The nice thing is, once you kinda figure out one car, the rest get a little easier. Also there's a new version of the track that should work properly now, the old one got broken with the recent game updates.

@@shiftsandgiggles thanks so much for the update

it certainly would :)

Thanks 🙂

Check the community section 😁

@@shiftsandgiggles lord thank you

Sorry the game didn't work out for you. Many of the big issues have or are being fixed of late, so given some time, it may be worth another look.

Got level to load but no textures? Any idea on what I can do to fix this?

The track was mostly broken with the last update, I've been chipping away at fixing it and I'll upload that version when its done. You can still play on this version if you got it, but the christmas tree and timing system doesn't function. There's a post in the community section that shows where to install it. Just note that the game version is different now.

I have, most of the vanilla cars I've built will blow up long before getting to the finish line if not right on the starting line. I hope this isn't a permanent thing, otherwise there's no point having stage 4 superchargers and stage 3 performance blocks and whatnot if they can't actually be used for anything.

@shiftsandgiggles unfortunately in the 0.34 patch notes they put that they changed the performance metrics and even have changed the configs to allow for the new engine changes. I think it’s permanent because they are going off of that old engines can’t hold a lot of power. It’s a change they might have come up with along with the bruckell 9 as they wanted to make the older motors more realistic. I think it’s quite annoying as the performance parts have been the representation of modern performance stuff and with that the power figures make plenty of sense. Even the radiators only working for around a quarter mile is realistic. Maybe with the remaster those cars need there will be a resto mod chassis option as has been done with the new 9 allowing for a new v8 that allows for high horsepower builds that don’t have old fashioned frames that lead to driveshaft snapping like on the Barstow and Burnside occasionally. Idk I’m just disappointed at this change as like I was with the decrease in the performance ability of the inline 4 with the bx remaster the devs should be giving us more of a performance range to work with instead of further restricting the power we can achieve without using mods

Good question, I've only really run these things the full 1/4 on the racetracks and haven't got back to most of them since the devs added the timeslip app, so I really can't say what the times look like. If they un-nerf the engine's in an upcoming update I'll bring them back and find out. Most of these cars would blow up by half track if they're even able to get off the starting line as the game is now.

@shiftsandgiggles not sure if the timeslip app works for 1/8th. But adamsadvanceddistancetimer has 1/8 and 1/4 along with 60ft time, works great for drag racing

Unfortunately a lot of the engines have been nerfed in the recent update, most of the cars here will likely blow today with the setups used here. I hope that gets fixed or rolled back to what it was.

@ I was wondering cause I was like I just watched him do it why doesn’t it work

@@unknown_knight yeah its sucks, if its a permanent thing than I'll have to rebuild almost everything but I really hope that's not the case

Well said, and it is encouraging to see all the recent work that's getting done as a result of this, I'm looking forward to seeing where this all goes.

Sorry, the map was broken in the last update, I've been working on a new version that might hopefully be less prone to becoming obsolete next time that happens.

Then I got NHRA and had to refund it after one minute of playtime as there was no graphics settings available and buttons could not be customized. I play on 21:9 and the image was very stretched and low quality. I could walk up the aliasing. Textures like the custom helmets seem like they never load and are just smudges of colors. Drag racing is gettin skrewed in video games.

I had the same issue, its a fairly recent issue. I ended up using a different button for downshift. With everything else going on, that one slipped my mind, sorry, should have mentioned that. There have been a lot of bug fixes already since this video was released, the dev is paying attention, hopefully that one gets resolved soon.

100% Agree

I agree, it has a lot of issues, and my review video for it may not paint a glowing picture, but it does have the potential to be something we play for quite some time.

I didn't forget them, if it didn't come up in the video its because it got cut for time, sorry. A couple of those were really great, especially for the time they were released. I may have to do an Ultimate Drag Game video sometime where I come up with the perfect game using the best parts of everything that's come out to date. In that scenario, I think I would talking about a couple of the IHRA titles quite a lot.

@@shiftsandgiggleswould love that Man, I’ve been trying to get into drag racing simulators but don’t even know where to start, beaming and bounty seem to be the only realistic titles out there

@@unclebob7875 Yeah that about sums it up, if we could combine the best of both we'd be set.

Ihra motorsports from 2003 had the best and most realistic tuning capability’s ever made you could build a car that would run within 1/10s of a real build. And the options were endless

I'm sold 😁

@@whodawhattha84 The PC version of IHRA Nothing But Attitude was really great, the endless build possibilities, realism, custom rule sets etc made it one of the best, although it had a few issues of its own that were never resolved to make online play all that viable. The PS2 version was a slightly stripped down version of that and I would rather forget about the xbox version.

@@shiftsandgiggles in my opinion the only thing that I find unfavorable about bounty is the tuning and build mechanics if it were similar to that of ihra it would be unmatched.

@@whodawhattha84 I think the physics could use some work as well, to make the cars drive more realistically, and with a greater sense of the power and speed, but other than that, I agree.

I'm not sure what the long term plans are but I don't think it involves publishers with it already a full release title. Marketing is pretty much limited to what you see on this channel and the odd streamer, in other words, word of mouth only. That can still work if the game is of a high enough quality that word gets around and its able to grow a player base rather than struggle to maintain the one it has.

That's fun too, but beamng isn't entirely the smoothest experience in itself, especially when you start getting more than a handful of cars in a lobby. As critical as I am about Bounty, its much simpler to get in and have properly timed and scored races and events.

I would love that, BeamNG physics are really great fun, but, I'm still not convinced that the developers actually understand drag racing enough to pull it off even if it was on their radar. From Mad Max looking default drag vehicles to the weird Drag missions where winners are determined by anything but the first car to the finish line in order to achieve mission stars.

@@shiftsandgiggles Yea thats totally Fair! I feel like the direction for Beam is too far from what a drag sim or console style/career mode would be. Hopefully we get a solid mod OR the RLS career mod has some more drag mission improvements. I def have my fingers crossed for a solid entry soon!

I'll probably have a look at that before too long, the latest big update seems to have nerfed the engine durability of most of the unmodded cars that I've tried. I'm going to hold off on some of that for a bit in hopes that some dev just messed up and that gets fixed.

I agree, especially for the quality of what you get in comparison to similar DLC for any other game under for any other racing genre.

I can but there are no ai opponents and it's very rare that there are bike events within the community of late. Someone will put on a grudge bike race every once in a while but that's about it. To be honest, they could use some work to make them more playable.

@ yeah i aint gone lie man they need some more work i played not too long ago the cars a fine but the bikes need more time n work

The game and most of the dlc is 30% off at the moment and many of the issues that were pointed out in the video are now either fixed or in the process, so there's probably never been a better time to jump in if your interested.

It definitely is, its a whole different challenge.

I look forward to seeing you in the lanes someday then. Make sure to find your way over to the Bounty Discord when you do.

I can bring it up, but I don't see it happening. It works on steam decks I think but that's as mobile as your likely going to get. It's not yet at the point where it works and runs smoothly on PC's, I can't imagine it would work too well on a cell phone as it currently is.

@@shiftsandgiggles ok thanks for the reply man keep it going bro

Thanks, sorry I forgot to bring up all the sponsors that make this game possible as well, I appreciate it and I'm sure the rest of the community does as well. I feel like we're all in this together of sorts, I look forward to seeing things develop. I would love nothing more than to see this grow into something we're all really proud of and I look forward to showing it off here as it happens.

Thank you very much for this response, this was the toughest video I've made for this channel yet and I wasn't sure how this would be received. I'm glad you understand, you do have a small and dedicated community, myself included, that will stick around throughout the games life cycle, my intention here was to provide enough honest feedback to the issues that may be turning players away rather than drawing them in. You have the bones for a great game, when fleshed out and working properly, I don't see any reason why it can't last for as long as your willing and able to support it outside of loss of interest and community support. Drawing in new players is one thing, keeping them is another. I'll go on trying to do what I can to draw them in for as long as your able to do your part to keep them. I really miss and look forward to doing more event coverage and tutorials and such soon.

I love the game it just definitely needs refining. Here for the long haul!!!!!!🎉🎉🎉

I agree with shiftsandgiggles you definitely have the bones for an awesome game. Me and my brothers have had a long on going grudge racing rivalry for yrs lol with drag racing games that started with IHRA Drag Racing 2. We have actually picked your title to continue it 😂. So please dig in and add all the meat you can to those bones and you'll definitely build a fan wagon for this games. I look forward to seeing what you do Boss!!

a fact…. This is what the gaming industry needs (this game) it has so much potential and wish I can help with the game I have both game development and real world knowledge in the automotive industry

Unfortunately, its a bit of a neglected class at the moment. I don't think there's ever been an event that's used them in the Bounty community to date. I would love to see them get some attention in the physics and tuning department so they're more likely to get some use someday, they are very cool.

@ same I love the top fuel bikes irl

@@RedNeckMedia101 Yeah they're about as cool as it gets in the sport.

@ agreed

lol I thought I was being nice here 🤔 I actually had a small clip from Kaos in this at one point, I think it compares favorably so far, I wouldn't worry too much 😁

That would be cool actually and may even allow him to concentrate more on the essentials while allowing the community to supply some better produced content. I don't see it happening but I don't mind being wrong sometimes, we'll see.

@@shiftsandgiggles I would have to say that was one of my biggest disappointments when searching mod support on Steam forums. So many possibilities with a mod framework or workshop support in place.

@@xNightflyerx I have mixed feelings about mods. I think they're great for single player games and open world sandbox multiplayer stuff, but for more focused racing titles I've found that they tend to dilute the player bases when it gets to the point of too many. It becomes a chore to keep up with the mods you need to be able to race in any particular lobbies, series etc.. DLC can have a similar diluting effect in a lot of racing titles, but to Bounty's credit, the tracks are free and you get at least one free car for every class in the game so your never left out based on the content you have.

Lol, wondered what was going on

Thank you very much, we'll have to see how it goes. I love being a part of the community and I love making content for it, I don't plan to stop if I can help it.

Thank you very much, glad you enjoyed 😁

I would recommend you use the option to start the cars with cold engines if your not already, that may be the issue. The Moonhawk's got a short fuse and will usually start hurting itself by the time it gets to the finish line, starting cold should at least keep it from blowing up.

@@shiftsandgiggleswhere is that setting located I can’t find anything in the vehicle config

@@ndk_natek6297 You can find the option under gameplay settings
