Pretty sure Rushy confirmed they were coming for the "next update". Which I imagine would be this coming one.

When are we due for it, viveks?

Don't tease us. :).

Oh Lawd!! pls tell me this means it's coming

Did you guys miss this?

Not too far, the serpent king will fall
Then we will march
To relive our conquests
And share it with all

Having said that, expect an update next week.

Bugger :-(

So in this update we're getting...

a new track (Japanese street circuit)
support for the upcoming DLC (6 cars / 2 tours to be unlocked next week)
Level cap increase?
Challenge setting improvements?
Multiplayer lobby improvements?

Come on Viv! Anything you can riddle about?
 
Noooo I am 48 finally just 2 levels from 50! I want to feel that sense of achievement for just a small amount of time until they crank it up. lol

I've been a 50 since 11.11.14 according to my trophy list so just over three months - if they do ever increase the limit its going to need to be a big one or it'll be maxed out again without me doing anything.

Relive our conquests makes me think a Prestige type mode, the kind we've all been recommending over the months.
That relive our conquests has me boggled. What if we can actually watch replays for all our (best) races, time trails and drift trails so far?

There will be some community feedback based tweaks to features for sure. But your guess is as good as mine :)

And no, that's not a riddle. lol

It is in the reveal if you re-watch it, so was Photo Mode.

The menus at the reveal, will assume they were just mock ups, show that you will likely be able to share replays too. Though they were probably early in on things back then and things change.

Leaderboards were posted but had issues :-(

If a stage wasn't completed (or I haven't got the time) then the time for that stage is 5 mins. That explains the later tables where the some of the early front runners have dropped to the back.

At the moment the plan for no.2 is Saturday 21st at 10pm GMT. It is going to be another test run, we'll try circuits as well as p2p and try the new way of working it. Limited to 20 entries so please only say you'll take part if you can defo make it on that date & time.

Kobago looks absolutely beautiful from what we can see so far, way to go out with a bang with the final track (hopefully only for the time being). More factory paint jobs is very appreciated, another multiplayer mode and some good fixes, looks like another great update. Looking forward to the the new cars and tour packs.
 
I'm looking forward to getting back after a self imposed break, work meant I was to tired when I got home and this game needs to played when you're fully awake!
 
SPEAK.

I was just putting a suggestion out there :p

I'm a bit like that other guy on this forum, Wax is it, always bleats on about track creators. I wish more games had them.

I think DC's model works perfectly for it too, because all tracks are free meaning that user created tracks isn't damaging to their financial returns.

ModNation Racer's track designer is awesome, really accessible but still flexible, port that over and lets make some bonkers tracks :p

Looks to be a great update!! Thanks for keeping us posted Paul :).

just one question : Why is Nakasendo almost never in the multi event lists?

Whoa great update Rushy! Amazing cars and that track looks great.

What do you mean with the factory Paint jobs? Are they extra colors from real life manufacturers, to chose besides the standard colors already in the game?

I don't like how they're "cheating" with yet another Corvette, but I can't wait to get my hands on other new cars, especially on that beautiful Jag F-Type.

I wish they would stop doing this, did the same thing with a lot of Mercedes too.

You can press the square button on livery select to quickly cycle through the standard manufacturer colours for each car (up to 12 unique colours per car).
