New Patch and Downloadable Content Coming for MotorStorm

MotorStorm has been one of the flagship titles for the PlayStation 3, despite lacking severely in the depth department. On the bright side, it has received a lot of love in the downloadable content space, and will be once again later this month when two vehicle packs are released on the PlayStation Store, in addition to the Revenge Weekend download pack that should be available soon. There aren’t any specific details regarding pricing or contents of the new DLC, but in the meantime you can play around with the new patch for the game, which went live yesterday.The patch included the following changes:

• Vehicle Select enhancement – your last-used vehicle in each class will now be presented as the default choice during vehicle selection.
• Assigned player colours are now displayed in the lobby to make keeping track of your friends and rivals easier during online races and Eliminator matches.
• Further Player-Stat Improvements.
• Purchasers of ‘Coyote Revenge’ can now race this track in Online and Time Attack.
• Purchasers of Eliminator Mode will find results from this mode also contribute to their Fame Ranking.
• Track Exploits for Grizzly and Raingod Mesa have been addressed.
• Headset support – An occasional firewall conflict with headset communications has been resolved.
• Headset support – voice comms output now available exclusively through headset.
• Many other improvements and tweaks throughout the game.

It’s good to see MotorStorm still getting downloadable content. It’s a great way to keep drawing gamers back in, and sets a positive precedent for future releases.
