As such, a backflip would be trigger plus right stick down, while in Trickster it would be right stick up then right stick down. However, it moves jumping from the right analogue stick to the triggers or bumpers, while spins and flips stay on the stick. Like Trickster, Steep prioritizes granular control over spins and flips, giving you the power to rack up huge points totals. The Steep preset is meant for veterans of Steep. You're at the mercy of the in-game camera, which thankfully has been solid so far in our time with the game. The tradeoff is that camera control is inactive with Trickster. In addition, you can easily pull off grabs since your fingers are on the sticks already just add a left or right trigger and push the left stick in a direction to do a grab. Flips and spins just need a flick of the stick, while flip-spin combos like rodeos require a simple quarter-circle on the analogue stick. Trickster gives full board, bike, or ski control over to the right analogue stick, meaning that wild stunts are now within reach. Racer mode also lets you capture some sweet angles of the action. In exchange, you have less control over your stunts, and pulling off complicated combination tricks is much more difficult. In practice, Racer grants you much more camera control, which is an advantage when in a high-pressure race situation where looking around upcoming corners or seeing where other racers are can come in handy. This scheme gives you full camera control on the right analogue stick, while spins and flips are moved to the face buttons. If you're a total newcomer to Ubisoft Annecy's games, extreme sports games in general, or are just more interested in going fast without bothering with all the fancy spins, Racer is for you. What that screen doesn't tell you is that there's actually a third option, Steep, which is built specifically for fans of Ubisoft Annecy's previous game. As the names suggest, the former emphasizes ease of use while in race events that deprioritize stunts, while the latter gives you more granular control over spins in order to rack up big points. One of the first screens you're presented with when starting up Riders Republic for the first time gives an option to choose between two preset control schemes: Racer and Trickster, which apply identically to skis, boards, and bikes. With that in mind, we've put together some tips and explanations for what all of the different control options do so that you can be better prepared for getting your start in Riders Republic. Now Playing: Riders Republic - Official Launch Trailer "I keep seeing the Olympics on TV and to be honest I just want to forget all about it," he says, sadly.By clicking 'enter', you agree to GameSpot's At the last rehearsal, we were all together and it looked pretty amazing. "Oh my days, it would have been a phenomenal show. Boyle had apparently come up with some exciting ideas. Now, says Maher, the riders are so disappointed that none of them are going to see the event – despite being given tickets for the dress rehearsal.Īnother rider, who does not want to give his name because of the non-disclosure agreement all participants were given, says he kept the news that he was in the ceremony secret from everyone except his mum, who was "crazy proud" he would be representing the UK in the extravaganza. Maher says that at rehearsals there were around 50 BMX riders rehearsing half-pipe and quarter-pipe jumps, alongside his team of four trial riders, who had yet to be given a final routine. But instead, the whole segment has been dropped so the show can conclude in time for the audience to get home on public transport. "It took a couple of days to sink in." The trial riders had completed more than 20 hours of rehearsals for the ceremony directed by Danny Boyle. "I was really exicted when I got the email," says the 25-year-old. Joe Maher, a cyclist who rides in mountain bike trials (where cyclists pass through obstacle courses without their feet touching the ground), says he would have been joining 100 volunteers on bikes and stunt BMX riders – some, according to reports, complete with flaming bikes – to perform in front of the huge crowd. It is not just gripes about the missiles on roof tops, bans on chips and eye-popping team uniforms testing their good humour, it is that the cyclists had been within a whisker of performing in the opening ceremony – expected to be watched by one billion people – only to have their slot cancelled with less than two weeks to go. Fed up with hearing about the Olympics? Spare a thought for the stunt riders who this week are trying to ignore the fact that the biggest sporting event in the world has arrived on their doorstep.
