[QUOTE=SoUl_ReApEr2;33701462]Not really a tough croud, people knew Duke Nukem Forever was gonna be crap when they saw gameplay, well the new version of the game before it came out, oh and guess what it was... I enjoyed it, but it wasn't good at.[/QUOTE]
I was happy with my purchase of Duke Nukem Forever. :)
Regardless of what it looks like, I only played the flatout games for the stunts, I had some great laughs on there, happy to pay £22 or whatever the pre order price was for some more laughs on new stunts.
Also the steam forums are flooded with kids crying that it hasn't been released yet.
[QUOTE=Purple44;33705509]I was happy with my purchase of Duke Nukem Forever. :)[/QUOTE]
I was too, but it still doesn't make the game good, I enjoyed it because it's Duke the gameplay was crappy, choppy and the graphics weren't so good.
[QUOTE=NitronikALT;33640082]Was browsing trought FlatOut joint. Seems like the trailer is an old build of FlatOut 3

Team6 will set up polls on their site so we can express our thoughts and preferences towards the game. Also, they released some gameplay videos, that I will add in the OP.
Here, have some offroad mode :

In all honesty, that looks pretty bad.
Those overlays / contrast effects make it look horrible, the controls look horrible, the vehicle damage is pretty 2004.

Vehicle deformation couldn't be implemented. They are willing to implement it later thought, if enough players request it.
Yeah, the physics is 101% arcade. Offroad mode left me with a "meh" feeling, but I actually liked Race Mode's madness. Even thought the AI doesn't seem challenging at all.
I'll wait for some reviews and then see if it's worth purchasing. But I guess it is, because Team6 is working with some FlatOut Joint users to make it as much Mod-Friendly as possible (feel free to correct me Purple)
Bah. I guess i'm used to semi-realistic driving games and that's why it looks bad to me. I do have flatout on my steam list (Once bought it so my lil cousin could play it while he was over here). Maybe i'll give it a try.
[QUOTE=Namelezz!;33658571]Yeah, it looks like garbage. The original FlatOut was the greatest.[/QUOTE]
I spent fucking hours in the mini-games.

Day 1 Patch!
[release]
- "Classic" option for more realistic springs, slower paced gameplay as well as harder physics for destroyable objects.
- Multiplayer lobby game mode select
- Improved physics (especially on landing), especially for offroad and monstertrucks.
- Fixed the respawn issue in multiplay.
- Video options: disabling of postFX, amongst others.
- Radar fix in destruction derby & monster trucks.
- More proper health balancing (especially usefull in challenge / destruction mode but also during races).

[/release]
Anyway, there's quite a bit of things coming our way.
[release]
-Next patch :
> [b]There will be chassis deformation[/b]
>A lot of improvements and fixes for multiplayer
>Addition of gameplay variables, such as damage multiplier
>Classic mode, which makes everything heavier, cars less spinny, your old FlatOut basicly!
|>Classic mode will let you customize a lot of aspects of the game : for example, using boost won't heal your car
>Community supporter will get his own car skin
>Physics for Non-Classic mode will be different from what it is now : Instead of feather-like cars, we'll have heavier cars and also heavier objects
-Demo coming next week
-If you don't like the music, convert your favourite songs to .ogg and drop them in the /music/ folder
-MODability :
>You can mod small derby arenas to be used in Big Battle mode, upping the limit from 12 to 14 players
>Ronnie will provide a custom 3DSmax exporter + an example car for us to lear how to mod the game
>LUA can be used in conjunction with the Mission Editor to create brand new gamemodes
-Developer Console. It was disabled in this release "to prevent hacks and cheats"
-Future DLC
[/release]

Oh and, you'd better wait for the demo

So is it good?
[QUOTE=MuffinZerg;33750088]So is it good?[/QUOTE]
Physics are 101% arcade, next patch will make cars and objects heavier, also Classic Mode, which brings back our beloved FlatOut physics

It's pre-set deformation but it's still better than no deformation at all imho.

This is the exact same car that was used in Ronnie's screenshot to show me how much damage would affect the cars

I loved flatout 1 and 2.. I played this one for 2 minutes..uninstalled. Now I'm playing flatout 2 again. Don't waste your time on this one, fucking horrible.
This game really needs at least 1 year of development. They just selling a beta build or some kind of for 20-30$ (I don't know the price, because here everything is cheap)

Yeah, seems to be filled with bugs, especially in MP.
Anyway, check the OP for the price. Do you own the game?
Big fan of 1 and 2, played the shit out of them on PS2.
Always enjoyed throwing ragdolls at stuff.
Hoping to get this soon, you guys all seem to be hating on it but I'd rather play it and then share my opinion because you can never tell from gameplay videos.
Did they even get the Flatout license? this looks like some russian bootleg game.

I'll tell you, at the moment there is no chassis deformation and the physics is VERY arcadey.
The first is beign introduced in Patch 2, as for the physics wait for patch 1. It will introduce Classic Mode , which will turn the physics into Flatout's
There's a demo coming out next week
[editline]16th December 2011[/editline]
[QUOTE=backfoggen;33751620]Did they even get the Flatout license? this looks like some russian bootleg game.[/QUOTE]
Yes they did.
EDIT
Deformation!
[img_thumb]http://www.lay-zmattress.com/flatout2/purple44/Flatout5/screenshots/FO3-deformation.jpg[/img_thumb]
The game has been patched to fix the horrible physics and also add [b]damage deformation[/b]!
Also , Classic Mode! And a 33% discount! It's playable in it's current state, so pick it up. "Free DLC" tomorrow (read [url=http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?p=27152711#post27152711]here[/url] ).
Demo should be coming soon
To be honest.
This looks like utter shit compared to 1 and 2.
everybody knows and said it.
A demo will be coming out.
After watching those first videos... ugh
The classic video made me have some more hope though.
Do we know if the demo will at least be available with the latest patchs ? (classic and 'deformation')
and i hope i can disable that eye killing blur
Loved the first one, and I enjoyed Ultimate Carnage, though I don't think it was a really great game. But you guys are saying that the trailers for this one are horrible
I'm afraid of clicking them and getting disappointed

Patch 1 and 2 were released as an unique patch.
Yes, the trailers are fucking horrible, but the game has changed quite a bit.
First of all, there's chassis deformation. Blur and Bloom, even, can be now disabled. Yes, the demo should contain the patch.
A lot of the "haters" on SPUF said that the game is now playable in Classic Mode, so yeah.
Today we should get "free DLC"

What the fuck is it with games these days being released entirely unfinished?
[QUOTE=Squeegy Mackoy;33855086]What the fuck is it with games these days being released entirely unfinished?[/QUOTE]
Eh. The publisher gave us all the finger. The game was forced to be released Dec.13 and still, after the official release, the game didn't go gold.
Anyway, Patch 3 is released
[release]
Patch3 includes:
- New destruction derby map, Moscow!
- New character, X-mas girl!
- Fixed the Tuning settings bug in multiplay.
- Serverlist displaying not only lobbies but also ingame servers.
- New 'Game-mode switch' feature now available in multiplay from within lobby.
- Fixed the 3200km/h collision location in the lumberjack map.*
- Added a "reset controls" function.
- Fixed the switch-music crash (only loads MP3 now, should fix the issue)
[/release]
*There was a spot where, if you were fast enought, you could fall in the void
I bought the game, expect my opinion soon
-
In the patch 3 notes, what the hell is that 3200km/h collision thing?
