it's Blaze, she can take care of herself, ok?

Leo Garcia
Man that was amazing. Omega kicking the wreck after Rouge. Shadow's face when he realized what was going to happen, the Chaos control to get out of the car and then just walking to the stands. This is what Sonic should be, all the time.

ok that was pretty great

Dear Sega,
let that fucking mod in.
Connor Lee
It's not even better than the last racing game
Andrew Gomez
Lol this. It's not even out yet! What a bunch of fags.
Angel James
It's not even out yet.
I doubt it'll be better for most people, but it's still looking good on its own

Modern Eggman is just as funny as Classic Eggman. I can dig it.

>Worse roster

>No transforming tracks
It's worse by default
Evan Gutierrez
I can live without the transformations, the gameplay of Transformed was fun as fuck and it's the exact same for this game
Carson Foster
is does sonic have a wacky racers cartoon now?
can we just get mania 2 already what's going on
Luke Ross
To promote the new racing game they made some shorts like they did for Mania Adventures
Jose Flores
Well, it's called Team Racing, not Transformed
>hurrr, Transformed doesn't have Team gameplay!!
Owen Thomas
What made transformed so much better was the transformations. It was a genuinely innovative mechanic that no other kart racer was doing to the same degree. But of course good ideas are like kryptonite to Sonic Team so must be purged
Sebastian Peterson
Uh, yeah... That's why it's worse retard
Caleb Phillips
And WHAT IF the team gameplay is ALSO a good idea?
Jose Peterson
Team Sonic Racing has the team mechanics where you can pass items between your two teammates and help them win, which is also unique.
>Sonic Team
I'm pretty sure it was Sumo Digital's call, since they are the ones making the game
Plus I feel like them cutting the transformations is fine for one game isn't that big a deal since it isn't a sequel to the All Stars Racing games, just a spiritual successor

Crash Nitro Kart did that back in 2003
Wyatt Anderson
>The Simpsons did it argument
Parker Wood
People won't admit if it is or not, because they only see the downsides of it rather than seeing both sides equally. It's a neat concept but I can easily see it not being played as much as solo races
But do you see any kart racers doing it now is the point. You could argue that karts changing form to allow for new elements of track design during laps was already done in Mario Kart 7, and yet Transformed still did it in its own way one year later.
Xavier Peterson

Jason Reyes
I feel like you people just come out from under your rocks to project on people because your own favorite franchise is now soulless AAA garbage and you can't cope properly
Nicholas Anderson
Logan Fisher
It's not nearly as interesting as transformations since it revolves entirely around item play which has always been secondary to the core racing mechanics. It's a neat idea for a side attraction, but not as the main selling point. I'd much rather they expand on the transforming mechanics which still had much more potential.
Brandon Baker
It doesn't rely on only item play though, you can also get boosts from your teammates if you trail behind the lead member, or if you get spun out, and if you're playing as a Power character, you can open up other routes for players to take
Brayden Taylor
lol
based knuckles
Elijah Brooks
If that's the most exciting thing that can happen this game than you're only proving my point.

>people get mad
Kevin Williams
But the teams are ass. Only good ones are Sonic and Dark.
Brody Jones
To be fair it adds an element of strategy to the game. Technique type characters can drive on rough terrain without any penalty. Say you're in the lead for your team and you have the slipstream. Should you take a shortcut, or stay on the track so your teammates can benefit? I like stuff like that, and it means the races can be more neck in neck and tense.
I think everyone can agree they are, but I'm just glad to be able to use some of these characters. I honestly see myself using just about everyone but Zavok
Tyler Torres
Will it be better than robo kart?
Gavin Rogers

>getting rid of the Sega all-stars
This game can fuck right off
Ayden Taylor
I don't mind it, honestly. Would love to see them do a game of another genre with them if they decide to retire All Stars Racing and make follow ups to this game instead, considering they've already had different genres with them before All Stars Racing was a thing.

It's a great time to be alive for Fun Racers making a comeback.
Neokiketrashitpisstendo should just neck itself and close doors for their Mario Tard series second hand embarassment.
take your meds, Nintendicklet. you are about to hyperventilate and scream for your mom to bring you hotpockets again
Carson Powell
And THAT racing game wasn't as good as the one before it either.
Colton Cox
These shorts are cute but I’m worried about having to rely on other racers in a kart racer. Just kinda wanted something more straightforward
Noah Kelly
I'm willing to bet there's gonna be one team you unlock after doing some elaborate thing that's 3 crossover characters.
Right, it's the current year, sorry, they'll be DLC
Easton Wilson
it should be the opposite, the chao should become lighter with shadow abuse because Shadow's a dark character in sa2 mechanics.
SOULESS

>classic sonic pandering
for fucks sake
Christian Hernandez
I'm more a fan of Transformed myself, but as I've been revisiting both games to prepare for TSR, I've gotten a new appreciation for the first game. It has a ton of charm and the roster as a whole is much better than the sequel
Fret not, you can race solo. There's even a screenshot demonstrating it
Sumo loves doing DLC and did it for both of the All Stars Racing games, I won't be shocked if they added like 3-4 extra teams via DLC

I honestly hope that taking away the transformation means we will get more tracks, one of the weakest points of Transformed was that there were few tracks, a trade off from the fact that they transformed mid race, but now that this mechanic is gone they now have resources to create more tracks
Leo Harris
Carter Roberts
Xavier Watson
Tyler James
Was it his most diabolical plan yet?
Gavin Nelson
Will it have dynamic music?
Jaxson Moore
Yes, he is
Unfortunately no, there's the same amount Transformed had. The setup is 7 Zones, each with 3 Acts. We have Seaside Hill, Planet Wisp, Casino Park, Spagonia, an ice/volcano zone, a sand based zone, and probably an Eggman base
Hunter Powell
Landon Gutierrez
maybe this time, we will have a proper ammount of extension/DLC
Jack Gomez
There's so much DLC potential it isn't even funny. New teams and more zones can be added if they really wanted to
Oliver Moore
>Seaside Hill
Why does Sumo take so much from Sonic Heroes? They've been doing it since SEGA Superstars Tennis.

>we had Yogcast over anything else from sega instead
Brody Sanchez
They must really love that game for some reason. Every Sonic stage in the first All Stars Racing was taken from it, Seaside Hill was the opening stage of both games, etc. It's even the basis for this game. I'm assuming it's due to nostalgia or just to reuse assets
Maybe, maybe not. Guess we'll have to wait and see
Metal Sonic is already in the game though
Ian Russell
That really rustled my chilies.
Jeremiah Smith
Imagine if sega had fully animated intros in the games like sonic cd instead of as promotional material
Juan Adams
When are we getting another sonic cartoon with the same writers

I like this.
