The Cancelled Crash Team Racing Game - In Depth Look

Ойындар

Back in 2009, a brand new Crash Team Racing game was being developed that was unfortunately cancelled / reworked into Dreamworks Superstar Kartz. The only footage of it is this nearly 3 minute clip showing off some of the gameplay.

    CTR 2010 was canceled because it was associated to Crash Landed. That project was canceled, so this one was canceled too because that racing game had no reason to exist without its mainline game. Also yes, all the work that was put into CTR 2010 was repurposed as that Dreamworks racing game. It would have been a waste not to do so, I mean, still better than no racing game at all

    One of the developers on this game, Dave Goodrich, started streaming recently, and he said he took the idea for modding the karts from his pride and joy, Vigilante 8. I think he mentioned he has some test footage, but that might just be the video shown here. He has come concept art from some of his other games, so maybe he has some stuff written down from this project. Also, on the topic of cancelled Crash games, a YTer was rummaging thru an old developer model XBox from the 2000's, and he found some files for a Crash/Spyro crossover kart racer. It's a fully playable demo, and has a delightfully cursed intro FMV, but there isn't too much known about it.

    This lost CTR game was meant to tie into Crash Landed, which it lost it's leadership which lacked direction thus production grinded to a halt and the project got binned not long after, Activision Blizzard was betting hard on this reboot for Crash Bandicoot and even already spent money on promotional work including a McDonald's deal which because of the project's slow pace it wasn't meant to be and CTR 2010 was just another casualty added to the list.

    I don't know who wrote the reason for the cancellation of CTR2010 on Bandipedia, but they are absolutely wrong. CTR2010 was a project inextricably connected to Crash Landed (or I Am Crash Bandicoot or, again, Crash Of The Bandicoots, that was the final name submitted to Activision). With the cancellation of Landed, its dedicated spin-off was also cancelled and turned into something else (DreamWorks SuperStar Kartz). The development of Landed and CTR2010 began already when Activision Blizzard had been born for quite some time.

    I really like what I see in this trailer, the mod kart system is really unique, the trick animations look pretty cool, and everything else was just fine. Its a shame this didn't got finished and got its proper release and I would love if the next Crash team racing game takes notes from this. Also if you are discovering a trailer of a canceled Activision game, why not check out the two obscure Family Guy road to death trailers that the game was changed to back to the multiverse because Seth MacFarlane complained that it was to violent & bloody and that he Didn't want a Family Guy Zombie shooter.

    All of these customization options do seem promising, the problem is that if these were released today under Activision, i'm sure all of it would miscrotransactioned lootbox garbage. And keep in mind, Nitro Fueled was already pretty harshly criticized for it's microtransactions even when the kart modification was only purely cosmetic. AKA this would be just be more of what Rumble and On the Run did, sadly...

    Oddly enough it reminds me of Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity. Though, in that game racers are divided by classes: Speed, Fly and Power if I'm not wrong. They can use their advantages to get to new faster routes depending on the stage itself. Knuckles for example can punch a wall blocking a shortcut, Tails can fly as long as there are rings to do it and Sonic...I don't really remember.

    You never played nickelodeon kart racer 2 grand prix? It has the mod feature and i think its balanced. What i think the problem with modding the car is that the level force you into choosing the mod instead of it being option. Solution? You need to make a really good level that has multiple shortcuts and obstacles that can be passed by different mods so whatever mod you take, you will always find a use for it in every level. That way the mod will be something the player choose based on their play style and not based on the level. Small example: a level with 2 different short cuts one require a mod to dive into water and the other mod to fly. That way, people who like the dive control will take the water mod while people who like the flying control will take the fly mod. Both shortcuts will save the same time.

    Honestly, it would have been a good step up as a sequel as opposed to getting more of the same. This would have been hella better than Crash Tag Team Racing. Speaking of which, this reminds me of a like mix of Tag Team Racing art with ideas of Mario Kart Double Dash and Mario Kart wii. The whole kart customization would be quickly ripped apart to use the most optimized set while forgetting about the rest. In nitro fueled, I did say that "Engine Swap" was going to be a "Bandaid fix" and wouldnt solve the core problem, and i was 100% correct. The meta was Speed or Drift. Any other engines if you pick, you put yourself in disadvantage for no real reward, besides boosting one's ego.

This is what I often call the Crash community the bastard child of Strong Bad and James Jonah Jameson.

    @@deoxysandmew2162 My idea evolved a bit over time, but one of the ones I kept falling back on was based on a scrapped concept we got wit the Drift engine initially. Remember how the Drift engine could reach a higher powerslide boost speed? Well, what if the Acceleration stat for each engine affected that mechanic? I.e. the Speed and Drift engines get no boost speed until they hit a turbo pad while Acceleration and Balance get a lot! It was so significant in fact, in the early days of the Drift engine, it was the best option for Slide Coliseum because there were no turbo pads on that track. It's only one step in a broader balancing system, but it could level out the playing field somewhat. My other idea involved the brake-slide and its emphases on U-turning. Long of short, higher Turn stat means better brake-slide turning while lower Turn stat means weaker.

But probably too easily exploitable and would tip the balance the other way entirely. Still, it was a concept at least - and not ultimately too dissimilar to mine. One last thing I also thought of later on was to completely redo the Balance engine AS the Balance engine of 5-5-5. Because currently its stats are more like 3-6-6. But so as to not lose the old Balance engine, it would become its own engine - one that I like to call Rally. (As a subtle reference to rally cars which have great acceleration and handling but not a lot of top speed.)

    The issue with mods you're missing, tracks only have so much space and only so many mods are useful on a track. The idea people would use different things is neat and true for the first few days. Then people learn the tracks and each one has an optimal mod set. Many mods won't work, or the lack of shortcuts means aggressive mods are the focus. It all breaks really quickly. It gets even worse if they manage to "balance" them to all be viable. Then you end up with aggressive/defensive ones being key. Stuff like the Frog Engine could be used to jump over used items and take shortcuts. So you're left with a game where you're constantly switching out mods to stand a chance or stuck using the same few mods endlessly to stand a chance. At least from a PvP perspective, in PvE this could be a non-issue since you just have to win and AI often rubberbands meaning anything could work unless they really mess it up.

    Nah it's an easy fix really, at least in terms of ideas, just design different sections on the tracks useful for different mods, or give each of them both a buff and a debuff. Sure some will be better than others, but not by much. I mean I'm sure a lot of mods would have been cut from the game, so balancing the rest would be easier. And even with the meta well-known and understood people would still be interested in playing for fun, experimenting with builds, or deliberately making garbage builds for the lulz

    In all honesty, if we get a second Crash racing game, it probably won't do as well as CTR. I don't know why, but the further you go down the line with Crash's racing history(CTR, NK, CTTR) the sales dropped following the next. Nitro Kart did worse than the original and Tag Team did worse than Nitro Kart. A second game would not sell as much as Nitro Fueled. This is a personal opinion.

Would the remakes, crash 4 and rumble even exist? Would we see crash games released on systems like the 3ds and ps vita and games on ps4 and xbone earlier on in thier lifespan? Would crash landed become the default style going forward, and how would activision treat the games, would they pump out a new one each year like they did with skylanders or would they give devs more time to cook?
