G'day mate!
As it stands right now, I'm still hanging around here for a long time, hoping to god that some brand spanking new update will come to the MTM2 Community Patch one day, it's just a shame that the sim addicts have since left this community and moved on to Sim and Beam Monsters that offer addons for both Rigs and BeamNG, both of which offer no sort of fun to me whatsoever. MTM2 will always be the best monster truck game ever made for me, the simple simcade with a touch of realism, while primative, yet enjoyable physics, as well of a lot of truck and track addons that really make MTM2 stand out more than any other monster truck game made ever since. God forbid one day I'll be a disgruntled old man hanging around here, and there's still nothing new for the Community Patch till then.
Now, I'm not going to be a pest to anyone here to foresee the next big thing for the Community Patch, whether it be real life issues, or other issues surrounding the current source code, but by crikey, I'd give anything in this world right now to see the resumption of this great game into something even better than what TRI intended.
My ultimate dream, see the MTM franchise rebooted for the modern era, both with a new game with the modern day technology, and a rerelease known as "Monster Truck Madness Classic" with both MTM1 and 2 remastered for the modern day PCs, with all the best bits from both games, and just about everything else that was intended with the Community Patches, like the complete revival of MTM1 Drag mode into MTM2, and Cale's remastered HD trucks.
As a hardcore monster truck fanatic since I was a little boy with all the VHS tapes and toys, it's something I'd would die for.
