Ridge Racer Unbounded anyone? There's a demo on Steam now...

Downloading...


Sorry to disappoint you, but I bought the whole game and to be frank, didn't find it terribly fun so far. The drifting is hard to control, the game's major gimmick (driving dangerously to earn "Power" and destroy obstacles strewn across the course) can be rather counterproductive (some smashables lie outside the proper racing lines), the AI cheats too much and the jump physics are awful (trust me, on the full game there's an early Time Trial on a track with many jumps strewn and I guarantee you that at least once you'll land wrong from one of the jumps and spin out). Plus there are no items and not much personality to speak of. So far this is the one of the only PS3 games I regret having purchased.


That's a real shame. I mean I'm not a big fan of the style but that advanced editor looked awesome!!! Also, after playing thousands of hours of MNR drifting in any game is probably pretty hard and wierd feeling! Still, the other stuff sounds pretty bad. Real shame.

Re: Open Letter to UFG

SIGNED.    Sony,  UFG ,      Please  give us  a  MNR2.   Your companies should  be amazed  at  the  custom  Mods, Karts  and  Tracks that  have  been created  for  FREE  for  you  by the  MNR  community.  It  should be obvious that  Your  game is a  phenomenal  success  because of the players  creations.  Do you think the game would have been this successful  without . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .:smileysurprised:   So  why not give us what we are asking for  . . . . . . . . . . .. . . . . .

 

                                         MNR2

 

 

  I was thinking about all the games I have played  over the years,  and  "in my book" ,    not  one  of  them  comes even close to  MNR.

 

C'mon  Sony,  UFG,    The  ModNation community  has been giving back to you  by  making  a   virtually unlimited supply  of  downloadable  Original creations that   helped you make  millions. ( This is why the Vita version enables you to dwnload  and  Race all the custom tracks, mods and karts  from  the PS3 version )

 

It's  time to give us something back.  That would simply be  MNR2  with  all  the  " Bells and Whistles ". 

 

THIS  WOULD  BE  NOTHING  SHORT  OF   A  WIN - WIN  SITUATION  FOR  SONY and  UFG because  We the MNR community would all rush out  to get it  and  once  again, . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

 

 The  jaws would  drop from  the top  floor  to the bottom floor in the Sony building,   as  they  would  be  witness  to  some   truly  incredible creations  that will continue to  make them  Millions More.

Re: Open Letter to UFG

I have absolutely no desire to play LBK.  Doesn't look fun at all to me.  I really wish MNR:RT had been better, with TRUE crossplay between the PS3 and actual, full online gameplay and ModSpot.  And yes, I know that UFG had nothing to do with MNR:RT, but maybe they should have...  MNR could have had a HUGE push if RT and the PS3 version had had more

interconnectivity IMO.  Like, I really wish you could have loaded up the same track in edit mode on both the PS3 and Vita, and have it so that you can work on your tracks with both devices at the same time.

 

Honestly, I can't stand track creation on the Vita.  The "Draw Track" feature is nice, but it's the ONLY part of track creation that isn't frustrating and annoying IMO.

 

Oh well.  To missed opportunities!! **Raises glass**

Re: Open Letter to UFG

All of the previews I have read say: It stays true to little big planet.

 

This means that wierd shuttle thing (no modspot), probably easier difficulty, slightly different drifting...

 

Add this all up and my guess is you would never no it was related to modnation. By the sounds of it UFG is just helping to make a LBP game where you drive. :smileysad:

From 0:17 to 0:50.  Did you guys sell out? Is it still all about what you want to do? Or did money talk?

That's exactly what I was thinking.  I've never cared much for the Little Big Planet games.  I tried them.  Not my cup of tea. I really can't imagine playing a racing version. 

From the looks of things most of my good friends aren't planning on picking up LBPK, so we'll be here until they change the locks and board up the windows.

Signed :catwink:

Re: Open Letter to UFG

Come here for another open letter to UFG. Yes, people care about his game, some of them very much.

03/2011 - 08/2012. These were some memorable 17 months.
This is the end, my only friends. I'm moving on to other things, as ModNation has given me all it could give.
