Grip multiplayer now on Private branch!

Surprise!

Don't forget to get on Discord to play with others: https://discord.gg/RKTJcNJ

This patch has huge changelist, of which I still need to make, but I'll have it in full for the public release version

The basics:

  • MULTIPLAYER!
  • NEW Car - Cygon Tempest (tank class)
  • NEW Track - Norvos Acrophobia
  • Better drifting!
  • Better physics in general
  • Improved tracks
  • improved FX
  • Other stuff!

MULTIPLAYER NOTES:

  • Game can crash, but it's quite rare (we hope)
  • The position and kill tracking on the HUD and scoreboard is a bit messed up
  • You'll see some jitter/stutter on the cars as we're still working on sync and local vehicle smoothing
  • other than that, it's pretty good!

Please post all bugs/issues feedback either here or in the Steam discussions, or our forum!

Enjoy!

Ps. Private branch code is "SnarSn4r5n4r" ;)

EDIT:

Some discovered issues with Multiplayer in this private build:
-it likes to crash :/
-if one lobby is full, you're unable to find other lobbies
-"find next" doesnt seem to be working as intended
-Sometimes it will say you have an incorrect client version. It's lying
-You may get stuck in a network error loop. Restart the game

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The best idea is to coordinate a game with people on Discord and use JOIN GAME to manually get into a game and play. As right now finding doesn't seem to be working properly. This is why multiplayer is only on the private branch right now! :P
