ExoCross News

We're happy to announce that ExoCross has now officially reached version 1.0 and is out of Early Access!

The physics have been completely revised, new game modes including AI races have been added and there is a lot of new content for you to discover.

Thank you all for your support and feedback from the very beginning!

All players who purchased the Steam Early Access version of DRAG: Outer Zones have automatically been upgraded to the completed ExoCross upon its release today.

DRAG Outer Zones players! If you’re in the Charlotte area, head to the NASCAR Hall of Fame on Tuesday night (9/26) to try out an in-development version of ExoCross during the eNASCAR Coca-Cola iRacing Series finale.

[h3]Changes from version 0.4.1.0[/h3]

• Fixed a freeze when exiting the game
  
• Improved the error messaging for matchmaking
  
• Updated the time server to fix the Special Event menu
  
• Add replayable Special Events with new leaderboards
  

Due to a recent business model change for our current server hosting provider, we have unfortunately been forced to temporarily disable online multiplayer racing support in DRAG.

We are actively working on a suitable multi-platform replacement solution, and we will restore online functionality once this new multiplayer implementation is complete. We do not yet have a specific time frame to announce, but we are committed to completing this work during the early access period prior to the game's upcoming official release.

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience, and appreciate your patience during this transition.

Updated both demo and full game!

[h2]Added ingame leaderboards[/h2]

You can now view the leaderboards directly in the game. The leaderboards not only shows which input device was used, but you can now load the ghost of another player.
There is also an option for friends-only leaderboards.



Added an ingame HUD element to the top right corner that shows which ghost is currently loaded.



[h2]Saving / loading your personal best ghost[/h2]

Your personal best ghosts are now saved and automatically loaded the next time you play the challenge or special event.

We reduced the ghost clearance so that you can better see whether you are slightly in front of or behind the ghost.



[h3]Added top-x% to global rank[/h3]



[h2]New Special Event 15 is on![/h2]

Special Event 15 has just started and runs until 9 March.
It has also been added to the selection of online qualifications.



[h2]Added metal ramps to online track variant A-4[/h2]

To give the track variant A-4 some special sauce, we added a few ramps. Now it should be possible to drive onto the oval in the first lap without the risk of collision. We look forward to playing this layout with you in the community races and will make improvements to it as needed.
