Looking forward to Release Day. Insta-buy for me. Here's hoping any DLC plans will be carefully reevaluated, because it was hella expensive for the first game. :ouch:
 
I’m pretty interested in the off-road racing. I hope the physics for that are enjoyable. Gives me some minor Trackmania Valley vibes which is cool. Either way the first game was pretty good but a bit repetitive so I’m glad they expanded the surface types in this new one which will lead to better track variety.

Also interested to see how the different classes of vehicles will compare to each other. Especially the massive monster trucks and ATVs. Also wonder how the bike handling will feel as well. This reminds me a lot of the recent Mario Kart games with all the different vehicle types racing at once.

Hopefully this is a progression from the last one, I loved it at the start and then as the obstacles / track design / strict time limits increased I lost interest. There's a fine line between fun and rage quit, snagging on track obstacles and falling off track was leaning towards the latter the deeper you get into the campaign. Lots of potential for the sequel hopefully it will tide us over while waiting for a wreckfest / codies wrc / test drive sequels its been a barren racing game spell.

Agreed the game was needlessly hard at times.

Considering its aimed at kids it was a bit brutal, reminded of games from previous generations needing a very strict level to be adhered to. I would like it to be more about finding a good line than avoiding traps and obstacles, hopefully the design and handling model is refined and its not just a cut and paste job we'll see. I expect it going to be more of the same in terms of monetizing, so will be waiting for a sale as riposte.

Where did the article screenshots come from? They seem to be from the first Acceleracers DLC pack and I haven't been able to find the source anywhere.

Ah well that clears that up! Carbide, RD-09, Rollin' Thunder and SpecTyte. Bizarrely SpecTyte seems to have been modeled wrong here, with two sets of large wheels when the front ones should be smaller.

Forgot if it was already there in first Unleashed, but finally Silencerz stuff.
