I just got my access to this game after backing the $15 tier on Kickstarter. I'm a bit dissapointed that my PC can't run it, but then again, it's like 8 years old. The test map is fine, the old countryside map with the loop can go to less than 1fps if I hang out by the loop. I think it's all the cow AIs or something. I know they're going to port it to Mac, I just wish it was on that already, seeing as that computer is only a year or so old. (Plus, my PC could run Bioshock Infinite at a constant healthy framerate, so I imagine it's just they haven't optimized this game at all yet).

Pierson posted:Whoa, what, where'd you get that? I thought kickstarter dudes at $15 only got the game on release and not EA? Nope, we got it a week later, but we have it now. You should have gotten an email linking you to the Humble Bundle website. You click that link, or go to your profile and at the bottom of the page is a link for the game. Click that and you can redeem it into your library.

Do they have a RSS for the updates to the game? I'm just wondering how quickly this game gets updated, and what is updated at that time.

I was playing this yesterday, and besides the low framerate, I also noticed that the game has cards now. I got two Halfwit Harry cards before the toxic plant went to about 1 frame per minute, and I had to force quit the game.

Hatman101 posted:I'm offering the same thing but it'll have to be email as I don't have PMs. First to quote gets it. No one else? I'll take it, but I already have the game. I'm going to re-gift it, if that's alright. Or you can wait for someone to quote you who doesn't have the game yet. IUG fucked around with this message at 00:21 on May 15, 2014 |

Is there a way to see what's been updated besides these streams? I don't really want to watch a (normally) 2 hour stream for an update. And in this case I was at work when this stream went online.

So I see in one update they claimed to add the "Peds on Map" power up. Has anyone found this yet? I've been scouring some maps trying to find it. The one benefit is there's some neat areas in the levels I haven't seen before.

I have those Lee Grove tracks in iTunes, as the Mac version of the game had them as just audio tracks that you could play like any music CD. Track "01" is the data of the game, the rest is the audio. I assume the Windows version of the game was the same way.

Both brothers or just one?

Fine, so long they finish the game, and it's not buggy, I don't care. I'm not 100% confident that they can do that, since they keep skipping their live streams. But I'm not going to throw a poo poo fit that I'm now paying more for this game than the people who are getting it on sale now. Hell, getting the original first two games for free was nice, and not something listed from the Kickstarter.

LookieLoo posted:This game has been sitting on my wishlist for 6 months, and now after I've bought it I start to hear how unfinished it still is and that development might be stalled. I'm dissapointed but not surprised that it ended up like that. This is my old desktop's setup. It'll run, it'll be slow, and you need to turn down a lot of the settings, but it will play. Except for the chemical plant level sometimes. Load times are also a bear.

I finally started playing again now that it's in Beta. Are the cars made of paper now? Specifically, just my car? I barely make any profits on the races as I'm constantly repairing.

Songbearer posted:Just remind yourself that these cars weren't made for racing: They were designed for 5-star levels of collateral damage. I don't think they were even built for that. I went head-on with that BttF looking car in the first level (I'm still not making any money to get off this map), and I explode, he drives on like he hit a speed bump. I'm spending all my money on me being wasted by backing up into a building, and it takes me 5 minutes to destroy Val.

Back To The Future, the delorean car. I haven't seen the driver yet, so I didn't know if he looked like Marty McFly or The Doc.

Why does Screwie Lewie have to spend 10 minutes slamming into Otis when his car has no tires, and is smoking, to kill him? I was never this bad at the Carmageddon series before ffs.

King Vidiot posted:Otis's car has always been ridiculously resilient since the first game, I think that's fully intentional. The other day I was playing with Ivan's truck and I had Otis down to a twisted frame, no tires and smoke pouring out and I just could not wreck the bastard. Eventually I swallowed my pride and bought a bunch of anvils and it still took like 6 to finally wreck him. Maybe that's a valid reason, but at the same time, I'm tired of exploding three times in a row when my armor has been upgraded to level 3 at this point. Or a tire flying off if I brush another car. The game seems to make the opponents nearly invincible. I also have no idea how to use that powerup wheel in the bottom. Was there a tutorial? Once I get a powerup, I'm stuck with it, and I can't figure out how I'm supposed to assign something to the DPad. At least my FPS went up with the final version. Load time is about the same.

King Vidiot posted:The left and right bumpers cycle through collected power-ups Now I just have to work on why I explode so much and the others don't explode enough. I might switch back to Val's car, as that would at least rip off their tires. Screwie's car seems to have a plastic drill bit on the front, and paper holding the tires to the axles.

I just uninstalled this game. The only thing that takes more time than the load screens are the times you hold down the repair button. I'll come back to this game maybe if they adjust the balance, physics, and optimization.

Ugh, they said they "Optimised [sic] car damage physics", and I don't know why I thought that would make it so your car didn't fall apart. Not sure if it's worth reinstalling then.

When I'm playing as Screwie Louie, I'm spending more time reattaching my wheels than I am trying to destroy the other drivers. It's insane how much you have to repair yourself, and how long it takes for you to kill anything. The drill seems to be attached with spit, and made out of paper mache.
