Have they shown any of the skill games yet?
hnnnnnnnngh local MP looks so good
I imagine it won't look that good on 360 though
I never had an issue with the framerate (it was far from 60 though). It was the tearing on tracks (especially gigatrack?).
Is that note accurate in the PC beta that says the next section unlocks this weekend? I forget what date it says, the 12th maybe. I just got it so I don't know if previous worlds have unlocked progressively.
There are only medium tracks available at the moment, and I'm dying for more to do. The unique challenges for each track are interesting, but I don't think they are registering properly - not that there's much to do with your earnings yet.

I can't wait. Looks really really fun
That's been my experience as well for both Xbox 360 games, but... I'm still going to buy it. Looks too good to pass up.
I set myself personal targets and try not to get upset that I'll never platinum everything. Usually gold on everything except extreme, and then extreme I'm happy to even pass
I think trials frontier on iPad has ghosts to race against for your friends (or global). You get a rider on the track but I don't know if it is replaying their movements or just simulating it based on how fast they finished. You do see them retry tricky sections though.

What is the deal with the release date? OP says the 16th, and I recall hearing that date announced a while back.
However, the store on my PS4 and Amazon.com both say the 15th.

How can I play webms on iOS? I love the idea of the higher image quality but even googling, I couldn't quite figure out how to do it. Any help would be appreciated - I'm heartily awaiting Trials Fusion (and I'm glad that I forgot about it until about a week ago when it came back on my radar.)
You can't really. The most recent workaround I saw was to download the VLC player app, then when browsing with Safari you can open the webm with VLC. It's a giant pain in the ass that pretty much defeats the purpose of webms as gif replacements.
OT - Just pre-ordered this today and got gold on the available tracks...I want more.

I noticed the tweet way after it took place. :/ But IGN posted a video last week of the developers showing off some of the toughest tracks in the game on the PS4

So I was not the only one hating them.

I'm pretty annoyed at the resolution thread. You can see before that opened, that I was praising Red Lynx for their technical coding abilities and contrary to what some people seem to think 900p at 60 fps with the kind of lighting and effects (and level size) that Trials uses is actually a real technical *achievement*.
I can't wait for this game, and I'm sure it'll be a technically fantastic achievement on every platform it's on, because Red Lynx have always pushed the latest technological advancements into their titles.
I'm sure that this is going to be one of the technically more impressive games released so far, just like previous games in the series were, even if you have to scratch beneath the surface to realize.
Personally, I can't wait to get my hands on it. I loved Evolution to bits, even if I wasn't especially good at it.

PC beta seems to be improving even more. Texture pop-in when retrying back a long distance was the only noticeable issue from what I've played and they appear to have improved it. They've also added even more graphics options. I've had a silky smooth 60fps at 1440P w/ 680 2gb + 3570k.
edit: Wow, new Ultra settings look really really good from what I can tell.

Let's not spill that over into here, but in short, highly unlikely. It's their real time lighting (deferred) that pushes 1080p out of reach, and the game has to have real time lighting due to the way tracks are built (and it having a track editor).
On 360 they chose not to out put a full 720p image (in both Trials HD and Evolution) because it was the best concession to make to keep them at 60 fps with all the other impressive tech. This was because of the memory architecture of the system, and Red Lynx did some amazing things optimizing for the memory architecture of the 360 in those games.
That this is 900p is absolutely no reason to think any less of Red Lynx when a first party game like Killer Instinct can only manage 720p running at the same framerate and using similar kinds of lighting techniques.
They're pushing much more than a first party title at a much higher resolution. That's something they should be getting credit for.
This game is going to be an achievement on whichever system you pick it up for. I don't remotely doubt it. I'm sure Xbox One owners that buy the game will be suitably impressed.

Had this in the checkout at Walmart but got caught by "sale not allowed" dammit!
Can't say I didn't see it coming
Agreed, really not liking the tricks. I'm not a fan of the challenges either. They feel pretty pointless and sometimes just annoying, but at least it seems like they don't count towards career completion and can be more or less ignored.
Same. Any levels that are reliant on some stupid flips is potentially a game breaker.
But if they aren't essential, what are they here for?
There are FMX tracks/skill games scattered throughout the campaign. In the regular trials tracks, they are totally optional - you receive no points for them either.
Re: the broken beta - is it Win 8 only? Still works fine for me and the new Ultra graphics are awesome.

I have 300 uplay points and I hope they are enough to unlock "rewards" for trials , child of light and watchdogs. Damn you ubi!
Yeah...Windows 8 only... they posted saying we have to wait until Monday for people to come into the office

Is it against the rules to do it in the OT?
Having people to compete against is pretty necessary in a game like this.
It sure is. If you spend enough time with it though, you'll eventually figure out what they're trying to tell you. Here are a couple posts from the Ubi forum which explain the trick system in a bit more detail:

Yes, BUT go look at the top replays for several of the tracks. People are using the tricks to physically propel them faster over certain jumps and whatnot. To me this ruins the game. I hate the tricks and wish they were impossible to even perform outside of the trick tracks. Keep that separate from core Trials.

All this negative trick talk is really unfortunate. It was my one worry with this game. I hope they patch it to make the tricks inconsequential during regular events.
