I have a 6:10 on Motherland, and am sure will 3-star it sooner or later. But I would be miffed if I'd got the 3rd star and you made me play it again. So for you it's getting people like that upset, or upsetting people by not correcting motherland and depriving people of a "fair" leaderboard spot. Talk about rocks and hard places My suggestion: Option 1: Keep motherland, but with following changes: Reinstate the shortcut (wait, hear me out), so everyone gets a chance to get that 2 min or so time. Change star objectives as (a) Finish level without crash (b) Finish level in 3 min (or whatever time it takes, I don't know) (c) Get all coins. Introduce coins on the actual above path so that people who have only cheated and got three stars by taking short-cuts are forced to take the above path. This will actually still upset people who have got 3-stars with 6-min goal fair and square, but they will not have to do all the work again to achieve that goal which will happen if you simply reintroduce Motherland. This will also make the leaderboards fair again. Option 2: Remove Motherland all together, which would be a shame since it's a fun level. I am not in favour of your suggestion at all. And in fact am not going to attempt the level anymore till you give an official take on what's going to happen. I'd really hate it if I had to replay the level after achieving 6-min star objective. PS: What's up with Way of the Sun. A 8 to 10 min level without crashing. You cruel, cruel people PPS: Please provide us a way of sorting user based levels based on their difficulty, and within that, alphabetically. Also, can users assign their own star objectives in future? That'd be really cool. And I am sure not too difficult to code? The contest has thrown up some marvelous levels. I'd be glad to support you guys with some more IAPs btw.
Sounds fair and appropriate given the fact That Fake scores would be erased and best legit scores are still doable as the game is young. I believe your solution is the best for actual players Like me and future new player That Will look for "fair" competition.Cant Wait to see such an update released Since then i'll still be enjoying that great game and buying iAP content to support.
Not imposible...I got 3 stars and 4.05 time. I am wondering how 1st in ranking has 130.000 pts more than me, that mean 130 secs!! My time in other courses is also very very good, even 1.10 in JB IV
I've still got the problem with the update - As have a lot of other people if the comments on the app store are to be believed - I've just sent another bug report to apple - I can't believe this has been going on for 2 days now - If its not fixed soon I'm going to be asking for a refund
I can't play the game either. There will be refunds and 1 star reviews if new buyers run into this problem. I'm still waiting because the devs have been nice so far.
Hello everyone. As some of you have already noticed, there seems to be a problem to get the newest update working for some people. We are aware about this issue and are investigating further. There is nothing wrong with the update itself, but the update process is not working properly in some countries. Sadly there is no waterproof solution for this since it is something that is out of our hands. We received some reports saying that it started working after a while for others, while for others it still remains broken. We submitted a new update this morning to get around this issue. The new update contains 1 new level and the main purpose for the update is to replace the current update instead of adding lots of content. We apologize for the inconvenience! Sit tight, help is on the way! http://bikebaron.blogspot.com/2012/01/problems-with-update.html
It's weird that other apps update fine. But I appreciate the devs trying to fix it. In any case I've enjoyed the game very much.
Now the download doesn't even start at all. Before it would get to around 60% and then restart over and over.
Bike Baron nominated for Best Sports Game at IMGA! Please support us, thanks! http://www.imgawards.com/EN/nominee-fiche-1016-22.php
Aww shucks. Feeling bad for you guys, and even worse for people whose progress has been reset! Hope it gets sorted out soon.
I've noticed a small bug with the level Way of the Sun. The level plays fine when going through "by myself" but when i turn on the ghost, it gets incredibly laggy and sluggish. Even the seconds counter is slowed down. I turned the ghost off and it was fine again.
I would keep Motherland and its scores as it is now. Those few who needed to cheat to get through it are not a competition for the better players, if you (anyone) did cheat just to get better jump at the top spots, you should be ashamed of yourself. And anyone passing the level legit has my greatest respects of their skills and ability to play Bike Baron. You truly are his equals. Small tip, possibly overlooked by many, when aiming for the higher spots: Every second counts in scores, even easy levels The ghost is saddly almost as performance intensive as baron himself is so saddly he might not be usable in the biggest levels such as way of sun, motherland and even joker baron IV
Just finished my level "King of Barons" Code : BZB5 Try it and tell me your impression. P.S.Would love if it would be featured,or made as a short ingame level. My records (no crash, all coins) : 0:49 Best time 0:30.409
I ve been trying nocrash on way of sun a lot of Times and im encountering à small bug every Time. When i reach the tunnel (you must pass on rear wheel) i can Never pass it on the first try. I would always crash with the head of baron touching the top. If i do a second try Or a reset Just before, this NEVER crash. Ill keep trying but im perplex
yeah i noticed this too. the way i have figured out how to pass this is to not go full throttle, just keep tapping the go button to keep going without going full. this seems to work for me 75% of the time
How to "ride" those awkward bumps.Could you help me please? On my record run I got till the 3rd bump at the end,but never passed it
