BIG ASS UPDATE PATCH NOTES
MULTIPLAYER
- Voting has been tightened up and acts similar to the PC version. All players can vote. The game will take into account all votes and create a config.
- A timer has been added to the online lobby that automatically starts the game if players are dormant.
- Spectators leaving MP games are no longer reported in the HUD feed.
- Split-screen tournaments now work beyond the first event.
- Split-screen results for players are now always displayed correctly.
- Bug fix that allows 2nd, 3rd and 4th split-screen players to access and customize their vehicles within the garage.
- Difficulty level and engine power now can’t be voted upon in MP games.
- Bug fix for allocating the correct vehicles to players in split-screen.
- Bug fix to disable players from joining tournaments once they have started, regardless of whether they know the private game name or not.
- Maximum game time and maximum kill count now averaged in votes for MP games.
- Fixed bug where not all players would have a player controller created for them inside a garage after exiting a race in split-screen mode.
- Bug fix for MP game auto-start sometimes not kicking in.
- Event progress now visible in the spectator lobby
- Bug fix for MP game auto-start not aborting on the client when appropriate.
- Improvements to the game options UI presentation, ordering them by whether they’re enabled or not which is very useful when voting in MP
- Bug fix for the rendering of “Press X To Join” on split-screen join panel – so that it will fit vertically rather than horizontally which helps localisation.
- Bug fix for selecting the correct pickup table when there are fewer than 3 players left in an event.
AI
- Bug fix for AI bot catch-up in MP games. A big one for the community. Originally, we envisioned how it was set up as something combat racers would want, to keep the fighting close but players found it too aggressive and leads could be wiped out through no ill move by the player. So catch-up assistance is now less aggressive and, importantly, off by default when playing Campaign.
- AI bots now often avoid static obstacles more smoothly than before and AI bots now drive more competitively, but not unfairly, when catch-up assistance is turned off to make sure we keep the race aggressive and entertaining.
- Bots now adjust cornering speeds dynamically depending on how much grip they have.
- Bot vehicles of the same maximum speed range are now matched against humans where possible.
VEHICLES
- Hit points for all vehicles are now 100 in arena and 150 in race modes, this reduces the chance of 100% damage during a race but increasing it during deathmatches.
- Vehicle audio improvements have been made, increasing the volume of some sounds that were too quiet and improving sounds which acted incorrectly.
- Bug fix for vehicle physics movement and velocity prediction calculations. Reducing the chance of vehicles losing control unexpectedly and making it easier to control them in air and on the ground.
- Fixed bug in the garage where the vehicle name, logo and stats wouldn’t update when loading a saved preset.
- Bug fix for vehicle catch-up state change being so slow, causing ‘Rubber-Banding’ to appear unfair and unpredictable.
- Bug fix for no more rumble on controllers for destroyed vehicles.
- Bug fix for unwanted decals now removed from vehicles a player has selected which subsequently became unavailable.
ACHIEVEMENTS
- Changed the number of laps and kills required for the associated achievements:
“GRIP Rookie”
(Old value > 100, New value > 50)
“GRIP Addict”
(Old valve > 2500, New value > 250)
“GRIP Master”
(Old valve > 10000, New value > 1000)
“Vehicular Genocide”
(Old valve > 500, New value > 100)
“There are no cars left to kill, so chill”
(Old valve > 1500, New value > 250)
- Various bug fixes ensuring all achievements are now attainable.
- Bug fixes for the “I did it my way” achievement, preventing the achievement from unlocking when it shouldn’t.
- Bug fix for illegitimately attaining achievements when spectating a MP game.
- Bug fix for “Stunt Double” achievement being more accurately achieved, this increases the chance of unlocking the achievement if the user correctly completes the action required.
