All-Stars Racing Transformed: The Track Roster Thread

I don't mind seeing Seaside Hill again. The place looking awesome.

Well, at least there's Starlight Carnival.

I really wonder if we'll see anything crazy in the six remaining tracks. My hope for a giant Tomato Mart stage still stands strong...

[Dark Flame Master]

Hang Castle could be really cool! I'd also like to see some tracks like maybe Metal Harbor, Lost World, Launch Base Zone, or Ice Cap Zone; off the top of my head.

[Sega DogTagz]

Jungle Joyride would have been a phenomenal choice for a game like this (you could even mix in some Lost World in there if you wanted too). Its got everything you could want from a land-sea-air perspective.

Normally I'd be disappointed that such a great stage more than likely missed the cut, but to be perfectly honest outside of Seaside Hill I'm pretty stoked about what we did get. Starlight Carnival looks like a real treat and (this may be the pilot in me talking) I am really excited to get my hands on that after burner stage.

Who knew Aircraft carriers on an open sea would make for such a cool looking racing stage.

[FourCartridge]

SumoSpartan has confirmed 5 total arenas. Presumably they share IPs with the tracks.

[DaN]

As arenas I'd like to see a Casino themed level for Sonic, a desert from Super Monkey Ball, A Jet Set radio themed, an Outrun themed with beach and mostly a Christman NiGHTS themed with snow and christmas feeling

I'm not worried if the arenas shares the same IPs of the tracks. I'm worried if they shares the same trope... I don't want a Seaside Hill arena FFS. You know what would make an excellent Sonic arena in my worthless opinion? A 3D Blast level *points Diamont Dust*.

Remember that some arenas may have different vehicle types.

So if there's a Seaside Hill arena expect it to be water-based.

I hope Starlight Carnival has some Eggman PA Announcements.

New ones.

Funny new ones.

Most people probably didn't hear the old ones. for some reason the volume on those were way too low. Either way, some PA Announcements would be a welcome addition. Cram on in right at the starting gate, or maybe close to some of the course hazards.

[AnimatedAF]

But wouldn't it be a bit odd hearing Eggman speak on PA announcements while he is also on the track racing? Would be better for Eggman himself to have some of his funnier lines, maybe when he wins or loses.

When I go online... I intend to pick Eggman and do various eggman impressions over the voice chat system when I race...

Sometimes I sing too.

PA messages can be pre-recorded

(like they were in one of those final scenes back in Colors. Eggman told himself to "shut up" if I recall correctly ^^)

[Ruhm]

I don't think they'll have the PA Announcements since he's racing, and I am sure even he would be annoyed by his own voice.

Unless they put new PA's in so that it says something about the non-Sonic characters for comedy value, such as;

"Will all ninja's, pirate's and Skaters please not vandalise the facility, thank you", or "If anyone passes a Blue Hedgehog, please use any means necessary to take him out of this competition, thank you".

-facepalm-

The announcements were pre-recorded.

[Barry the Nomad]

I'm certain Sumo takes this stuff into account though. The stage music + all the racers talking + the weapon/vehicle sounds + PA announcements would be too much. I could totally see them not including PA announcements due to Eggman being on the track.

[WarioBone]

I'd gladly get rid of all other noise to hear Eggman's glorious voice.

[Ruhm]

The announcements were pre-recorded.

Oh that's right....we'd like the game using recycled assets again won't we?

Sonic fans and their logic...

Well, that's one way to be a rude dude.

He meant that in Sonic Colors, Eggman's PA announcements were pre-recorded, and then played through out the park. As in, Eggman wasn't actively sitting at a chair for the duration of the game talking over an intercom. Wario wasn't saying they were already recorded and that they could re-use them in this game. He was using it as a way to explain how Eggman could be in the race while the PA announcements were playing.

the game is re-using sound files from past games anyway?

you and your logic...

[Unidus]

I, for one, love the fact that the game reuses sound files It's like a whole bunch more games combined! Some sounds may be from Generations, some from Colors, and some from free riders! Plus, it'll be fun to try and guess which games each sound clip is from

[Jango]

In the first game, all of the clips came from Sonic 2006, and I found that rather shitty lol

But considering that Unleashed didn't had much to offer besides Sonic, and ShadowTH was rather old, it was reasonable. But now we have some gems from Colors and Generations.

All my love if Sumo add "No copyright law in the universe is going to stop me" as one of the 'before the race start' clips xD

[WarioBone]

I'm hoping that the voice clips aren't entirely out of context/irrelevant like they were in the last one. Like Knuckles yelling "SHUT UP" when he threw items and Shadow randomly saying "I'm Shadow the Hedgehog!" when he wins. :| I know there are more, but I've only played it a few times at my girlfriend's place, so I can't actively remember them.

At least we get stuff like this.

Never forget.
