The latest update is now live.
There are two main gameplay additions.
Firstly, there's an optional new 'stabilized' handling mode. This is a smoother, less wobbly mode for those that don't enjoy or just struggle with the default twitchy wobbly handling. It's still wobbly, just not so easy to tip over all the time in certain vehicles. There is a slight trade off in performance when using this method, to counter it being easier to keep the car on the road. Hopefully this should balance out nicely so that those using stabilized will be competitive, but those that master the original handling method will still be able to get the ultimate times.
You choose the handling method each time you change car, making it easy to toggle and experiment with both methods. We'll be monitoring the results in the leader board, tracking which method is used, to check things seem fair.
Secondly there is now a simple 'tutorial' element for new players. This will offer up a few prompts to new players as they drive around to help them get the most out of the game.
We've also fixed an issue in the challenge menu when using a mouse to make selections, and some minor updates to the game engine.
If you have any thoughts or experience any problems with this update, please leave a comment.
Happy Driving!
