Without a place to download anyone's creation, I can't justify the purchase of this. I'm not going to start making friends with dedicated level makers just to get their levels from them. They dropped the ball big time by not having this feature included. It's not like it can't be done. Fight Night Round 4 does it with created boxers and it works like a charm.

They would have had to hire a couple of full time moderators for content, like say for LBP. Can an Xbox Live Arcade game justify this?

Why hire moderators at all? Why not just have the community moderate it? Even if some crap goes through, or some good levels go under, at least we'd still have a community of levels to sift through. I was under the impression that was why we were paying $15 in the first place, for the community aspects of the game.

Theres probably some reason, I would expect such an obvious question would have come up in their discussions. I suspect its $15 because they believe its worth that much!



Tease.

Although that sounds like a great idea it wouldn't work for the simple reason being that the moment a child (under 16/18) downloaded a level that is classed as offensive Microsoft would be in a LOT of trouble for it, this could easily happen before users even had a chance to report it or rate it to get it removed,

 

I would LOVE to see proper online sharing for Trials HD but the way it is at the moment I can't see it happening for any Arcade game without proper investment and moderation, they could have at least added uder ratings and allowed us to see how many people have played our levels we have made as I have no idea!

First Splosion Man, and now this. Why does XBLA have better games than Xbox360 this year?


althoughsplosion and traILS  are good games, they are not the same as retail released games.

hence retail releases are better.



...not much time to post anymore, used to be awesome on here really good fond memories from VGchartz...

PSN: Skeeuk - XBL: SkeeUK - PC: Skeeuk

really miss the VGCHARTZ of 2008 - 2013...

hence retail releases are better.

I actually prefer XBLA games. I like turning on my console with the controller and not ever having to stand up and switch a disc!

As for the community created levels: I don't really care. I played some of the stuff that users created for Little Big Planet and wasn't too impressed.

I also took a look at the editor for the 5G awarded for saving a level. I really couldn't imagine going through the steps involved in designing a level with a GAMEPAD! To do stuff like that I want to use a mouse AND ZOOM OUT AS FAR AS I WANT!

Anyone actually completed Inferno II yet? OMG.....



I suspect the lack of global sharing is down to there being no central server to upload your creations too. Imagine having the community trying to chat with your box to find your shared tracks.

Edit :- Come to think of it, that doesn't make sense cos it'd mean you could only get tracks when your friends are online, and I'm not sure that that's the case 

It's also a feature worth leaving out to make the second game more appealing.

The editor's a pain in the ass anyway.

The game's brilliant. JUST ONE MORE GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



^you can share tracks with friends if they are online and offline, just as long as you have them on your friends list,

They do need a rating system though and the persons username on the track your playing who made it as i have loads on mine with no idea who i got them from now so can't let them know if i liked the track they made, would also be good to know how many people have played your tracks!
