Activision and Bizarre Creations have announced today that their recently released Blur beta on the Xbox 360 will get its rank cap increased from 10 to 15, and a bunch of new content.
The update also comes with a selection of new cars, a new game mode, and a batch of bug fixes. Here's the list:
Bug fixes: (find the whole lot here)
- Bandwidth - Optimisations which reduce the amount of traffic being sent around the network, thus reducing any lag problems.
- Stability - Fixes for rare 'Dirty Disc' errors and rare game crashes.
- Connectivity - Prevent players trying to get into lobbies when they won't be able to see everybody, improving matchmaking times.
- Disconnects - We now show more informative messages when players are disconnected from game sessions.
- Host Migration - Fixed occasional random disconnects when migrating to a new host.
- Split Lobbies - Reduced the frequency of 'split lobbies' which were occurring occasionally.
New content:
- New Car: Corvette ZR1 (Class B)
- New Car: Koenigsegg CCX-R (Class A)
- New Mod: Iron Fist
- New Mod: Last Gasp
- New Challenge List: Demolition
The beta started on March 8 on Xbox Live and the game is set for release on PC, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3 starting on May 25 in the US and May 28 in the UK.
