crash physics

[ThEdUDe]

are they as good as BeamNG?

[Cheeki Breeki]

Haven't played beamNG, but this games crash physics surpass any other game i've ever played.

[BeamZappa]

The damage is poor compared to BeamNG but good for a 24 car simulation, the cars are like strange plastic as opposed to sheet metal, there is very little mechanical damage, a crushed little cube drives only slightly worse than a fresh car, but theres no way we could have a track with 24 cars running with BeamNG type physics going down!

[The Guy You Know Down The Road]

BeamNG models most of a cars parts if not all of them. Wrecfkest is mostly based on the outer parts of the car, youll always have a drivers seat and a steering column and the cars can't be torn apart like BeamNG.

Wreckfest still very good damage physics compared to arcade sim racers and probably close to the damage you would get in the older flatout games.

[Ausmerica]

It doesn't have soft-body physics like Beam, but it has gameplay, which Beam doesn't.

[Engicop]

Not as good as BeamNG for performance reasons, but still close and better than most games in the genre.

[Dat Zorro]

From the BeamNG-videos, they have a way more detailed damage-model, but I don't think it's that fun in Wreckfest if your car is more or less a 1-Hitpoint-Wonder which dies the second someone looks at it funny.

[Mad]

There's no way any PC would be able to run a game with BeamNG physics and 20 cars on a track.

Its like BeamNG lite. It has softbodies,but the calculations are capped at much lower rate. As others said above it also doesn't have beams,but instead uses spheres. It simulates denting very well,but does not simulate bending. So direct contact results in deformation,but further along the car doesn't react like it would in beamNG

The compromise of course means you can have 24 car multiplayer,rather than >10 car single player

To be fair you can't do that in Wreckfest either. They've toned it down since the Sneak Peek demo thingy but it is still very good.

All files are open (except gamemodes) for modding,so you turn it up to that or beyond if you are comfortable with fiddling in the games files

[Your Favorite Eggo]

is it exactly the same, no.
Do you like BeamNG, buy this game

Oh, well I'll just shut my mouth then. I've not tried modding this at all since way back.

You should try :) you turn it into anything you want really.

I certainly will a little bit down the line, I wanna get through at least a chunk of the final vanilla version first though.
