Its been a damn long time...

The skin editor is quite a core feature of the online for some peeps as well so this isn't going to help keep the game alive.

TMX hasn't even been out 2 years and this is the support we get?

I haven't played for a while myself but I am finding the network errors to be as bad as they always were.

A damn shame.

The game is dying.  I myself haven't gotten on in maybe a month or two.  It's also a shame that the only matches ever open are Deathmatch/Team Deathmatch.  There are never Hunted/Nuke/etc. open, and when you host one no one joins.  It's also the same maps over and over.

That network error from last year, when it was released, really did a number on this game. The game wasn't even that great, when compared to the other Twisted Metals anyway, because it was too different.

Basically ESP was making an online only game, but with a network structure that makes it difficult to even play.  The game does have offline, but the AI in this game are frustrating on all levels. 

The gameplay in my opinion is great, though.  Sure, many people will complain because it isn't TM:Black 2/Harbor City/TM2 or whatever, but it has elements from every previous game if you pay enough attention.  Some things are broken, though, such as Meat Wagon's special which is extremely noob friendly.  But overall it's a great game with terrible online structure.

GeneralChaz is right, the game has cars in it just like previous TMs. Also has Sweet Tooth in it and we all know Sweet Tooth is the best car. Those two elements alone make it just as good as previous TMs.

Lets not forget about the missiles that go boom boom. Luckly Spectre wasn't unstoppable due to being immune to ram damage in this game.

With that said, I would like to see Hellbent's opinion on this topic.

Each missile only made a single boom and even then it was more of a bang.

I will not tolerate lies about the booms or bangs of the missiles in TMX.

And your right Kilrgrn. The plutonium in this kind of discussion is still unstable, and will continue to be for a long time.

I just hate having to handle it balancing it on my cock before I can drop it into the damn test tube.

About a week or so ago, I popped the game back in and checked what the online environment was like.

I remember seeing a very large list of rooms online when I got the game. When I popped it in a week ago, there were only two rooms.

I think a lot of people got bored with the game. Or, as Archminion brought up, maybe it was the lack of support online.

No. Your entitled to your opinion if you like. If you think TMX is a great game, by all means your on the right board for it. Talk away!

I'll be standing over here taking large huffs of Helium trying to laugh like Satan.
