Sensation of Speed Looks Kind of Slow

Hi,

I've been looking forward to this game and I still do but just a little bit less. I just watched a preview and I think overall it looks as great as I thought it looked before but now there's more footage and it seems like you don't really go very fast.

Has this been discussed during development? Do you think it's possible you may be able to speed it up a little bit? I may feel differently after playing but this footage reminded me of OnRush. I really enjoyed OnRush at first but after awhile it just felt boring and I realized while it had a sensation of speed, there was no turning and no real racing mechanics in it.

Rogue Shift looks like it kind of goes slow. Again, I still think it looks cool and fun but the speed doesn't look great.

The truck (Clunker) is either the slowest or the 2nd slowest. Then the one with the laser is average across the board for all its stats. The Hawk GT has one of the higher top speeds, but slow acceleration and most of the clips there are straightaways in wide open areas so it dulls the sense of speed (learning where to wall ride will help you maintain top speed). And the OG Eagle it does seem like it's being driven slow. We had a team member go berserk with the OG Eagle and this is the race he recorded (on a figure eight course that's small so we could get the total race time to be within YT Shorts limitations lol) https://x.com/playcarmageddon/status/2016357476002681105?s=20

The cars can go faster. I switched my speedometer to mph, and certain cars "out of the box" can go 120mph or faster. With boost and speed perks, you can push them even faster.

Definitely worth watching the Gameplay Trailer (YouTube link in the below steam news post), as nothing was sped up in the editing of the video.

Awesome. Thank you. I had seen that one before and it's a truly epic trailer. It does look much faster but that could just be super badass editing.

In the preview I linked, is he just lower level with slower cars? Cuz it's not the speedometer I'm looking at, it's the actual movement.
