Default 1.1 Update in progress

Hi sorry I've been out of touch, but the update has taken a bit longer than we planned and I figured it would be better to keep my mouth shut until we had something real to say.

As Some of you already know the 1.1 update is in beta testing and I feel comfortable now giving you guys some information about what we have added.

I am really glad that most of the people on this forum stuck with the game long enough to get over the initial difficulty hump, but a lot of people out there probably didn't and would be stuck on Martand Raceway forever if we didn't find a way to help them. In fact, The vast majority of the complaints we recieved were about the game's difficulty (wastedyuthe 1, Fastlane team 0) so that is where we focused most of our efforts.

The big change in this Update is that you will be able play the entire game in "Easy Mode" which affects everything from AI skill and checkpoint time to car handling.

The original difficulty is still there, but it is called, appropriately, "Hard Mode"

We have also added a batch of options such as the oft requested camera tilt to compensate for tilting the phone to steer, and some helpful things like auto-acceleration, and brake-only drifting, which should help advanced players like bhagwad who want better control over when they drift and when they corner. We will release a full list when we release the update soon.

We have of course worked out a lot of little kinks as well.

Just out of curiosity, how are people doing on the challenges? anyone beat them all yet?
