As we all know they do intend on having downloadable tracks. how intrested would you be in paying 1.00usd for a huge area that would be able to hold online rockclimbing events, deep mud pits, ramps over busses/cars, rows of fully destructable cars. you know for the monster truck *hint*. many of the smaller Autocross tracks as seen in the "festavel" movie.

will post vid as soon a its finished uploading

what do you think?

I think a mod should rename the thread in "MotorStorm downloadable track wishes" or something, maybe some guys from Evolution see this. 8)

Btw. your idea with a "Rockclimb/Mudding/stunt track" is pretty cool imo.

you could call the mode 'Gauntlet Mode' you have to do three laps without getting shot...

I have passed on a link to this thread directly to the developers at Evolution. Keep the ideas coming, they're most likley watching.

..ok^^
A track which combine some parts of every course in the game together, for example a half round from Raingod Mesa, a quarter round from Grizzly etc. and with a big last sprint through the desert without corners just a huge straight with many obstacles like rocks, big plants, broken cars and something like that.
Like a grand tour through Monument Valley and around the MotorStorm event.

And in online it would be cool when you could limit the "respawns" after a crash, it would be very hard to drive something like my grand tour idea and when you make one crash your out of the race. 8)

frosty
12-17-2006, 06:55 PM
Yeah, I like the idea of that. Like an endurance mode where you are limited on how many times you respawn, or even prohibited from it all together, where you battle other people online to see who can stay alive to the end. The top set would then move on to the next race until only one remained.

refueling could be introduced into this.

frosty
12-17-2006, 07:03 PM
^a VERY good idea. As well as having a limited ammount of boost so that you have to use it conservatively. Mr. Simon Benson has been notified of this thread, so we'll see if they think our ideas are any good or not.

In any case i would love to see more free roaming tracks, with highspeed straits where you must plan your routes for your self etc.^^

guessed appearances from characters in other sony games. Ratchet on a bike, Snake in a truck

Snake and Eva on a sidecar, man. And instead of boost, have Snake shooting at other vehicles. Machinegun for cars and bikes, RPG for trucks. And make Eva flash herself to distract other drivers and make them crash. OMG!

now if we could drive the Metal Gear around that track... mmmmmmm

all the cars out of Wacky races LOL

LOL yeah that would be funny but i think characters like a Ratchet would destroy the atmosphere of the game (imo) , but Snake or other "realistic" looking characters would be pretty cool.^^

In singleplayer it would be great, but online just when you can switch a option for that on or off.^^

Monster Trucks would be a sick addition. I could see them adding those and having tracks that are really hilly or rocky (even more so then the ones they already have).

frosty
12-17-2006, 07:23 PM
Yeah, let's try to stick to mods that most likley make it into the game. Mods like new vehicles, new tracks, new single player modes, and new multiplayer modes. I think adding Icelandic offroad vehicles would make an awesome new type of racing mode in Motorstorm, though Monument Valley probably wouldn't be the optimal location for that. They'd have to make a new location and only have cars of like power and ability compete in it. Take a look at this video, they are so damn fast they can drive on water.

i would like to see tracks that criss cross. you pair off with someone on the net. if one of you has a chance of winning then perhaps at one of the converging points your cohort could take them out. or even two teams..

Oh, and if they're reading this, even though I'm sure they are already working on forthcoming games, MotorStorm sequel or not, does anyone remember the rumours about a volcano track? And what about making a sequel somewhere in New Zealand where there's a lot of muddy places (think of weather effects) in lushy green landscapes?

And where's the Xmas snow track? ;)

frosty could you link us to their site so that we can see if they respond

frosty
12-17-2006, 07:34 PM
No, I don't want to bother them too much. They are busy cranking out new material. I know their e-mail addresses from meeting Simon at E3, so that's how I contact them. If I get a response, I'll let you know, however you'll most likley just start seeing your ideas popping up in the PS Store if they like them.

Here are some of my ideas that they hopefully add to their design boards.

-non-looping tracks. Just an open level in a basic rectangle, plenty of things in the way and weaving lines going every which way, but just a straight shot from point a to point b.

-gradually diminishing track. How about a race through a canyon that gradually gets narrower to the point where you can only have one car at a time? You could do it on a cliff, either way, the road gets more and more narrow, forcing competitors into the walls or off cliffs.

-a figure 8 track. Lets get something like hotwheels going and get some head-on collisions.

-offraod downhill. steep downhill down the side of a mountain, where you get far far far too much speed than you can handle, with a plethora of obsticles and small jumps all over the place. Think: skiing, but on dirt with cars

-long jump/ high jump competition?

-we've all seen "reversible tracks". How about making it so you are the only one going in reverse, tracks and laps still count, just in reverse only for you. Can you do it?

-a final runthrough of the festival itself. Say... the festival is over, everyone has almost packed up and left, you get to drive about free roaming on the leftover ramps and such.

-IN CAR VIEW! Seriously, put it back in. If you are worried about it bugging some, have an options checklist of available views you can switch through. Put 25 in there that you can cycle through, and allow people to pick which ones they want to use.

-although this would take way too much effort: how about horses? That would be pretty funny, especially if they blew up and gears and springs went flying everywhere when they 'crashed'.

That's all I can think of for now at least... I think most of those aren't too difficult to do.

This thread really illustrates the benefit of downloadable content. Suddenly rating a game on it's replay value doesn't hold much weight, as we could still be playing fresh stuff from Motorstorm 6 years from now. Gotta love next gen. Keep the great ideas coming.

How about this little mini game. A wide open field full of mud. 2 goals at either end, and 2 teams of 4 (or 8, whichever can be done) square off in a mud slinging offroad version of soccer (or the name it deserves to be called, football).

they do that in RL ya know!

BTW if they do see this i want them to fix the fence issue. some fences like on the sides of bridges are to small and weak looking to be stoping a truck. they need to make them distructabe or make them look like 2' of concreat and steel. my rig should not be halted buy a 2x4" wood railing.

But yes an endurance race where your crossing huge open expances Like the paris da kar puncuated buy small rivenes or small rock formations just enuff to F^%$ you up if your not paying attention. could be set up to stream in the data. so the race could go on for 30 min without a load.

OH A MINI GAME WHERE YOU HAVE TO WALK AROUND AND COLLECT YOUR PARTS IF YOU BLOW UP!:laugh:

how about a sort of team relay race. you have a pretty long course and say two or three teams with three maybe four competitors in each team. each goes for there own choice of vehicle, your pref. set off from the start, drive to the first point. pass the baton onto the next guy who moves to the next point. meanwhile the other one has to go back and pick up another baton. it would be a bit boring to start with for the end of the course competitors but maybe include a spectator view like unreal tournament. imagine the chaos as you go back and forth between your own bit of track. hope i have explained this OK.

BEST IDEA EVER!

Yo! That could be like the final race! It's like the 'boss' of the whole game!

I want an in car view where you see your driver's hand and the wheel, that'd be cooler. And the dirt comes up and hits the windshield instead of your TV screen for that view.

people here remember San Fran Rush 2049? i think so. wel there were some awesome ideas implimented into that game.

- Huge shortcuts.
- Trick Levels
- tilting of the car

they should add stuff like these into motorstorm. a stunt track would be awesome. new levels with huge short cuts and such.

-gauntlet level. Long canyon, FILLED with random debris. Plenty of wooden collapsible walls, tons of barrels, abandoned cars... Just show off the physics might and have a race with a bunch of things getting kicked around and bouncing everywhere. Also ramps. Plenty of them, and with things to hit off them.
