Split / Second: Velocity (computer game)

Customer Review

Split / Second, the major TV event of the 21st century, at least in the virtual world of the new action-Racers. Daring evasive maneuvers, extreme explosions and even plane crashes have drivers take on their track in purchase to winner of this breakneck race to be. Keeps Split / Second: Velocity what it promises? Are there any game we've never been before? Not only I am wondering what it has to offer the new game from Disney so.

Crazy Ideas

The Black Rock Studios and Disney have shown already in 2008 with the ATV frenzy "Pure", that they can develop fun fun and action with Raser crazy actions and courses. Now Split / Second Velocity comes with full throttle and therefore contributes significantly the prompt: "No Risk No Fun". The game takes place on the fictitious race tracks that have been specially equipped for this special race. The background of this event is a TV show. You should present the audience of the future spectacular race with a lot of destruction. Explosive devices to the circuit, other kinky preparations will let the race run hot. It starts with a test you have to pass. This test is but rather a tutorial in which you all will be shown what you need to know for the race. Have you passed the test, you can compete in the new season. This consists of a total of 12 episodes, each with about 6 events.

There are several racing variants, which are very varied. On the one hand there are the normal placement races where you can let go of a button explosives or sudden obstacles to the opponents. Then there are races that you have to manage alone. This includes, for example, that you attacked a combat helicopter and you have to dodge as many missiles at full throttle. In another challenge exploding barrels are thrown from a moving truck, which has to be dodged again. Here, however, a first weak point of the game is striking, because sometimes it seems not yet been developed so completely thought through and finished. The barrels explode immediately on contact, touching or rams her but the 8 tonne truck felt at 300 km / h happens nothing and continue you can without hindrance. That leaves the action often look ridiculous.

Weaknesses

Since we are on the weak points, overall, the arcade frenzy feels great, but somehow lacking different interaction possibilities. The players remain basically namely only the ability to control the car or to activate one of the two attack / action sequences. This happens either a small or large fireworks. The ramming of opponents does not help and does not trigger a crash, also there is no boost or similar. Compared with other action racing games makes you feel limited too strong in the interaction. Split / Second Velocity is also the first racing game with no clear race start signal, after a quick look on the car to go directly going.

Gameplay: The action bar is divided into three sections and can with drifts and Drafts (lee) are charged. Is the third section also fully the big fireworks can be released. This includes complete route changes that continue to do so during the race and almost always set by huge explosions and widespread destruction in scene. That there was so far in this genre has never and is a major plus point of the new Disney Racers. The remaining obstacles Action bar and smaller explosions can be triggered where often also flies once a destroyed bus to the race track. It says: reaction! Otherwise: Crash! This action is undoubtedly a huge fun factor and motivates action Quiet constantly refill. The difficulty is not necessarily easy. The races are challenging and attacking helicopters make life not easy. Nevertheless, this level of difficulty increases the tension in the good and annoying rarely. Whoever wants to be first must be neat but fight. Through good rankings earned their credits which enable gradually new car. Of course, Split / Second offers to provide you the opportunity your skills online against human driver to the test. However, there are only three of the six variants of races available.

Explosive splendor

Noteworthy is the graphical implementation, starting with the very realistic light rays of the sun shining through the skyscraper canyons to the oversized explosions, let the whole blocks go into the air. And it all takes place in a stable framerate and ingenious sense of speed. Remnants and grime of explosions that summarizes the fire can get out of the screen remain on the camera hang and give the feeling of being right in the middle. Adrenaline flowing through your veins while passing shoots at full throttle on a falling giant concrete part and on the horizon already flying a crashing airplane to be seen. The great sound support this feeling, because the engines sound a pithy and genuine, the explosions and loud music directly and the cinematic. Overall, the scenery and the action is reminiscent of a genius Hollywood blockbuster. That's Split / Second Velocity.

Conclusion

Finally a blockbuster in the genre Action Racer. With Burnout should Split / Second Velocity not compare, because it's something completely different. It's something new that did not exist previously, because in which racing game plunge television or radar towers with 70 meters of the race track? Where exploding a suspension bridge while away roars with 300 km of them? Only with Split / Second. The great graphics and the ingenious sound support this breakneck action and can ignore the rare unfinished acting portions of the game. Overall, I would therefore recommend this game action racing game fans. I give the tip at least five or six races to go in order to make an informed judgment, because at least then you unpacked the rapid Hollywood action atmosphere.
