MULTIPLAYER MODESPUBLIC – allows online players to find open game sessions to join with other active players from around the world. Players pool together to start a game, but typically will not know each other. PRIVATE – allows online players to join a known game by using an invitation code they receive from another player (the Host), who is typically a friend, family member, or someone known.

|
PLAYER ROLE TYPESHOST – user who creates the game session (open lobby). Host is in charge of setting up game options (game selection, track, level of difficulty). GUEST – any user who is NOT the Host. Guest users do not have ability to change the Host’s gameplay settings. NOTE: the term “Guest” simply means all other users who join a Host’s game. It is NOT the same as using “Guest Mode” to train on XS1. It does NOT mean you have been signed out of your profile.
