SSX In-Game Badges
February 3, in the year of our Lord 2012 -- SSX
has a system of in-game challenges and by completing them, you
will earn Badges. Badges you’ve earned are tracked by RiderNet,
which acts as your guide within SSX. Here’s a quick rundown of
how the system works –
· Badges you can earn are split into eight categories with
challenges divided between: SSX’s three main game modes – World
Tour, Explore and Global Events; the three pillars of gameplay –
Race It, Trick It, Survive It; plus a Gear, and an Air & Trick
category.
· Challenges in SSX have three levels of difficulty associated
with them and completing a challenge at each level, will earn
you Bronze, Silver or Gold Badges. An example of a Badge in the
Explore category is ‘Are We Still Friends’ – Beat 25 Friends’
Records. In total, there are 177 Badges in the Game.
· Earning all levels of specific Badges will award the player
Xbox Achievements or PlayStation Trophies, depending on what
console you’re playing SSX on. One example is ‘The Gold Finish’
– Collect all Gold Race Badges.
In addition to Badges, SSX also uses a Drop Bonus System in
Explore and World Tour. An example of a Drop Bonus is ‘Combo
Chain’ – perform a 70 trick combo. Drop Bonuses can be achieved
over and over again and are awarded at the end of each run. If
completed, players are rewarded with SSX Credits calculated by
tallying the top three most valuable Drop Bonuses achieved per
run. The first time a player achieves a Drop Bonus, they will
earn a Badge.
