Tbh alot of the core hardcore absolutely shit on Redlynx from a monumetal height to the poin off entitlement so I wouldn't be surprised if they didnt bother again.

One of my runs was upped to Youtube by a random dude as well, shit is good

Gigatrack is out today, which is worth a play for the novelty at least. My lunch break will be spent trying to get the platinum, rather than my daily ninja attempt (currently trying to pass the 'easy' version of Scorn which is baseline level 3, and much better than Green Belt).

I still think this is the best Trials game ever. Maybe the ninja stuff isn't as fun as it was on Fusion, but now that the game doesn't stutter at all (on PC at least) the racing is amazing.

Thought I'd try Rising on my new PC... still getting frame drops despite having a GPU and CPU that are at like 20%?!?  I thought the game was meant to be fixed now??  Not talking total freezes, but it's far from the 60FPS (or higher!) that I was kinda expecting!!

Ok, I'll try that. Might have to go 1080 not 1440 too

It's a fun track, but the coasting sections are absolute bullshit. I've had a couple of runs where I've been 10 seconds up on my PB and my bike has randomly flipped and immediately faulted. The coast sections are around 6 or 7 minutes in, and there's a few dice role shortcuts earlier in the runs, so it really hurts.

So, I thought I'd give Fusion another crack because it's still Trials, and why not. It's definitely not because I have 600+ hours in Rising and I was ashamed of it.

I can see why I didn't really enjoy it as much when I tried it back on the PS4 (aside from not getting on with the controller). The physics are floaty, the bike suspension is utterly stupid and speed running doesn't feel anywhere near as tight as Evo. The step up to Rising was huge in that respect.

But all that aside, it's really fun. The DLC's just get better and better, and by the last one (or at least the one before awesome levels max, which I'll be getting at some point if I can find it cheap) the futuristic setting has clicked for me to the extent I prefer it. Some of the music is really great. One of the last tracks is the worst thing that's happened to trials since HD (the 8 bit arcade one), but otherwise they're all fantastic. 

Finally, I can see why people prefer the ninja's here to the ninja's in Rising. The stupid suspension and the floaty gravity make the bike feel much more capable of insane feats. The price of admission is higher but the skill ceiling also feels higher.

I want to have a fair crack at the ninja's, and then perhaps I'll be back to Rising (or try some other games....).

I'm up for that. Difficult to police, but if we all pinky swear.....

A decent track to start with has been released recently too:

I reckon I would die on that many times. I've not even unlocked the second bike on my pc either, which likely won't help matters. But yknow I'll try anything twice.

I'd say wait for a few more people to chip in and say they'll join in the fun. Ideally we'd have 5 or so (though I'd be happy to give it a whirl to get things moving).

If DS/Dubs don't join then I'll have to handicap myself a bit - not sure what would be fair.

Im pretty much done with Trials so wont be jumping in lads

Heh forgot to order the game.

You'll need to unlock the Mantis, which will take a little grinding. They fixed the grind a bit, so you can speed it up by getting A+'s in the university of trials.

I'm not sure I have A+ skillz lol
