Well I just played a small amount of it & the gameplay seems totally fun.The worse part, it's badly optimised.Yes folks it butchered my rig with 17-24 Fps with everything on high & full AF.Add to the injury it lacked AA which was a serious disappointment & as you can see from the screenshots it's very much noticeable.The car handling is pretty easy & seems responsive.The menu style looks like a complete burnout rip off.The ragdoll physics are awesome & pretty much everything you bump into will come in your way sooner or later.Car damage is also pretty good but nothing compared to GriD.It would have turned out to be a good title if only the optimisation was done properly.Flat Out 2 ran super smooth on my rig & had pretty much the same effects & almost near graphical quality to this game.Hence am a bit disappointed with it's performance.I will try it again when I get my 4850 though.Hopefully it will feel a lot better.But it's fun & for those who have almost ripped off their hair trying to control GriD cars, this would be a good change. True to the tracks description, the races are located in the canal and in the town. Lots of alternative routes and shops to go through. Race around canals set in the outskirts of a large city. Its one big location with all the tracks: Water Canal 1, Water Canal 2 and Water Canal 3.

Just got back from a single race event of Flat Out Carnage.First a few screenshots: The Water Canal is one of the types of tracks in FlatOut 2 and FlatOut: Ultimate Carnage.
