NEW CARMA INFO:
Re: NEW CARMA INFO:
Hah, looks like we got the news from the same source. I opened the e-mail as I was opening Bluesnews and saw the news there aswell.
Seriously though, this sounds somewhat more creddible then the announcement we saw at Gamespot back in June.

Re: NEW CARMA INFO:
Does anyone actually know what company is making it this time / currently??? If it isn't Stainless, it will be brainless!? (LOL™)
Re: NEW CARMA INFO:
I seriously doubt Stainless will be making it. And I checked out Novadrome - looks.. eh.. at best.

Re: NEW CARMA INFO:
How bad can it get?
If there's gonna be a new one and it's worse, there's always Carma2 (or TDR, if you're a shmuck like myself) and if it's gonne be better, there's still Carma2 (if you're up for nostalgia).
As far as the wishlist goes I'll have to stick (for now) to what alot of the folks here have already said:
Please digital God, let it be as moddable as the other ones. Customizing rules, even if I don't do it myself!

My guess is that Novadrome(or whatever) is nice and "fun" to appeal to the masses, so that they make enough money to stay out of bankruptcy

Re: NEW CARMA INFO:
Hate to bump an old topic, but I was right. SCi announced Scotland-based developer Visual Sciences will make the next Carmageddon, and has moved from prototype to full development on both the Xbox and PlayStation 2. No mention of a PC version. Big fucking surprise.
Re: NEW CARMA INFO:
Where'd you get that info?
Can it be trusted?

Re: NEW CARMA INFO:
It's part of SCi's "trading update" and it ahould appear on game media sites and their official site throughout the day. They also announced a game based off 2000AD's Rogue Trooper series, reminded everyone about Galleon, and some other shit nobody cares about.

You can find more info with a little more digging.

Re: NEW CARMA INFO:
OK, SCi added it to their website http://www.sci.co.uk/corporate/press_re ... asp?id=152
I never heard of Visual Sciences and can't find one game they ever made.
[Edit 5 minutes later...] I found out the place was founded by the guy who created Lemmings and made last year's Formula 1: Career challenge, a sub par racing game for the PS2.
• As announced recently a new version in SCi’s Carmageddon series has recently moved from prototype into full development. This product is being developed on PS2 and Xbox by Visual Sciences, a Scottish based developer that has previously worked extensively for Electronic Arts.

Re: NEW CARMA INFO:
Just checked out the SCi website, they released an official document. You're right, it's PS2/XBOX.
BAH!!

Re: NEW CARMA INFO:
[Fine then, comment removed - still, for me, no PC-version = no interest]
Re: NEW CARMA INFO:
Making that comment without even knowing anything about the game is completely out of place and imho, stupid.
Re: NEW CARMA INFO:
There should be a pc version, hasn't been a Carma' yet without one. Yet...

Re: NEW CARMA INFO:
Well, I kinda agree with him. I mean, we're like the only people how give a crap about this series anymore and by not making a pc version, they might as well be saying "fuck you" to the lot of us just so they can go after more money.
Besides, What good is a good game engine (if it even turns out to be decent), if you can't add the kind of cars you like to it?!
For shame!
(although it's a bit early tell....so perhaps they will do a pc version?!)

Re: NEW CARMA INFO:
Fuck that. Even I as primarily a console gamer say "BLARG!".
I'm not even getting it if it goes console-exclusive.
Just look: The replay value of Carmageddon comes mainly from all the modding that goes on - I refuse to go online with consoles (that's what PCs are for!) so nothing's gonna happen there.

Re: NEW CARMA INFO:
My brother in law was hanging around at IGN.com and we picked up this here link. I didn't read the store properly myself yet, but I saw something about Carma4 coming to PC after all.
Here's the link:
http://ps2.ign.com/articles/498/498160p1.html
I don't know how much trust we may put in IGN, but I guess we can go and get our hopes up again, eh?

Re: NEW CARMA INFO:
Im sorry i have to say it but, if SCI dont release a PC version then they will have made a HUGE f***ing mistake. I played Carmageddon 64 on the Nitendo 64 and it was basically C2 on console and it was absaloute B***CKS. If SCI had a brain they would come down here listen to what we have to say and do it. So now we have possiable break out of war agains them because they are thicker than dried cement. SCI WHAT GIVES?!!!!!!!!!
Sorry little carried away then, everyone on here has been looking forward to and waiting for Carma 4 and as soon as they say they are making it then they go and tell us "Oh yeah no PC version" WTF.
Sorry for the bad words in their Mods.

Re: NEW CARMA INFO:
Maybe they know there is too much negative-will on the carmageddon/pc scene, or on the other hand, maybe they thought it was too obvious to mention that there was gonna be a pc one
lets face it, it would have be something really really special to get acknowledgement from 'the scene' (well excluding the hit-whore sites), and the console dont have as well founded communities to potentially influence people. It's no doubt easier all round for their marketing and accounts to not have to contend on a level field with the previous games.
...and the brand makes another move down.
although, as always, I'm open to waiting to see it first hand out of curiosity, so they have a chance, depisite the manner in which they deal with people.

simple rule for me; if my little sister could make up the name, i'm outta this (they may stick the game up their ..... )
any self respecting man would ignore games like; "carma 4 the ultimate bumpercars" (TUB for short)
