Yeah also pretty sure in some areas in Tricky when you went off the beaten path, a completely different song would get mixed in and get louder. Really cool.
Hey I've got what I would describe as a serious issue. Namely I often cant see custom global events my friend makes, and he can't see ones I make. This happens about a quarter of the time. Is anyone having this problem too?
Whoa, that's crazy!
Are you using the Rivals page of RiderNet to try and find their stuff? Or is it not showing up there and not on the globe menu either?

It's not showing up on the globe. I havent tried through the rivals menu, I'll try that next time.
But, 3/4 of the time it DOES show up on the globe.
I've never really seen that because I find the Rivals page a much quicker way to get into events where friends are playing, but I'll definitely keep my eye open for it.
I agree that RiderNet 2.0 should have some sorting/filtering features. Iteration will only make it better.

Himalayas, same mountain as Serenity.
Oh wow, I didn't realize that. I figured it was top 10% based on that little thing they show with the people and medals.

Did terrible on my first try on Rolling Thunder Megabuxxxx. 6.6 Milli. But I did try retrying it this morning and it didn't ask for another 2 milli, so I'll keep trying.
I'll...keep trying.
I'll...keep trying.
I want to think it's a race, but it's probably trick. :c
Keep trying, platinum is definitely doable. I haven't pushed into Diamond yet, but I've been placing decently high platinum for the last two Rolling Thunder events. Easy money.

What's the controls for signature move again? L2 + R2? I couldn't remember when I was playing last night, and kept rewinding myself by mistake. (Oddly, signature move isn't in the digital manual?)
Also, the World Tour is ordered funny. Patagonia being the second peak scared the shit out of me, but Siberia and Himalayas are far less painful to newbs.

Yes. Start a trick and then hold L2+R2.
Still no comment on a handling patch for ps3? I played the shit out of all three ps2 SSX games, and handling has never been this painful before. When I'm in a narrow pass, or trying to avoid pits, the handling needs to be much more precise than it is now. As someone put it a few pages back, it's as if the characters have no weight to them.

Oh I have to start another trick first, not just hold them when I'm airborne? I think that's what I'm doing wrong.
I'm not sure how exactly the controls are filtered, but I do know that if you hold LT/L2+RT/R2->any trick button (the -> indicating that you should press and hold the trick AFTER you hold LT/L2+RT/R2) will always get you a sig Uber.
If you're pressing a trick button first, I'm pretty sure the control filtering makes it think like you just want to tweak (RT/R2) and then are holding the LT/L2 button for no reason. I believe the order is important.
I always start the trick first and then do L2+R2, and it registers as the signature move.
Can't wait to play as Travis Rice. I'm going to import my Art of Flight soundtrack, go to Alaska and Patagonia, and then BALLSHRED SO HARD.
For people who have no idea who Travis Rice is, watch this right now. You will not be disappointed.

Alright so maybe I'm just blind but is there any way to skip to the next song while playing? I found the menu to turn certain songs off but still can't seem to figure out how to change the song when I'm going down the mountains. Most other ea games feature this so I figure I'm just missing it somehow.
Neat! c:
In that case the window is fairly generous then. I found that method to be unreliable, personally.
@slasher: not currently, no. It's a frequently requested feature though, definitely.

I never buy suits unless they are legendary, glowing and with a perk, if I'm eventually going to find one, why buy anything less? Same with Legendary boards, and Equipment.

Just spent 10,000,000 Credits on suits just to see if there was a finite amount of them...
..12 pages of suits later, nope.
SSX art director Ron Bignell gifted Merq some super-duper high reso shots.

How do I know who the unique members of team ssx are? Or just the members? I'm trying to get the world tour badges right now and I have no idea who they are
What badge are you trying to get? Hawk xSx provided a really great badge guide that's linked in the second post of the OP.
I'm trying to get the ones where you have to beat griff down the different mountains. It would be easier if I didn't have to guess who is a unique member and who isn't. I though Mac was but after beating griff in africa with him I guess he ins't?
All you have to do is beat him with 6 different (read: unique) characters to get gold on each of the specified mountains. Hope this helps.
This would do it:
Beat Griff in Mountain X with
1. Zoe.
2. Ty
3. Tane
4. Elise
5. Kaori
6. Psymon
Exchange any rider for another, and rearrange the order as much as you like, but beating Griff with the same person twice does not count towards getting the gold medal.

I want to do the online stuff, add me on Xbox Live: Stienzz
Yea I figured it out thanks. You can't use the character you unlocked on the mountain. It shouldn't be too hard to platinum this game. Just gotta keep playing
Also I don't have any ssx friends add me PSN
uchx100 Some Mass Effect boards showed up with 158 hours to buy. Seems like there's 2 different ones and you can buy 2 for every character. I only managed to get 2 for Elise though. I leveled up Alexis cause I wanted a level 10 N7 board but they disappeared once I leveled. And Kaori's glitched or something cause the board is completely blank. I bought it anyway hoping another would show up but nope. Then the rest of them disappeared from the store so no more N7 boards for me

Isn't Trickypedia just the lower part of Serenity? I like them both, but they're not actually two different tracks.

Bad ass, I just got a lvl 10 N7 board with some serious boost to it.

About that platinum...
Game didn't sell enough copies to get 55,000 riders in the same event. Boo!

Well it took me a while to weed through the many candidates, but I finally narrowed down the single worst track in the game.
Alps > Grand Golliat > One Step Ahead
I think it's so named because every time you take one step ahead, you invariablly fall off either the left or right side of the track. Thats because the track is basically a narrow line suspended over one giant death pit. It was a bitch and a half to get the trick it and race it done but now that it's over I can rest assured I never have to play it again.
In other news, fuck yeah:
Bronze or better on all 153 drops in Explore. Feeling very accomplished today!

Why am I not seeing the codes anywhere? Is there something special I have to do?
Edit: Figured it out.
Dammit, i successfully deleted myself from facebook, not too long ago, this is not fair >.<

Would love the option of hiding those pop ups. It's annoying when I'm just trying to chill with the game and not compete.
His signature trick is pretty nice.
