Let's see. Tomorrow Modnation Monday will reveal the real release date I think.

Ugh, I hope so. I really hope they get rid of that region lock and reduce those load times! That's all I'm really concerned about, but a Casual Mode sounds nice.

Yup, it's Wednesday: http://blog.us.playstation.com/2010/...-improvements/

There's loads of neat stuff coming, so I'll definitely be picking up the game again when I get back from the US.

Hotlap -
Friday: Mystery Track of the Week

Hmm.. Is that a new track from the upcoming track DLC hinted?

1 thing ufg have missed out though is some free dlc for people who actually had the game when it wor broken, i think some tasty free dlc for the people who had 2 put up with all the bugs and a not finished game sounds reasonable

Yeah that'd be great! Like some apology DLC

I've been away from the game for a while, but these fixes have me happy!

Load Time Improvements
While there are still loads, you will see decreases in load times throughout the game.

New “Casual” Difficulty Mode
We’ve added a “casual” difficulty setting in the options screen.

Challenge friends in XP Series
We’ve added the ability to invite your friends to XP Races & Series.

No more “Hot Lap” Cheaters
We fixed a bug that allowed players to cut the track and post unbeatable times in Hot Lap.

Get into Online Races Quicker
Along with improved load times, we’ve removed the online game room from the ModSpot so you can get into the race faster.

Improved Server Stability
We’ve addressed issues to improve intermittent disconnects that players were experiencing.

Three Challenges now more attainable
We wanted to provide you challenges, but didn’t want to sacrifice fun. We found 3 challenges that proved extremely difficult and changed the conditions to complete them. This includes:

* Devastator takedown on Wild Run
* Devastator takedown on Modobahn
* Sideswipe 3 opponents on the cliff side on Fracture

The Tin Bucket Unlocked!
Finally this is an item is unlocked and available to everyone by default.

Collector Card Improvement
Now see all player creations in their entirety.

Improvements to ModNation Racers don’t stop here, we are still constantly listening to the community and are committed to making ModNation Racers one of the most enjoyable experiences you’ll have on your PS3.

My rank was lvl 18, now it's 28. :P ha. I should play an online race to update my sig heh.
EDIT: XP went from 9k to 100k, lol.

[ghostrider135]

my rank went up 2 about 26 lol, i wor sat there 5 mins waitin 4 the updates about xp 4 this that and the other haha

[TheZimInvader]

Fudge yes. So...I guess UFG really does care about what we think. It just took quite a while to finish the patch!

[Spinout209]

I'm really excited for this update, a bit late, but it lets us know that UFG is trying and working on MNR still. For future updates they should really put the Region Lock fix and I think that's it

[ghostrider135]

spinout what we need is someone clever who can find out if what we get in this update whould have taken so long to compile, and we aint got this patch yet mate lets not get ahead of ourselvs lol

[midnight_heist]

Wow, there are also unmentioned fixes!
You can skip the opening credits, and have the option of career/mod/share station @ the opening title! :o

Fracture sideswiping challenge: Now it doesn't matter where on the track you sideswipe.
Also the devastator challenges have been changed from hitting opponent with one to activating them!
