Zaacar

I was quite excited when I saw that Zaacar was a measly $2.39 during the Summer Sale. Sadly, I don't think it's worth that right now. It's far too unfinished, even for an early access game. [b]TL;DR: Terrible vehicle handling, cars feel weightless. Barely any vehicle sounds. No one is playing. Can't unlock anything in bot matches and bots are braindead. Vehicle designs are just boring cars with Mad Max stuff thrown on them. Lastly, this game runs horribly (40-50 fps) on a 3080/i7 9700K.[/b] The vehicle handling is some of the worst I've felt in a racing game. Every vehicle feels weightless, if you try to make the smallest of turns you'll be greeted by your car going sideways into a sharp drift. I tried both with and without the drift control option and it didn't help at all. Additionally, sound in this game is [i]abysmal[/i]. There's barely any vehicle sounds. You can sort of hear each car's engine whining, but that's all there is for vehic…

Just for clarity I got the game key for free for testing the game. Its a fun game we don't get many combat car games. 50 players with bots or people 2 modes currently in the game, race and arena. The cars tend to drift around corners its quite controllable with a controller, might be slightly tricky with keyboard. Its fun racing with others, especially when you get your weapons on lap 2. The game needs work but hopefully it will become a really good car combat game.

Its great fun to see cars get destroyed and see stuff left and right. Full car destruction is a banger.

Going to give this one a recommend with some major caveats. There is a solid foundation here for a good combat racer but in it's current form I'd recommend it only to those who really love car combat as these types of games are few and far between. At full price your mileage will vary, I'd recommend waiting for a sale. I paid full price and don't necessarily regret the purchase, I will keep the game in hopes of it receiving future updates. However, the game has not received an update for around 10 months at the time of this writing, so the chance of it receiving future updates is probably not great. The game looks fine, nothing here will wow you but it won't hurt your eyes either. Can't comment on multiplayer as I hate playing multiplayer games but the single play races are fine for what they are. You can set up matches with up to 50 bots in either arena combat or combat racing. Here you can earn money to buy more cars and a decent selection of upgrades. I think there are 5 cars and around 5 race courses and 5 arenas if I remember correctly. As for gameplay the main issue is the handling of the cars. Even with a controller I found myself slipping around the track like …
