>>42803 Fuck, they should've brought him in for this one.

>>42803 I wouldn't have realized if you didn't post the videos side by side. >Except not quite as good It's shit. I want to murder that guy already.

>>42803 >>42804 I was able to listen to it now and yeah, it sounds very similar.

>>42782 But Iizuka is wearing a Sonic shirt and a Shadow medallion and there's Shadow in the bg

>>42808 Yes, but he's nowhere to be found on the setup they have for the game despite so much random shit kek. Yes, I know he's just out of the frame, but still

Is it just me or does Storm's new voice sound like Zomom?

>>42804 You sure made me feel old. It's a classic '90s Sega racing game and one of the first arcade games that I ever saw as a 4 year old boy, period: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6PqjBPGAFo0&list=RD6PqjBPGAFo0 Play it when the opportunity arises. Had it on my PS3 before my console died.

>>42810 I guess a bit? Idk I had to go listen to Zomom's voice, I haven't heard him in ages, but I guess I can hear the similarity.

>>42812 The Deadly 6 look so fucking awkward and shoehorned and are so fucking uninteresting. What would a real Sonic villain other than Eggman look like and what would be their background?

And speaking of the D6, I came across this pic a few days ago and it's probably the coolest D6 thing I remember.

>>42814 I always like Sonic Channel art, but I really don't care about them at all.

>>42816 Last year it was at the end of September, we could still get it

It's kinda frustrating to know that even when they'll reveal the next game we'll still know nothing about it for a while.

>>42819 >People want [to marry] Marine

>>42813 Battle Kukku Army were pretty good. >>42814 I liked these redesigns, although the artist went overboard with Mephiles here. >>42819 Could be a possibility: https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=2mZ3RPfmhLE

>>42818 wake me up in a year Hopefully the next game has some ambition to it.

>>42822 If SEGA is being smart, it will be the most high budget and ambitious Sonic game yet. So it probably won't be

>>42823 You had me at the end. They do seem to be churning out more ambitious and maybe higher budget games.

Not sure if SteamDB is reliable anymore but I thought it'd be interesting to see what it had to say about Crossworlds. The numbers are pretty mild.

>>42825 >Not sure if SteamDB is reliable anymore Are there reasons to think otherwise? >The numbers are pretty mild. They're decently high for Sonic on Steam. I think Frontiers has the highest peak concurrent players, at 19k. Sonic Mania is 11k. Sonic x Shadow Generations is 7k.

>>42825 PC Kart racers never do that well. Ironically, the Switch version will probably sell the most. That price is fucking insane though.

>>42826 >Are there reasons to think otherwise? I think I remember some stuff happened years ago that was going to affect their ability to collect stats. But it was a long time ago, no idea where things stand today.

>>42828 Too bad there aren't similar sites for other platforms.

>>42829 I think there's one for Epic Games.

>>42830 I tend to forget Epic Games even exists lol

>>42829 Come to think of it, since Crossworlds is multiplatform, you could count the numbers players on different platform in your lobby and estimate the sizes of their playerbases by based off of how many Steam players there are.

>>42832 Most of the lobbies I see are majority PC, say 60%. That might be biased if matchmaking tries putting people together with similar platforms though. If you collected enough people's world rankings you could estimate total players using statistics a la the German tank problem https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_tank_problem

>>42833 But wouldn't that give you the total number of people who have ever played the game online instead of just the number of active players? I guess it would work right now since the game's only been out for around a week, but as time goes on the world ranking number will become less and less accurate for determining active players.

>>42833 >if matchmaking tries putting people together with similar platforms I've been told that it does

>>42833 I am almost certain matchmaking tries to have you play with your own platform and also ranking first, I play on Steam and anywhere from about 40% to 80% are PCfags, but I got curious and tried looking at streams of consolefags just to see the pre-race screen, and they barely had anyone on PC. The game also clearly has separate Legend and not-Legend matchmaking. At A+, it was taking 30-45 seconds to match up and had ranks of all sort, at Legend it's all Legendfags and a rare newfag probably if a Legendfag wasn't found. I did also have like 2 times when I got put in a lobby of below Legendfags, probably if the matchmaking decided it needed me to get them to 12 players. Once I got to Legend, my matchmaking times got lowered from 20-45 seconds to 7-20 on average with rare, so I guess most of the playerbase is REALLY dedicated

>>42838 wife

>>42837 They could add in all of the Transformed Tracks (and most of the first party racers) as DLC pretty easily come to think of it.
