When is 4 player split screen coming?

[Clean&Clear]

Hey guys,

I've been away from the forums and partly from the game for a while, so I don't know if there is any info out on it, but do you know when 4 player split screen is roughly supposed to come?
I know it's definitely not a top priority thing, but it's something I'm awaiting pretty eagerly so we could finally add Grip to our couch gaming party games list with my friends.

Hey C&C

4 player split screen won't be for a while. There's optimization to do there and it's pretty low priority. It will happen though!

Hi, maybe it is not too soon to ask for an update for this feature?
Do you guys have a timeframe in mind yet or ...?

It is already in the newest build

Strange. I am on build 876233 and I dont see it.
Is that a beta build that requires some other type of access (participation code).
I am one of the early backers so I'd imaging it should be available to me.

It should be only working in the private branch since 1.2.9 doesn't have working online multiplayer.
Here is the entire announcement copied from the discord server

For those of you who want to play the latest version (minus multiplayer), it's up on the "PRIVATE" branch. password for the branch is:
SnarSn4r5n4r

Just right click GRIP in Steam, properties, betas, input the above code and then switch to the PRIVATE branch in the drop down menu

I'll be writing up a proper changelist at some point. Just swamped with other dev stuff right now

Here's the biggest changes:

-Greatly improved vehicle physics and collision
-Vastly improved menu with full gamepad support and additional functionality in the garage
-Greatly improved arena mode and AI, plus an additional arena on Jahtra
-Improved current tracks visuals and flow/collision
-New custom tournament creator allows you to create your own tourneys
-4 player split screen supported, including ability to have one person on keyboard
-bunch of stuff I'm forgetting

There are bugs, indeed. So be sure to post them in the bug reports channel!

Hope you enjoy!
