Whatsup Bro's and Girls,
I hope you enjoying the Arizona Derby holidays and congrats for posted tons of results over 30's leaderboards in the game.
Arizona Derby steadily expanding all over the globe, just in recent past days, there have been thousands of new racers in the game, so thank you guys.
I see competition at all 30 tracks, people posting results all around the world and battle for the first place is actually in the milliseconds, for example in one track of Forest Ride level, things are getting so hot, that just 296ms decides who's the current big boss of that level:
So it's amazing to see such huge numbers of you guys having fun in the game, which was my initial idea when I started all hard work 5 years ago. It looked so distanced back at that time.
Also, bear in mind that AD is in its childhood, so please do not expect from it impossible, like it's made by a team of 50+ people with 100s millions dollars budgets, all is a one-man show.
And to get back on the update, newly updated things in the game bringing you:
1) 3rd SOUNDTRACK EXPANSION: 49 brand new atmospheric songs licensed for Arizona Derby, with variety of genres and all packed for crazy racings, tracks are:
Songs are very, very good and giving game some extra hype; altogether there are 127 licensed songs for the game, including 12 hip hop beats custom made just for the Arizona Derby by TxMic initially, so hope all tastes will be met. In the future, I may make custom radio stations, will see (some of them can be unlocked over game progress). You can always set your desired audio levels into audio options in the game or in the menu.
2) Fixed some material issue in 'Celestial' Car, which made it take full glassy material over chassis instead of the dirt;
3) Some fixes followed up my friend MayheM7 update (hope you'll change review to positive after this, lol), first is that Camera in the first-person perspective is as in other car racing games, not dynamic like it was since it's harder to command. Now the first-person mode is much easier to handle and race around; Anyways, it's an offroad drive, guys, so you should watch every moment and car about car positions. You can immerse fully and feel the Arizona Derby off-roads from the most immersive perspective now, and you can see how it's much more realistic and complex AD offroads then any other fancy racing games, this is real actions dudes, which require real skills, not some fancy action flatten offroad gameplay you use to play, it's Arizona Derby time:
4) Commentary voice level is now set to zero by default, which means no more commentary voices (as per feedbacks of some players, including MayheM7) as for them they too much and annoying, fully agree and sorry guys for I didn't take it before out. For the rest of you, who loves commentary voices, there should be still in options possibility to set its level.
5) Also, some feedback from the players is that Current Chosen Car Camera to be stored, and I just implemented a saving system of the camera position, so now when you get back to the game, you will get your camera, anyways check how complex AD camera system is:
There is 12 dynamic camera's for all positions, some of them are sticked to the Spring Arm to provide more immersive cinematic effects, some of them are offspring now, like in 3rd fixed point from above.
6) Shiny lights is fixed:
so it looks more realistic (more such things to be tuned future on):
7) LEADERBOARD OVERVIEW SYSTEM is integrated into AD Spaces - now you can check any of 31 leaderboards from AD Spaces and stay tuned who's the current big boss of the level and try to overtake them (Martens78 and Flashbac85 are one of the top riders (and first AD drivers) but there are also tons of really good results pumped all over the tracks, congratulating you guys!):
8) Medal button is introduced in AD Spaces, so you can see medals that you won, beating the bosses of the levels:
Also thank you all guys, for such a large number of supportive and positive feedbacks, which is a leading force to make this game better.
Stay offroads!
Your buddy M1ke
