31 Октября Multiplayer Issues 
Speaking of multiplayer, we managed to get the network code much more stable, resulting in less lag. As a very welcome side effect, this improves the responsiveness of your car, making it easier to handle those tight corners and swift swerves. 
But that’s not all, oh no. Since the network code is now much robust, we are reintroducing 24-car multiplayer! That’s right, folks! 24 simultaneous cars, duking it out, no moves barred! 

To be honest, we’re really happy of how Wreckfest’s multiplayer is shaping up! The multiplayer races, packed with tight and dirty situations and crashing cars, are really fun, and the work we’ve put into making the crashes more visceral really shows and feels. You can also host your own events with much better stability, and e.g. use the reworked lobby chat to lay down the rules to your opponents. We also added a ban function, so you can not only kick unruly players out, you can keep ‘em out! 

However, there are some issues still present, and much more work needs to be done before we are satisfied. That’s why we have released several hotfixes during the past few weeks, addressing issues and squashing bugs like nobody’s business. 
24 Октября Hotfix Update 
• Fixed camera getting stuck to the side bug. 
• Support some more exotic characters in player names. 
• Added KM/H / MPH speed display toggle to Display Settings. 
• Added show / hide player names toggle to Display Settings. 
• Show per-class best lap time in event selection. 
• Fixed multiplayer bug: remaining time not updating in results window when spectating. 
• Fixed multiplayer bug: if the race started when player was in the game or settings menu, the mouse got hidden, thus making it hard to close the menu windows. 
• Reworked lobby chat, includes scrollbar 
• Improvements to joining handling 
• Improved client-side prediction 
14 Октября Hotfix Update 
• Fixed several rare crashes. 
• The popup for wrong password is now correctly displayed. 
• Quick look-back camera now works with separate wheel/pedals setup. 
• Speedway loading screen image is now displayed correctly in multiplayer. 
9 Октября Hotfix Update 
The hot fix battery keeps on hammering! We have just updated the game with a yet another hot fix that should address the issue with the game often freezing in the loading screen when trying to join a server. A couple of other minor issues have been fixed as well. 
• The game no longer freezes into the loading screen when joining a server. 
• Cinematic camera is no longer always targeted to the host in multiplayer. 
• It's no longer possible to drive around in lobby. 
8 Октября Hotfix Update 
We're pretty confident the connectivity issues are now resolved, so we're rolling out the latest hot fix increasing multiplayer stability and addressing a few other issues found. We're monitoring the situation, so in case you experience any issues please do let us know. 
• Improved disconnection handling. 
• The client no longer occasionally loads a different track than the host. 
• Sending a chat message with just one SPACE no longer causes the previous message displayed to be duplicated. 
• Implemented general server browser improvements. 
• Improved client side prediction. 
• Improved low-end engine performance. 
• Reduced audio levels globally. 
Update 179795 
We have just rolled out a hot fix, fixing a couple of critical issues found in the latest game version: 

Players are now disconnected properly and not showing up in the next game as ghosts. 
Stability control assist now works properly in multiplayer; other assists disabled for now. 
Repeatedly clicking on servers in the server browser no longer crashes the game. 
Countdown to multiplayer lobby no longer freezes to two seconds after a race. 
The lobby status (RACE IN PROGRESS) is now shown in the server browser. 
Amount of players in a single lobby is limited to 18 pending further optimization. 

The latest game version is not compatible with the previous one, so please do update your game before playing multiplayer games. If necessary, please log out and then back in Steam to start the update process. 

9 июля Hotfix Update 
The latest update for Next Car Game is now available, change log below: 
• Added Sandpit1 alternative route, both normal and reverse layouts. 
• Increased steering angle and retuned controller settings. Especially gamepad and keyboard controllers should be more responsive now. 
• Retuned all cars and suspension setups so that the cars would behave more realistically - with most suspension setups the cars now have a tendency to understeer while cornering unless grip is lost, at which point the cars will exhibit oversteer. However, except for the most extreme situations the oversteer should be manageable. In many cases different suspension setups now also have a significant effect on the car handling, so be sure to test them all to find your favorite! 
• Increased tarmac and gravel friction. 
• Reworked Stability Control profiles; the Full setting has more strength now while the Half setting should only counter for most serious errors by preventing from spinning out. 
• Retuned brake balance for all brake kits to tame the tendency to spin out when braking while cornering. 
• Implement a three second no-collision cooldown period for resetting the car. 
• Increased player advantage in car-to-car collisions. 
• Increased side and back strength for a number of vehicles. 
• Increased wheel strength for 01_American (American Muscle) to prevent it detaching too easily. 
• Reduced deform strength in minor impacts. 
• Added a few aggressive AI profiles to the pack. 
• Added Look Left and Look Right camera controls support for keyboard. 
• Removed the obsolete Reverse Camera keybinding, should fix cases in which the Look Back button was not working when Reverse Camera was binded. 
• Fixed an issue in which the vehicle strip in garage was out of screen boundaries when using extreme wide resolutions. 
• Reduced vertical size of the launcher window to make it fit nicely on certain laptop screens. 
• Set V-Sync to disabled by default. 

As always, we'd love to hear your thoughts on the update!
