How are the load times?

They are ok, not as good as LBP though. It loads on the pod screen and then loads again on a loading screen if you get me?


better than MNR?  load times is really the one and only thing that will keep me from buying so this is very important to me.


MNR could have been such an awesome game, but those 45+ seconds loading times completely killed that game.

i was talking to a friend and we came to the same conclusion ... we both kept replaying the same track over and over and over again just to avoid load times.  the gameplay was soo amazing but it just was too frustrating to keep playing.   ..so as long as unitedFront can address that i'm completely sold.


Correct me if I am wrong, but aren't UFG developing this game in conjunction with MM?

That alone makes me a bit optimistic.


I do think MM is helping them out. I also think Studio San Diego is part of the team

I believe MM is doing their own thing, so I dont expect this to be anything stellar im afraid :(.

Trying the beta now.. thoughts will be up later.

P.S. Ive never played a kart game aside from some random mario kart on a friends gamecube when i was a kid ages back. Barely remember it xD.

I've counted the load times lol. From the Pod to a race it takes about 20-23 seconds. Going from one level to another takes about 20-23 seconds To replay the race you just played it takes about 4-5 seconds. So the load times are about 1/2 what they were on Modnation. So that's good :p. Does what i've said sound about right to everyone who's played this and MNR?

yep I think you are on the money with those estimates Unit.

My favorite part are the battle portions...they are fantastic. Twisted metal like chaos

sounds good tbh i was a little on the fence about getting this since i have modnation but i might eventually trade in modnation for this

Oooh yeah. I actually wasn't even excited to try the battle parts but they are definitely my favorite. I can't wait to see what kind of battle arenas people will make when the game launches :D

i'm not sure "in conjunction" is the correct way to put it.  MM is sharing assets for sure but i don't believe it is co-development.  I think MM is probably about as involved in this as they are in playstation all stars (assumping sack boy is in the roster which is a no brainer to me)
