A new Hot Fix is available now (Beta v0.9.0.6674). This will be automatically applied to your game, the next time you run the Steam client. If your game is not being updated, please log out of Steam and back in and it should then start the update.

Data miss match issues when in multiplayer
Data miss matches should be a lot better. If you do experience one, close the game down and re-launch.

Crash when changing resolution
Changing to a higher resolution was sometimes producing a crash. This should now be fixed.

Flickering shadow issues
Sometimes skid marks were causing issues where you would get big patches of what looked like flickering shadows.

Crashes due to audio being triggered when no sound card is present
If you didn’t have a sound card in your PC and the game triggered the announcer audio to play, you may have crashed.

Crash on start-up
There were issues on some machines where the game would crash as soon as the Max Splash screen appeared. This should be a lot better.

*Note: As this is a Beta release, from time to time between Beta and full release there may be patches and updates to the game, which may result in your Save game being reset and Career progress lost – including Leaderboard positions (we will do all we can to avoid this, but it’s possible). At the same time, any Challenge progress would also be reset. But that just means you get to have ALL the fun over AGAIN! (Any Achievements that have been unlocked will remain so.)

Everyone who already owns the Early Access build of Carmageddon: Reincarnation will find that their game is ready to be updated to the full Public Beta when they check out their Steam games list on the 14th February.

Yes Carmafans, we’re excited to announce yet another NEW
post-Thanksgiving celebratory retail opportunity day… Brown Thursday!

So, you know how you can currently get a FREE copy of the Carmageddon Max Pack and Carmageddon 2: Carpocalypse Now if you already own or purchase Carmageddon: Reincarnation on Steam Early Access. Yeah! What a great bundle deal!

Well, as of today, Brown Thursday, that bundle has goddamn GROWN!

You know that slightly whiffy leftover turkey lurking at the back of the fridge that you’d normally avoid, but might end up eating, usually by accident, usually when drunk? Well, that’s kind of what we have for you here… Although you might recall it by its other name: Carmageddon TDR 2000! Yes, this old bird has been given a quick sluice-out and pronounced almost fit for human consumption… Because, in a move that some are calling “Their Daftest Hour”, we heroically managed to hold down our leftover turkey lunch for long enough to get Carmageddon TDR 2000 working and on Steam! So, altogether now… woo!

Now, being completely honest here, it’s well known that 1) Stainless didn’t develop TDR 2000 and 2) just about everyone we know thinks that it’s a bit POO. BUT, there’s no accounting for taste, and some people have actually asked us to release it. And so, just for those poor souls (plus anyone else who enjoys getting a “full package”) we’re more than happy to plop it into your Carma collection. And for the rest of us, well…. Maybe give it a spin every now and then to remind everyone what a GREAT JOB we did on Carmageddon 1 and 2!

So, you wonderful Carma peoples, if you already own Carmageddon: Reincarnation, you’ll find that Carmageddon TDR 2000 has also automatically added to your Steam games list. And for those of you who don’t own Carmageddon: Reincarnation, what the hell are you waiting for? Get it on Steam NOW, and get the FULL CARMAGEDDON COLLECTION at the same time, with our compliments… because we LOVES YA!!*

*Yes, even you fans who think TDR is the best in the series. We still loves ya, even though you’re WRONG. And MAD!

http://store.steampowered.com/app/331650/

Health Warning! Please note: Just like that whiffy old turkey, don’t blame us if TDR 2000 consumption is rapidly followed by uncontrollable projectile vomiting and violent diarrhoea!

The sale is now over. Congratulations to everyone who got the game 40% off. Have a great granny splatting weekend!

THAT’S CORRECTIMUNDO… FREE!!! WHO IN THEIR RIGHT MIND COULD RESIST AN OFFER LIKE THAT?

(If you already own the Carmageddon Max Pack or Carmageddon 2: Carpocalypse now, then buying Carmageddon: Reincarnation afterwards will award you a giftable copy of both games. If you already own Carmageddon: Reincarnation, and have yet to redeem your free copy, you should find it in your Steam library.)

That’s right – if you’re one of our Early Access supporters, we want to show you our gratitude in as many ways as possible, and so we’ve decided to make the original Carmageddon and its “DLC” the Splat Pack available to you, free of charge.
