Audiosurf 2 Skins

A totally whole new mode where you need to jump the waves and perform tricks while in the air

Workshop is enabled for Audiosurf 2 and it features custom modes created by other players

Audiosurf 2 will shuffle all songs on which folder directory it currently knows

No Idea how this works as I don't have a SoundCloud account, but apparently you can sync your SoundClound account and get music from there directly

If you have a nice collection of songs that has an album art attached to the metadata, then Audiosurf 2 will also load this the picture in the right hand side and render it in semi-opaque look

Audiosurf 2 will remember the songs contained in the folder that you previously opened/visited before so the next you open it, Audiosurf 2 will just look at the database file instead of reading the metadata again. Excellent feature to have especially for me since I store my music in a NAS drive and these NAS drives has a horrible ms delay and bandwidth to give you the needed data through the network.

No need to create a separate Audiosurf 1 account for leaderboards

Avatars are beside your name in the leaderboards. Although you can't click the picture yet and maybe check the steam account of that player and 'stalk' him 3:D

I really don't like this chance in Audiosurf 2. In Audiosurf 1, if you feel that there's not enough players playing a certain song, then dividing the leaderboards to each mode will even make the leaderboards like a post apocalyptic scenery.

In Audiosurf 1, you can still get blocks if you touch them in the side. In audiosurf 2, it doesn't do this anymore. This is a big advantage for puzzle players like me in fast and high trafficked songs. It's really easy to mess up and get unnecessary blocks when you can side-swipe blocks compared to not. The downside is, mono players often rely on this tactic so there's a seperate mode for mono called 'Mono Sideswipe' in the workshop

Apparently a lossless codec for Itunes and apple devices. Don't really know about them. But hey, more codecs to being supported is good amiright?

Some mods are already out there ready to accommodate 4 players simultaneously, this is seen in the control settings in Audiosurf 2

Audiosurf 2 requires you to have a internet connection to submit the scores, It won't record your scores locally if you play it on offline mode or failed to submit the score

Controller support is working when you are playing a song, but doesn't work in menus (A.K.A controller simulating mouse movements)

One thing that Pointman players and other puzzle players that want to know is traffic congestion, too much traffic congestions makes it annoying and hard to do a certain score. So you can avoid a song if you see that the traffic congestion is high or not upfront

Not yet properly working until powerups are implemented in mods

Most of the puzzle modes are in mods section, hopefully when the official modes is released, they are in scaling difficulty like in Audiosurf 1

No Achievements implemented yet in early access for Audiosurf 2

Web stat page is missing for Audiosurf 2, although I'm willing to bet that this will be connected to your steam profile instead

I've been competing with some of my friends and this will be a great feature if they did beat my score or not. Although this will be not that 'important' now since scores are divided every mode which is disappointing.
