This Wednesday, August 4th at 2:00am (Pacific Time), the ModNation Racers Title Update 1.02 goes live improving many of the issues the community has been concerned about. On behalf of UFG, we want to thank everyone for supporting ModNation and being patient as we’ve worked hard to make it the best experience possible. If you didn’t see the patch details on the IGN last Friday, here is a run down:
Update: Title Update 1.02 for ModNation Racers unfortunately introduced an issue that affects online XP Races and XP Series. We’ve identified the cause and are quickly working on a solution to resolve the issue. We intend on updating the ModNation Community on the release of this fix as soon as possible.
Load Time Improvements
While there are still loads, you will see decreases in load times throughout the game.
New “Casual” Difficulty Mode
We’ve added a “casual” difficulty setting in the options screen.
Challenge friends in XP Series
We’ve added the ability to invite your friends to XP Races & Series.
No more “Hot Lap” Cheaters
We fixed a bug that allowed players to cut the track and post unbeatable times in Hot Lap.
Get into Online Races Quicker
Along with improved load times, we’ve removed the online game room from the ModSpot so you can get into the race faster.
Improved Server Stability
We’ve addressed issues to improve intermittent disconnects that players were experiencing.
Three Challenges now more attainable
We wanted to provide you challenges, but didn’t want to sacrifice fun. We found 3 challenges that proved extremely difficult and changed the conditions to complete them. This includes:
- Devastator takedown on Wild Run
- Devastator takedown on Modobahn
- Sideswipe 3 opponents on the cliff side on Fracture
The Tin Bucket Unlocked!
Finally this is an item is unlocked and available to everyone by default.
Collector Card Improvement
Now see all player creations in their entirety.
Improvements to ModNation Racers don’t stop here, we are still constantly listening to the community and are committed to making ModNation Racers one of the most enjoyable experiences you’ll have on your PS3.
New features on Community.ModNation.com
We added features to the Community site Community.ModNation.com to make the experience better too, including:

But, on the bright side, you’re in Europe.

i’ll go for the third or fourth drake code?

ok everybody go for the 3rd ratchet code
:'( So sad.
Woooo, just got the Drake code too to complete my collection (got R&C when I pre-ordered). Thanks Ramone and UFG!
My question got answered!! This is offically the BEST PATCH EVER for a game!! MNR here I come…again!!
I’ll give out the last batch sometime after 3:00pm (PST)
so close
Awesome update. This game’s the best its genre.
Wow people are quick, I was even on the redeem page on box 1, ready to put in the code :o
its alraedy 300th post i think there out. put me out of my misery. :(
Posting the single-use codes is fun and all…for those who aren’t sneaking a peak at the site while on break at work. It will be nearly six hours before I’m at my PS3 — any chance for some codes then?
You guys need a new distribution option, like a code that’s valid for 12 hours for as many people who want to use it, and then expires. You may not get 7+ pages of comments on your threads, but you’d have happier customers.
Although I suppose it’s rude to complain about free.
Congrats to those who are lucky enough to slip in! At least I got my Ratchet and Clank back when the game came out (and if you want a nice car to go with each character, check out my profile for a RatchetMobile and a ClankRocket).
Noo…. :'( :'( I missed R&C again…
I have a Kratos one I’ll trade for Ratchet and Clank!
Rand C is impossible to get lol
so its ok to leave
again taken damn i have a feeling i wont have a chance at ratchet :(
oh poo. i read the wrong box and got a kratos code anyone want it?
R&C are hardest cause that’s what most people want :P
ratchet goes soooo fast
Please send out double R&C codes D: they seem to be going out the fastest Dx
:(
I give up. See you guys around for the next batch in the afternoon! LOL
I still can’t get ratchet and clank and I’m not sure why. I mean I enter the codes pretty quickly.
Darn, missed them again. :( Atleast I got Drake.
hmmmm why still getting errors????
this is great and all but I am getting upset over the errors.
I keep going to a new one when I get an error but just get more errors. :/
Man, I shoulda whipped out my keyboard for this.
Controller-typing these codes is hectic.
By the way guys, copying and pasting the code into the Redeem page on playstation.com is 1000x faster than trying to do it through your PS3.
@368 I’ll take it!
Amazing no one pre order from amazon for rachet and clank. I wonder why?
HE IS JUST SAYING AFTER 3 BUT REALLY MEAN IN 3 MIN
yay badnewsliar u got one!
*blows on the dice* Come on…..DRAKE!
THANK YOU SO MUCH Russell, i’ll stay here until 3:00.
miss Nathan again! god! That’s twice now that i had it fail on me after it showed me i got the code.
all right. I guess i’ll be back at 6pm est GL all!
I hope everyone forgets about Ratchet and Clank DLC so then later at 3:00, I have no competition LOL
It’s just a fantasy. But thanks for the codes. I shall see you guys again later. I’m starving. LOL
wait you didn’t release the last of the drake codes BEFORE the last batch at 3pm!
@377
