U.S. ELECTION NIGHTMARE SPECIAL
Play an adrenaline pumping bunch of game modes against AI opponents, or online against the rest of the Carmafan masses! Progress your Career through the Carma ranks or have a MultiPlayer romp in a Car Crusher, Fox 'n' Hounds (always been Stainless MP game session favourite!), Death Race or Checkpoint Stampede event - all frenetic fun, featuring Carmageddon’s trademark over-the-top violence, crazy PowerUps and non-stop laughs…
The Car Is The Star! Carmageddon: Max Damage features a wide and varied range of cool, crazy, custom killing machines; each with its own highly distinctive “character”. Carmageddon cars are specifically built for the job in hand – wrecking opponents and killing peds! Nearly 20 years ago the original Carmageddon invented the whole concept of videogame physics and real-time damaging of cars and scenery, and so it’s obviously been our responsibility to bring this technology BANG up-to-date with a brand new state of the art car damage (and repair) system. Crush, bend, twist, and completely mangle your opponents’ and your own car – smash parts off, or split it in two; the original game was all about wrecking motors and pummelling pedestrians, and today we take this to a whole new level! Power, Armour, and Offensive upgrades are available for your car, along with other customising options, allowing you to personalise the killing capabilities of your rides.
A host of old favourites from the original Carmageddon make a comeback, along with some all-new faces. Only ever seen before as low resolution mugshots, now you get to see them from head to toe (well, head to knees in the case of Screwie) in full HD 3D glory – usually as they smash through their windscreen and hurtle past (or INTO) yours!
The new environments are amalgamations of the best bits from the numerous chunks of landscape that we all loved to tear around in Carmageddon. “Bleak City”, "Devil's Canyon", “Dusty Trails”, “MagNuChem” and "Snowy" levels all return in updated forms, with their memorable landmark features such as the Loop ’de’ Loop, acid pits and Football Stadium. Everything is reassuringly surreal; hell, we’ve even managed to incorporate a giant food mixer into a level!
Once again, the game features a varied mix of adult pedestrians of all ages, shapes, persuasions and species. Classic pedestrians are back, such as old lady on a Zimmer frame and old man with his stick, with their famous cry “I was in the war!”, plus bikini babes and swimming trunk hunks, fat bastards, and herds of cows in improbable locations. Joining them are some new faces – including cyclists, wheelchair users and peds on mobility scooters. Carmageddon is an equal opportunities ped slaughterfest!
PowerUps are back and this time they’re even funnier, surrealier, hurtier, and messier than ever! Lots of the classic PUps return in super-enhanced form, such as Repulsificators, Kangaroos & Solid Granites. Then we have all new PUps like "Pelvic Thrust" and a variety under the heading “Tossers”! Combine PUps to create hilarious combo results like Groovin’ Helium Filled Peds, or Peds without legs at a Temporary Rapture!
Leaderboards. Challenge yourself to reach the top of the leaderboard using skill or brute force!
Achievements. A suitably warped array of mad Feats and Exploits will garner you the rewards that every gamer dreams of.
Challenges: Do the most stupid things, collect meaningless trinkets and waste hours of your life in the pursuit of ultimately pointless goals!
Smelly Bushes: We’ve hidden a variety of these specially fragrant Easter Eggs throughout the game to keep you busy and entertained!
CarMODgeddon: The whole game is MODdable for your MODding pleasure!

Best modern combat racing game
I love Carmageddon and specialy C2 ( Carmageddon 2 ) therefore I will compare this game with 2. version. [ + ] What I like: [ + ] This game is in my opinion best modern car combat or action racing game today. It have a fun and 100% feeling of the old Carmageddon games (1 and 2 version). [ + ] The maps are not so big compared to C2, but they are 100% used (as previous versions). While this is action racing game you can explore whole map and you can go anywhere. You will find powerups, Upgrade Tokens or special powerups like show all pedestrians on the map. Which is only one powerup you can't buy. You can spend lot of time exploring the map. [ + ] New modes and arenas (something like destruction derby, but it have different name). [ - ] What I don't like [ - ] Compared to C2 or any other car combat / action racing games, you will face only 5 opponents and few police cars. If you focus on destroying cars you can finish race quickly (because only 5 opponents), and when you get some prety big and heavy car it is matter of few minutes, [ - ] The maps are too small in my opinion. [ - ] Car damage is not bad, but I don't see improvement from Carmageddon 2. Even it looks like little downgrade. Cars damage feels like your car is build up with lot of tiny pieces and not from metal. In C2 you can see twisted metal when your car is hit and it is bended, while Max Damage you will see only texture change and shifted polygons to hit direction like in GTA 4. [ - ] Car handling is similar or same as previous C2. It is not bad but I don't feel a joy if I driving a car. For some cars it is suffering. [ - ] The game content is not big and when you finish a game you find there is not too much to do (if you not explore all maps and finish a game on 100%). In my opinion it is become boring cause too low opponents. It is more focused on pedestrians and map exploring (which is done good and it is fun), but for car action race I want same level as for those two I mentioned.
Is this helpful to you?
