Hahha good catch. We will get that fixed. Thanks for pointing it out. NOEN Well-Known Member Jul 31, 2012 3,245 0 0 U.S. #4 NOEN, Dec 11, 2014 Downloaded this this morning. I only played a little bit of it so far, but from what I played, it was pretty cool. Love the borderlands look! I did have some trouble steering. I don't know if it was just me though. I'll give it a try again in a few. RoboWarrior Well-Known Member Oct 3, 2012 658 0 16 #5 RoboWarrior, Dec 11, 2014 Sadly can't play the game since it crashes while loading the map. GPS Well-Known Member Dec 13, 2009 2,283 165 63 Australia #6 GPS, Dec 11, 2014 It's not just you, I found the steering off as well, tilt doesn't turn enough, and touch wasn't much better, it keeps losing my touch too and I end up just going straight. I love the look of the gameplay, but outside of that I actually couldn't work out what I was supposed to be doing. I just drove around, didn't see another vehicle and shot nothing.. I think I missed something? The vehicle physic were good though.

NOEN Well-Known Member Jul 31, 2012 3,245 0 0 U.S. #8 NOEN, Dec 12, 2014 Same here man! I didn't see anybody! Just drove around. I had it set to all bots also. That's what is was though, it was like it was losing the touch signal or something. Hopefully it gets fixed because it IS a cool looking game! hellscaretaker Well-Known Member May 27, 2012 1,098 6 38 Im a youtube gamer/streamer https://www.youtube.com/user/touchgameplay #9 hellscaretaker, Dec 12, 2014 I agree with the others the steering is a problem it just not responds to turning left on the vitual wheel and tilt control seems to suffer the same problem. The sound will get on people's nervous, the constant revving sound everytime you touch the pedal even when the truck is already moving at speed. Plus it seems the truck sound is always just ticking over even when you manage to get it to drive. Granted it does look nice but until the steering and sound let it down. NOEN Well-Known Member Jul 31, 2012 3,245 0 0 U.S. #10 NOEN, Dec 12, 2014 Just played this a little more. I turned the sensitivity way up on the steering and that seemed to help some. I was finally able to drive around and shoot some people. I tried the multiplayer, but nobody was playing. This game has big potential if the controls get fixed and maybe more of a single player mode.

The sensitivity in the Game really should ge tweaked. At some point I did turned it to around 75% and I still have some issues with the Controls.

Some of the Loading Times in the Game seem to be very strange where the Game seem to be crashed also it does continue to load the map. There was some textures that slipped through that were more than the idea size. They have been adjusted and will hopefully quicken up some of the loading times.

Some of those 30. Seconds Ads seem to be far to long for a Game where some rounds take less then a minute or a minute and a half if and when the A.I doesn`t get stucked somewhere on the Map. We do not have control over how long the ads are but I do think we can look into how frequent they are playing. I will talk to the others on the team and see what we can do about that. The AI definetely has some quirks. We are actively looking at making them a bit more intelligent to avoid the occurrences you have pointed out. -- I am also going to be adding a third control set that offers players arrows for left and right turning. I have also added a option to turn off the gas and brake pedal sounds (They are there to be a response to hitting the button. During our testing we found that there were times that having some sort of verification that a button was pressed was better than having no sound) I also made some of the options menu more clear as to what the control schemes are for.

Warm Gunner Well-Known Member Oct 10, 2011 55 0 0 Game Designer #15 Warm Gunner, Dec 14, 2014 We will have an update for the controls and some of the loading issues into Apple soon. Hopefully we can have it updated before Christmas. Sanuku Well-Known Member Jun 14, 2009 11,954 4 38 Austria http://www.touchgameplay.com #16 Sanuku, Dec 14, 2014 Sorry I meant that I shouldn`t be able to get there overall. You probably should load up the Level Editor and put some invisible Wall so someone can`t get as far as I had managed to get. Besides that the Game is solid but those couple of issues really make it kinda look worse then it actually might look like at the current moment. I somehow believe that instead of an worldwide Launch an Soft-Launch might have helped more to fix everything before the Game was released out into the wild. Warm Gunner Well-Known Member Oct 10, 2011 55 0 0 Game Designer #17 Warm Gunner, Dec 14, 2014 Thanks Sanuku for playing the game and for posting that video... we really appreciate it. It's brought a lot of things to our attention and we're working on getting it updated and into apple for review again. Vawx Member Sep 10, 2011 6 0 0 #18 Vawx, Dec 15, 2014 Last edited: Dec 17, 2014 We have cleared review and are now live with update 1.0.4. The patch notes are as follows: Version: 1.0.4 – Maximum Overdrive Patch Notes Steering sensitivity now starts at double the max of what it was. It will also scale between 0 and 5 times the normal input. This will hopefully allow devices to be more finely tuned and give a more reliable driving experience. All maps have been revisited and through a combination of removing and replacing assets, load times are significantly better. All maps are now under 200MB, meaning more devices should be able to load and run the game much more smooth than before. “Overdrive” has had a revamp. The map is now smaller but keeps the same feel as the older version. This is aimed to give you more action and less driving around unattested. Lighting has been redone and is now more unified and complete. Collision has been revisited on all maps and was remade to fit the levels with much more detail than what we had been using before. The Bot logic is now using its way point system to the fullest. This will result in less times that a Bot will get stuck in a corner or is caught in a loop, doing donuts. Bots do still suffer from not being able to reverse, meaning they will sometimes drive up walls to “turn around”. Filling a single player with Bots is now three Bots, instead of two. Added an Arrow control scheme to the Options menu. This will give you a more familiar approach to controlling the vehicles. Added options to turn on and off the Gas and Brake sound effect while drivng. Gas and Brake sound effects only play when the car has started to move from a stop (gas) and when the car is moving at a “decent” speed (brake), plus a delay before it can play again. NAT punch through is now working. This means that those of you with more secure networks can now host and join multi-player games with less complication. Warm Gunner Well-Known Member Oct 10, 2011 55 0 0 Game Designer #19 Warm Gunner, Dec 17, 2014 The new update has been released!

Regarding the sound, it maybe better once the steering has been fixed as i was "gunning it" so that it would turn either left or right
