When Burnout Paradise originally launched the game's community as a whole was rather divided, and many who decried the game hoped that Criterion would eventually patch in some sort of changed features. If you were one of those fanboys however, then you'll be disappointed come the end of the month (April 24) and the release of the game's next major AU. Game downloads have been given interesting names lately and Paradise continues the trend, handing their auto-update the totally unnecessary name of "Bogart." The list of fixes and changes is long and we won't list everything here, so you'll have to head on over to Criterion's dev blog.- Enhanced 360 streaming performance stops instances where the game seems to pause for a second or so.
- Fixed Head-on Takedowns as these seemed generally unfair and unrealistic. Unfair low speed Takedowns have been removed.
- Increase the # of search results returned for online games.
- Increase Picture Paradise timer so it doesn't kick in so quickly
- Fixed rich presence updating issues.
- Fixed some online race start points which started all the players facing in the wrong direction
- Fixed a drifting and boosting bug. There wasn't any real control on the brake so players would grind around the walls of the corners.
- And tons more.

I liked that picture paradise kicked in so quickly...the classical music and screensaver style idling was relaxing. And it didn't take any time at all to get back into the game if you so wished.

Definitely agreed. Picture Paradise was a nice little bonus to the game that I didn't even see until after I'd beaten it and was just playing around. I thought the timer for it was just right.
