In 2006, the Finnish team BugBear Entertainment released an amazing racing arcade game, whose name was FlatOut. Those who are older may remember games like Wingel 8, Twisted Metal, or even Karmageddon. At one time, they were all megahits, but then for some reason the concept of a car race / crusher / shooter was forgotten. Hunger came, racing without rules began to slowly be forgotten. And then Flatout appeared. And as it appeared - shot. A physicist wonderful for its time, the ability to destroy everything and everything, a cool soundtrack, cool modes, among which
Derby was especially distinguished
. This is a race without rules. The game is played until only one remains. And this is not just a relegation competition - no. Everyone has one task - to destroy everyone whom you see. However, enough emotions - move on to a measured story ...
Career
Of course, any good game is worth a go, but Flatout 2 is recommended to play for fun with friends. Therefore, we will pay less attention to the career. So, the garage, in the garage there are three classes of cars + one bonus.
- Derby: rusty tin cans, which, however, can drive decently and are very tenacious.
- Rally: middle ground.
- Sports cars: fast, uncontrollable, scary and very fragile cars.
- Bonus class: this is a technique for special modes. It is characterized by jet thrust. In a career, you can’t roll out to drive it, but in multiplayer ... It will be a very fun day!
In the garage, as usual, there is tuning.
Strategy and Tactics
The main highlight here is that it is the most anti-glamorous and most destructive race without rules in the world. Therefore, "slipper on the floor !!!" here it’s not a ride. Often, having bought the fastest car and having given all opponents on the circle, you will receive less than all points. Because it’s a fun race: to win here you need to ram, destroy buildings, substitute rivals. And it's in racing mode. This seemingly strange approach to racing does its job. Judge for yourself - in Need for Speed it all comes down to the fastest car and ketchup (ketchup is when the bot follows you much faster than you, like cheating. It helps to keep the adrenaline racing). And racing without rules is already more fun!
Fun modes
In addition to standard races, there is also something else to watch in this game. For example, unique in-game modes of mini-games. Only in this game can you play darts with a car, make a range race in the pool, or just kick the driver out of the cab to a height.
Well, the derby, which we already mentioned above, in general, is a universal way to improve the mood for yourself and your partners.
Soundtrack
For the development of Flatout 2, unlike the first part, much more money was allocated. Therefore, the team got the opportunity to make a mega-cool, super-quality soundtrack to the game. In this application you will hear the songs Papa Roach, Nickelback, Rob Zombie. Together with the super-dynamic adrenaline component, these races without rules are still very pleased with the soundtrack!
Summary
Flatout 2 is a great old-school racing without rules. It was simply impossible to miss the game at one time. Therefore, if you are a connoisseur of the genre and for some misunderstanding missed it, correct immediately!
