Trials Fusion - Light City Run - Detailed Tutorial

[@miklotube]

The "Improbable Jump" (at about 8:20) which I have attempted 2000 times before I finally figured out a technique and maybe this will be helpful to others. From a stand still, bunny hop, landing on the other side with the rear wheel slightly before the front wheel and nearly the moment both wheels have landed, release throttle and pushing the joystick right. Basically, if you land with full throttle, you will spin up and roll over backwards, you must release the throttle and push right to "climb" the ramp. I would liken to landing on high angle ramps and pushing right to maintain a level landing while at the same time climbing. I think reversing a slight amount is helpful and then doing a bunny hop but the dynamics of the timing of the bunny hop has to be delayed a little before applying as opposed to starting at a stand still. From the stand still, i think it is a bit easier to retry rather than having to reverse each time to start a new bunny hop. Cheers to you Shady, I have learned much from your informative instructions.

Was getting back into trials fusion a month ago and the whole time I was just trying to make that one hop to the weird near vertical wall and climb onto the groom platform. You have no idea how much this helped me, thank you so much!

[@spookymunky1]

Ahhh, you are a legend :).. that jump onto the crappy little vertical ramp at around the 10min mark had been killing me hehe. Got it on the 5th attempt or so after watching that part of the vid.

[@bear-pu1qb]

Stuck on this one for a fortnight but finally beat it, rock of rages and frostbite today. thanks man!

[@UniversityOfTrials]

Great feeling isn't it.

[@connorbardon7704]

Thanks I was really having trouble with the almost vertical bunny hop, the green box and the checkpoint after that, this really helps :)

[@BeardCrabs]

Managed to zero fault this course , got real excited... realized i was too slow for platinum :(

[@misaelhallett9213]

Did it in 45 seconds but I had one fault :(

[@footshot2501]

Only my second extreme completed, and with hundreds of faults, but just to get round an extreme is good enough for me at the minute! Couldn't have done it without your videos. Thanks :) Off to fail that bloody jump on rock of rages repeatedly again :) (yes I watched your video on that too! still failing, but will prevail!)

[@UniversityOfTrials]

+Simon Barbour Good luck. There are a few specific vids on RoR where i revisit certain obstacles. Keep at it.

[@obelisk941]

the hard jump at 8:20 i got FIRST TIME i ever tried it. i went mental, i was so confused how i got it considering i struggled at every single other obstacle. while writing this i'm stuck at the second last jump with 405 faults, 20:27 in. wish me luck! i don't want to have to try that 8:20 jump again, i got so lucky with that first time around.

[@LiekABaus]

Shady, you HAVE to mention the holding the right trigger and repeatedly tapping the x button (i think circle on playstation?) technique to lift your back tire up for obstacles requiring endos. For those of us not on your level that routinely hit these obstacles a bit dirty, its a massive lifesaver. Also for the obstacle at 8:30, I used to do the bunny hop from the neutral position, but after watching you do it from leaning forward in earlier videos I actually prefer that technique now. I think the key is to let your bike settle after reversing, for quick attempts like you were doing in this vid I think starting from neutral is more consistent, but overall if you take the time to let the bike settle starting from a forward leaning position is better.

[@UniversityOfTrials]

I'm not ignoring you, just trying to find the right time to teach that. It's on my list though :)

[@LiekABaus]

UniversityOfTrials Its a pretty simple technique dont think it requires its own video or anything. Just something to mention as a sidenote when covering obstacles that require an endo, this course being very endo heavy and one where I find it to be particularly useful.

[@connorpearson7513]

It's Square on playstation, circle is return to checkpoint :)

[@zaurazi]

I managed to pass the track (with a million faults) without that - what does hitting the x button do?

[@UniversityOfTrials]

It's an exploit of the physics i guess but it's been in Trials for ever. Hold gas while tapping brake button creates some additional lift on the rear wheel (the momentum of the tyres rotates the bike a little) and this helps you get up onto high ledges when in an endo (front wheel stand). I'll cover it in more detail when back from PAX.

[@That1Football]

Nice one thanks. Only had a problem with the vertical bit at the end. Nightmare!

[@shadow.banned]

I'm telling ya... you should add your entire run at the end after the walkthrough from start to finish, even if you've got faults. It would look cool.

[@DarkElement1987]

Yeah good idea

[@UniversityOfTrials]

I agreed with you the first time you said it and I honestly am so happy to get through a video I always forget. I will make another note of it and try for the future ones. It's a good idea. keep reminding me :)

[@DarkElement1987]

I'm reminding you too right now.

[@michaelinglis8516]

You can also grab the sign or whatever(second obstacle) with your back wheel(upside down) then throttle full to throw yourself back upright then brake just as your head is coming up which will put you on top of the sign billboard thing on your back wheel at which point you let your front wheel start to fall and accelerate. I found that way easier personally.

[@roy7758]

Great tutorials!! Thanks a lot, from Norway.

[@fraxyl]

When you see how it's done and still takes 300 times to get it. :D

[@ericsbuds]

HAHAHAH the xbox thought you said "morgan stop lisoni under no"!

[@kevincori82]

Thanks for this guide, Im up to this track with platinums but hit a wall with this one lol 2 of the jumps just wreck me

[@emersonthomas7201]

I don't know why but I find the film noir version of this track much easier

[@peachy0014]

Thanks... Got to the 2nd to last obstacle.... 270 attempts... Still couldn't do it. But, that's further than before!

[@UniversityOfTrials]

I can almost guarantee that you’ll pass it on your next attempt. It’s the way our brains work that now you understand it, you’ll more easily reproduce the moves again and will be quicker also. Come back to me and let me know if that’s true. I see you doing it in 1-2 more attempts maximum.

[@peachy0014]

@@UniversityOfTrialsyou are right about the brain bit. I'd be amazed if I try again. It's just a brutal learning curve. Thanks for the endo advice. I always wondered how folk did that!

[@able_archer01]

The problem i'm having is that the bike keeps bouncing of that near vertical ledge before the green box

[@kestrelius02]

very helpful as well as handsome to boot! great vid, thanks!

[@MrRandomGhost]

Thanks prof. This helped me a lot.

[@GoldenEmbersYT]

You cant do that ramp with pit viper by leaning at the two crates cause gassing it causes it to flip

[@AngryK1tty]

Platinum? Yeah right, I’ll be fucking stoked to bronze medal this. Made it past that awful bunny hop part with 495 faults and 2 minutes left. Safe to assume I did not complete the track. Welp, trying again I suppose.

[@Mr_armageddon]

i watch these as i play on my laptop as real time guides...when you started talking to your xbox, mine started listening to you haha never listens to me when trials is on though?

[@Marc1414]

I keep getting stuck at the big gap straight to the bunny hop third from last obstacle!

[@cataclysmicdelta1828]

I have genuinely dnfed at least 3 times at the jump at 12:00, every other part is extremely easy, the first time I ever did the track I made there with 30 faults. I just can not make that jump happen, and I’ve watched this and another tutorial multiple times, nothing has found me success. What happens most often when I get close is either my bottom wheel catches a tiny bit on the box and makes me do a backflip or something stupid, or I land on my front wheel and fall back down. I’ve already completely rock of rages and eye of the storm. I would seriously appreciate any help or advice for this

[@cataclysmicdelta1828]

UniversityOfTrials yeah I can easily do the part you’re calling the hardest jump

[@cataclysmicdelta1828]

UniversityOfTrials and if by fapping you mean spamming the brake yeah I do it sometimes, honestly I find a lot of the parts where you can do endos or chain bunny hops pretty easy

[@cataclysmicdelta1828]

UniversityOfTrials since I made my comment I managed to beat the part twice but pretty much by shear luck and then I’d get stuck on the big chain bunny hop after it (i did it the first time with the rabbit and second with the pit viper)

[@pomp97]

Hi Shady, nice vids btw. Question regarding second to last obstacle 16.00. How do you manage to consistently plant your rear wheel down at top of second ramp? I can bunnyhop up to the ramp reasonably well but cant seem to get back wheel down quick enough to accelerate on.I just roll backwards on the front wheel.

[@UniversityOfTrials]

Have you tried it on the rabbit? I made this vid that may also help Light City Run on the Rabbit - Second last checkpoint. Let me know if you still need something and I'll try to assist.

[@pomp97]

UniversityOfTrials I got it in the end :) only took maybe 1000 tries! Now any chance of a detailed Frost Bite run? I did manage the track with about 200 faults but it has some really tough sections.

[@DarkElement1987]

Update: 10 faults :-) i can smell the platinum medal.

[@44warriorz44]

hey man, thank you for this guide! i've actually watched quite a few of these, seeing how i got this game a week ago. i'm no scrub when it comes to games, and actually i've found myself to be fairly good at these sort of platform games as well. but man, this game is fucking hard. it's literally draining my life haha. i've got 3 extreme tracks left to beat and thats it, then i need to gold everything. i just beat light city run, with using some tricks from this guide but i have some questions: when you are at 12:00 minutes in that obstacle with the little block there on the ramp, for the life of me that took forever. a couple hundred faults at least. i just could not time it right to get over the box. and i tried what you said, and i watched the way your bike moved/body moved and i just couldn't get it. i ended up doing it (obviously, since i beat the track) but that part gave me more trouble than the "hardest" part you said was there. and also, the warp zones. i don't understand - for the life of me i can not beat warp zone 2 & 3. however last night, i beat warp zone 4. i assume 4 would be the hardest, no? either way, i just have no clue how i can beat the 4th and not 2 & 3 :( the things i have the hardest trouble with right now are definitely steep climbing, and getting the sweet spot to where my bike wont jump everytime i land on a slope. either way, you've got a new subscriber and i just wanted to say thanks for the tutorials. it's easy to understand you while explaining, and also you give great detail as to body movement, weight shifting, etc. keep it up man, cheers :)!

[@UniversityOfTrials]

Thanks, go back through the older vids as I have each warp zone and plenty of other things for new players like you.

[@siminiceanut]

Everybody plays it on consoles but my question is can you do it on a computer/laptop without a controller using only the keyboard? Second question is : I'm on the part with the nasty, almost vertical obstacle that you encountered at around minute 8 and I keep bouncing off the wall, any tips on how to do that jump/ stop bouncing?

[@UniversityOfTrials]

Apparently it's possible on the keyboard but I am no good at it. I would strongly recommend the controller. I use a 360 controller on the PC. They are cheap now and a great controller. For your second question, make sure you know how to bunny hop, land only on your rear wheel and accelerate while leaning forward. You have to get it just right but just watch some replays and you should get it. I suspect that if you're playing with the KB that the extremes will be very hard for you.

[@siminiceanut]

UniversityOfTrials Indeed they are...I've managed to finish a few but still they are very difficult to pass on the KB

[@publius101]

I just got this on pc and i've been playing with both keyboard and a XB1 controller - I think at my skill level there's not much difference (I prefer KB, but that's just because I've never used a controller before). so far I can't beat any of the extremes, but I've gotten to the last checkpoint on the first two and to the obstacle you mentioned on this one. Gotta say I really hate this game - so infuriating, but I just can't stop playing, just try over and over and over again. It's 5am right now, what am I doing with my life? /rant

[@siminiceanut]

I know the feeling tho, I've actually managed to finish some of the extremes on silver but frankly some of them are just too hard for my current lvl of skill

[@jijonbreaker]

I use a keyboard (although I have a controller available) and have completed the game, and gotten about halfway through each of the extremes, and finished eye of the storm. So it is doable.

[@polarized4582]

9:08 you actually had it but you hit retry haha

[@maziku4749]

the extreme difficulty is really hard for me. i cant even make it over the first jump on them. ive noticed that the best players are all on xbox and have been told the xbox controller is much easier to control with.

[@UniversityOfTrials]

that's not it. guys are completing the extreme tracks with the keyboards. I personally prefer the Xbox but the extremes are about skill so keep practising.

[@maziku4749]

keyboard? that sounds awkward lol.

[@Morbidia]

thank you so help full x

[@mwfcod0932]

If anyone haven't been able to make MASTER OF ILUSION in FROST BITE .I think I have the best way to get that challenges.ok here , font go back at the beginning of the track to get your guy disappear, just keep up to the final were you get electrocuted and xplode after several seconds.ok here is the clue. Whe you get there STOP ON FRONT OF THE ELECTRIC PART AND JUMP (BAILOUT) AND YOU WILL GET STOCK THERE AND WAIT TO THE GUY XPLODE , WHEN THAT HAPPENS PRESS O for ps4 or B for xo AND YOU RESPOND WHIT YOUR RIDER DISAPPEAR .pass the final jump and let me know if you get the CHALLENGES please.i cant cuz I did it the reg way so .(SORRY FOR MY ENGLISH BUT AM TRYING) lol enjoy....

[@mwfcod0932]

Forgot to say that you need to hit the las barrel and get on the electric part .if you dont fo ot like that your guy never get stick there

[@golucki1980]

i got platinum on this level like a yr ago and i have no clue how i did it

[@UniversityOfTrials]

I look back at half my plate and say the same thing.

[@DarkElement1987]

Thanks!!! :-)

[@Gameviewsblog]

2:00 you can hold gas instead and tap brake fast and it pushes him further ('advanced technique') and the guy in the vid probably already knows this ;)

[@biiokemisten]

made it in 150 faults and 15 min lol

[@dagelijksminecraft3975]

5 seconds later ... hey guys :)

[@Delta7]

+DagelijksMinecraft speel je fusion ?

[@robloxwatch234]

too hard for me

[@lewiswoodward2837]

Stupid horrible map rubbish for bikers like me and I hope it crashes and all files are lost 😡

[@TimmyK916]

Kinect is such pure garbage.

[@FishAndKid]

I just don't use mine.

[@Motoxcross]

to be honest I like the kinect I have no problems with it randomly listening or going to things I didn't say... I guess I'm just lucky!
