Sony going under the hood of PlayStation 3 demolition racer in "the next couple of weeks"; update to address boost exploit, stability.

By Tim Surette, GameSpot Posted Apr 27, 2007 4:05 pm PT

As with automobiles, games nowadays often need a bit of work done on them even after they're in the hands of the customer. Sony is getting out the toolbox for MotorStorm, its PlayStation 3 demolition racer, and has promised that a patch will be released sometime in May.
On the European MotorStorm forums, community team coordinator "Lestrade" writes that an update for the game will be coming "in the next couple of weeks." The update will be free and is required to play the game online.
The patch, which bumps up the game to version 1.2, will address several issues, including a bug that allowed racers to exploit the boost, an increase in the size of the buddy list, better online performance, audio issues, and more. Full details of the patch are available in the forum post.

he slick-looking off-road racer, MotorStorm, is quickly becoming the poster child for PlayStation 3 updates. For its next official patch, slated to release on June 7, the game will add a brand new Time Attack mode that allows users to race against their own ghost in an effort to best their most efficient times.

As an added bonus, the fastest ghosts will automatically be uploaded to the global leaderboards so that others can compete against them. Additionally, phantom opponents aren't limited to just one -- in total players can race against seven different specters in a single race; these ghosts include ones made by the user, the previously-mentioned "best time" ghosts, or special developer-made "Evolution Ghosts" made up of a range of different skill levels.

But a brand new mode isn't the only extra that Sony has added for the new update. A host of other improvements have been included as well. Listed below are all the fixes that players can expect to see when the patch hits the servers:

Game List Improvement
"Game Status" is now displayed with the game list in the online lobby making it easier to find a session where you'll be able to join and race promptly.

Host Identification
Within the game lobby the host is now clearly identified by a 'host' icon visible to all players and updated during host migration.

Boost Exploit Fix
A bug involving the boost system that allowed a player to use boost in an exploitative manner has been resolved.

Buddy List Size
This has been updated to support up to 50 friends.

Text Cut-off fix for SD
When playing in standard definition, all messages will now display as intended.

Improved Stability Online
Online gameplay stability has been improved.

Audio Fix
All known issues with 5.1 / 7.1 surround have been fixed. Audio issues within the front-end have been resolved.

Player Ranking Reset
Players were found to be ranked incorrectly due to a bug. Because of this all online rankings will be reset and the ranking system should now function correctly (Evolution and Sony apologies for this measure but it will result in a fairer and more stable system).

Auto-Start
Races will be forced to start after a fixed countdown which should dramatically reduce the waiting times in lobbies. Hosts may delay this countdown up to three times.

Save Data Corruption
When quitting the game using the PS button it was possible to corrupt the save game data. This will no longer occur.

Lobby Information
Upcoming track and current lap details will be displayed in lobbies.

Vehicle Damage Reset
When restarting a single-player race during a death camera the damage wasn't always reset at the start of the next race. This has now been resolved.

Missing Audio
Audio effects were missing from the death camera, these have now been reinstated.

Name Tag Toggle
Added ability to switch the player name tags on / off during online races using a single button press (L1).

To install the update, players simply need load the MotorStorm Blu-ray disc, select "online" and install the prompted update

Conforme tínhamos noticiado Motorstorm terá uma actualização enorme, mas afinal não será em Maio.

Foi divulgado que esta actualização gratuita de Motorstorm será efectuada no dia 1 de Junho.



Conforme referimos este é uma actualização muito bem vinda e desejada à muito tempo.

Uma nova actualização não revelada na lista da actualização para Maio, é o modo Time Attack.

Talvez tenha sido por isto que a Evolution, não tenha efectuado a actualização para o mês de Maio, como estava prometido, e esperado assim que ela fosse lançada mais completa.

Será assim incluído o modo Time Attack, aonde podemos escolher livremente a pista e o carro. Após termos efectuado uma volta esse mesmo record será enviado para um ranking mundial, em forma de "ghost".

E podemos após assim correr contra o nosso próprio "ghost", ou efectuar download do "ghost" do record da "X" pista com o "X" veiculo e correr contra esse mesmo "ghost". Uma excelente actualização.

Para podermos efectuar esta actualização temos que ir à Playstation Store, no dia 1 de Junho e efectuar o download de uma chave para o efeito.
 
MotorStorm's New Track
Then on June 1, Sony will put Premium Content Pack One on the PSN, whose main feature will be a new track called Coyote Revenge. Smith said: “This is based on a reversed Coyote Rage, although there is so much that’s new about it that you won’t recognise it.” Pack One will also include three new Tickets, including Coyote Weekend, which will yield an unlockable car (alas, what class it belongs in has not yet been revealed). Plus, there will be a new online mode called Eliminator, in which: “You’ll have 20 seconds to catch and overtake the person in front of you”. And the pack will include a new Big Rig and a new Rally Car. When we find out how much this Pack One will cost, we’ll let you know; in the meantime, it’s good to hear that MotorStorm continues to evolve online.
