The Trials HD Official Thread

Brakara said:
Eurogamer has some details:
Inside are 23 new courses to hop around on and they focus on the medium and hard tiers - the "sweet spot", the developer told us. They are split into 12 medium, 9 hard and 2 extreme.

In addition, there's 12 skill games. I wish there was less of those and more tracks instead, but for $5 it's still a great value.

I really like this mix, sounds like a good sweet spot.
 
Hopefully they sell a ton of dlc to show other developers how to do things right. Nobody is going to feel shorted that bought the full game, and nobody can deny that this is a great value for your buck.
 
Would you pay 10 dollars to be able to share user levels?

I'm sure MS didn't want to have to mod the content which is why there is only friends sharing. If you were paying them money, maybe they wouldn't mind.
 
There's also details about the patch on the official forums:

Trials HD patch (title update) will be released along the new Trials HD BIG PACK downloadable content pack. The patch is completely free for all players, and your Xbox will automatically download it when you start your game.

Key points:
+ Ultimate Endurance tournament has been made easier. The close to impossible Marathon achievement is now possible for much wider audience. New tournament has only beginner, easy and medium tracks.
+ Improved Down the Stairs skill game. The physics glitch all top players used is fixed and now the user has better control over the tumbling down rider.
+ Fixed the corrupted leaderboard scores found in some tracks (zero times, impossible scores). All leaderboards have been cleaned off corrupted scores and we have a system in place to keep them clean in the future as well.
+ Fixed a number of minor bugs reported by players and found by our testers. Now the game is even more polished and stable than before.
+ Due to huge demand, the amount of tracks users can save in their hard disks and memory cards is doubled.

Detailed fix list:
+ Fixed: Rare crash at game main loading screen
+ Fixed: Rare crash on track selector
+ Fixed: Synchronization issue on track selector preview image (wrong image shown occasionally)
+ Fixed: Rare bike disappearing bug (when game started very very quickly)
+ Fixed: Triggered physics objects disappearing in user created levels after checkpoint restart
+ Fixed: Crash bug in track sharing menu selection toggle (select/deselect spam)
+ Fixed: Offline profiles didn't see any downloaded user created tracks
+ Fixed: Crash when adding too many composite objects in editor
+ Fixed: Corrupted leaderboard data shown when opening leaderboards from track selector and returning
+ Fixed: Camera objects didn't refresh properly in the editor
+ Fixed: Light blockiness bug for spot lights
+ Fixed: Offline warning didn't work when logging in on all controllers
+ Fixed: Some minor text clipping bugs on Japanese/German
+ Leaderboards: Fixed all bugs that caused zero second racing track results and impossible high scores in skill games
+ Leaderboards: Leaderboards have been cleared of all corrupted results (described above). We now also have a system in place that allows us to remove all corrupted/cheated scores immediately.
+ Leaderboards: Fixed down the stairs physics exploit. All new scores will be placed above the old scores.
+ Improvement: Doubled the amount of user created tracks supported by the game (total now 600)
+ Improvement: Ultimate Endurance tournament now contains 20 beginner/easy/medium tracks. No hard tracks at all. Makes Marathon achievement much more accessible to majority of players.
+ Improvement: The rider no longer goes unconscious after first hit in Down the Stairs game mode. Now you have much more control over your total score.
+ Improvement: Lots of improvements for DLC support. The game now can load more and bigger packs.

I just hope they release this on PSN someday. I'd rebuy it just to be able to have community levels. Imagine LBP with friends-only sharing. Incredibly stupid.

That's speculative port talk and bannable, I'd edit that m8 :).

Why do you think it being on PSN would be any different? It's not like Forza 3 has friends-only sharing. The main reason it works as it does, is purely down to finances.

I think the short throw of the PS3 triggers would ruin this game.

Wow, so I might be able to get Ultimate Endurance, after all. :D :D :D

Nah, if you update your game, you'll never be able to get that achievement. They dumbed it down, it's not the same achievement anymore.

Yeah. You can get the achievement, but you won't have achieved it. You'll still be crying yourself to sleep at night.

Like all us mortals

New DLC video. The bit at 36 seconds terrifies me.
Click to expand...
Just over a week left! I fully expect this DLC to dominate my Xmas holidays.

I'm a bit bummed that the Ultimate Endurance Tournament has been changed so much. I'm still going to have to play my absolute best to pass it but it seems so unfair to the gods that earned it before the patch. They should get a special gamer picture.

Edit: Yeah, that bit at 36 seconds (the three barrels) looks like a giggle.

The issue is that PSN Users start coming into XBLA Threads and begin with their horrid, nightmare-inducing port begging which in turn derails the thread.

They're getting a free t-shirt (design not finalized though).

I haven't played Trials in several months due to being away at college, but I'll certainly get back into it once this DLC drops. That's a great price for all that content.
 
Achievement details:

The new Achievements total 50 gamerpoints. The biggest split (20G) goes to "Look Ma I Can Fly!" and is awarded on the Skyway level for bouncing on five trampolines in a row.

The remainder is split between Piggyback (15G) and No Deal (15G). Piggyback requires riding on the top of a car on the Dangerous Ride level, and No Deal involves landing a bailed-out rider in a box.

Sounds like fun.
 
My first completion of King of the Hill was 490 or so faults, 29m50s.

My most recent was with no faults at all, in 1m13s. Frikkin' amaze. I'm two seconds off a platinum. I can't believe how much it's been possible to improve, and how it's constantly felt like I've been improving for the entire time I've been playing. Games like this need clocks and replay counts so I can see how many attempts zero faulting KooH was.

I've not made a single fault on any level up to the end of hard, which was my aim before the DLC hit. Including Technique, too, which I never thought I'd zero fault! It's done wonders for my global ranking, 3800 or so.

My extreme scores are still awful though.

I know the feeling! Though for some reason I had little problem with "technique" some of the other levels have been destroying me though. Kept making stupid mistakes in "concrete dreams"
I've been trying to zero fault the whole game before the DLC, fission mailed though, I won't be home over the next couple of days and I can't get Inferno II (is that the last extreme track?) for the life of me. All of easy, medium, hard and 3/4 of extreme zero faulted though :) I can easily get the platinum time on groundhog forever, (need 1:05, I can clear it in 1:00) but I am so inconsistent at the end of that level that I haven't got that time without a fault yet :(
 
Expansion looks great, I really hope they just keep adding content since the core gameplay is pretty much perfect already. I wish they could release free dlc with some of the best usermade tracks.

That is fucking quality and I will buy a beer for any man I come across wearing one of these. Fair play to Redlynx.

Edit: 1 Bit Trip looks awesome. More special levels like that please!

That is a brilliant idea. To bad it will never happen. :/ Trials HD would be the GOTF if the online sharing wasn't gimped by MS. :(
 
best $5 ever?

I think so, really surprised by the content on this, they could have waited another 6 months and released this as Trials 2...I just gained a lot more respect for RedLynx
 
I got a glimpse of the new tracks yesterday. I don't know how much I can say, but I loved 1 Bit Trip. The Extreme tracks are either less extreme than I expected, or I've come a long way regarding bike control. I didn't 0 fault them, nowhere close, but aside from a couple truly sadistic surprises, all the levels were manageable.

Can't wait to get home after Christmas and kill the tracks!

Do you guys think there will probably be a 1200 to 800 points discount for Trials HD on Big Pack relase deay ? I hope so
Click to expand...
Well, the pack does come out during the period of those Xmas deals so I wouldn't be too surprised if they did. But the game is well worth 1200 points anyway, so it'd be alright if it stayed that way.
 
last night I beat the platinum time on Inferno II but with 2 faults :(
I wanted to zero fault it before the DLC but I wont have a chance now, noooo!!!!

Zero faulting Inferno II is my greatest gaming accomplishment ever. Still have two more levels to get 0 faults on....

When the Big Pack releases, anyone who wants to add me to pad their leaderboards, feel free!

gamertag: TRUTony

Does it release tonight at 2am pacific or am I just wasting my time by staying up tonight?

I can't wait for this pack!!!
 
The Big pack is OUT - looking at the content, 400 points seems like the bargain of the decade.
I am currently #7 (of 16) in the world on Diabolic - this version's Inferno II.
It seems to me to be an easier level...certainly tighter checkpoints.

Add me for leaderboard purposes.

You inhuman monster. I'm 188 tries and 15:59 on that level! I'm sure I could improve that but not to 2 faults and a platinum time!
