"We have Flatout 2 at home."
When I first got this game on Steam I thought it had a lot of potential. As far as the "vibe" goes it's the closest anybody has ever gotten to making a Flatout 2 successor, but unfortunately it has a lot of issues that the developers are unwilling to address because they don't rake in views on YouTube and Twitch as much as a 3rd person zombie survival shooter mode (for real) that nobody asked for. They're happy to accept feedback when it comes to which cars people want added in the game, but when it comes to quality of life or general improvements it's always lame excuses like "we can't spare the funds" or "it's too difficult". Whatever, here's short version since GOG can't spare the funds to increase the character limit either: Good: - The graphics are fine, about on par with most Unreal 4 games, though they don't really stand out in any way apart from the comically bad character models. - The driving and the crashes are actually quite nice, they feel pretty organic which is rare for modern racing games. - Decent car selection, reasonably varied. - Music is good, it's mostly royalty free bands like Onlap, but it's curated pretty nicely and fits well with the action. - Runs reasonably well. Bad: - Can't re-bind the controls, the director's excuse for this is that "it's too difficult to implement". (feel free to ask me for a source on that, GOG support) - Interface is horrendous, clunky and feels like it was designed with form over function. - The cutscenes and story are amateur grade, we're talking the type of stuff you would see in a bad Half-Life 2 horror mod, and I'm not exaggerating. Terrible even as far as racing games go. - Apart from the standard racing mode (and the basic derby mode) every other gamemode feels very out of place and poorly thought out, but with a strong visual element. It's very reminiscent of Yandere Simulator in that regard. - It crashes. A lot. - Track design is inconsistent, some tracks are way too long, others way too short. Avoid.
