ModNation Palooza Week Six
ModNation Keyword Creation Spotlight: “Happy”
People have been loving the new visual keyword search blog feature. The first week we had the spotlight on “Clowns” (if you can call them that). Last week we featured “Scary” which looking back we should have seen it coming… yes, a scary clown. This week we attempt to balance the nightmare scales with happy thoughts and that’s why our keyword this week is “Happy”.

Creations of the Week
Track of the Week
Journey to Mt Zion Abbey by Its2l84that
Mark: “One of the most impressive features of this track is the placement and use of shortcuts along many creative and unique paths. I found myself playing it over and over again just to see everything, and I’m still not sure if I did. This course will challenge your driving skills and require some 3Dimensional thinking during the race. Beautiful course! Great design. A+
Mod & Kart of the Week
Mod: Attack Chopper by Shelbot3001
Kart: Helicopter Landing Zone by Shelbot3001

Take the track discussion here :
http://community.eu.playstation.com/t5/ModNation-Racers-General/Hot-lap-Track-of-the-week/td-p/12720653
The blogs are a sort of landing zone for new and prospective modnation buyers, and the meant to be used to make quick comments, and ask questions about the content of the blog, not to be used as a medium of full on discussions, hence why you are limited in how much you can say in your comments.
@48
If you can check out some if my tracks, I try and put a lot of hard work into them, and they are never just made randomly. All my tracks are thought about before they are made.
Just to say everyone here should stop arguing, and get things straight! All we want to do is share our creations and have fun, so what if you don’t get hot lap or top tracks, just get up and try again until you do.
Mark?
I also have a suggestion, because if everyone is going to continue to argue about this track of the week thing, then maybe you should recognize two tracks instead of just one. It will allow others to be recognized for their time spent creating, and the superstar creators can still have their spot.
Hi,
Thanks for the idea.
Its not in any order but the tracks for Tues-Fri are the “runners up”. We all need to remember that the tracks chosen for Hot Lap and Track of the Week are from ones submitted to the forums. I would love to look at more but in fairness I only choose from tracks submitted. Same with Mods / Karts. They are also chosen from the ones submitted to the forums. If people want their creations to be seen in general (I would!) they can post them directly on our Facebook page.
We also have the tracks on Sat – Sun chosen from the community in an attempt to promote some great racks that have not been directly submitted by the creator. New and older tracks are welcome to be nominated.
Hope that helps.
Mark
