Greetings! I finally got around to take a look at this game after some time, and found out that the rules were in a pretty bad state. As such, I (after getting a greenlight) have decided to make some changes.
These are the changes:
-
Changed timing method from "confirming a race" to "opening the career menu" for all the categories. This is because it is possible to buy a car and upgrades with the timer still being stopped. Similar timing method has been used for other FlatOut titles in the past, and has been changed as well.
-
Changed rules for "completion of classes". Until now, all you had to do was finish all the cups with races (following the example of FO2). However, FlatOut 2 would consider the class completed on 100% without completing the bonus events, which is not the case in this game. The achievement "Speed Junkie", which is being awarded for completing the career, does not trigger until you finish all categories on 100% in-game as well. Because of this, it has been decided that from now on, you have to finish the Time Trial/Survivor events as well in order to finish said category.
-
Removed "Classic class" and "All-Star class" categories from the leaderboard. We don't have savefiles ready for these (unlike with FO1 and FO2) which would create an uneven playing field. These categories might come back in the future.
With this, the leaderboards should be ready for your potentional submissions. See you there! :)
