addedLeaderboard ResetAs we iterate over new road changes we need to ensure leaderboard entries stay relevant; because of this we have reset the leaderboards. Please keep in mind we will likely be resetting leaderboards at least once more before Final Release, thanks for your patience!
changedLeaderboard RankingsMany of you requested a way to get an overview of your Leaderboard rankings, we tried a few different things and eventually settled on a 'Ranking View' that displays the percentile you're in for each Campaign Level, giving you a clear indication as to how you're placed within each Leaderboard compared to the total number of players. Access via Leaderboard>My Ranks on the World Map.
addedIn-Game GalleryThis patch also introduces a new in-game Gallery browser accessible from the Main Menu, and is also used to display the replays associated with a Workshop item, which you can open with the 'Community Replays' button in the Workshop browser. You can now easily filter by level, show only your own replays, the replays of your Steam friends, and any replays associated with a specific user. If you want to share a replay that you find in the in-game Gallery a convenient 'Copy Link to Clipboard' button is available.

New Road Changes

As you may be aware we made some fundamental changes last week to how the roads are simulated, which resulted in introducing a new mechanic: reinforced roads. We've spent the last week tweaking values and improving the reliability of road simulations.

Leaderboard Reset

As we iterate over new road changes we need to ensure leaderboard entries stay relevant; because of this we have reset the leaderboards. Please keep in mind we will likely be resetting leaderboards at least once more before Final Release, thanks for your patience!

Leaderboard Rankings

Many of you requested a way to get an overview of your Leaderboard rankings, we tried a few different things and eventually settled on a 'Ranking View' that displays the percentile you're in for each Campaign Level, giving you a clear indication as to how you're placed within each Leaderboard compared to the total number of players. Access via Leaderboard>My Ranks on the World Map.

Leaderboard Banlist

We're actively monitoring the leaderboards and banning players that hack or cheat their entries. If you see any values that look suspicious, please let us know. We want to ensure the leaderboards stay challenging and valuable for everyone to compete in.

This patch also introduces a new in-game Gallery browser accessible from the Main Menu, and is also used to display the replays associated with a Workshop item, which you can open with the 'Community Replays' button in the Workshop browser. You can now easily filter by level, show only your own replays, the replays of your Steam friends, and any replays associated with a specific user. If you want to share a replay that you find in the in-game Gallery a convenient 'Copy Link to Clipboard' button is available.
