Continual Match-Making, Ghosts and Time Trials The game would find the 8, 24 or 48 closest gamers to “Mark’s House” who posted local times for “Construction Mayhem.” This means you’ll have an ever-expanding level of challenge through asynchronous competition to play instantly when and where you want!Ģ. For example, if I earn a great time on “Construction Mayhem” while at “Mark’s House,” I can check my rank versus other gamers’ local times and more importantly, my friends…including Mark. Gamers can also select one of their saved locations and view other competitors’ times that were earned nearby.

These times become part of the Local Leaderboards which gamers can use to compete in a fun arcade-style atmosphere. Gamers can personalize their location names (i.e., My Home, My Work, Mark’s House Where I Always Win, etc.) for easy reference. When a gamer who has opted to “Use Location Data” posts a lap time to the Leaderboards, that time is connected to their current location.

More importantly, ModNation Racers: Road Trip was designed to work around your schedule and let you compete with your friends whenever (and wherever) you want. This game is intended to let you take advantage of your road trips-whether they’re across the country, to another state or just traveling between home and work or school. The team here in San Diego created an impressive list of online functionality to take advantage of the WiFi/3G and GPS functionality.

I wanted to give Mark Wilson a break this week so that I could talk about the robust online features in ModNation Racers: Road Trip.
