Bike Unchained 2 Wiki

Loved this game the first day I played! Moved up to Gold level and was spending way too much time playing!!! Day 2, I’m back to silver level, but no big deal. Thought I would just win more races and build up my bikes and be right back to gold level. For some reason I can’t even get to race mode anymore. It just stays in the loading mode till I give up and move on to more important things in life. I bummed cuz my chick is away and I just wanna dork out and play some games🥴

Great game with tons of potential. I played other games for so long because they made it where you could communicate and have clans. Having bike teams and challenges, making clan style challenges. And building a community on this game would take it to the next level. I also wish I knew how some people changed their profile picture to pictures of their choice, I am only giving the option of stock photos. I wish there was a discord channel too for tips and advice. A lot of questions such as bike builds and ranked events rewards like the difference between the black box with question mark and the purple, I seem to get better rewards from the black which takes less points. This is a game that could build a community and an empire like other games such as raid, hope they take advantage of this. I’m hooked either way but the potential is there for so much more.

Fun game, great graphics but very buggy. Keep hoping for an update to fix some bugs like not being able to open sponsor boxes. Also almost impossible to see what’s coming up on the track if you are in third or fourth in a close pack as the riders in front of you are solid and block your view of the trail. Update: after the latest update the sponsor boxes seem to be working but the function that lets you watch videos for sponsor boxes still does not work. Both my husband and I have the game downloaded and we keep trying to watch videos, get all the way through the video many times now, and have never once received a sponsor box, or compensation of any kind.

An overall great game, with controls that are pretty easy to figure out. There are multiple different challenge types too so you can find whichever one you like best. It takes some time to upgrade your bike parts, but it’s all part of the game. My only complaint is that there are times were you’ll place 3 times at 2nd or 3 times at 3rd and somehow you’ll still get ranked one step lower (ie if you got 2nd place three times you’d get 3rd place overall). That makes no sense and is genuinely frustrating for your players. Other than that it runs well, it doesn’t slow my phone down, and it’s fun!!

I love everything that RedBull does for mountain biking but apparently they should stay out of computer games. This game looks great (I’ll give you a star for that) but the actual gameplay is extremely limited and repetitive. The only control you have is to hold the screen on downhills and tap it on the uphills. That’s it! Any tricks are done for you. There’s no steering, no braking, no gears, no anything else. In fact, the aim of the game seems to be not to ride your bike but to upgrade it by constantly collecting new parts and this seems to be the only way to improve your ability to win races as well. It’s really frustrating when you’re holding your finger down to go as fast as possible on a downhill and still watching other players (actually bots) simply going faster. It’s fairly easy to collect new parts, at least early on when you can win a few races, but as you progress you find yourself finishing 3rd or last over and over and get few rewards. Also they don’t bombard you with ads (hence 3 stars) but it does seem to be an endless process of tiny incremental improvements and there’s no way I can maintain interest when the gameplay is so limited.

Early on it’s great: You win, you upgrade, you advance. Once you hit the Grand Master league, the point and part gap between you and the others in that league is so great you have literally zero chance of placing above third, and you’re generally going to be dead last. Moreover, it’s the only racing game where you can place third each round and somehow place fourth overall. You’ll reach grand masters, lose a bunch of points trying to compete, then get bumped back down to masters where you’re likely going to come in the top 5 without really even trying (it’s based on overall career point accumulation, not in any way related to race performance in the current iteration). Repeat for a few decades and you might get enough to buy parts which allow you to compete in GM. There needs to be another league level (or several), otherwise I’m basically earning better rewards by NOT playing so that I don’t risk coming in anything but first as it causes a loss of points. Kind of a joke, but it’s a mobile game, so that’s typically the paradigm.

For the most part this is a good game, it just needs some tweaking. The cost of upgrading parts, etc gets to be extremely unbalanced when compared to the rate at which you earn gold, even if you pay for the season pass. The largest disappointment to me though is the lack of fresh content. A daily event that you can play for free 3 times, after that you have to use tickets (which cost money), then a couple events that last for days, but you still only get 3 chances to play them without using tickets. There is only one racing series you can enter as many times as you want, and that gets repetitive. All that being said, I do enjoy the game. It just needs more diverse content that is refreshed more often than once or twice a week. The season pass should at least give you unlimited race tickets since you have to spend real money for it, and still have to earn the rewards through racing, which cost tickets, which cost more money... The wait timer to open earned rewards is also excessive.

This game is fun, I had to set a screen timer just for it cause I’ll play it all day. Enough tracks to keep it pretty diverse, and each track will benefit from different bike setups so makes you pick parts carefully, and when you clear a line it feels great. There are also other game modes like slope style and weekly challenges to keep you busy. My biggest issue is the ranking system. I’ve been stuck between diamond and master for awhile, I can place top 3 final in diamond with no issues and win all races, as soon as I get to master I’m dead last, like setting PRs on runs but still 1-3 seconds behind the pack, which makes no sense at all. All I can think is that they are probably trying to get you to buy upgrade packs 👎🏼 can’t say fer sure that’s the case, but it’s a common strategy in a lot of other mobile games to put you up against stacked players to entice you to buy packs to keep up. Either way that’s 2 stars off from me, because when I get to Master I am not incentivized to race cause I get nothing, then once I downgrade back to diamond i can actually compete.

I play this game everyday , and I can say with confidence that this is genuinely one of the most impossible games I’ve ever played. It’s very fun to start out with , but once you progress in the game it gets very hard. If you don’t plan on spending lots of money on this game , good luck , because this is the most pay to win game I’ve ever played. There’s almost 0 game modes , ranked being one of the only free game modes you can play. Later on in the game bike parts and the biker cards are very hard and expensive to get unless you rank very high in every event. Winning 1st place in event is a diffrent story. I swear to god the AI’s in this game are the GOAT of mountain biking and literally impossible to beat. I should not be loosing to a 540 bike while I’m 1100

The ranking system in this game is quite literally rigged. If you move up to the next league you are immediately pitted against people with faster bikes, better parts and who are at a higher level in general. And if you move down you are against people who are just too easy to beat and then you move back up and the process starts all over again. This is fun for a while until you get to silver or gold league, but after that, I’d say it’s pay-to-win. You’d have to buy all the coins in order to pay for good bikes. So if you’re looking for a little bike game to enjoy yourself for a while, get this (that’s the only reason this isn’t one star) but once you get to the point where you can only get third place, stop playing. By the way, if you haven’t noticed, all of the other players are just ghosts. Just a little tip, in case you thought anyone actually played the game with you. And one more thing, the season pass stuff for is garbage, don’t waste your money on this, it’s a huge sham.

This game is a lot of fun when you first start out. You don’t have to worry about the small mechanics in the game. Every setup you create is fast and you can win by doing just about anything. Then you start getting up in to the higher leagues and you start to realize that even though you’re actually going faster than you’ve gone on some of the tracks, you’re constantly getting beat. This starts a loop where you can’t earn any rewards to get upgrades to beat other, and you’re stuck. Your only option when you’re stuck is to pay up and get the upgrades, which is not a fun feeling. Also, when you start to have to worry about the smaller mechanics, like knowing when to tap or hold when going over rollers or rocks, it gets extremely confusing. I found myself staring at my rear tire to see whether tapping or holding was the correct thing in certain spots, and when it’s not correct you immediately drop to 4th and can’t catch up.

This game was very fun to begin with. The simple controls make it an easy game to pass the time a little bit. However, in the last couple weeks the game has been slowing me down so that I literally cannot win. I upgrade my bike and I not only run the exact same tracks over two seconds slower than I have from a LOWER LEVEL bike, but I lose by more than three seconds sometimes to people who are over 250 points below me. What is the point of upgrading a bike if the game literally won’t let me win? For how much fun this game was at the start, it’s disappointing to see how much the developers clearly give preference to people who pay real money to play the game versus those of us who play for fun but still want to succeed in it. Although, it is a mobile game and it’s difficult to make a mobile game based purely on skill, but still. It’s a bit disappointing how it has turned out

This game takes up 1.55 GB of space. I have no idea how this is even possible. On any given day you can race about 5 different “courses” with about 2 different backgrounds, and these are in rotation every few days or so. It is very easy to get “burnt out” playing the same few tracks all day. This also makes it a pain to progress. Progression in the game is painfully slow. The concept is great - Real riders, real bikes and parts, etc... but the game itself is slow, progression is slow, and I have no idea why the devs can’t keep a simple game like this (which of course requires a constant internet connection) under 1GB. I’ve seen much higher quality and more complex games that fall right around the 1.3 GB mark. I downloaded this game when it first came out and held on to it thinking “maybe it’ll get better....” But it’s just the same game with a different few tracks once in a while.

This game truly becomes trash after a couple times playing. All race results are solely based off of bike upgrades - the “real time” opponents are just CPU’s with much better bikes. The ranking / point system is skewed and varies drastically day by day - one day your ranking class will be too easy then the next day it becomes impossible to place higher than 3rd (all due to opponents’ bikes being upgraded). All race modes are essentially the same and repetitive and will require a purchase 90% of the time. Terrible lack of explanations throughout the gameplay (slope style point system unclear and inconsistent, and never explained). The UX & UI is average at best, ton of boxes and buttons with little to no function. App becomes incredibly limited once you realize you can’t progress any further and / or don’t want to spend money.
