| | | I don't fully agree with Prayer's idea, because many people are good but canīt get to many good times because since there are a lot of players in BoD that records are so close together that 10 positions can be 5 seconds. People also decide to only play only the levelpacks that they like or some donīt even buy BoD. I do agree that Standard levels are easier than custom levelpacks but maybe that's good because SLPs help the players get better and try other levelpacks. |

Ruben
| | | That's my opinion. |

| | | no comment.
but simple levels make no meaning for me. |

playing level packs that are in online competition is more fun than playing LP's that r not there.
erm, u mean that without buying BoD u can register and submit recordings?
You Qi
it makes no meanings for u, but probobly it makes more meanings for 100 or 200 players who find that LP's in online competition are too hard to play.
more peoples play now -> more peoples will play Bike or Die Version 2 (if sz will make it) -> more life in Bike or Die community.
or probably LP that consist only of small levels (like Oil Drop, Square etc.) would be good to have in online competition too. |
|
Ruben
| | | I know that playing LP's that are in the hall of fame is more fun but what I meant is that people who are no so good could play the standard levelpack and the better players could play the other LP's that are in the hall of fame since they are harder. |

I like simple levels, no offence to you ruben, but Ruben's first levels were simple except for WOW, which took me a while, but I enjoyed playing them more because I was able to complete them more. If they are so hard that you can't complete them, it's not as fun, especially when they aren't even a level in the online competition. |
|
Ruben
| | | I am not trying to be annoying or anything but simple and/or small levels are easy to get a perfect game so there is no fun in getting a perfect game and being like 5th because other people have the same time.
What I'm saying is that bigger levels and more comlex ones are better for hall of fame since the competition won't be so close that several times repeat. |
|
Ruben
| | | I'm glad that you liked my Ruben's Levels.
Hope you like Ruroba Levels. |

| | | think about peoples who dont play it hours long and have not so many skills - they dont need BIG, hard to complete levels.
what sence in game if level is completed only by 40-50 players? or sometimes even less... |
|
Sz
| | | well... the optimum levelpack should be easy to complete but hard to master, so novice players could take part in the competition but it would still let our champions have different times and/or use different advanced tricks to improve their times.
do you know levels, which can meet these criteria?
i ask, because maybe it is time to add another LP to the competition
we don't have to choose the entire existing levelpack. the compilation of best levels could be even better.
what do you think? |
|
PrayeR
| | | less peoples have best times - less peoples have fun playing BoD.
as i said i like "test the limits" LP.
i dont like to c LP that will make happy Ruben or You Qi and that's all. but would be good to c LP which is easy enough for many peoples.
personaly, i think that already first LP in online competition made so that peoples lost a bit of interest to BoD.
NOT ALL HAVE TIME to play HOURS long. |
|
Sz
| | | actually, prayer has not said that all levels should be easy. we already have a lot of tough and very tough levels in the recently added levelpacks. so now, let's add some easy ones.
to avoid the circumstance where top 5 players all have the same time, just choose bigger levels, something like Grand Canyon. i'm sure everyone in top 20 can complete this level at first try, most amateur players could make it after a short training. however, champions will complete this levels much more efficiently. and that's the point.
please post your candidates for such "easy yet interesting" levelpack. |
|
Ruben
| | | I agree with Sz. This level is easy to completebut itīs big so that many people can make different moves at different places in the map. |
|
PrayeR
| | | big levels...
poor Tabs and me.
|
|
PrayeR
| | | different moves?
omg, almost noone thinks, somebody made good game - shared it - and than almost all just copy it. (there a probobly 10 players who try to think).
btw, SZ maybe is's possible to make easy LP where noone can keep their games private? coz a lot of peoples use other's replays but never share their games (even games non in top10) |
|
You Qi
| | | why are you so worry bout the secret game? I feel nothing to it, is that a MUST to show off their replay for those who copy? I don't think so! |
|
PrayeR
| | | SZ
i am removing my last suggestion, because i got now that most of players won't like that.
