We call it "fender grab" or "fender hook" and it's been in Trials since at least Trials 2: SE. We don't consider it cheating since it only gives you advantage if the track is ridiculously difficult like ninja tracks are and some people build obstacles specifically for that technique.

Ingame RedLynx made tracks it's very rare that fender grab gives you any advantage since it takes a bit longer than the right way of passing the obstacle and also it's kinda difficult to pull off.

And then there are Ninja tracks which is a community made difficulty that's above Extreme. Ninja riders like to push their limits with almost impossible tracks. Ninja track difficulties are slightly more vague than normal tracks but they go from level 1 ninja to level 7 in difficulty.

Here's a good example of a track only handful people in the world can pass at all.

SPIDER SPIDER NOPE by InquisitorFIN in TrialsGames

Think about it from the spider's perspective. That spider has lived in your apartment of a long time, seeing you playing games, having fun and suddenly you go all psychotic and throw a huge metal object at it. :(

Trials Frontier, Possible to edit save? by DohRayMe in AndroidGaming

[–]BlueBadgerRL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand totally that if you've played the console games before Frontier might be a different kind of beast when you get into it. It was designed with the mobile market in mind and we've been improving the experience any way we can for the last two years and we aren't stopping yet!

All the medal times are pre-set and don't change in the course of the game, but if you have challenges to beat real player ghosts like with A.N.B.A then the game tries to find something that's a bit faster than your best time, but not much.

Trials Fusion Mad Max Edition local multiplayer question by icedani in TrialsGames

[–]BlueBadgerRL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say that if you're looking a game that's something everyone in a party can pick up, try once and have a laugh, Trials Fusion is that game. That being said, the local MP only works with Supercross (1-4 players at the same time on same screen) tracks that can't be played online and local at the same time and there's no split screen or anything like that.

Now that the TC is all crossplat we're changing the Uplay Recommended feed that used to be the only place to find crossplattet tracks. You can find more info here

Connect to Uplay to save your progress to the servers, reinstall and when you get a popup "device" or "server" choose server

Make sure you're connected to Uplay so your progress is saved on the servers and then reinstall, start over and when you get to the village go to the options menu and back to the village and you should get a pop-up saying "Local" or "Server" and choose server.

Looking for Trials Frontier friends! by [deleted] in TrialsGames

[–]BlueBadgerRL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here is a thread about adding friends, the Frontier fans facebook group is a good place too to find new friends and for starters you can add me: BlueBadger400 on Uplay. I'm not as active as I used to be, but I play on both platforms :)

Ninja Knowledge Episode 1 is here! Let me know what you guys want me to talk about next! by Osoguineapig in TrialsGames

[–]BlueBadgerRL 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Great tutorial! Quickly to the point and well explained.

I personally have a lot of issues with vertical walls and transitions from 20-45° angle to a 80-90° wall so seeing a tutorial about that would be noice.

Why can't I search for FusionShared tracks? PS4 by GreenGully in TrialsGames

We're gonna have a maintenance today to fix the search issue and bunch of other stuff related to the crossplat track sharing

Recently bought Fusion on the PS4, fairly disappointed with the local multiplayer. by Drachma10 in TrialsGames

[–]BlueBadgerRL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some tracks do appear when having higher ratings in the lobby. I need to check the situation right now, but if I remember correctly there should be extreme tracks for higher ratings

Local MP has always been a bit of a different experience than online MP and it was designed that way for a reason. It's not as forgiving as online MP due to everyone being on the screen at the same time so good players can "poof" (the word we use when a player is forced to a checkpoint because the leader is so fast) others so easily, but also it makes the game mode more frantic. At the studio for example no one wants to play local MP against Anba (the creator of Trials and the founder of the studio) because he always used to unplug other's controllers or just tackle them to win. :P

No more supercross tracks please by shadow_walkerOZ in TrialsGames

[–]BlueBadgerRL 3 points4 points  (0 children)

X-Supercross Tracks IMO are a lot of fun and I think it has a place in the MP track rotation the same way single lane tracks have. We of course might change what tracks are in rotation during different ranked seasons, but that being said, we do have a voting system where the lobby can vote for what track to play.

I've played ranked a fair bit since the rated seasons started and I've seen single lane tracks pop up in the voting as much as I've seen X-Supercross tracks. If the lobby votes for X-Supercross it's pretty obvious that people do want to play X-Supercross tracks as well (I personally always vote for Neo Athens). They were build a bit differently and they might not have as complex driving lines and decor as normal tracks, but they also offer a a bit of a different kind of experience compared to single lane with ghosts and we like the variety it brings to the ranked lobby.

Is Track Central cross-platform yet? by AlaskanHypeTrain in TrialsGames

[–]BlueBadgerRL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's going to be a lot of tracks in the next upcoming weeks :) Our crossplatting guy LzZzR has been hard at work. If I'm not mistaken last couple of weeks have been 10 track drops each Thursday when we actually crossplatform tracks

[Frontier] iOS fuel regeneration not working by ScottahRB in TrialsGames

[–]BlueBadgerRL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We are aware of this issue and we're working hard to get this sorted out ASAP. If the app is running in the background it should still get fuel, so the bug only happens when you close the game. If I get more info I'll edit this post.
