Watching a vid of the PS4 version, and it definitely feels like the loading screens to select your bike are longer than they should be.

There's no sign of the $20 version yet because the store hasn't been updated yet. It's not some conspiracy. The deluxe version is available since it's the equivalent of the retail version but digital, hence the $40. Standalone will be along when they update the store like all digital download games are on the network.
if thats the biggest complaint i think they've done something right

I've read a few comments about the game on a German forum and it seems that people aren't really happy with it. I think the best description would be "It's Trials but with unnecessary Ubisoft bloat."

Is the US PSN store for the PS4 as unreliable, time wise, as the PS3 store?
AKA when does the store usually update?
-EDIT-
Nevermind..booted up the PS4 and theres it is.

Apparently the review embargo goes until tomorrow.

So everyone that's wondering: review embargo is tomorrow. And the game is available right now to purchase on PS4 but only the $40 version including the season pass.
mine just got shipped
PC version on an SSD:
Developers need to understand that if something in the menu doesn't load instantly they should simplify it until it does.

As someone who's had kowaku on his friends list for years, he's one of the few people I'd watch play this game. He's that damn good at Trials.

Well PC will have an edge as usual but if you have trouble waiting an extra wait get PS4 if you can wait get PC.

What is the Ubisoft bloat? and what does it do to ruin the game?
What I like:
-It's very pretty
-Track Central is going to be amazing as time goes on. You can setup custom categories basically for certain types of tracks or just to show tracks from a specific author. It also shows a "Monthly Track Challenge" is coming soon.
-Music isn't cringe worthy like the music in Evo was
-The FMX stuff is actually fun and isn't forced down your throat if you just want to play Trials like you always have
-Solid 60fps
What I don't:
-Slow loading times for the bikes seems silly
-There are plot points being discussed by AI characters, but they get cutoff when you go back to your last checkpoint, so if you fail and instinctively press O like I do, the conversation just cuts off and doesn't replay
-Feels short. I've only played a couple of hours and I'm already in the next to last set of levels, unless there are secret sets of levels that it doesn't show.
-The game feels like it's at a solid 60 fps, but if you see your shadow in the background, the shadow looks choppy. Like somehow your shadow is 15 fps.

There isn't anything during the gameplay or the menue that is bloat. i mean its a fairly seamless to starting a race and jumping to the garage to jumping to another race.
So glad you could turn those voices off. First thing I did after completing a track.

The ad on the Games dash of XB1 says this releases on the 16th 
. Probably just going to get this $40 version on PS4 anyways though, but maybe the $20 version isn't out until tomorrow for whatever reason?
. Probably just going to get this $40 version on PS4 anyways though, but maybe the $20 version isn't out until tomorrow for whatever reason?Played through the first few zones, got a couple of third and fourth leaderboard places (probably be moved down by tonight) and it certainly feels like trials to me. Not too keen on the FMX stuff, I'd much prefer the offline multiplayer to be online in it's stead.
Props for the Speedball 2 reference.

Are you in the US? I think only the US get the game today. I'm in the UK and the release date for us is the 16th.The ad on the Games dash of XB1 says this releases on the 16th

Come on where is my regular version for 20$ ?!?! :/
Cause fuck you Ubisoft, I'm not paying additional 20$ for ''early access''
Edit:
@AkuMifune
No ps4(digital) version. Right now you can only buy deluxe edition for 40$

On the PC version? My Beta downloaded as soon as I purchased it.
SO any idea if we lose "everything" when the Beta switches to the legit version? I'm worried I'll have some kind of epic run that won't be permanent.
And the sci-fi direction they went with is...interesting. Not where I would have liked them to go, but obviously haven't seen it all.
This isn't the case at all, you can cycle and select your bike the instant that screen loads.
What I expect that person's doing is waiting for the bike visual representation to load up - which you don't have to do at any point.
Looking at the SSD screenies above it looks like whoever that is seems to be doing the same thing. Seems a bit of a misrepresentation of the game.
The official release date says the 16th. My guess is that the $40 version is exaclty for that purpose. Charging $40 to people who can't wait an extra day. I think the $20 version releases tomorrow.

Yep, in the US, checked my dash last night and saw two ads for Trials saying it was coming on the 16th.
Same here but US PSN account does wonders. ;-)
Wednesday is when the download games go up on the Bone. It's not a conspiracy.
I am buying the $40 version for $32 since I want a disc. Shrug.
As above I'm about 40% done on the main mode and I've not come across any story elements as such.
Who said there's one?
I've come across no stability issues at all on PS4 whilst streaming at the same time which can sometimes throw a spanner in the works.

Not true, Strike Suit was released last Tuesday, the 8th.
It's the same game. The campaign has a lady AI talking about some crap. Lol
I'm talking about the PS4
For a comparison of style she reminds me of that AI in Far Cry Blood Dragon.
I don't pay much attention.
Krakn did, a few posts above mine, but I guess he was wrong.
A voice over the normal levels sounds stupid too but if you can just turn it off, I guess it doesn't matter

This is kind of worrying... I hope it's not shorter than the previous games.

There's no story mode. There's an ai voice (Portal-esque) you can turn off. I turned it off after playing through the tracks once. No big deal.

Beta on pc has half of the stuff.. and you can gold it in 45 mins. There are challenges and stuff but still... it's shorter than evolution for sure.

A lot of us think the objects we're trying to select in a menu should be visible when trying to make our selections. Call me a crazy, but that's how it should work.

Yeah I guess we know why the Physical version comes with the dlc pass now.
