe I'll be able to do better than just hard tracks this time. Especially things like jumping onto steep inclines, or having multiple long hops up obstacles. I'm able to do those by seemingly randomly waggling my left stick but I can't nail down the specifics. Makes for amusing entertainment for onlookers as I faceplant repeatedly though :)
Haha, yes i still haven't done it yet, I use the first area with the rooftop and the ramp underneath it to grind out the backflips, do one and drop back down, rinse repeat, but then I can't do the front flips
Yeah, same. They've done plenty of good things with this sequel (the university, improved track creator, getting rid of FMX tricks), but it's held back slightly by silly decisions like this. By all means have player ghosts in the game, but make them optional. In the beta I just found them distracting, I just wanted to play the track with my own bike and see what the best time I could get was. I don't care about how other players are riding on the track unless I'm specifically trying to beat one of their times. The ghosts just got in the way.helped me a lot! It brought back the default chumps and I got the gold trophy. I don't like it when I have to beat other players to progress, I'd rather just beat the goals set by the devs and compete against my friends' time.
Not sure, in the 360 ones the online sub was only used for online multiplayer. I suspect it's like that but that's just a guess.I am assuming Nintendo Online is needed for the Switch version for almost everything, or can it be played "offline?"
I want to double dip and get the retail version from Amazon for the Switch, but I do not have Nintendo Online. It will basically become a $60 game for me if I need NO.
Currently Level 20 something on the X version and feel like I need to have this on my Switch in handheld mode even with some concessions.
Oh by the way if you check out the store they show what's available in the lootbox at the moment, it's only a limited pool of items and it's possible to buy other things with the regular coins. I think they're going to end up rotating what's in the boxes.the lootboxes in this game are ridiculous, duplicate over duplicate, why don´t they shower the player in cool outfits and customization stuff?
that is really a good example of "how not to do lootboxes"
The Donkey is incredibly hard to ride, but because of that it's a lot of fun. Helium unlocks a bunch of easy contracts but it's not a very interesting bike.

You can use the second catapult launcher if you're grinding. Put your front tire on, flip up, and repeat.
For front flips you can get 2 off the first drop and 2 off the next ramp. Just knock those out first.
what platform are you on? i was worried but after a few hours yesterday playing on xbone i didnt encounter any real performance issues that bothered me and didnt have any hitches during runs.The technical side of this game is somewhat disappointing - there is constant texture pop-in, the game hitches from time to time for a small moment (unacceptable for a game asking for total precision at parts) and the loading times are surprisingly long.
It's a shame, since the gameplay is really good.
There were only 50.000 entries on the leaderboard of the first beginner track yesterday, ~28 hours after release. This seems quite low even before you consider that this leaderboard is a multiplatform one.
Some are AI. I think the Ubisoft icon indicates they play on a different service, so you're seeing their Uplay account name.Another question - are all the other riders actual people? or are some AI? Some have a little Ubisoft icon next to their name, are they employees or testers or something like that?
Once you're fast enough to unlock a platinum medal you can see them for all tracks.

Ubisoft Logo means they're cross platform. There is some AI riders as well.Another question - are all the other riders actual people? or are some AI? Some have a little Ubisoft icon next to their name, are they employees or testers or something like that?
I've just unlocked the Mantis. I've been making sure I get gold on each track as I play, and A+ on the university courses. Nothing feels grindy so far. One thing is really bugging me though – on the first track of the first easy stadium I only got a silver, but I was in the top 4. Now when I replay the track I have to race 7 insanely hard ghosts instead of the chumps I faced the first time. I can't place better than 6th, and despite blitzing the gold time I don't get gold because I'm not in the top 4. I don't know how these ghosts are chosen but I get the same ones every time. I thought once I unlocked the Mantis I'd be able to come back and win, but I still can't beat 6th.
They're going to add it.

C'mon, you only need to shave off two seconds!
is there a simple way to just show gold/silver time ghosts/dots?
I'm opening loot boxes just to find a different win animation. I equipped the ass slapping kazoo sound abomination and since it's the only one I have I can't unequip it!
Yes they do as far as I know. Low number I guess because this is a pretty late game hard track and not many people got to it yet.
Unfortunately not - that's just for gear. Just 'Select' which does nothing as it's already selected.If you select that animation again there should be an option to unequipped it
Oh dear, in that case you have my commiserations.Unfortunately not - that's just for gear. Just 'Select' which does nothing as it's already selected.
