Comin’ at you with a quick studio update before we take off to enjoy the Thanksgiving long weekend. We’ve been moving quickly to get a few things wrapped up this week, and I've been busy working on a new video for our Hot Holidays car pack. Che's hinted at our next installment of Downloadable Content (DLC). Every car is a heavy hitter folks! The Hot Holidays car pack will be available for download on December 8th, but check back soon for the official video and car list.
The rest of us here at Turn 10 have been crunching away on our second title update that will hit an Xbox 360 near you later this evening. Besides what you see below we’ve also patched a few holes to maintain equilibrium in our online economy…something we take very seriously.
This new title update contains:
Fixes to all known glitches.
The addition of cockpit view driver shift animations.
Fixes for all known Time Trial and Leaderboard exploits/bugs.
New title update aside we’ve also updated our Matchmaking list with some new additions you’ll want to check out this long weekend. The major addition you’ll notice is our all-new “Playground” category that will be used to host alternative game types like tag, and more restrictive racing such as our “A Class Expert” hopper that is currently live. For tag we’ve added an A Class “Keep the IT” game type where the winner is the person who’s been “IT” the longest after 5 minutes. Expect to see this section in flux more often than our other general categories. Have a look!
Our lucky LCE owners got another special treat as we’ve sent out the latest VIP car earlier today. Check the in-game message center to receive your copy of the Halo Waypoint Lambo (shown above), painted by community MVP “m0dus”!
And finally…Happy Thanksgiving from all of us here at Turn 10 Studios!
Peace
