[hd]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=spHD3bV7Nqo[/hd] It's on steam (early access) now, and if you buy it, you get 1, 2, and TDR 2000 with it. [url]http://store.steampowered.com/app/249380/[/url]
Even better is the fact that the beta is actually the full game, now it's just about weeding out glitches and fixing some performance issues, and then it's gold
Played about a half hour of it, it's a pretty great update. I'm glad they updated it after so long, I was getting worried it was going the route of other early access games, with development mysteriously stopping.
How is it "public" beta? I'm pretty sure everyone who bought it got to play it at any point.
Looks like a lot of fun but why does the trailer have FPS dips?
[QUOTE=Mr_Awesome;47141395]Looks like a lot of fun but why does the trailer have FPS dips?[/QUOTE] I noticed this too. It made it kind of hard to tell what was happening.

[QUOTE=Skyguy113;47141465][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/j7k9L66.png[/IMG] Now in pubic beta![/QUOTE] I believe that is on purpose. It's even in the trailer.
[QUOTE=Mr_Awesome;47141395]Looks like a lot of fun but why does the trailer have FPS dips?[/QUOTE] One of the biggest problems they currently have is performance issues. Since they wanted a open development process, they first focused on making it work and then optimizing it afterwards.
[QUOTE=spekter;47141390]How is it "public" beta? I'm pretty sure everyone who bought it got to play it at any point.[/QUOTE]They didn't update the public alpha for six months or so while they worked on more content and weeded out serious issues in the game engine. So this is a huge dump of content along with fixes etc.
I'd like a way to select what background music tracks the game should NOT play. They've added some iffy dubstep-y music.
Wohoo! Time to buy
Wow, that looks absolutely amazing
[QUOTE=Van-man;47144364]I'd like a way to select what background music tracks the game should NOT play. They've added some iffy dubstep-y music.[/QUOTE] I find it fitting, honestly. It's about as heavy as the metal, just of a different genre. At least that's how I see it.
Bought it, pretty hyped to try it out.
[QUOTE=Starlight 456;47144534]I find it fitting, honestly. It's about as heavy as the metal, just of a different genre. At least that's how I see it.[/QUOTE] Seems more like the kind of music I'd expect in a FPS game. But I'm also used to the metal music for the original carmageddon.
"pubic" beta
[QUOTE=Van-man;47144246]One of the biggest problems they currently have is performance issues.

Time to reinstall it
[QUOTE=DMGaina;47145709]Time to reinstall it[/QUOTE] I'm up for multiplayer. Also they managed to cut about 6 gigs compared to pre-alpha release.
I still don't get it, how is it a public beta if it's not a public beta?
[QUOTE=nikomo;47146161]I still don't get it, how is it a public beta if it's not a public beta?[/QUOTE] It's [U]public[/U] beta, not [U]open[/U] beta. [editline]15th February 2015[/editline] and that they wanted to use pubic beta joke
[QUOTE=LittleBabyman;47146111]I'm up for multiplayer. Also they managed to cut about 6 gigs compared to pre-alpha release.[/QUOTE] I'd love to but it doesn't launch anymore I am trying for hours now.
Was that a funny car? Oh boy. 0-60 in 1.3 seconds!
Man I wish I had 20 quid to spare. Carmageddon 2 was a game I grew up playing, I still remember some of the cheats off the top of my head.
[QUOTE=Lerlth;47148845]Was that a funny car? Oh boy. 0-60 in 1.3 seconds![/QUOTE] The best part about the funny car is that it corners about as well as a funny car would in real life travelling at 60+ MPH. :v:

This game is a must buy!

Later got the full game, so damn good. Even all these years later I still play it from time to time, also i'm glad its on steam for new fans. I even went as far as learning how to mod it recently: [video=youtube;kjnVQdI_Kow]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kjnVQdI_Kow[/video]
