Community Update - September 2024

Welcome to the September 2024 Community Update! Here you can read the latest news about development - primarily what we've been working on recently; and what you can expect to see in upcoming patches. To join the discussion, as well as get more info direct from the development team, you can join us on Discord!

In Progress

We're always hard at work on different features and fixes - and here are a few of the things we've been working on this month, but aren't yet finished. As always, you can check out the roadmap for more information.

Online Multiplayer - Core functionality is complete. We are now focusing on fixes and UI. See below for a video of Online Multiplayer in action!

UI Update - We'll have more information on this in a separate blog post, soon!

AI Update - We're in the process of making the AI smarter and nicer to race against - early feedback from testers is good!

Next Cars - The next two cars are in progress at the moment - we'll have more news about them in the coming months.

Waiting for Next Update

Due to the work on multiplayer, and the recently-released patch, there's currently nothing waiting for the next update - but we're still hard at work!

Bonus - Online Multiplayer Test 1

Last Friday (20.9.2024) we conducted our first Online Multiplayer Test with a few GeneRally 2 community members. We were aiming to validate the work and testing we've been doing internally for several months now, and make sure that there were no obvious, major issues with the core multiplayer functionality. We were able to conduct about 20 different races, with players from the USA, Australia, UK and Finland - and the results were really positive! Below is a short video showing a few of our races. You may be able to notice a few small glitches (such as a flying road cone or two), but by-and-large it's running nicely. This video is recorded by the host, and performance on the clients can be a little different, depending upon latency! [previewyoutube=jNhXevbzAg4;full][/previewyoutube] We'll be conducting the next multiplayer test this week (27.9.2024), to test out fixes to those small problems. From there, we will aim to finish the multiplayer UI, and then move on to expanding the tests. Stay tuned on Discord for more information about that!

GeneRally 2 is a friendly top-down arcade racing game - with an easy-to-use, built-in track editor. GeneRally 2 is the sequel to the 2002 classic, GeneRally - one of the most played arcade racing games of all time! Have fun racing alone against the AI; with your friends in "no split-screen necessary" couch PvP; or try your hand at creating tracks and sharing them with the world.

GeneRally 2 now in Early Access! If you want to find out more about the Early Access process, please read our developer blog post on the subject!

Experience a wide variety of fun and interesting tracks created by us, by the GeneRally 2 community - or make the perfect track for you in our track editor. With 60+ objects (and more being added all the time); 12 different surface types (from dirt and gravel, to snow and ice); and a feature-packed terrain-editing tool - the only limit is your imagination! Upload your creations to Steam Workshop and share them with the world. You can even import tracks from GeneRally 1 directly into the game!
Race against the clock (and the ghost car) in time-trial; against the AI; or with friends in couch PvP (online multiplayer coming during Early Access). There's no need for split screen - the whole track is visible at once - so grab your friends and family, and get racing! Compete in single races, or see who's victorious over multiple races in championship mode. Up to 8 players can play together on the same computer.
Customise your car and stand out from the crowd - adjust the colours and paint scheme for you and every car in the race.
Detailed car physics take account of many different real-world parameters like drive-train type (FWD/RWD/AWD), suspension travel/rebound, weight distribution and more! The cars are easy-to-learn but hard-to-master, based on a realistic physics simulation.
Plan your pitstops and manage your fuel, tyre wear and damage over the course of the race - or turn all of those off and enjoy unlimited ability to run your friends off the road!
With a variety of different cars (5 at launch, more coming later), each with their own unique performance and handling characteristics, there's never a dull moment.
Tweak the AI opponents for closer racing - choose between multiple driving style "profiles" and adjust their skill level to battle for victory.
