Here we go with part 3 of June's Q&A session with the MotoGP 09/10 development team.
Part Three:
Online Modes: Will be there chat in the rooms? Private rooms? Both of them are necessary to organize championships and so on. We say: Yes and yes.
We want a PC version, pleasseeeee!!!! We say: We understand people out there want a PC version, but we’re currently focusing on the PS3 and X360 platforms first. We feel it’s important to nail the console versions. If there was a PC version, it would be to the determent of the main platforms and we just wouldn’t feel right serving something up that we are not happy with.
Will you support the modding as so many other successful games have done? We say: It’s hard to do modding on PS3 and X360, but we are currently exploring other ways in which the community could get involved. Once again, your comments and views on this topic are more than welcome.
Will we see the MGP Academy category in Career mode or as a kind of tutorial? We say: Not in this version.
Will be there IRTA tests, private tests and so in the championships or career mode? We say: You can do bike tests within the career mode, where you can test bike set-ups and experiment.
After you complete a season, will all teams and riders will be the same? Maybe a cool thing would be that in next season, some riders move from team to other teams, change their numbers and so. We say: We can’t reveal all our secrets at this stage, but stay tuned.
You know would be cool, start a dry race and then it starts raining in the middle of the race. This happens a lot in real life so will it happen in the game? We say: This is much more complicated that it sounds, but we are looking at this for future releases.
If the initial release has bugs, wrong or old skins, would we get an update or dc pack? We say: We cannot reveal any details yet, but rest assured these things are on our radar.
Sounds should be recorded from actual revs of the real machines and implemented into the game. Will this be the case? We say: We did indeed do a recording session at the Official MotoGP test in Jerez. These samples will be used in the final game for added realism.
Please keep your questions coming in by posting them here and we'll add them to July's Q&A session with the MotoGP 09/10 development team.
