what the fuck happened to arcade racing games outside of obscure indie titles
>>722576338Here is your Burnout successor: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fud2lMr7blI
>>722576606Screamer is also coming out soon
>>722576338I didn't like burnout paradise
>>722576682Shh...we don't talk about that. /v/ is going to find something to shit on about that.
>>722576682Wreckreation too
>>722576338Arcades literally died anon.
>>722576821me neither, it just felt really sterile and boring somehow, the crash mode felt dead
>>722576821Me neither
I loved Burnout Paradise but you faggots take anyone praising a game you wrote off as enjoyable as needing to fucking kill themselves.
>>722576821I hated it.
>>722577579it was an alright game but quite the departure from the earlier games
>>722578949I accept that but I also felt like Burnout Revenge was indicative of a formula that was starting to hit the limits of its design.
2 was always better than 3.Better music, less rubber banding, nicer tracks. Road Rage is still the best game mode tho.
I think Burnout Revenge had the best Crash Mode but I'm also someone who doesn't consider Crash Mode the draw of Burnout's gameplay.
>>722576338Most arcade games are just sim racing game with proper forced assist anyway
>>722576606This just look like a shit version of burnout 3Why would i want to pay 70 dollars to play this instead emulating the old good games for free?
>>722580565It's a download-only game. I think it was only like $20.
>>722579209they could just have made more of it, revenge was peak
>>722576338cars are becoming increasingly uncool with newer generation so obviously there's going to be less demand for any kinds of racing games in general
>>722581470Its not uncool, just modern cars are shit, old cars are still kino. The costs are just too much to keep one around usually unless you are a 9-5er unlike prior.>>722576338Arcade Racing was always seen as the uncool kid vs the Racing Sim crew who thought it wasn't realistic enough, they were basically the Immersion Sim faggots of the sports game world.
>>722580912I actually would argue Dominator was better than Revenge in some ways, although I'd probably give it to Revenge overall.
if you want to fuck around with some cars there's gta online for that
>>722576338i dont like the traffic checking mechanic
>>722582682I assume it was because shitters kept crashing
Arcade racing died when Sony shutdown Evolution
All the major racing studios either died or became support studios due to corpo retardation. I think bugbear is the only old studio still around, and codemasters, if you consider working on the F1 mines to be alive
>>722582603nah the police and rules just makes it so you can't have fun
the year is 2025i have yet to find a Daytona USA arcade anywhere near mei wish my local theatre didn't get rid of their cab.dark days indeed.
>>722576338it's just right there idiot go play it.
>>722576338those games were so fucking goodi want to go back
>>722576821I was surprised to see the praise it got in recent years because I was under the impression the general consensus shared the feeling that it was lukewarm at best.
burnout 3 was one of the reasons I bought a ps2 despite having a gamecube for years I was pissed that gamecube only got burnout 1 and 2 too
>>722583774Zoomer nostalgia people praise me3 nowadays it honestly wasn't THAT bad minus the ending ME2 was fetch quests
>>722583040it skews the risk/reward. driving into oncoming traffic was supposed to be high risk but reward you with lots of boost, but now you can just do that in the normal lane
Burnout is the racing game for people who doesn't like racing.
>>722576338I always prefered the Flatout gamesWhen is Wreckfest 2 coming out?
>>722583982those are kart racers.
>>722583982It's for people who don't like "realistic" racing which is boring as fuck.
>>722576821It killed the series.I've been playing Legends and it feels like 2 and 3, but portable. It has been pretty fun.I don't want to get monkey paw'd asking for a pc port of 3.
>>722583556i don't want a kart racer
>no one remembers DominatorIt was pretty good even though it wasn't made by Criterion
kino ncoming:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qTJ3i7Ryqmg&t=5s
>>722584228I wonder how people can say this, lmao. I also wonder why people who like sim racing are mostly just fans of racing games and arcade racers, always wanking over the same one or two games
>>722576338wreckfest 2 is in alpha but you fags probably think its too simcadeyhot wheels unleashed is a decent arcade racerreal answer: the target audience grew up and people moved onto racing games with more realistic physics, got into sims or got into real life autosportsi recently replayed burnout revenge cuz i got a 360 and it's easy as fuck, there's no challengenostalgiafags are not an audience who buy games or MTXhowever if burnout rose from the dead and dropped a new one, it would at least break even
>>722584204>it..... doesn't count!!
>Forza Horizon......... doesn't count!
>Tokyo Xtreme Racing?>doesn't count!
>>722584839tried to play it, game was broken, didn't ask me to sign in yet required signing in to play. refunded it.
>>722584585>I also wonder why people who like sim racing are mostly just fans of racing gamesGran turismo fags and the people playing F1 games are not playing crash team racing or BallisticNG. Forzafags maybe, because you can essentially remove every sim element>arcade racers, always wanking over the same one or two gameswipeoutfzerohydro thundercruisn rushmario kartburnoutridge racerdaytona usadiddy kong racingrevolt split/secondflatoutstar wars podracingmidnight clubneed for speeddirtmod nation racersmotorstormredoutinitial Dhot wheelseat shit, retard
>>722584608hot wheels unleashed was fun but I felt like it was missing something I don't know if takedowns or items would have been a good addition but sometimes the races felt a bit sterile I think something like blur was pretty solid and the items didn't seem too overbearing but I never got to play it online
>>722585383i think what unleashed is missing is tighter tracks. more emphasis on actually having to brake and corner then just straight boosting. and i feel like it could be faster tooi love the verticality and the physics though
>>722584585Are you telling me racing fags don't just wank over grand turismo and forza
>>722585118Isnt this that one which had black disabled faggots in it, pride flags and BLM flags etc all over the cars.But was then banning accounts for having red cars with flames on them or something like that because 'racism'
>>722584315People have melties about the absence of Crash Mode.
>retards think GT is sim racing because of the sloganKek, no wonder even the dev and publisher don't take you guys seriously
>>722576338They're still around. Aside from the ones mentioned so far, iRacing Arcade looks like a good time
>>722586603still way too realistic for my liking, their entire platform is dogshit slow and clunky, and you can't just unlock all cars to play around with
>>722586603Anything more realistic than need for speed is sim racing
>>722587409The older games had a career disc/mode to play around with most of the cars and tracks. they balance around online since ps3 games
>>722587638are the non-brake to drift NFS games sims?
>>722587795It was a joke.... I meant the nos part
>>722588017I was half joking too, the categories are pretty arbitrary I recently played through Carbon without NOS or team powers for a challenge recently, pretty good time
>>722576338tokyo xtreme racing just came out
>>722576606cornering looks bad, like you've got way too much down force. and the crash physics are just horrible. how can they be worse than a game from 20 years ago? back then it must have been tough to even get shit running at 60 fps. now these should be solved problems with no performance bottleneck, yet you've got cars rolling around in the strangest way. and then the track is entirely surrounded by invisible walls! maddening to see.also the fucking camera is still so low your car blocks your vision of the fucking road. yes. I know. it makes things feel faster. so what, I don't want to have a blind spot in the center of my fucking vision, fix it.
>>722588809it looks interesting except for the shitty camera
