Sense to make maps in a ShootMania, if they can be checked only on the server? Where solo? Where bots? Boring...

I guess that answered my question.

Valley isn't ready

[jonthekiller]

It's not the same than 2009. The car and gameplay are on Canyon now for example.

then I miss MANY blocks from that trailer in Canyon... like wide tunnels, tunnles with much light, road loops, etc.

We might see some in Valley.

Regarding new blocks, I have asked Hylis recently, after he created a topic for short questions and short answers:
forum.maniaplanet.com/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=13389&start=0

- will there be new blocs for Canyon, others than the new tunnels?

None is forseen actually. I rather count on import of objects to vary starting there.

- same for ShootMania Storm, many people want to place blocs in the air or make some kind of bridges or archways, without being forced to use terraforming or stone parts below

Since it is a first environment, we are opening the mapping possibilities slower, but yes, we are working on other blocks.

- the blocs seen in the official screenshots of Storm make thing there are more blocks than actually available, even if in TrackMania and TM² Canyon you always did - if I can say so - a kind of running gag to always show a block which is never released

This is a habit due to our method to define the best blocks. We often create more blocks than you can see.

I was always wondering why the previews of TM2 shown in the Valley, and released the game Canyon (So when will release the Valley?)

[Omnixor]

Nadeo thought that it will be better to release Canyon first, so they generally just remade that Valley a bit (other textures, etc.). the new Valley should come in the end of this year/begin of 2013.

But wasn't their plan to release the envis between 6 or 9 months?

[Omnixor]

it was, but it failed. after storm (which is PLANNED to be released this autumn) next envis SHOULD be released faster.
