Removing it before whatever replacement was ready was not a smart decision.. (This review was made as of the 0.8.1.24230 update)Trailmakers is a rather promising concept on paper. Being a fan of this strangely absorbing genre of "lego car builders", an interest that i can blame squarely on the botched third instalment to the banjo-Kazooie franchise, this game immediately stood out to me.Not sure if anyone remembers Nuts&Bolts. If you do, then i apologise for reminding you of it, but at least you have a solid grasp of what this game is already. for those not initiated, imagine those lego car sets that you could buy and put together, only those model cars now actually move around and have a pathological hatred for chickens. You can build land, air, sea and a mix of the three, with a lot of factors to take into consideration as you sculpt your lego masterpiece, such as aerodynamics, downforce, stability, traction, power, weight distribution, the completely nutty physics engine that disintegrates your car for no reason, all that good stuff. It's a pretty robust system of game mechanics, and i can't wait for most of them to actually start working properly.So, you've built your lego car. what can you do with it? Well... errr.... not much, to be honest. The game is split into four separate game worlds, each with a different purpose... in theory. There's the sandbox map, where you can drive around, the Danger Zone area, where you can... drive around, and the racing area, where you can... drive... around. Huh. The race area has a host of "races" for you to compete in, but they're all time trials, where you race against ghosts of other players' best times on the course. it gets boring very quickly, and #1 is, of course, always taken up by someone using a bot or script to drive for them so their time's unbeatable, leaving you to waste your time competing for 4th place, because 2nd and 3rd are also bots who just aren't as fast.There was also an expedition mode, where you build vehicles out of parts you find lying around to tackle certain environment-based puzzles. unfortunately, that was scrapped and replaced by a series of repetitive race circuits against AI. Flashbulb's reasoning for this was that expedition was too hard to support, and they have an "exploration" mode in the oven, but how that will turn out remains to be seen. all we have currently is two sandbox maps, a sandbox race map, and a race map that you can't explore and mess around in.The overall problem is that they've made a vehicle-builder, but they've failed to add much that you can do after the vehicle has been made. the maps are all incredibly small, with emphasis on off-road cars, planes and boats, with barely anywhere to test out your 2fast2quick race cars.They seem to think that the lack of horozontal axis can be solved by a vertical axis, so both sandbox and danger zone are hilly and mountainous, with little in the way of actual exploration. The first step to fixing this would be to just merge the danger zone into sandbox. other than performance, i see no real reason to separate what are just the same kind of map but in different flavours. stick 'em together and at least i don't have to sit between two loading screens to swap between them.What this game is crying out for is simply much larger maps. if you were to get a boat or plane and keep going in a single direction on any of the three maps, you'd find that the actual size of the map is simply massive, but only a small portion has anything of actual value in it, so it appears possible to add more land, at least from a game engine perspective. One idea a map dedicated to each basic flavour of vehicle, like a ravine or fjord for planes, an oceanic map with underwater caves for boats and submarines, and some actually lengthy race tracks for both on-road and off-road vehicles respectively.This game also has an online mode. you start up a server, choosing from the race area, the danger zone, sandbox or a fourth map that manages to be even smaller than my IQ, and then you just mess around on it with other people present. normally, incredibly annoying people that will attack you relentlessly and bombard you with racial slurs. unless you're playing with friends on a password-locked server, i wouldn't bother.The game looks pretty nice for something in early access. that sounds like a compliment, i know, but be aware that, to get the full graphical experience, you need to be on the highest settings. The newest update (at time of writing) added a rather surprisingly deep advanced graphics options menu, with a lot of control over a lot of things, up to and including shifting certain processes between CPU and GPU, which helps if your system is a tad lop-sided. However, if you're not on modern hardware, and i mean hardware you wouldn't expect needing for this game, you're going to see a lot of ugly, reduced textures and terrible lighting. Overall, performance is still in need of some optimisation. Even on my extremely modern hardware, (i9 9900K + GTX TITAN XP, are you jealous lads?) there seems to be a lot of lag spikes, microstuttering and, on a couple of occasions, just random freezing as the game struggles to keep up with you. Granted, it's in early access and the devs did release a patch a short while ago that helped mitigate these performance issues, but another go-over wouldn't hurt lads, if you're still showing symptoms, you need to keep taking your medicine.All things considered, i mostly equate this game to an incomplete Sunday dinner. It's got the Sausages, Bacon and Beef of an impressively in-depth lego car-builder, but it's missing the mash potato, carrots, peas and grilled tomatoes of content tailored for said cars, and what you're given feels more like a holdover until something of actual substance is added. given the choice, i'd wait for the exploration update to drop at the very least before making a final decision on this game. it's starved of content, and hopefully, what flashbulb have cooking might make the difference. Guess we have to wait and see.C'mon lads, don't disappoint us.. Very good game! I do not know why people would want to hate it.. I don't want to lie here. Trailmakers is not perfect, it has many issues with unstable servers, sometimes wonky physics\/destruction physics and lots of bugs. but that has pretty much every sandbox game to some extent, especially when in early access. but Trailmakers doesn't need to stand out in that regard because it has some other things that make it unique and fun to play. that said I will list some of my personal experiences that I got while playing the game.first of it is really easy to get into thanks to its simple building mechanics and low level of skill Required to build stuff like a functional car or plane, but those same simple mechanics don't limit what you can do in any way(or at least most).Another thing I really like about the game is the "Logic blocks" they are as the name suggests logic related blocks like logic gates and sensors, they allow for some pretty awesome stuff if you know how to use them. (my favorite use is to make semi-automated vehicles)Some of the things I did\/don't like about Trailmakers are the servers, the servers are player hosted which is totally ok with me but even when running on a strong PC they seem to be pretty fragile. another thing about the servers is that the host does not have the option to kick players who are on his server, that can sometimes cause some really annoying situations where a player is being really annoying and you not being able to do something against that except to restart the server and risk him joining again. and then obviously the bugs but they are mostly just annoying and nothing major. (at least for me)And now for some neutral stuff, I personally like the new racing focus on the game but many people got a bit upset about it because, in the beginning, the focus was on open map exploration, but the devs listened and promised a new exploration mode for which i am really excited.And another thing i really like is how close the devs are to the community especially on the official Trailmakers discord server, they have a weekly live stream and talk on the discord really regularly. a very good game, you start out building mediocre things, but once you learn the basics you can make very good things, i love making animals, bionic vehicles, and other unique creations, and discovering new methods of movement is very fun. This game is motorized Lego in a nutshell. Unlike other complecated craft games, it's very easy to play. Keep in mind the game is still under development, so it's constantly changing! The developers are very friendly and they're continuing to try new things. The only limit is your imagination. Roadmap - Coming Soon(er or later)™: Let’s talk about some of the things that we are working on!We are a fairly small team working on Trailmakers, but we have big ambitions for the game. This week, I’d like to let you in on some of the things we are working on or have planned for the future of Trailmakers! Some are coming soon, some are coming later, and some are coming sooner or later.SUPER IMPORTANT NOTE: Some of these features are more speculative than others. Some are being implemented now, others are on the drawing board, and some might be scrapped if they end up not being fun. Treasure Hunt. Trailmakers 0.7.0 - BLOCKS! BLOCKS! BLOCKS!: Today we're launching a brand new and very awesome update for Trailmakers. As the name might subtly hint at, this update is a big batch of new blocks - 38 of them to be exact. New sensor blocks, aerodynamic blocks, a modular tube system and much more. It's not all blocks though! With the new multithreaded wheel, aerodynamic, and buoyancy logic, multiplayer performance should be better than ever. There's also plenty of quality-of-life changes and bug fixes in this update. Read the full release notes below.General. Trailmakers 0.6.1 - Logic Update is now live!: If you update Trailmakers today, you can try a brand new version with some great features. The major feature of this update is the series of logic blocks and a sensor block.

Development Update #5 - Wildlife: Wildlife in Trailmakers is something we have mentioned once or twice - in this development update, I’ll go into a bit more detail.If you have seen any videos or even tried the Alpha Demo of Trailmakers, you might have noticed some flying carrion birds in the sky. This is a sneak peek of what you can expect in the Early Access version of the game coming to Steam later this year.Johnni to the left, Rhino to the rightThe setting of Trailmakers is a somewhat-abandoned world repurposed to host a weirdly dangerous rally expedition. It’s only natural that the world has been re-inhabited after people left it behind. The animals may seem familiar at first, but they are not normal. Many of them are very large, and most of them are very aggressive. Trailmakers is set in a very hostile environment, and the animals play a central role in keeping you on your toes.“Turtle Power”Wildlife helps a lot to make the world of Trailmakers feel more living. We set out to make a game that feels new to every player, and unpredictable even when you have played it for hundreds of hours. One of the ways we are doing this, is by having these unpredictable creatures to encounter. Each of them will behave differently, serve a specific purpose in the world, and challenge your engineering skills. You might have to put some armor on your car to survive butting heads with a rhino!Land whale? Work in progress...Another really great side effect of putting creatures in the game is the subliminal hint it can provide. We noticed that when players first see the birds in the game, they seem to realize that flight is a possibility, even before they find wings for their vehicle. This works really well to teach players about aspects of the game without putting it in a tutorial. Show - don’t tell. Do you have any cool ideas for creatures we could put in the game? Leave a comment below :). Development Update #6 - Complexity is Optional: This development update is inspired by a forum post on the Steam Community Hub by a player called Coda. He asks “What level of control should we expect? When does physics go from a matter of making something fly for the fun of it, to micro-managing attack angles and points of force as a tedium?” It is a topic we are still discussing on a daily basis in the development team. It is at the very core of the game design. Trailmakers has been physics-based from the beginning which means we will always use somewhat realistic aerodynamics, gravity, weight distribution etc. At the same time, we want the game to be accessible for everyone, even if you have no prior experience with vehicle building games. Boop! A big part of the discussion boils down to a simple question: “What is the most fun?”. It’s not fun if an engineering degree is required to build a simple 4-wheel car - that should be easy. Soon after you do that, you want to try making something more complex like an airplane. If that only requires putting wings on your car, you are not being challenged. We want you to at least think about where you place the wings. Failing to build something the right way can be fun if the result does something hilariously unexpected. A helicopter without counter-torque is like a fidget spinner It’s very important that you can see what you did wrong, so you know what to improve. You see your car topple over all the time? Probably a problem with the weight distribution or center of mass. Helicopter spins your cockpit? Add counter-rotation. When you finally get it right, it’s satisfying like solving a puzzle. Coda wants to know to what extent our physics engine will challenge the player - how detailed is it? To answer briefly: It is more important to us that our in-game physics are predictable than that they are realistic. That being said, there should still be stuff to tinker with for players who want to fine-tune their creations. These things should just be optional. For example, right now in the Alpha Demo we have optional key mapping for mechanical parts. It allows some advanced sequencing, but is not required to complete the game. We hope we can make it impactful to actually bother with fine-tuning. Weight distribution - how not to do it Going forward in development, here are some design philosophies we use as guidelines: It should be simple to build something basic.It should feel satisfying to succeed in building something complex.It’s alright if it takes a bit of experimentation before you get it right.You have to be able to tell what is wrong when you build something that doesn't work.‘Predictable’ is more important than ‘realistic’.Complexity should be possible but optional.If you have a suggestion for a development update topic like Coda had, let us know in the comments!. Trailmakers 0.5.2 - Submarine is now live!: This is the second water-themed update for Trailmakers, and we call it “Submarine”. While the first water update, “Build-A-Boat”, was centered around surface-vehicles, this update is focused on the sub-surface. The list of changes might seem small, but once you try the new blocks you will discover just how big this update really is.General. Patch Notes - Trailmakers Alpha2 (0.3.1.9428): Happy holidays everyone! Here’s the patch notes for the latest update to Alpha2 (0.3.1.9428)!GeneralThe player character is no longer strapped into their seat tightly. They’ll lean into turns, jolt forward when braking and even fly out of their seat on large impacts. Safety first, kids!More basic Xbox One Controller support added. Now you can press B to repair, X to enter Build Mode, Y to enter/exit vehicle and A to activate the jets.

In short, you’ll need more speed to get airborne. Let us know what you think!(Changed) Propeller - It spins properly!Blocks now have LOD! Exciting!(Changed) Wheels - New wheel damping logic.BuilderWe removed the collider which prevented you from moving the camera underneath your vehicles when building! Builder UI has some new, improved icons!You can now directly input a speed number rather than use the slider!PerformanceWe’ve added and tweaked our LOD set in numerous places to help performance.Bug FixesApplied colliders to rocks and other things around the world.Fixed the King not dropping his crown upon death.Fixed the planet on the loading screen.Fixes to some of the earlier Ball Puzzles.Suspension Block is now displayed correctly.Better seat distance detection when trying to enter a seat.Fixed hinges not removing their joints upon being scrapped.Fixed one of the jumps on Jump Island.Some of the Quit to Main Menu errors have been banished. Some escaped.The stat screen that appears between Islands doesn’t display anymore when in Sandbox Mode.Fixed an issue in which the game would hang when trying to connect to a server that no longer existed.(Hopefully) fixed the crash which happened when Quitting the game.. Free Weekend!: Make sure you don't miss the Trailmakers Free Weekend later this month! EVERYONE is invited, as long as you sign up on http://www.playtrailmakers.com/open-weekend. The Open Weekend will be a stress test of the multiplayer game modes in Trailmakers. Only sandbox and multiplayer will be availabe, so if you are excited to try the Expedition, you will have to wait until the full game release on January 31st. Remember to invite your friends to join us in the weekend - or find new friends to play with on our official Discord channel[discord.gg].
