Trials Frontier – Shredder

Posted on 05/05/2014 Written by gospvg

The amount of gold needed to upgrade any bike parts is huge compared to the amount I can now generate from the tracks. It's now taking me two or three days of playing the game just to update one part.

The wait timers & gold needed are getting longer but the revenue generation is now forcing you down the in-app purchases route.

It's been fun for a while but it's now time for me to quit, shame because the game was very playable & if it had not taken the Free 2 Play route but been price at say 9.99 for the full game I would have happily purchased.

Luffers made a comment in the Tiny Dice Dungeon post about hating games with wait timers. I don't mind wait timers but I hate it when it's also applied against slow in-game coin generation thus the paywall is forced on the player to make the choice.

It's Shredder Time !!

Trials Frontier – Unlimited Fuel

Posted on 24/04/2014 Written by gospvg


A recent mission introduce a new boost item which allows unlimited fuel for 60 minutes !!

Perfect item for some quick cash boosting or part collecting.

Only downside is that to purchase another of these items I need 120 gems. Thankfully the slot machine & the tier 2 tracks reward you with quite a few gems so if I wanted to save up 120 it would not take too long.


With the recent new Jackal bike and quite a few upgrades to the earlier bikes I'm now revisiting the earlier tracks to get some gold medals.

There is of course the time clock cheat to refill your fuel tank by advancing the system time by an hour to recharge your tank but I don't get more than 15 or 20 mins to play during the day which I prefer to spend on the slot machine tracks for earning more money/gems or the missions tracks.

Trials Frontier – Jackal

Posted on 23/04/2014 Written by gospvg


Got the final piece to unlock the Jackal bike. Unfortunately it's stats are quite low at the moment but it does now allow me to ride the tier2 tracks.

Need to get some luck on the slot machine to get some money to upgrade.

Trials Frontier – Slot Machine

Posted on 21/04/2014 Written by gospvg


The game has now introduced a slot machine which you can spin every hour (cooldown timer which you can finish by using gems) this gives you a track to complete without any faults.

When you have completed the track you then get a turn at the slot machine for prizes which range from coins to gems.

The game does have quite a few in-app purchases but I've not felt the need yet to purchase any. My current fuel meter is 35 which gives me the chance to play seven tracks. After this I leave the game alone & come back later when it has been refilled.


I'm currently trying to get the last piece to unlock the Jackal bike. But Butch just pips me to the line, I need to try a better line through the track with a few tricks to get a better landing.

Trials Frontier – Butch

Posted on 17/04/2014 Written by gospvg


Took me quite a few attempts but I finally managed to beat Butch, he ran off to a new location & left behind part of a blueprint for a new bike. I'll still continue to upgrade the Tango bike for now.

96: Magic Beans
byugvm

What is this word “late” which you are saying? I do not recognise it and I do not understand it and I do not wish to believe it exists! Episode 96 cannot be late, for it was never scheduled. Sir, you embarrass yourself.

Arguments about timetabling aside, we would like to invite you to enjoy this most recent (at time of typing) episode of your favourite podcast! deKay, Kendrick and Orrah huddled round a warm bucket of cocoa and discussed, to varying lengths, the important news of our time – including Nintendo’s Mario Direct, more unfortunate developers losing their jobs because Money, Microsoft increasing the price of Game Pass (again, because Money) and Starbreeze getting several years into developing an eagerly anticipated Dungeons & Dragons game before pulling the plug because, well, Money. Thankfully, there’s some Good Stuff too, like chat about these games.
