Thanks for your comments & yeah, we’re pretty excited around here, too!
> I saw some corner barriers in the video, will these be available as extra's…
Yes, we'll have a number of optional accessories as part of our fall lineup, including a Rails Kit and Corner Kit—particularly helpful when experimenting with Boost, lol.
> I still hope the cars will come in their own charger box,...
Both charger types are cross-compatible with all of our cars. However, the individual cases will only be sold with the 2014 cars, sorry. If there’s a high demand for them, that would likely change our tune!
> I would like to see an ability to have more than 2 add-ons at the same time - so have 2 weapons and a shield or a weapon, a shield and a tractor beam for example.
It sounds like you might be asking for 3 items on the screen at a time, which is definitely a challenge, due to space constraints on smaller devices. However, for anyone reading this who may not know, you can swap weapons as many times as you want during a game. (See below.)
> and would very much welcome an invite to the beta
For all those interested, the first step is to join the private beta community at beta.anki.com. Then please be patient—it will be quite awhile before we’re ready to send out kits to beta testers. Due to high demand, most people won’t get in (sniffle, we wish we didn’t have to be the bad guys here). To increase your odds, it will help to fill out as much of the profile and platform sections as possible. Honesty counts—we’re always looking for a variety of households.
Good Qs! Thanks for your post.
How to use multiple weapons and/or support items during a game
The same system applies to the Support items—just make sure you purchase a Support slot instead of Weapon slot from the Chassis.
On the controller, the top right box is always the weapon. The bottom right is always the support item. The only exception is with Corax: its Support item slot can be used for both, sweet. :)
