2. Coop Lobbies
You are now able to play the tours and grand prix' together in online mode, with progress being saved for every player -> Meaning if 1 player gets medal 1, player 2 gets medal 2, that means in the end everyone will get both medals and it will save in their savegames. Same with grand prix' where stars are saved for all players. Furthermore you can play grand prix in competitive lobbies (8 players), but progress will be saved on a per player basis.
