whats flatout is best?

[stukkers]

flatout 1, 2 or ultimate carnage?
I will buy one of this ^^

[INSANE]

FlatOut 2 is definitely the best out of all of them IMHO. Better graphics and gameplay mechanics than the first, and Ultimate Carnage is just FlatOut 2 with GFWL and supposedly improved graphics. I still like the graphics of FlatOut 2 best though.

I like Ultimate Carnage best but now am into the Next Car Game. Early Access is available. Check out this dudes video. I love Derby. http://youtu.be/51Fo258ZRJo
Can't wait for MP.

I know, NCG is on my "must have" list ^^

First one is an arcade with complex mechancs, second was dumbed to be burnout-like, but it's still very fun, Ultimate Carnage is FlatOut 2 with even dumber physics, crap music and soon to be cut online.
First one is the best for being original game without influence of mainstream.
Take first two and NCG.

get flatout ultimate carnage. It's basically Flatout 2 enhanced with new stuff, better graphics, better tracks etc. It also has different music, so I'd suggest both tbh, Flatout 2 and Flatout ultimate carnage but go with the latter if you can't get both.

But get flatout 2 at some point (The music and the overal experience is awesome!)

I wouldn't recommend "THe Next car game" yet, wait for it to be fully released.

Dumb music? Why? The music is amazing if you got the taste for it and the physics feel better, it's the last establishment by Bugbear before The Next car game.

I didn' say music is dumb, I said it's crap because compared to FO2 it is and it has nothing to do with taste. Phisics is dumber though, but people who prefer easy arcades like it.

[Sol4rSky]

It has to do with taste a lot. Music is subjective and tell me how are the physics better? You mean the handling? Pfff, the handling in ultimare carnage is better by a long shot and you can in both games upgrade your cars. Calling Flatout Ultimate carnage an "easier arcade" than Flatout 2 doesn't make any sense.

You act just like the people who can't adapt or like change, example: the people who don't like CS:GO and keep saying cs 1.6 is the best.

CS has always been somple arcade, FlaOut 1 did not. Xbox 360 made all game series even dumber for it's target audience, what's you call "better" is nothing more than easier. Sure, cars are easier to control when there is no defference between rwd and fwd.

I was on this board a few weeks ago defending FOUC, saying it was better but since then i've played Flatout 2 (GoG version) for about 30+ hours and what that guy is saying about the handling is spot on. Cars feel radically different from one another and have a tendency to flip, slide, jump on two wheels and roll much more often. Also with a slight resolution patch FO2 while not having the new texture is much sharper than FOUC and this makes the tracks and skyboxes much nicer to look at.

Also i know this is subjective but the Music in FO:UC is kind of sub-par... and for me that tipped the scale in FO2s favor. I was honeslty unaware how amazing the second game was... shame on me. OH and FO2 Drm free (GoG) > FO:UC Steam (GFWL).

I own all of the FlatOut's, and I can say that Ultimate Carnage is the best one. You will not regret it.

[Triberto]

Flatout 2 is the best for me XD

Agreed.

[massai11]

Have you guys tried Next Car Game? Good stuff.

[gtmsnba13]

Ultimate Carnage, but buy Flatout 2. It's better for the price and doesn't have GFWL DRM; and as a result, you'll run into fewer issues.
