The
Motorstorm version 3.0 patch has been released. In order to update your version of the game simply enter the "Online" section of the main menu. The update contains various bug fixes and feature improvements. The full patch list is as follows:
- Added vibration support for the DUALSHOCK 3 controller with adjustable settings
- Grid order has been randomised for first race in any online lobby
- Finishing positions in your last race now determine your starting grid position in the next race within the same online lobby.
- On-screen indicator has been added to show whether voice comms are issuing from TV or headset – As before, press and hold L1 (R1 if using control scheme 'B') to toggle headset output through TV or Headset.
- Sensitivity Settings for SIXAXIS™ Motion Sensor control have been added.
- Gloating Index' has been added to the Stats card – The Gloating index gives guidance as to a racer's online prowess. It takes into account the number of people you've beaten in each race and the number of people that have beaten you. Use the gloating index to spot the players to beat in each race! Try and rank your Gloating Index up to the perfect '10'!
- Several causes for an occasional snagging issue which would destroy vehicles on suspension impact have been addressed.
- Further fixes to prevent the occasional statistics reset issue have been applied.
- Fixed an occasional issue with inaccuracies in Eliminator finishing results.
- Fixed an issue where winners leaving Eliminator before race completed could cause issues for other players in lobby.
It's nice to see the
Motorstorm developers still supporting and upgrading the game, even almost a year after its original release. Though we're getting a bit annoyed at the recent release of Dualshock 3 support for games when we can't get our hands on them until Spring.

If there is a Motorstorm 2 coming it is in the best interests of Sony to keep current players playing...

Can you use a PS2 Dual-shock controller with USB->PS3 adapter to get rumble?

@Kspraydad: Well, Sony did buy Evolution (the makers of Motorstorm) and they've already said that the sequel is being made, so... yeah...

Does anyone know if the online community is still going strong for motorstorm?
I really enjoyed the demo, but being a more recent ps3 adopter I am kinda late to the party.

nook, you have to login at the right times. Usually weekends after 6pm is a good time. Weekdays are good too around the same time. But not as good as weekends.

So it looks like they're never going to introduce an offline multiplayer mode. Shame. Nook: I'll see you online!
