Anything to add to this game would help tremendously.

there hasnt been a game to date that ive played that hasnt had to be patched.
DLC is the way to go. look at probably the best selling game out... call of duty. add up the cost to buy all the maps and stuff.
madden has losts of glitches. youtube it. if you go check madden forums, people hate it compared to older versions. sound familiar?
im not sticking up for the game, because im pretty mad about not having the JS7 crib yet. just stating facts.

Guess were playing different games.. I just went online with X Box about 10 months ago. I have plenty of games I play without ever having a patch. Maybe it's just an online thing?

Call of Duty kicks ass without buying anything. Yes, it's there if you want to spend money, but the game is just fine without buying new maps.

As for Madden, the last one I bought was 09', so I don't know about the new ones. And again, never had to have a patch to make me want to play it more. Yes, the Madden games are glitchy, but guessing it's alot more involved than a mx game? Oh, and it doesn't get old playing it after a week, like Alive did for me.
Lol COD is notorious for patches, what are they up to now on Black Ops, patch 9 i believe! Fifa has been patched, GT5 was patched 1 week after release.

To be honest the only game i can remember owning that wasnt patched, would be Rock Band.

For everyone saying the game wasn't finished when they released it...

Uh, they said well in advance that's how they were planning it. The game was significantly cheaper than its predecessors and then ater it came out there would be DLC as an option to fully expand the game.
Uh, I don't remember hearing them say we wouldn't have any sx tracks at launch till just before launch.

Cheaper? It was 20 bucks cheaper, I'd rather spend the 20 extra bucks and have a game I like and didn't tire of after a week. And is it true you have to pay five bucks to get two new bikes? One of them being a 150, who is going to be racing that? And the rumor has been it's going to be six months till we get sx tracks? Is that true?

It's been a month, where the hell are the DLC's? I would think you would have some DLC tracks ready to go by now?

Like I said I have only been online for months not years, and all the games I have I ususally play with friends, my kid, or alone and haven't needed a patch to enjoy the game.. If your a gamer, and you play online, that's a different story, That's not me so I don't know much about it.

You know, the game is fun but they made some basic mistakes that are hard to forgive (besides the ones already mentioned by others):
1. Online playing is better but not reliable. (Normaly it takes me 2 to 3 attemps to connect and yesterday could not connect to Pro MX but was able to connect to Amateur)
2. When on spectator mode they put the text IN FRONT OF THE BIKE and you cant see clearly the rider and his bike.
3. Only the riders that make the podium can see the podium. Lame. Its rewarding when your bike is in the podium.
4. A lot of times you connect to a room that has 1 or 2 players parked on the gate and like 6 or 7 people on the room waiting for the game to finish. When a player is inactive it has to be kicked.

I know this does not affect the game play itself (it is a lot of fun when playing) but they do make these guys look like amateurs. Just my 2 cents.

2. When on spectator mode they put the text IN FRONT OF THE BIKE and you cant see clearly the rider and his bike. totaly agree with you here, i wish it was just go away after a sec.
3. Only the riders that make the podium can see the podium. Lame. Its rewarding when your bike is in the podium. im not sure i get you here, cant everyone see the podium?
4. A lot of times you connect to a room that has 1 or 2 players parked on the gate and like 6 or 7 people on the room waiting for the game to finish. When a player is inactive it has to be kicked. This is really annoying, THQ actually have there own server and it is a server issue, they should be able to fix this without a patch.

1 - the new Tiger Woods Masters game is very very structured towards DLC. half of the tournaments in the career mode are not included in the game and require purchase. also, while playing you pick up sponsors. you can either spend hours trying to max the sponsor goals for all the equipment, or you can purchase the fully unlocked sponsorship. since i'm a huge fan of Ping, i purchased the Ping package with all the top end clubs, clothes, etc. don't think that's a good idea? look around the Tiger game forums... i think it's a great model. play if you want, pay if you don't want.

2 - the clerk at the Game Stop by your house has his mind wrapped around Dragons Age or The Elder Scrolls, they aren't going to tell you shit about a mx game which is a niche franchise.

just my opinion.
Haven't played or bought the Masters game yet, so don't know about it.. I do have other Tiger Wood's games and haven't been online with them and they kick ass.

THQ not giving us sx track at launch would be like EA not giving us driver at launch for a golf game. Yeah you could still play and have a good time, but really whats the point?

How many tracks did we get in the game, 6-7? Don't give me that short track crap either, that's a total waste. Snow? Jungle? What's next, do we get to play in Iran? Paid 40 bucks for a bunch of tracks I will never play.

And the guy at the Game Stop by my house may be into some stupid games, but when people come in and tell him a game sucks, it's not really him giving the review. I just went in over the weekend and asked if the game has been selling? He told me he hasn't sold one in a while. What's that tell you? Tells me word of mouth for this game is horrible.

Not everyone who buys a video game is going to play online. Plenty of kids don't go online with games, guess their just assed out?

THQ could of done themselves a huge favor by having a demo of the game, get some feedback and move forward. Instead we got all this hype about a game that even die hard mx fans are not real happy with. Yeah I know, there are some that simply love it, but they are in the minority.

I think being able to purchase ad ons is a great idea, just don't neglect the game for those that never will.

THQ doesn't seem to have a solid plan. They changed for Reflex, instead of building on that change, they dumped it and went another direction. That's not how you build a following, unless something was really wrong with Reflex.

The game is a total fail at this point.

$4.25 for one bike here in Aussie. What a rip off. Paid $64 for the game, so by the time we buy the dlc so we can have the full game, we would have paid $100+. Would rather have paid the $100 straight up and have the full game now. Or I could have waited 6 months and bought it in the bargin bin for $20.

Was on Elliots twitter, he said possibly a couple hours, but this is only for the compound at this stage and said new DLC would be next week.

I just started playing the other day, and so far I like it. My only real bitch is the taunting, it's just dumb. I play in first person camera view and every time I make a pass on someone, my rider's left arm shoots across the field of vision. There definitely needs to be an option to turn that off.

No, it's because us PS3 owners got fucked somehow.


I play the game maybe once every four to 6 days. It's the only one they've made that I've had to force myself to like, and I'm having a tough time convincing myself. I'm hoping the JS7 Compound will help, and I won't play the game again until it's available.
