Hey Riders,
First, thank you all for your feedback! We are more than happy to see that you all enjoy the new multiplayer mode! We spent a lot of time on it over the last 4 years, so it’s great that we can finally play together with all of you!
But, who would have guessed, it turns out that making multiplayer games is hard and comes with its own set of problems. One of them is that we just can’t update the game without throwing everyone out of the multiplayer - as a new patch forces you to update the game.
As many people are playing now and we don’t have feedback for a new available update in the game we decided to postpone today’s patch to tomorrow.
So the patch will go live tomorrow around noon (MEST) and it will throw you out of the multiplayer if you’re playing at that moment. You can continue playing after you download the update.
Tomorrow's patch will include:
- We implemented a new end-timer. So in case a player won’t finish the race or will take too long while everyone else has already crossed the finish line a timer will set in and end the race if the person doesn’t finish in time.
- We shortened all waiting times (time until a tour starts, time between trails, time between tours).
- Leaderboard Navigation will work with mouse controls again.
- We fixed that sometimes network messages (like new host, host disconnected, etc) would stay on the screen until you restarted the game.
- We improved the rubberbanding / weird movements that sometimes happen when you respawn at a checkpoint in multiplayer.
- We fixed that sometimes the timer that shows you when the next tour is going to start wasn’t visible.
- We made the last jump on Trail 2 Hard Slope a little bit easier.
We also want to take this moment and thank everyone who helped us test the demo before the Next Fest. And especially want to celebrate the crazy speedruns that people did with the over-the-top Lynx version. So here are the Top 10 on both slopes for the Pre-Demo. There will also be a little in-game memorial for them but more on that when the game will be released.
We wish you all a lot of fun on the Lonely Mountains! Please keep your feedback coming. It’s highly appreciated.
All the best,
Your Megagons
