This sounds great! I personally like the ease of using gamecenter for finding / inviting friends to multiplayer. But cross platform would be quite the achievement as well!
Loving this First off, I'd like to thank the developer for this diamond in the rough. Championship reminds me of DIRT and the cross mode reminds me of gran tirismo 5. A few suggestions if possible. 1. Manual tranny. ***please with a cherry on top*** (Sliding the gas down could be for up-shifting and sliding up for down-shifting) 2. Vibration when off-track while using tilt controls. 3. Cockpit view. But not like gameloft's GT racing. An inside view with good visibility and not too obtrusive.
Steering wheel would be so great. Buttons are too "binary" and tilting my iPad has always felt silly. For all its flaws, this is one area where the Real Racing series has gotten it right.
Pikes Peak Hi, I've played Pikes Peak 3 times (once with the first version, twice with the updated version) and the 3 times I encountered a strange graphical bug. At some point, I see vertical lines in the sky and some trees are looking strange (1st pic). Then the sky sudently becomes completely black and stays black until the finish line. Screenshot 2 : just before the sky gets dark Screenshot 3 : just after Those 2 are in game so you can check the where the bug occurs, about 13,5 km from the finish line (i am french so i use the metric units). The gameplay is not affected. My device is an iPad mini 2, all graphics options set to disabled or to the min level. I play in bonnet cam only, tilt controls. I hope that you will have enough info in order to track the issue. Again, fantastic game, I think I will be playing it for long, looking forward to the future updates ! EDIT : screenshots added
Blimey you do play on low graphics! I'll have to look into this, my guess is that the precision goes out because the tracks is so big and this is on low precision shaders. I don't do anything to normalise it for the sky! (The rest of the world is all split up into local pieces).
What is interesting is the top of the trees appear cut off too, based on the tiles of the renderer...
WOW. Can't. Await. It. Folks try local multiplayer in any game that supports it. It's the PURE fun! Much much more more social than all that online stuff. I know you need at least two iOS devices but I'm sure there is a buddy round the corner who has one. Until Rush Rally 2 gets it I recommend Asphalt (any version since A6). Thx in advance for local multiplayer in this already gorgeous racing game!!!
Hi BM, if I had to pick something that isn't on the list for the update it would be the co driver voice, making it clearer, so it's easier to understand. It's probably the biggest thing I notice going between Dirt Rally and this, is the quality of the voice without the distortion. The voice still works as it is, but I do find some of the calls hard to understand, cheers
I'll stick it on the list, I do have another way of running the main game loop which really helps, however I was getting issues on AppleTV. Next week I'm having a well deserved holiday so all will be quiet
1. is also on the list, i'm trying to work outt he best way of doing it, your idea has been suggested before. 2. Not a bad idea either actually, first to mention it!
If you play the game and then an alarm rings (iPhone-timer), and you go back to the game, there is no more sound.
Please add option to move contols nearer. On ipad they are too far apart. i.e steer left/right has too much of a gap. Being closer will allow more contol.
in terms of when buttons actually register, the left and right are exactly next to each other, there is no gap between them which will not make the car steer. You can scale them in the options, which will reduce it a little, and move them up to make it easier to touch them. Is there something else that could be done here?
I'm planning an update for end of June, there will be a new car at minimum, I haven't decided what it is yet, but either a Golf OR scirroco "style" car may be in the works, you'll find out more when i'm back from my holiday. If also looks like replays will come with this update too. Damage (as in visually seeing parts fly off) will probably be the update after that, I've had ALOT of requests for replays and TBH it is something i feel is really missing (you will also be able to watch a downloaded ghost drive as a proper car too!)
The game is going extremely well lots of people buying it! The only problem is that it is now dropping in the charts and of course getting less exposure because it is no longer featured, I need to get more recognition for this game somehow so need to spend some time working out a plan (there is only so much I can do in my spare time still!). I'm getting LOTS of positivity about it, some people have even mentioned that this is now their #1 mobile racer which is great, and that at only 60Mb download, it will be permanently on their device!! I'm hoping that TA will have a review for it soon, and also release news about the update when it is ready to at least keep it on the radar! My friends at Apple also want to know news of the update too for potential placement in the updated games homepage slot so that's all good news! Time to get to work on the update!!
I'd have to put the UR Audi Quattro on my wish list of included cars, Citroen C4, Ford Escort RS200... Too many to pick from! Cheers
I've been looking into the quatrro, but I can't find a good enough model for a decent price at the moment! They are either too high polygon or too little!
