    Hey all,
    Would love to get your feedback on the following classic tracks selected and call out any that you think I may have missed, there will be future Mountain campaign as well:

    #1 - New Track with 80% completion
    #2 - Mountain Mania by television - http://www.freeriderhd.com/t/6383 (30% completion rate, good checkpoint placement, teaches some new tricks)
    #3 - New Track with 85% completion
    #4 - New Track with 40% completion
    #5 - Mountain Adventure by d3ck3r - http://www.freeriderhd.com/t/3323 (strong rating, nice detail, easy track with +70% completion)
    #6 - New Track with 50% completion
    #7 - New Track with 20% completion
    #8 - Monster Energy - THEPENGUINs - http://www.freeriderhd.com/t/8346 (felt like THEPENGUINs needed a track, many are too difficult, this is a nice 50% completion rate, shorter track)
    #9 - spelunking - DrManBearPig - http://www.freeriderhd.com/t/1079 (30% completion, difficulty ramps up a bit, great detail)
    #10 - Wild China - DrManBearPig - http://www.freeriderhd.com/t/1171 (20% completion, difficulty ramps up, great detail)
    #11 - Elements of Style - cookiemonster - http://www.freeriderhd.com/t/1109 (longer track, no checkpoints but easier with +50% completion for those that skipped #10)
    #12 - New track with 6% completion

    Thoughts on the classics selected?

    Some that were suggested did not pass the "I can beat it test":

    Forever Falls - great detail but if there were a couple more checkpoints could be doable but has a 6% completion rate which would have to bump the current #12. http://www.freeriderhd.com/t/1123
    Whistler mt. - no checkpoints with 11% completion http://www.freeriderhd.com/t/1002

    Replace #2
    #8 should be California redwood, no exceptions.

    Do you have a suggestion for #2? #2 seemed to have a good flow with checkpoint placement with +30% completion rate. Also liked the peak of the one jump having to gain speed to enter the next.

    California redwood failed my "i can beat it" unfortunately. Only 8 people have beaten it.

    Idk, but I think you guys should stop deciding for yourselves and letting people who play it well decide (Ruling out Freez and JacobCahoon before they ask to jump on the train)

    Also to add to my statement, no exceptions. The track isn't hard.

    I don't ghost on this site. my pc doesn't like your website anymore lol. I.e. Crashed browser, page 404'ing and just the general lag playing.


    e; *Sigh* The worst part is that my current WIP is bigger than California redwood and it's not loading here.

    Maybe if we were to ever have a forest/nature campaign section California redwood would be great for it. Other than that all the tracks chosen are great and I'm totally down with all of them in the campaign

    What a way to let the community grow.

    Also, If some one like you is probably an amazing biker is the judge, you will rate hard tracks as easy-medium.

    I do think more player feedback would be nice though so we dont get another action campaign (sorry eric)

    I played the first 3 u had in the list, And I think the first 2 need to be switched. (considering 5 is +1%, and the current 2 is 30%)

    Tracks I would love to see:

    I'm pretty bad at this game and I beat it in about 10 tries. Maybe a bonus level or something? It's really good.

    Eric What's wrong with having a challenging track on the campaign? If someone isn't able to beat it they can just skip it right?
    Having challenging tracks on the campaign would take more skill and it could possibly improve riders, you cant keep playing easy smooth tracks forever. California Redwood should def be on it in my opinion, it's a beautiful track and all it takes is a little skill.

    Whistler mt. is one of my favorite tracks on that list. Maybe you guys could sneak in 2 checkpoints and have it be one of the highlights of the campaign? Not sure if that's the correct thing to do though :p. I'd say wait with forever falls and other tracks by Hawnks/futuremtns for a harder mountains 2 campaign. There should be enough tracks out there for that.

    I get that all you guys looks at the detail of a track, like redwood, but let's be honest here, this is the campaign and it should be about gameplay and only a bit about looks I think. To me, Redwood is a nightmare to play and not fun at all. I like a challenge but this one is just frustrating and had no thought put into the ride itself. (I don't dislike the track, I think it looks awesome but I just don't think it would fit in any campaign, at all)

    If tracks were solely about gameplay we'd be on a laggy site like trackmill. Should be about both and being so this is mountains Detail > Play.

    FREEZ , Because FRHD have worked Chucks shaft enough, I personally think there are better tracks that can be put in here. Nether the less, being so ITzChuck would prob be in other campaigns anyway, purely because his tracks are easy.
