Glad to see you're still here AKC12. I hope this MOD wasn't in vain because you did an outstanding job with how it's structured. I'm happy I was a beta tester for this, and glad you pinned the trailer.
I hope that future updates will also consider the general usability of the patch. I think the one area where unleashed failed is the casual approach to machine, examples being black bull and wild boar. I could easily play them without using tech on regular GX and perform well, in the casual sense, but in unleashed they are a nuisance to drive because of how reliant they are on tech to perform. I think this is a big issue especially for more casual f-zero fans who might try the mod out.
This is an intentional design choice on my part from the moment I began conceptualizing this mod that I won't back down from. I fully expected to get this sort of feedback. Certain machines will only shine in the hands of a skilled player. Machines are primarily balanced based on their potential with advanced techniques. My main goal for this mod is to have a diverse meta. The other main goal is to make every machine and part be distinct and unique. At the same time, there are plenty of other machines suited for more casual players, and I gave such machines a big boost on their stats so such machines can better compete against much more skilled players using the meta machines in a competitive environment. And in specific courses, those more casual machines are in fact the best machines for those courses. In short, Unleashed is a competitive machine rebalance mod. It aims to close the gap between the top machines and the bottom machines. And given the nature of F-Zero GX's physics and mechanics, unfortunately, this results in certain machines to be lackluster unless you are highly proficient in this game. Check out Emarcee's rebalance mods at Gamebanana for machines that are rebalanced without taking into account advanced techniques potential.

Still working on it. Final changes are almost all set. It's the stuff after that that will take a long while to finish
@@akc12 Does this mean I need to make one more Trailer for the final release and come out of retirement?
