hey guys i think u guys are doing an amazing job!!

But…

i do have one concern.

i love games that u can compete online in multiplayer against eachother! i also like showing off my stats and trophies and accomplishments. so what im asking is if this game is going to have any sort of ranking system at all? i get kind of upset when amazing online games come out like James Camerons Avatar but they dont have any ranking system. :(

so are u guys going to have any ranking system in this?

You guys need to make a game called Modnation Golfers.
Where we can create our own golfers.
create any kind/type of golf course.
set our own wind speeds.
create funny golf clubs.

I can understand your concern, but the game is very accessible and even beginner players will be able to hold their own, and enjoy themselves when racing more skilled friends. Anyone finding themselves behind will have a number of options at their disposal to get back into the race. First and foremost they will have a higher chance of getting weapons from the supercharge ladder which will allow them to portal back into the pack. Then keep in mind that players in the back will have fewer distractions from other karts, and will be able to upgrade to more powerful weapons much easier. So no racer will ever be down and out.

We have made an effort to add more skill based play into our game, that was important to us, but we also realized that not every racer will be a hardcore user. This is kart racing after all, and we wanted to ensure all players of every skill level could have fun playing the game.

Don’t be too quick to judge. Attacks from other players will cause you to drop weapons, but let me clarify:

• If you are hit with a level 1 weapon, you will not drop anything.
• A level 2 weapon will cause you to drop 1 level (so for example if you were holding a level 3 weapon and were hit with a level 2, you would drop down to level 2).
• Finally a level 3 weapon will cause you to lose everything.

We did this for many reasons, most importantly, trying to prevent every player in the race from hoarding level 3 weapons until the last lap. Imagine driving towards the finish and then suddenly being hit with 11 giant weapons…all in a row…every race. Not very much fun. Also, keep in mind that you will always have your shield, so not every attack is a guaranteed hit. Plus, shields also have the ability to protect you from various track related hazards, so it can come in very handy in multiple situations.

ModNation Racers will support custom soundtracks. So you can play music out of your XMB and it will replace the music in the game. That being said, the music in the game is really solid, so don’t be too quick to play your own.

I had this game on my radar, was *probably* gonna get it, but it just keeps getting better and better…it’s even motivating me to beat all the other games I haven’t beaten yet before the end of May!

I’m really looking forward to this game, especially with all the recent media released about it in the last month or two. I hope that you have a long list of DLC planned for it as I’ll get it all!
