Online multiplayer

I know its a long shot, but it would be cool to be able to play Bike or Die online with other people in real time...

Mr.pickle.
that would be pretty cool,but I think thats stil a few years off......unfortunatly....

actually, ghost bike is a timeshifted multiplayer
unless you meant something more than just racing (which could also be interesting, e.g. "BoD Capture The Flag"! i wonder how bad is the network latency of the typical wireless internet connection... such games do not tolerate lag )

btw. i didn't want to allow for downloading other players' ghosts, because any BoD recording contains all information needed to submit a new game, and having thousands of such files available for download could help "cheaters". however, the recently improved flash player already receives the replay information using a completely different format (which is useless for submission but can be replayed easily), so now it will be possible to add "download the best public ghost" option into the game.

Sz,

All of my top slot public replays go to private if that option is added.
Mr.pickle.
in that case dont do it sz....im sure mike and vega and all the other top players would do that also,meaning we wouldent be able to see any of the top times.......,altho it seems you could do something like make it avalible for veiwing and not for download....

i guess it means we would need the additional permission level: "secret" "public" and "downloadable"

new idea: "public" (but not "downloadable") recordings could be downloaded but only in "coarse mode": position is only updated once a second, so you can approximately compare yourself to the other player but without revealing any details about the riding technique

another new idea: a part of the recording could be made public or downloadable while the rest remain secret (eg. 20 seconds starting with 0:15)

I just like the three options, plus this feature

I don't have WiFi on my Treo (the 800 and the 850 aren't out yet!) so I'm not bothered about real time multiplayer, but how about trackmania style multiplaying, where all of the times are downloaded (but not recordings) and you can see instantly where that puts you in the wrld when you finish a level, and you can race against the closest public recording for rank 1,10,25,50,100,150 etc. Now this would be good.
Mr.pickle.
I love it sz do it!
