New MX Track Update | TrackDayR

[@ResoluteKraken]

What do you guys think? I think it has made a lot of progress in a short amount of time. Improved air physics will really make it start to feel like a real MX game soon!

[@nikomouklab]

Interesting. Never heard about this game before.

Looks amazing but adjusting the first person cam would make it awesome! I would buy it if I could for sure!

[@ResoluteKraken]

I have kept requesting this from the devs - they will eventually add the feature to adjust the camera.

[@jawajacobite7207]

@@ResoluteKraken cool! I really hope they do add it.

Seems like alot of progress in a short amount of time. The sand blowing in the wind is pretty cool.

[@ingamefocus3114]

Really liking the look of this one, could be massive if it gets it’s tweaks n even makes it mass market, would love to see it hit console especially if they have the enduro side going for it also, Up to now, like the bike riders lean, love the sand blowing cross track, the light on the bikes, the potential for enduro and of course the pivot turn around you asked them to implement, dnt think ever seen that in a mx game, awesome, look fwd to hearing/seeing more, keep up good wrk man 👍👌👊

Speed of progression is pretty impressive. I do wonder if they should perhaps go with a different discipline once they get the off-road handling to a standard they're/(we're) happy with... MX/Supercross is a relatively crowded space even tho it's still niche. I mean we have at least 5-6 current dedicated MX/Supercross games, but... One Paris Dakar style game.. Zero X-trials... zero Enduro,... zero hillcimb... zero Hare and hound... Zero Flat track or Speedway... etc I mention it at this early stage because there probably isn't one type of gameplay physics/controls that fits all and it's probably best to choose the direction early on and focus on it.

[@ResoluteKraken]

I don't think you can count Enduro as another genre. Hard Enduro maybe with trials techniques...but they have already added pivot turn prototype to this game. They have mentioned a desire to do rally raid with road book in the future

[@TrackDayRVideogame]

Correct, during development we will explore a lot with different discipline. As said by Resolute Kraken, in the dev chat we talked about the desire to implement point to point races like rally dakar styile. We are also planning to try with flat track (oval and TT), hard enduro, hillclimb and why not add one or two wheels to the physic core

[@Sell_Dogg]

very swag

The future

[@HiDro111]

What are the physics like? Anything you would compare it to?

[@ResoluteKraken]

Physics are getting better each build. I mostly play MX Bikes so I compare it to that mostly. It is not at that level yet and still feels slightly arcade, but getting better.

[@HiDro111]

@@ResoluteKraken exactly what I was thinking. I think if they make the camera not so bumpy it might look smoother for first person. I was hoping it would be close to mx bikes because those are probably my favourite physics in a mx video game. I have high hopes for this game.

Wow definitely looking a lot better with the adjusted rider position and animations, and awesome to see that they implemented rider lean so quickly! Looking very promising! I think the look of the rider lean would be improved if the movement was mostly in the upper body and shoulders instead of the hips. It should probably behave a little different depending on if you're in the air or on the ground too, having more movement in the hips in the air than on the ground. Also looks like the wheel gyro is pretty damn strong atm. Brake tapping and panic reving should have a much smaller effect, but I guess that's all getting tuned eventually. Do you know if this game uses direct lean like MXB or something different? The steering looks pretty arcadey atm, like it's very assisted if you know what I mean. If they're aiming for a more sim route it would be good to see the steering be a bit more free and input dependant, maybe even experiment with direct steer like sim. Would be awesome to see a game using direct steer and rider lean.

[@ResoluteKraken]

Yes steering feels mostly like mxb in that it is assisted for bike lean. But it feels very much like mxb in the ground so it isn't that bad

[@lapantinopt]

This is a new game? Create for you?

[@ResoluteKraken]

It is new. I only give feedback to the developers

[@azdesertrat7849]

IMO the smart play for the developer(s) would be to target the Milestone & Rainbow Studios arcade games. Having a track editor that allows for custom assets (real terrain import, 3D models, etc) is going to instantly give them some of that market share. The track editors in the Milestone games are so limited plus their new releases are nothing but dressed up previous game versions. MX vs ATV games money grab for every piece of DLC content so it becomes a pretty deep investment if you opt buy everything. TrackDayR should promote community involvement for content much like MX Bikes has done and they could carve out a nice following from the current MX arcade crowd that would kill for anything reminiscent of Reflex.

[@ResoluteKraken]

You asking too much for one person to create track editors in game. We'll be waiting 10 years like mxb to be finished
