r/supercross

Made a teaser for the supercross mode in my PS1-style motocross game. Bike handles differently in SX than in outdoor racing. Thoughts? (WIP)

I posted my game here recently, DüRT: Motocross Championship, and the response to the supercross side pushed me to keep building it out. So I put together a short teaser for the supercross map and its mechanics. This is where it is at right now.

One thing I want to call out: the bike does not ride the same in supercross as it does in normal outdoor motocross. In SX mode it runs at different speeds and the turn response is tuned differently, tighter and more deliberate, so the rhythm sections and tight indoor corners actually feel like supercross instead of just a smaller outdoor track. Outdoor racing keeps the faster, more open handling. They are meant to feel like two different disciplines, the way the real thing does.

It is still very much a work in progress. I am going to keep adding jumps to the empty stretches, and the sides will get proper stadium props, hay bales, stands, banners, that kind of thing.

Since this is an arcade game, it is never going to be one hundred percent real supercross physics, and that is not the goal. The goal is for it to feel fun to ride while still reading like supercross.

What I would love your feedback on:

Does the SX handling idea sound right to you, or would you expect it to feel different from outdoor in other ways too? Do the map layout and rhythm read like real supercross so far? And anything you would want to see me add to make it feel more like a stadium round.

Every bit of feedback here actually goes into the game, so let me have it.

Hunter & Haiden

Hunter is obviously extremely fast however, after yesterday’s race it got me thinking:

If you put Hunter on that Yamaha and put Haiden on that Honda, would the results be the same?

What are Hunter and Lewis talking about in this post-RedBud interview?

Starts at 3:39. I know Lewis and Hunter love to engage in playful banter (e.g. left-handed screwdrivers), but this one seems like there's a truth?

Redbud Stolen Items

Whoever at Redbud stole my two brand new Mototees chairs that I just bought today, my brand new FMF umbrella, my Monster drawstring bag with my ponchos, 2 sets of clothes, sandles, tampons, PRESCRIPTION GLASSES!!! my Pit Vipers (which are scratched anyways so 🖕🏽)contact case, my tanning lotions, my Star Wars cooler(that was pretty gross by the way) with my energy drinks, my FMF tumbler, and beef jerky which was all was VELCROED to the chairs in the infield by the leap in front of the REDBUD painted in the grass - I hope you you choke.

The one thing I always loved about the moto community was that everyone respected each other and their things. 5 outdoor races and 8 Supercross races over the last 2 years and I have never had anyone touch my stuff until today.

If you were like me and trusted leaving your stuff for even a few moments - re-think that. Or get an AirTag and sew that shit into the stitching.

If you’re that person and you see this, or know who took my things, do the right thing and at LEAST give me my glasses back.

Thank GOD I didn’t take off my necklace with my mom’s ashes in it and put it in my bag. Or my car key. I almost wish my phone was in it so I could track it to some degree.

Today was a good day at my favorite place - I know things could be worse but damn, this sucks and my faith in the community has been heavily hurt. I thought we all looked out and helped each other - not stole from each other.

If I would’ve know leaving to get food and walk it back to the car after the race and before the gates closed would’ve costed me around $600 I would’ve said “forget the food”.

James Stewart on Jett during the race one broadcast

You can tell Jett is frustrated with his riding today. As soon as he got off the bike, you could hear him yell, "My fucking foot."

During the broadcast, James said the same thing I've been saying: Jett only being able to train on the bike one day a week is showing. He doesn't have the endurance, he doesn't have the feel for the bike, and he doesn't have the bike set up properly. Hunter being able to pull away from Jett shows what a full camp can do for you on the track.

Jett is basically fighting the bike and his foot. During his interview, he said he can't ride the way he wants, and it shows.

He better get his emotions in check before race two.

Any Canadian Motocross fans here?

If so, where are you streaming live or is it following the next day kind of thing. Fox Sports Racing is supposed to have it but for some reason I can never locate when it’s broadcast.
I read somewhere that Ryde TV was merging over to Flo but I’m not sure about that.

Mudder

When’s the last time we had a Mudder?

Tomorrow’s forecast at Red Bud looks like a coin flip.

Mudder’s tend to open doors for some of the slower riders?
