EDIT: Hell, I even gave myself negative rep.

Someone's butthurt. I absolutely loved Cale's blue BadBoy. I'd love that scheme on a guitar!

Is this a real truck coming out?

Yep, lets use those. Nice work crazy!

I'm signing in just to comment on how badass that is.

So, we now have an accurate gunslinger/grinder/destroyer...etc...body.., but we're not going to use them and let the old ones stay?

Wait we found a way to rip stuff from POD?

I have no problem with that. tbh, it's more like /o/ with monster trucks.

will these all be eventually put in the next truckpack update?

Oggy: lol, MJMD has a bunch of old models from the TNN era Steve: really? Can I have it? Oggy: gives torrent link

Wow, OP is a *******. The game was just announced. JUST ANNOUNCED. Expected to be released Q2 2011, and yet there's a demo out for it already, almost 7 months before the expected release date? *****, you just went full retard...

Talked to patriotic canadian about it, it's going to be impossible to rip from the Wii version, unless LF finds a different way. The truck models really are 100x better. FS layouts are batpoo insane, but they would be fun just to dick around on. Minneapolis is a legit layout though. Give it a rental. You'll run through it in three hours.

Posted this over in RORMJ. Some exclusive people in here, so they might want to see it -------- Impressions. Ask me anything you want to know. POSITIVES - Truck models look beautiful on my 1080i monitor. Major graphical improvements everywhere else. - Chicago style racing in a few stadiums, J-Style everywhere else - "Stadium Circuits" are ok. Nice that they still kept the MJ event feeling and not LOL ONTO THE STREETS FOR AN ALL OUT RUMBLE WITH YOUR FAVOURITE MONSTER JAMS bullpoo like UA/07 - Obstacles are creative, and I wouldn't mind if someone imported the FS tracks in PoD into Rigs of Rods just to dick around with. San Diego FS is wicked, I don't care how unrealistic it is. - Truck setup screen isn't much, but can make freestyle realistic. Pick the "throttle out" setting for freestyle, much more realistic handling. You won't win any events, but I like it. - Stadiums are accurate. Not sure about the surroundings, but everything looks generally like it should. Main highlight being Orlando. - There is no generic skin for the stadiums, the boss truck logos are still there. I personally don't mind them. - Minneapolis looks incredible, and IMO, it should be converted asap. The three tier jump in the middle would be nuts in ROR, and it's the perfect scale. - MaxD looks a lot better ingame than in the screenshots. The body looks miles better than the past games - Scott Douglas commentates a lot more. There's an annoying guy comparable to a spotter or crew chief like in nascar, but he's tolerable. NEGATIVES - Vegas racing layout isn't entirely accurate. Reminds me more of the Orlando setup a few years ago. - Freestyle is still driving around randomly and hitting poo without thinking much. Always liked the scoring system the games have had, but winning still requires 10 backflips and barrel rolls. - Some ramps throw the truck into a corkscrew automatically. Not bad for freestyle, but in Stadium Circuits, it becomes a pain in the buns. - Truck creator features about 50 decals in all. Huge potential (I was still able to whip up something average in like five minutes), but there's not even any letters to put on the truck - Why is the game promoting Mohawk Warrior so heavily? He's the goddamn boss truck for Vegas! - Stadium racing takes all of 30 seconds to complete. Two races, 10 seconds each, plus another five for having to mash A or X when the bracket comes up - Took just under four hours to get Gold Medals in every event on hard difficulty. Bought the game at five, started at 5:30, finished at 9:00, got picked up for the black ops launch 20 minutes later cause my bud wanted to finish career mode too. So if you want to rip all the models, spend an afternoon playing it and you've finished the game. - You can't pull a sky wheelie off of cars. - Certain ramps make you do certain tricks. You can only do backflips on certain ramps. You can only do sky wheelies on ramps painted like an american flag. You can only do slap wheelies on two or three FS maps in the game - Truck settings consist of three presets. Top Speed, Great Acceleration, and "Crowd Pleaser" (freestyle setting, absolutely useless in racing). - No difference in handling of the trucks, unlocking upgrades (which are automatically applied) don't do poo. - There is a turbo button. Not a big deal for me, as it doesn't increase top speed. Only acceleration. Use it when you're in the low gears. - My biggest issue: It is impossible to roll the truck over. It sits on the side until you mash the turbo button, and spin it around until it magically uprights itself. - There is a respawn button in Freestyle. Past games didn't have that. Wonder why it made it in now? If you use it, you're not allowed bonus time. - Can't find a camera view I like. Chase Far has a loveed up FOV, Chase Near has a good FOV but is a bit too zoomed in on the back of the truck. - No XBOX Live support. Any more questions. Won't do a video, cause ^ sums it up pretty well.

I promise I will do a no-bullpoo demonstration of this game, commenting on everything I see the first time. Joking about the Tacoma death, knowing full well the only people watching the video are monster jam diehards who hated how it and the Dan Patrick accident made our sport look, is the dumbest poo you could do. Imagine if you made a video expressing your thoughts about the latest NASCAR race, and you made a joke about Alan Kulwicki. The only people watching it are NASCAR fans, and they will rip your buns to pieces. I will admit, I have very little compassion for almost anything in my life, but when you joke around about a serious incident and the only people listening to you were in tears when they heard about the death for the first time on mayhem, that's a no-no. It may be funny to some people, and I get that. Holocaust jokes are funny. Tell one of them to a jew, however, and you'll be lucky to get three meters before your head is kicked around like a soccer ball. The game runs on the same physics engine as Monster 4x4: Masters of Metal. It's clear as day. I played it on my emulator a few times, and when I saw the first legit gameplay footage of PoD, I almost poo my pants. That's right, they just re-used an 8 year old game engine. Even the career mode hub and truck select screen is the same. On the plus side, we have chicago style racing. And Grinder's "home track" is as close to a real layout as we asked for. Some arcade features, they kind of did it right. On the negative side, there was a lot of bullpoo. The trucks just don't land right, almost the way they did in Masters of Metal. I'm starting to think they took Masters of Metal and updated it a bit. They are still getting my money, and I will still play it and complete it, and it'll be a game I'll play when I'm bored.

Let me know if you guys want anything. I can't even upload my kiss one. The pic is too big.

There's usually the odd comment or two on each video about how Rigs of Rods is better.

I really want to respond to this so: DISCLAIMER, THIS MIGHT BE LONG Oh jesus, you are going to get torn apart. You are right that it will be the best official Monster Jam game. The last two were clones of the Bugbear game "FlatOut" and "FlatOut2". They even copied the same themes. MJ07 was based on the first Flatout, which featured mainly off road tracks. UA featured much more city racing, and even threw in minigames almost identical to FlatOut 2's. The reason I enjoyed MJ07 and UA is because they are both essentially FlatOut with Monster Trucks. Keep that in mind the next time you fire either of them up, and the game becomes a lot more fun. We really don't know who actually developed this new game yet. They do seem to have put a lot more time into it. The stadiums are downright GORGEOUS. Each track will have 3 separate freestyle layouts and racing layouts (this shows we'll have a multiple year career mode), I've confirmed that there IS Chi-Town layout racing by looking at several screenies back to back, and we have a create-a-truck feature similar to backbreaker or forza 3. I cannot make a truck for the life of me on the computer, but on the console, it takes me less than 20 minutes to produce something sweet. I have high hopes for this game. It wont suck as much as you guys think it will. We now go into full retard mode now. ROR has to many problems and it ain't sold for ps3 or psp or xbox 360 or wii or ds so therefore that's why i'm saying this cause it will be the best one so far and no one wants to get on the computer every time they want to drive You are a dumbass. Just because a game isn't sold for a console doesn't mean it sucks. By your logic, NR2003, FSX, iRacing, XPlane, rFactor, GTR2, Grand Prix Legends... All suck. Im going to keep it simple: One of the guys paid to endorse the Activision game, Adam Anderson, as well as Chris Bergergergergergeron, both have ROR installed on their laptops and say it's miles better than the activision crap. They got the game back when we were using concrete ramps. Adam's truck isn't even in the Activision game. RIGS OF RODS Has to many errors so who care's if the frames r wrong just deal with it far as i can tell ya'll never seen the chasis either cause all of them are wrong so if you want a real game buy mj:pod!!!!!!!!!!!! I have almost no rights on any forum, but you should really be kicked out from both sites. I don't know if you actually READ any goddamn thing on here, but all of the trucks we use have been ripped from the Activision MJ games, and will be updated to their correct standards as time progresses, which is what both sites are doing. We know what we're talking about. I'd say maybe 10+ active members in this community are track crew for MJ events or actual truck crew members. They see these trucks up close better than any souvenir book your poor buns can buy. You're starting to sound like an 11 year old kid, or a really pooty rip-off cortez1. Makes it seem more like you saw our videos on youtube, had to get daddy to install the game, and couldn't go more than 10 seconds without rolling the truck and being dumb enough to think "oh no, I have to exit the game and repick a truck and track so my truck starts on its wheels again." I'm amazed at how you found this site in the first place. Maybe we should stop promoting ROR on the MJ video game facebook page so we dont attract idiots like this guy.

how the hell would activision not know about this?

Liquid, what store did you see it at? I'm looking forward to the game. As long as it's based in stadiums, I will be happy. No more "Flatout" ripoffs.

I might make it. If I show up for the drivers meeting, I'm there

That's my favourite post on any forum, ever.
