So much has changed since we started Powder VR that it was time to update the main menu. The idea of spawning into an open-world snow park and having to find your way to each course has been deprecated in favor of an instant quick race option. After a lot of testing, we found out that the snow park was just too technical for beginners.
The first stages of the story mode will now focus on straight, wide-open areas and give players plenty of time to practice in large, friendly settings before requiring them to tackle more difficult terrain like black diamonds.
For those who liked the snow park, not to worry! There will still be an exploration mode like the existing infinite runs that lets you choose which areas to spawn and will let you ride without any pressure of competition.
Finally, our simulation settings have grown so large that it needed its own page just to fit everything in there!
