Hello everyone!

Ramone Russell here, Community Manager for ModNation Racers and avid kart racer.

One of my Mods I call 5-0

Everyone at United Front Games and SCEA are extremely exited to finally put the game in your hands. I’m here to give everyone a quick peek into some of the features and content available in the ModNation Racers PS3 public beta.

In short we are giving you the ability to race, share, download, remix, rate, and most importantly create. Everyone with a beta code will have our state of the art creation tools at your finger tips. We’re absolutely stoked to see the Tracks, Mods, and Karts the beta community will create.

The public beta will include three tracks from the full game Farm Frenzy, Market Run and Sandstorm. There are a couple of race options included in the beta as well. In addition to playing online with up to 12 players, you can compete for the best lap times in Time Trial.

ModNation Racers Beta -Farm Frenzy

It’s home on the firing range here on Farm Frenzy. Drift and shortcut your way through these meadows, but look out for the sheep! Especially if you dare to take the jump off the barn roof.

ModNation Racers Beta - Market Run ModNation Racers Beta - Sand Storm

The desert oasis in Market Run (left) looks calm from the outside, but the action inside is anything but. Crash through the crowded alleys to max out your weapons and pull out 720-spins on the big wall jump to build up your boost. In Sand Storm (right) Deep in the heart of the desert, this off-road race winds through rolling dunes and treacherous cliffs. Try not to break a sweat as you explore the many paths through the buried ruins.


The next area of the game included in the beta I would like to talk about is the ModSpot. What’s the ModSpot you ask? It’s the central hub area in ModNation Racers you load into once you download the beta. Everything takes place in the ModSpot. It’s where you can meet up with your friends or make some new ones. You can also view, rate, and download the top rated Mods, Karts, and Tracks as well. Lastly it’s where you launch into the Creation Station where you can create your own Mods, Karts and Tracks.

Remember, in North America the ModNation Racers Public Beta will run from today, December 18, through January 10 for everyone who was lucky enough to procure a beta voucher. If you already have a voucher (Did you pick up LittleBigPlanet Game of the Year Edition?), fire up your PS3 and redeem your code on the PlayStation Store to get in on the action. If you don’t have one, you’re in luck – the PlayStation.Blog is giving away a few hundred today! Keep your eyes peeled to the PlayStation Twitter feed and Facebook Page today for details (If you’re unlucky today, even more Beta vouchers will be given away on Monday!).

  • Let me say this again UFG are on the fix. Things like network issues, framerate slowdown, glitches, are common in BETA games. Here’s how a beta works. You play the game. Something is broken. UFG take note and works on the problem.

  • I’ve tried the Modnation site.
    I’ve tried the Gamestop giveaway.

  • Finally got one thanks :D

  • Please fix the issues I have encountered on this Beta:

    1. Load times: WAAAAAAAAAAAY TOO LONG! WOW I have to wait sometimes more than 3 min or so for the game to load to a specific place!

    2. On-Line connect: I downloaded this yesterday/last night, and I only so far played 1 game on-line against people! Then I went to try again and couldn’t. Fix on-line please. When the game tried to connect to internet, nothing happens!

    3. Loading content: I have only loaded a Kart (Lakers Kart :))fine, and I wanted to load my Lakers Fan avatar, but it wont let me? Why is that?

    The one game I played on-line it was REALLY FUN and a great experiment! This game has lots of potential!

  • YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Im so happy :D

  • sweeeeeet! got mine! been at work all day and my gf been struggling to understand what she needed to do lol

    thanks!
    gogogo everyone!!!

  • @klubjunkee

    Yes they are lightning quick.

    I guestimate that of the 50 codes:
    70% try the first one
    15% try the second one
    10% try the last one
    5% pick one in the middle

    Of the 50 codes given last time, they were probably looked at by 1000+ people. Odds are low, unless you are quick.

  • @Ramone, Awesome job putting up the codes to let more people into the beta, kudos to you good sir, consider the game SOLD!!! :D

  • OMG! Best timing ever! Thank you!

  • sweet got mine!

  • Finally in…

  • Well, I take the code AE4T-QRBR-CLB3 from this site. Thanks.

  • thx u i’m ur very best friend

  • YEEEEEES! After about 75 codesm I finally found a working one! Seems that the middle codes tend to be the least entered.

  • used DP87-QRBQ-H4MJ and got in thank you very much.

  • thank you so much!!! i took the EMFQ one

  • can we please get one last batch of codes?
