Also on Kickstarter, which is seriously lacking reach at the moment (even I only heard about it now...)

Their KS plan makes no sense, since they said the game will happen regardless of the KS failure. But they won't get any of the money pledges if (and when) it fails.

And too bad they are going to make another flat out again, I'd rather have another Rally Trophy.

Yeah, me too - Rally Trophy was such a great game.

 

[J_C]

+1 for Rally Trophy. Although better to get another Flatout than nothing.

I guess this just proves that there is no more market for "car games" any more. Which is pretty sad, FlatOut2 is still a game I load up when I am sufficiently drunk. And nothing in the same vein since then.

Hopefully at least CarmaR will be good.

There's a lot of market fot Car Game, just not enough quality titles doing interesting thing... I bet that (spiritual) sequel to "Need For Speed: Underground" would sell like fresh bread.

Spiritual sequel to Sreet Rod 1/2 would be grand...obviously with just old cars like those two.

Ah, playing it on a Commodore 64, brings back memories.

 

[Outlander]

The guys that were making the fan-sequel Street Rod 3 should definitely launch a kickstarter.

...and KS cancelled. Probably smart thing to do, though still sad to see it go. Definitely the kind of game where extra polish is more than welcome.

They've released a playable "mini-demo" for preorderers though.

Destruction Derby or Carmageddon on that engine would be awesome.

Also here's Early Access Pre-Alpha Gameplay Preview by James Allen from Out of Eight blog.

Driving away from a 77km/h frontal crash, yeah, sure, looks legit.

Because Bugbear racing games are known for their uncompromising realism.

 

[DarkUnderlord]

"Next Car Game" has to the dumbest name for a racing game. Even if it is just a temporary name.

I prefer more destruction over more gamism. After so much hype regarding the crash physics, it's disappointing for me to see them holding back.

What's wrong with "Smell my smoke"?

 

[Haba]

Oh man, I went and got the tech test... This is the most demented thing I've seen in a long time.



20 cars into the big grinder, no drops in FPS - p. solid!

I've seen better damage model in Carmageddon 2.

Yeah, about this. Bullshit.

Yep. Still better than Next Car Game.

 

[adddeed]

Funny how a game from 1998 still has one of the best car deformation physics around. A few others come close: Codemaster racing games built with their (awesome) NEON engine - Grid, Dirt, F1 etc. Insane and CRC2005 by Invictus, the new Carma game maybe, and next car game.

 

[Grimwulf]

the new Carma game maybe

I'm sorry, what?

Edit: I mean, what game r u talking about?
