Oh my gosh, Region lock removed! (http://blog.us.playstation.com/2010/09/23/modnation-racers-naughty-dogs-ride-online-region-lock-removed/#more-36954) === Source! (http://blog.us.playstation.com/2010/08/02/modnation-monday-title-update-1-02-releases-august-4th-brings-improvements/) Load Time Improvements While there are still loads, you will see decreases in load times throughout the game. New “Casual” Difficulty Mode We’ve added a “casual” difficulty setting in the options screen. Challenge friends in XP Series We’ve added the ability to invite your friends to XP Races & Series. No more “Hot Lap” Cheaters We fixed a bug that allowed players to cut the track and post unbeatable times in Hot Lap. Get into Online Races Quicker Along with improved load times, we’ve removed the online game room from the ModSpot so you can get into the race faster. Improved Server Stability We’ve addressed issues to improve intermittent disconnects that players were experiencing. Three Challenges now more attainable We wanted to provide you challenges, but didn’t want to sacrifice fun. We found 3 challenges that proved extremely difficult and changed the conditions to complete them. This includes: * Devastator takedown on Wild Run * Devastator takedown on Modobahn * Sideswipe 3 opponents on the cliff side on Fracture The Tin Bucket Unlocked! Finally this is an item is unlocked and available to everyone by default. Collector Card Improvement Now see all player creations in their entirety. Improvements to ModNation Racers don’t stop here, we are still constantly listening to the community and are committed to making ModNation Racers one of the most enjoyable experiences you’ll have on your PS3. Downloaded! Plus if you didn't know already, the "250k create xp" trophy is actually within reach for the average player. You now get 10x the previous XP amount for tracks and mods. The create XP gained is also retroactive! My create exp went from 10k to 100k. Also the featured top mods in the modspot have changed Wow, there are also unmentioned fixes! You can skip the opening credits, and have the option of career/mod/share station @ the opening title! :o Fracture sideswiping challenge: Now it doesn't matter where on the track you sideswipe. Also the devastator challenges have been changed from hitting opponent with one to activating them!

Thanks for the info. I'll have to take another look at MNR now. I haven't played it for weeks because of the difficulty and the loading times so it's good to hear about this patch.

Oh dear. I tried it but it's not much better to be honest. I had about 10 minutes and then got fed up with it again. I'll probably trade it in sometime.

They actually made the challenges easier? Cool! They added a new difficulty? Meh. They added the option to skip the opening credits? Neat! They didn't remove region lock? K, still not playing.

Yes, the region lock is still an awful thing to have. That's something I really wanted to see done away with in this patch.

I played a bit with the patch, the loading times are SO much better. The music doesn't even loop. About the region lock, they said something like: "We are looking into it, but can't make any promises at this stage." @ mistervista: What did you get annoyed with? I had fun.

I was going to get Modnation Racers, but when I heard reviews complaining about the AI cheepness, I gave the game a miss. I might get this game soon now they supposedly fixed it. Also, region locking? I thought PS3 games wern't region locked (as in the game disks themselves, not DLC).

The PS3 doesn't region lock discs, this is the game itself. You can't play with anyone from a different region, and it's BS. It has lowered my loading times, but now I'm getting frame rate issues.

For future reference heist, you can edit the title by editing the OP. Just hit the 'go advanced' button and edit the title. Also, HOLY CARP NO MORE REGION LOCK! WOOT!
