Greetings, Riders

Thursday May 28th will mark the release of Trials Rising’s 11th post-launch update. Let’s take a look at what’s included in the patch.


The Trials Rising Live team has been working to clean-up some incorrect times on the leaderboards. Over the last few weeks, some clean-up has been happing on the leaderboards and more is on the horizon after TU11 is released:

• Recalculated global score for all players in the top 200
  
• Recalculated global score for various other profiles identified as having inconsistencies
  
• Removing scores achieved using an exploit on the Out of Control skill game
  
• Removing scores achieved due to a bug on the Texas Turmoil Stadium Finals
  
• Removing scores achieved using an exploit on the track Tilting at Windmills

[PC] Fixed a network issue that caused 1-2 second pauses during gameplay due to calls being made to the server


[ALL PLATFORMS] Fixed a physics exploit on the track Tilting at Windmills


[ALL PLATFORMS] Increase cache time for active feed (improves loading times when reentering Track Central after playing a track)


[ALL PLATFORMS] Changed behavior of the current song UI to not reappear when restarting the track

[ALL PLATFORMS] Current song UI will be hidden during gameplay when the music volume is turned to zero

[ALL PLATFORMS] Fixed Gear Crate preview to display all items organized by rarity

[ALL PLATFORMS] Changed Next Medal UI on Track Central Ninja tracks to display faults instead of time

[STADIA] Fixed a bug that displayed “#0” after Stadia profile names on the leaderboard


[ALL PLATFORMS] Fixed mismatching IDs for various textures in the Track Editor’s Decal tool

[ALL PLATFORMS] Fixed a bug that caused the “Easy to Learn, Hard to Master” sticker to have a black
background instead of transparent

[ALL PLATFORMS] Fixed a bug that changed the appearance of Terrain Materials texture #182


[STADIA] Fixed a bug that caused input setting to not be retained when rebooting the game

[ALL PLATFORMS] – After the May 28 patch Track Pack Icons on the world map will incorrectly display their price as “Free” when viewed in offline mode. The Track Pack cannot be purchased offline and after reconnecting, the correct Acorn price will update and display before confirming a purchase. This bug is expected to be fixed in our next patch.

The tenth patch for Trials Rising is upon us and we’re kind of excited about this one. This patch includes some new features or improvements that have long been on our wishlist. Some bigger, some smaller, all frequently requested by players. Let’s jump right in and see what’s new in Trials Rising’s April Patch, expected to release Wednesday, April 8th.


Are you an apex Alpaca rider? Maybe you dominate on the Donkey. With the release of this patch, bike curious players will be able to compete across Trials Rising’s world of tracks on any available bike and save their time to bike-specific leaderboards. Bike leaderboards will be available on in-game Trials Tracks, Stadium Finals & Ninja Tracks for any bike that is available to ride. Bike leaderboards are accessed from track leaderboards under the BIKE tab. Bike leaderboards will only start to record entries after the patch is released, times made on different bikes prior to the patch will not appear on bike leaderboards.


The thrill of competition is a big part of Trials Rising but sometimes you might just want to have some alone time on the track. With the new Disable Ghost option found in the Game Options menu, you can remove most ghosts from the single-player experience of Trials Rising. No ghosts on tracks, in loading screens or the results screens. There are a few exceptions: ghosts will still appear when playing Challengers, completing Contracts that require beating a ghost and in Stadium Finals.


Sometimes you’re just not feeling it and want to move on to the next. If we’re talking about tracks in private multiplayer or songs on the soundtrack we’ve got two new options for you. In Private Multiplayer matches the host can skip the current track with the restart button and move on to the next track in the playlist.

At nearly any point in the game it’s also now possible to skip the current song playing. This can be done with a push of a button or through the pause menu. This feature also includes a new UI element that displays the name of the current song in the upper right corner of the screen. This element appears briefly when a new song starts and when first loading a new track.


The collection of bike & rider gear available in Gear Crates is getting a lot larger. Up until now, Gear Crates have included around 25-30 customization items. The new gigafied Gear Crates have 167 different items to potentially pull from when opened.



[ALL PLATFORMS] The order of bikes in the bike selection menu adjusted to move Helium & Donkey directly after the Mantis


[ALL PLATFORMS] New stickers, including some created by and for Trials Elite players are available in Track Editor & Sticker Store


[ALL PLATFORMS] Fixed an issue that caused icons to flicker when viewing the “Display” category in the decal tool


[ALL PLATFORMS] Optimizations to track thumbnail loading


[ALL PLATFORMS] Fixed a connection error that occurred when trying to buy or sell certain customization items


[PC] Adjusted behavior when the game window is not the active window on the desktop

Welcome back Riders,

In our previous entry, we took an in-depth look at how the economy will work in Trials Rising. If you happened to miss this Dev Diary, you can find it here[forums.ubi.com].

This week, we’re going to be taking a closer look at a topic that’s on the tip of everyone’s lips, cross platforms features! In Trials Rising, many things will be shared across platforms, and in this article, we’re going break down what exactly this means.


Trials has always been about competition, and with Trials Rising, this is no different. Leaderboards were where the competition began and now with Rising that competition will be bigger than ever before. In Trials Rising you will see times set by players across all platforms. Now, you’ll be able see how you stack up against every Trials player around the globe. Watch their replays, play against their ghosts and uncover new rivalries!


The iconic Track Central will once again be getting the cross platform treatment. Tracks from Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC will be available to all players. Performance between these platforms can vary and that may impact the experience playing tracks created on different platforms.


Missed out on our Customization[forums.ubi.com] & Sharing[forums.ubi.com] articles? The Gear Store is where you can go to browse new gear for your bike and rider, including customizations made by other players. Just like Track Central the Gear Store will feature customizations made by players on all platforms.


As you progress through Trials Rising, your accomplishments, stats, custom content and your bike and rider’s appearance will all be stored on your Player Profile. Of course this article is about cross-platform features so we would not be bringing it up if the profile wasn’t also cross-platform. In Trials Rising you will be able to visit your friends (or rivals) Player Profile and see their latest progress regardless of which platform they play on.


In order to push cross-platform features further than we have in the past a Ubisoft Account will be required to access online features on all platforms. In Trials Fusion we were unable to display usernames across platforms and had to use a generic name, FusionShared, as the creator profile for tracks shared cross-platform. By using Ubisoft Accounts we can ensure that in Trials Rising proper usernames can be displayed on creations, leaderboard entries & profiles on all platforms. Browsing the Gear Store or Track Central and stumble across something that catches your eye, now you’ll be able see who created what regardless of which platform they’re on.

That said, not all us have linked our Ubisoft Account to our consoles account. There’s multiple way’s to do this and you can find out more by reading one of our dedicated FAQs[support.ubi.com].

That about wraps things up for the Trials Rising Development Diary series. We’re only 1 week away from launch and we can’t wait for all of you to get your hands on the game. Be sure to try it out early this weekend, February 21-25 for our Open Beta and come next Tuesday, we’ll see you on the leaderboards.
