+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted August 2, 2010 Subscriber² Share Posted August 2, 2010 This Wednesday, August 4th at 2:00am (Pacific Time), the ModNation Racers Title Update 1.02 goes live improving many of the issues the community has been concerned about. On behalf ofUFG, we want to thank everyone for supporting ModNation and being patient as we've worked hard to make it the best experience possible. If you didn't see the patch details on the IGN last Friday, here is a run down:Load Time Improvements While there are still loads, you will see decreases in load times throughout the game. New "Casual" Difficulty Mode We've added a "casual" difficulty setting in the options screen. Challenge friends in XP Series We've added the ability to invite your friends to XP Races & Series. No more "Hot Lap" Cheaters We fixed a bug that allowed players to cut the track and post unbeatable times in Hot Lap. Get into Online Races Quicker Along with improved load times, we've removed the online game room from the ModSpot so you can get into the race faster. Improved Server Stability We've addressed issues to improve intermittent disconnects that players were experiencing. Three Challenges now more attainable We wanted to provide you challenges, but didn't want to sacrifice fun. We found 3 challenges that proved extremely difficult and changed the conditions to complete them. This includes: Devastator takedown on Wild Run Devastator takedown on Modobahn Sideswipe 3 opponents on the cliff side on Fracture The Tin Bucket Unlocked! Finally this is an item is unlocked and available to everyone by default. Collector Card Improvement Now see all player creations in their entirety. Improvements to ModNation Racers don't stop here, we are still constantly listening to the community and are committed to making ModNation Racers one of the most enjoyable experiences you'll have on your PS3.

+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted August 2, 2010 Author Subscriber² Share Posted August 2, 2010 It would be sweet if a good bunch of people on NW had this for some fun from time to time. Won't be considering a purchase till it's sub ?20 though. Still going for around ?28 online (cheapest) :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MightyJordan Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 Won't be considering a purchase till it's sub ?20 though. Still going for around ?28 online (cheapest) :/ Yeah, it's bloody annoying. I'm still waiting for Heavy Rain to go sub-?20. That's one's holding its value too well. It's worse than the Guitar Hero and Rock Band games.

strotee Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 This game looks fun if I had kids or my niece/nephew were older. I just see myself getting bored with it playing it as an adult, but I'm glad they are releasing patches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I going to get a racing game it would have to be one of the more serious offering out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red. Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 Nice update. Played some 3 player split screen the other day and it's great fun to play with friends and family. Just the load times were annoying. Let's see how they've decreased them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boxster17 Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 Definitely looking forward to the patch, played through about half the career mode before putting it down as I had other games to play (friend had lent me the God of War series). Was going to start it up again but figured I'd hold off until this patch hit, so it looks like I may have to get into it again now. Hopefully the load times are a lot more bearable than previously.

Yep, pretty much the same thing on my end, just had other games to play. Especially since it is the "slow season" (next game I really am kinda sorta looking forward to play is Kane and Lynch 2 which is a few weeks away), I am gonna finally play this and try to get my money's worth from it. Thanks for posting this AB, as I would not have thought about the game otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LingeringSoul Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 The game is good fun in split-screen mode. My group has been alternating between this and Blur whenever we want our racing fix between Halo matches. Being able to download user-created maps and try them out has definitely given the game a lot of longevity with us. Without that feature, we would probably have gotten bored by now, as the actual racing itself is admittedly nothing special (in my humble opinion). Glad to see that it's getting patched. I thought that the load times were suppose to be fixed on the week of release, but hey, better late than never :). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudy Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 you cheap ******* lol. Lots of new games aren't worth the retail price they're asking...so people wait ModNation is barely worth $5 to me....worst purchase ever (PSP version, I don't have a PS3) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
