Anyone know if the in-game friends lists are tied to Uplay or Steam? Uplay is generally unoffensive, but it'd be pretty sucky if you can't just instantly compare times with all your Steam friends.
I've bought it in any case, because FUCK YEAH TRIALS!!!!

Please report back with your findings. My purchase hinges on being able to see my Steam friends.

Just as a heads up to everyone, it also comes with all of the single player levels from Trials HD (which was previously never on PC). So you're essentially getting both games for the price.

Yeah I've just been playing and relaised. Didn't think they'd be included considering the price lol.
Have the controls changed or something? Feels like the bike drifts backwards a lot more than it did on Xbox. Also weird how long it takes to unlock the phoenix.

I haven't made my mind up yet; if there is a difference between the PC and 360 version in terms of handling characteristics, or physics simulation, it's subtle. Certainly one would expect a slightly different experience with the HD tracks in TE:G versus playing HD on 360, as HD and Evo had slightly different handling characterics anyway, and TE:G is Evo tech.
For sure, maybe it's all just in mind head - but I've been playing a lot of Evo on 360 recently (410 medals and counting), running when through the same tracks in TE:G, things are definitely feeling slightly different in some aspects.
Thanks for the information! Got a copy for myself and a friend. Only played two tracks so far due to tiredness, but I'm definitely looking forward to playing a lot more.
Ok doesnt matter, the CD key worked when I reloaded uPlay. Unfortunately now it seems like Trials doesnt like my PC too much as its playing a bit choppy. I dont have the best PC but I thought it would handle this. Hoping it'll just be something that a patch can fix later down the line instead of hating my graphics card.

Yeah the HD tracks feel a bit weird, and I've noticed they've added somethings to make some of the tracks easier.
I didn't relaise at the when I posted, the centre of my controller is a bit fucked, so if I take my hands of the controller it drifts backwards lol.
It doesn't support sli or crossfire configurations, it runs like crap, online is broken, leaderboards are broken, video sharing is broken and it's infested with Uplay.
On the plus side, maybe they'll fix it in the next two weeks? Trials is a great game, it doesn't deserve such a botched port. Granted, it's still in "beta," but this game is supposed to be out in 16 days.
@dizzyhippos: I have had zero problems with it, aside from some bizarre framerate issues on some of the tracks. Nothing terrible, and obviously a coding issue as it goes away once you restart the track. I think the presentation is great and have no problems with the fidelity of the graphics. I played it on 360, and think it looks the same if not a bit better.
Now then.....a lot of people are still having problems with it. If you check out the RedLynx forums you'll find out that, as of now, you just have to get lucky in terms of your CPU/GPU types for it to work well. I'm running an i5 3570k and an MSI Overclocked 660 ti. I've seen people with much better rigs than mine having nothing but problems with it. So for you, it might still be bad. But it might not.
