Here is what the new Motorstorm Update 1.2 will include, read the article for a break down.
------------------------------------------
Apologies for the delay in getting these to you but its time to share the Update notes with everyone to show the new features and fixes coming your way in the next couple of weeks.
As you'll see as you read through, a full reset of all Ranks will also happen when the update becomes available. With the ranks being a little messed up with the Boost exploiters and the rank bug we think it's the best solution.
The update will be free and should arrive by the middle of May and it will be required to play online. Once it's ready the update will be installed when you next select the Online option.
Any questions then please ask away as I'm passing a summary of feedback from the community back to the developer team.

The PlayStation 3 may not have been the strongest generation for Sony, but there were still some diamonds in the rough that deserve a revisit as PS5 remasters.
Even if they could just remaster and put on PSVR2, some would still look great as VR titles and could do a whole lot to bolster the headset w these exclusives! I'd imagine the investment of reworking these titles into VR would be way less than building new games from the ground up, and they could be amazing experiences, and VR often makes flat games feel fresh again. The Resistance and Killzone games are particularly what I want to see!!
The time is perfect for a resistance fall of man game campaign coop multiplayer
Resistance was ok but Warhawk and Starhawk was better and kept me coming back for almost a decade of fun and petty revenge on the loud mouth unskilled players 🤣
Edit I loved capture the flag dropping the pot on the flag carrier was extremely satisfying as well as transforming your plane in bot form and stumping them to death 😱
Digital Foundry : Evolution Studios' Motorstorm is one of the first, finest and most fondly remembered of launch titles for PlayStation 3. It's a release designed to answer the question posed by each new console generation: what makes a game 'next-gen'? With its robust physics engine and massive tracks, Motorstorm serves up a bold affirmative answer to this question, delivering an experience that could never have existed on prior console hardware. At the same time, the path to release was fraught with challenges that almost serve as a microcosm of the PlayStation 3 release situation itself. It was a success, however, with a trilogy of PS3 releases, plus PSP, Vita and even PS2 off-shoots.
After Driveclub and Onrush, the dev team will now contribute to and assist with the development of the upcoming NFS.
Never really got into it myself I remember getting it with ps3 and being a bit underwhelmed I preferred the RC version they did for vita 🙌🏻🤣
MotorStorm debuted on PlayStation 3 15 years ago today (in Europe), and remains one of the format's best alternative racing games.
Ahhh motorstorm....i still have the reveal trailer back in my mind from e3 2006 or 5 i think...ps3 never manage to par the gameplay trailer back then but the game especially the first one for me was AWESOME....I m sure that ps5 is capable to give us now this kind of fidelity....for me motorstorm and daytona usa 2 in arcades still is my favorites arcade racer ever....
Bought the 60gb PS3 with motorstorm and my first 720p/1080i TV on the release day, great memories. Oh the mud!
Real shame this franchise fell by the wayside. With todays tech it would/could be such a great open world arcade racer.
The first Motorstorm was good, but Pacific Rift blew it out of the water IMO. Still one of my favourite arcade racing games of all time. I also really liked Apocalypse, despite the Supercars and Superbikes being OP compared with the other vehicle classes.
Mororatoem 1 was excellent the visuals and everything had a really good vibe about it. If they remade that with a festival type open world... If only
Great news they've cut down the times it's going to take to get into an online game, it wasn't anything to do with loading it's just the confusion that surrounded which was the best room to go for, spot on good job Evolution...
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.
What the hell is the point if they can delay it three times,
I've gone to other games, because I wait all night to start a race!
Say hello Ridge Racer, goodbye Motorstorm!
Oh good, finally I'll be able to play MS online. I really tried, but the waiting times and not being able to see the status of rooms drove me batty. Wish it could be more like Resistance's online experience. I wish Resistance could be more like SOCOM 2 was :)
Its about time, Ive been avoiding playing motorstorm online lately for most of the reasons listed above. I have always hated waiting and waiting for a game to start. they really need some kind of matchmaking system.
Or did they do that already to busy playin MLB2K7, RFOM, and oblivion.
