Season 14 Community Update

Hey Riders!

Welcome to our Season 15 Community Update! This season brought a ton of exciting additions, from improvements to the Park Creator to the launch of the Pockett Plane and Hovercraft, as well as a bunch of new seasonal content for you to enjoy.

As always, we asked you to share your thoughts through our seasonal survey, and today's update is all about your feedback: what you loved, what you think could be better, both for the last season and in general.

So without further ado, let's dive in! (Before season 16 gets here!)

The Dirt Bike Teaser - 2 stroke engine sound on a 4 stroke bike?

Before we dive into your comments with our survey, we wanted to quickly address our early sneak peek regarding the Dirt Bike coming in Season 16.

Last month, we shared a short teaser of our upcoming Dirt Bike. Many of you noticed that the engine sound in the preview didn't match the 4-stroke engine design of the bike.

You are absolutely right! It was only a placeholder. The version shown was not representative of the final product. Get ready for an explosion of sound in the Republic!

Most Discussed Topics within our S14 Survey

Here we will cover some of the most discussed topics in our S14 survey, while we cannot provide ETAs and exact details in some answers, we really do appreciate all your feedback, and we aim to provide you with as much clarity as possible at this time!

Multiplayer

Increase Mass Race Variety

Many of you mentioned that you would like to see an increase in the mass race variety and for us to add more playlists. We will be doing just that, in S16 we will be try the MR XL, which will have 5 tracks in a single Mass Race event.

Not only this but we will aim to have more playlists per week in the following seasons.

Leaderboards

Some players mentioned that they feel like the seasonal reset makes it feel like the work they have done gets wiped at the end of each season. With that we are discussing ways to change the way we treat leaderboards. We'll come back to you soon to get your opinion on the topic!.

UGE

Increase Object Limit

Many players have mentioned that you'd like to see more object slots available when creating events.
This is something we're eager to implement as well! However it requires extensive testing on our end before we can roll out such an update. Our goal is to ensure that any changes are stable and accessible across all platforms.

Changing event type during creations & aligning objects

You've mentioned wanting the ability to edit event types and use an alignment tool within the Park Creator.

Good news! Both features are already available!

However, we understand that there's a need for clearer guidance on how to use the Park Creator and all its tools effectively. That's why our community team will be creating a series of tutorial videos to help you get the most out of the platform and its features.

Rewards for outstanding UGE

We saw mention that players would like to have more incentive to create events in game.

We want to have ways of highlighting players as UGE in-game and we already have one! Players who we believe to be doing awesome work on receive a secretive title "The Architect" But this is just the start, we want to bring many more things to the table but our team needs to decide what those things will be before we provide you with more intel!

An exciting new feature that we will introduce in Season 16 is the ability to display players' creations directly in the open world. You won't even have to enter the event!
To start with, we'll feature the creation of Reddit user murtter: his recreation of the Tony Hawk Pro Skater park, The Hangar, as a tribute to the legendary series!
We're already running a contest on Discord for the following seasons, to give everyone a chance to see their park displayed in the Republic!

Issues with camera angles when creating and player events

Some players have reported that camera angles can be problematic when creating or playing events.

Our team is aware of this issue. We aim to address it as soon as possible!

Multiplayer Options

We've heard this not only through our survey but across all platform's players want the option to play their creations against others in real time.

Our team is currently discussing the possibility of implementing such game modes. While we can't promise anything just yet, it's definitely on our radar.

We hope this update has brought you up to speed! Our team is committed to continuing to provide a space where you can share your thoughts and feedback. If you missed the chance to participate in this season's survey, don't worry we'll have another community survey ready for you in the next season.

Until then... here are a few shots of the Dirt Bike!
