Edgy fun. My parents hated it, so I liked it even more. Crashing was more fun than the actual race.

Legendary game, but you literally can't "finish" it in a true sense. You just end up on the last level, and that's it. Moreover, winning other cars is totally strange

Carmageddon = Carmageddon 2 >> 2000TDR >>> Reincarnation

>>5386661
TDR 2000 was really bad, did they fuck up Reincarnation this much?

>>5386657
There is no ending?

>>5386791
No, Max Damage is the final release and it is rather good. Has C1 atmosphere and physics engine more advanced than C2 so it's a nice sandbox like the classic games. Sadly modding is way more restricted and not as easy. But the big problem is the overal optimisation, while it's better than during the Reincarnation stage, it can still perform poorly even on decent hardware. They should have used Unreal engine or something rather than their old inhouse tech.

>>5387482
Just a small cutscene when you beat the last level. There's no mission or boss fight. Devs could have made beating the Suppressor as the end.

>>5386604
I spent quite a while trying to change the blood color to red thinking there's something wrong with my installation, before realizing it was because of the region

>>5386604
Eh, it's no GTA III

From the last Carmageddon thread in /vr/, a little pack with C1+HD executables etc. Check the readme if necessary.

https://rr2000.toshiba-3.com/R6/CARMA-vr.zip

Carma 1 had god tier aesthetics desu. 2 is still my favorite thanks to the insane damage model.
Also rip carmajunkies/wasted. I knew I should have backed up my favorite mods from there.

Thanks man!

>>5386617
same thing with my parents they mistakenly bought the game for me and realized it was really bad and they hated it well only my dad hated it

>>5386604
It was the best PC game ever made and one of my all time favorites when I was 5 I still play it today!

>>5386604

Die Anna was pretty cute.

>>5387482
That's right, you just drive the last track and that's it, nothing more.

>>5388110
she's 14

>>5388110
She's like 14 in the game, m8.

>>5388158
>>5388182
<14
<in the game
Fuck off, toxic feminist scum.

Die Anna IS cute. Does anyone know if her voice in the game is actually Faye Morey? I can't seem to hear.

>>5386604
It's fun but kinda regret not playing it when I was like 14 because I would've fucking adored it then. Especially 2 since it had Iron Maiden for its soundtrack.

>>5386657
>Moreover, winning other cars is totally strange
You have a random chance to win a car if you destroyed it, but not every single one - just the ones that devs drew cockpits for.
Now, what's the actual number of cars you can add to the game? I think it starts to bug at the total of 48 or so.

>>5387769
Thanks. Is it merged with Splat Pack?

>>5386623
>everyone hit on Faye
>turned out she was 14

>>5388608

>it's an Americans don't understand when girls become sexually mature episode

Is this car in the Splat Pack impossible to unlock before beating the game or something?

The fact that it has its own cockpit and how it lacks a cheat banner on the car select menu suggests that its stealworthy, but I've never been able to unlock it even though I made sure that it was in every race from when it starts appearing all the way to the final race.

What about the PS1 version?
I recall it being a bit different from both 1,2, the original and N64.

>>5388589
There's indeed a limit of 48 car slots in the savefile, if you add more cars the game will try to write additional slots in the savefile and overwrite skill level and other settings resulting in such a save to always be set to easy difficulty. There's a patch to avoid that problem (http://www.cwaboard.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=9630 ) but then additional cars will only be available with a savefile with the game set as beaten.

Also no that /vr/ pack hasn't got the Splat Pack content merged in. Anons weren't too fond of it. HD execs can be added over the Meldpack either manually or via QTZ's patch.

>>5388673
IIRC Stodge Barger isn't 'stealworthy'.

>>5388725
IMO the PSX version is very decent, and gamers who first discovered the series with this installment like it. Lots of original content which was nice. The cars unique to the PSX version are available for C1. Some tracks are available for C1 and C2.

Carmageddon is a satisfying addicting dumb fun game... I spend hundreds of hours in it as a kid, killing all the peds in all the levels.

The game would be so much better if:

1) AI was better
2) You had a chance to randomly earn ALL cars

Also Splat Pack was such a disappointment. I had a one level demo as a kid, the medieval castle thing, and that one is a great level, but there is only like 2-3 great levels in Splat Pack and the rest is shit.

Reincarnation was a buggy unfinished mess... But Frankly, Max Damage is amazing. It's the best in the series. Too bad by the time it finally came out on Steam I had played Reincarnation so much I barely felt like it anymore.

Cool. I beat Carma many times so i don't really mind booting a complete save just to have fun with additional cars.
>Anons weren't too fond of it
Why is that? Looks like i missed some /vr carma history there.

I've only played 1 for a little while, and it's just kinda weird. You have these big open maps that beg to be explored, but only a tiny bit of it is the actual track. If you race it normally, the level will be done in like 3 minutes. If you go to crash everyone, it doesn't really matter what the map has in it because you're just ramming people into whatever wall is closest. I guess the exploration part comes in if you want to kill every pedestrian, but that means your opponents could win by finishing the race, and the very idea seems so fuckin tedious I'd never want to try it anyway.

Maybe it's a game that comes into its own in multiplayer where players could actively hunt each other down, but it still seems like if another player was clear across the map, their opponent would just go back to the track and finish the race. So why bother straying far from the track?

If it was just a destruction derby in a big map, it'd make more sense to just run around and see what the map has to offer while chasing or being chased by whoever happens to be closest in that part. But why have the race part at all?

>2) You had a chance to randomly earn ALL cars
Working to unlock cars was fun for me. I felt universal upgrades we're enough of a favor.

>>5390481
Replay value sucks though because it's always about the same few cars... when it could be so much more

>>5390483
You can make this a reality with a simple changing of some text files.

WAH HEY!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

How can I play this on Windows 10 the gog version is poor on Windows 10. Is there like a Windows environment version floating around ? Like with tomb raider 1 instead dos someone remade it for Windows

>>5394469
Have you tried >>5387769 to see if it works for you?

There's this patch that restores Carma95 along with many other tweaks onto the GOG/Steam releases too: http://qtz.toshiba-3.com/uMaxPack95RPP.zip (basically the same thing as the pack posted above).
Carma95 performance should be better than the release with DOSBox, but yeah your mileage may vary.

>>5390034
The Carmageddon series are sandbox games for you to enjoy roaming around and creating all kind of chaos/mayhem and eventually finish the race.
About the racing part, have you tried racing on hard difficulty? Been a long time but I reckon it must become quite challenging as you progress through the "career".

>>5386604
It's great, I realized recently it is one of my favourite racing games ever, even if you don't really complete any race.
Max Damage was dumb fun as well, on some accounts it is definitely better, but it can't have the impact the original had.

I wish the new game controlled better, I know people will say "it controls just like the original" but its like racing a failing muscle car on a road covered with Vaseline.

>>5386604
Curmudgeon is ok.

>>5393923
This tbqh.

Was a huge fan of C2 and TDR2000 way back then. Good times. Only played C1 after the hype but it's undoubtetly a great game as well.

>>5389568
>Max Damage is amazing. It's the best in the series
Max Damage looks no different from Reincarnation
I didn't like Reincarnation...did they really improve on it that much?

>>5395420

It feels heavier compared to the original, but I would say the original felt heavier compared to other racing games of its time.
After a couple of hours learning Max Damage controls, I was already doing all the dumb tricks I remembered from the original.

>>5388538
Yes I remember that soundtrack. I used to play carmageddon on my old shitty gateway when I was like 13. It was my only exposure to metal at that time.

RECTUM

>>5386604
It was cute, dumb fun.
Did any of you actually try to beat the levels "as God intended" meaning legitimately trying to race your opponents, running laps and finishing up on a first place? Instead of immediately going off-the-track trying to murder all the pedestrians and/or other opponents?
I finished some the levels trying to race ny way to victory and could never shake off the feeling that the game is disappointed in me.

>>5396826
The AI doesn't try to race you, that's the issue.

That's why I said Max Damage was better, AI is better, with the different game modes, like pure race, they actually behave that way. The different game modes also give a reason to use different cars.

>Original Carmageddon in 1080p
HOLY SHIT thank you anon. It's been a few years since I last replayed Carmageddon and did it through the GOG Dosbox version that forced a lower resolution. It worked well enough but this is fantastic.

bump

>>5390034
You're completely wrong about the race being over in like 3 minutes, I seem to remember some maps being like 10 laps or something. It was usually way faster to kill your opponents, one good slam can take someone out.

>>5386604
Mindless boomercore fun, kinda like destruction derby but deliberately, comedically and unapologetically edgy, like a lot of 90's things.

>>5386604
Not too far off of how people normally drive over here.

>>5394483
>>5398382
My point is just that the race part seems superfluous and takes away from the sandbox exploration of the big maps. As long as someone can win by completing the race, why risk playing around on the other side of the map and giving the other racers that chance? If there was no race, there'd be a reason to go putz around - everyone would be running around the map trying to find and kill each other, so you'd explore the map either to find them or to go bash barrels to get powerups to making killing them easier.

>>5386623
Not even 10s in and they start talking about mad max

>>5401731
Opponents can't win the race. In C1 they can't even waste you. The player can only loose by running out of time, or being wasted in C2.
So yeah, as long as you've got the time you're free to explore.

Pic related is a bit outdated but can still help playing the games and getting into modding.
