We kinda went through a lot of this in last week's post so we'll just get straight to the point:
- Chapter 10 Wasteland added to Adventure mode. Let's just get that out of the way right up front. Battle in the Wastelands, win Clutch and the Interloper armored car, there's sandworms, it's great.
- Massive "Quick Event" update. You can now quick your way into Races, Time Trials, Drift Attack, Firework Fury, Last Car Standing.... all the game modes can now be quick-played. AND you can create different custom Presets for each of those game modes, and save them. And we also shipped with a few pre-made Presets to spark your imagination.
- We also added Permanent Effects to the Preset options.... These are special effects you can apply to the whole race. Like giving everybody in the race Police Chase for the entire race. Or Bouncy Tires. It's a little crazy. Please let us know what you think.
- Totally revamped Championships. These should be more or less the final Championship track selections (although there's still more features coming here like trophies and stuff). And of course you can play your presets with the Championships too.
- Handicapping is now a thing. Because sometimes you want to play with your Grandma....and you can't beat her because she's too good. So now you can pick individual handicaps for the better players in your house so the competition stays close and fierce.
- You can also choose Autothrottle if you want for Player Options on the config screen.
- Time of Day selection in Quick Events. That's something folks have been asking for.
- New Tracks in Quick Events: Glacier Gulch, Death Bat Alley and Fire & Ice are all now available. That's about it for tracks, unless we get a crazy itch in our pants and decide to make another one (but our pants are SUPER not itchy right now.)
- New Vehicle available to unlock: Old Timer
- New Gold Vehicles: Spookster, Sand Blaster, Interloper, Sandrail, Holeshot
- New alt character skins: B'Zorp and Clutch.
- Various improvements/bug fixes like Collection screen is integrated throughout the main UI screens, and your choice on skin selection persists on the config screens.
Phew. I think there's probably some other super amazing stuff but I can't remember it right now so let's just say that's enough for a 4.0 and call it a day!
