Doesn't sound paranormal. Maybe /v/ can give u a better answer.

Sounds interesting but not paranormal anon

these guys don't get the interconnected-ness of pop-culture and meme magic. there is something here for sure.
just the fact that you happened to post here is a sign.

It would be interesting to study how the player's mindstate effects broken games. It might just be coincidence, but it seems like buggy games freak out and crash more when emotions run high.
I've never played this game, but there was a game, I think it was called Age of Pirates 2: Caribbean Tales, that was real bad about that.
>be chill, it runs like greased lightning
>get mad, it starts glitching out and crashing
Whether this is a bug or a feature is debatable, but it would be fascinating to learn more about.

i can't believe this is the current state of /x/

Even if there is, we have protocols for this. If they direct OP back here, then it becomes paranormal.
If they already know what's up they can explain it to OP and provide either OC or proper debunking.
/x/ is a passive board, we need to let content find its way here. Other boards filter things, providing a meter for our paranoia.

>>19502370
I'm not seeing a problem.
What's wrong with having a novel topic once in a while?
We're both at a computer shitposting at each other, /x/ (and chans as a whole) are techomage central.
It seems like a logical step that technomages would explore the intersection of spoopy and technology.

Stellar Stone ceased business in 2006. Referring to the company's employees and staff, Titov said "I have no idea where all these people went. Not that I care about it either."[1] Their Internet domain, www.stellarstone.com, is no longer active, and has since been cybersquatted.

they just disappeared. without a trace.

That's a pretty weird response. Not even a "they quit" or a "moved on to other stuff"?

If the player presses and holds the reverse key, the vehicle can accelerate until reaching 1.23×1037 mph (1.98×1037 km/h; 5.8×1020 ly/s) or over 1028 times the speed of light, at which point all checkpoints will turn green and the player will instantly win the race.

Stellar Stone released a patch that addressed some of the game's complaints. With the patch, the opponent vehicles participate in the race, but stop before they reach the finish line, keeping the game impossible to lose. "Nightride", the non-functional track, was replaced with a mirror image of the first track, "Devil Passage 1". Some versions of the patch replaced the "YOU'RE WINNER !" text with "YOU WIN !". The patch also added sound effects, a feature that was missing from the original game, and later copies shipped with the patch by default. However, no effort was made to alter the physics of the game, and other common complaints were not addressed.

weird as fuck

also there was no AI in the first version

>>19501338
If you've seen gameplay you'd understand what op was talking about

ok so
there is police on the cover
no police in the game
the description says you have illegal cargo
in game your truck has no trailer at all.

another thing:The player may freely drive on and off roads without any loss of traction, up or down 90° slopes with no loss or gain of lateral speed, through structures such as buildings, trees, bridges, checkpoints, and enemy vehicles (due to a lack of collision detection), and out of the boundaries of the map into an endless grey void.

endless grey
void

Four cosmetically different trucks are playable; they all perform identically. Though there are five courses from which to choose, only four are playable. The fifth does not function and selecting it simply crashes the game

also the wierd ass trophy has 3 handles

"eighteen wheels of thunder"
the caption on the cover of the game

>>19502875
you can also drive faster in reverse than you can forward and you can reach 12x the speed of light

x12 times the Speed of Light....
Okay wtf?

>>19501306
Its just a scam game to get parents to buy it to they're kids
Stop being so stupid

>>19502937
not its
1208

>>19503024
10^28 times the speed of light actually
copy pasting that number just puts it in normal digits.
thats 10000000000000000000000000000 times the speed of light

hmmm
"big rigs"
a big rig
that travels at 10^28 times c.

ayyys?

Wait, what physics engine are they using?
In any physics engine I know of you'd have to TRY to fuck shit up that bad, and even then it wouldn't work very well.
Did they write their own half-assed physics from scratch or what?
That's a stretch even for the most simplistic of rigid-body physics computations.

You need to smoke enough dimethyltriptamene to break through at the exact moment that you max out the truck in reverse... when you do this your will finally get to meet the reluctant starman who will blow your mind.

They essentially shipped the alpha version of the game by accident. Once all those copies were produced they couldn't remake them because it costs too much.

>>19503824
That might be believable IF they didn't make 2 additional versions which were just as broken as the first... Some other game studio not too long ago accidentally released the beta version on Steam and when people bought it and installed it they found it to be a buggy, unfinished mess. I think that was the original Dead Island or something, I'm not sure.

It's just worthless shovel-ware that some company finished in a week and released, hoping parents or kids would buy it and then not care enough to demand a refund.

I suppose it's not false advertising.

The strangest part about the speed thing is that apparently, once you hit a max speed, you automatically win the game. Even if you're nowhere near the finish line. Can anyone explain to me how that might work? Is it like a sort of fail-safe that was left in? Maybe the developers implemented a sort of process that ends the race automatically instead of letting the game CTD? Someone on the AVGN review of the game said that even if you don't pass any checkpoint, once you hit the max speed every checkpoint goes green and you automatically win the game. That seems more elaborate to me than just a simple bug, it's like at the max speed the game treats your truck as being everywhere all at once, and thus you win because you're also at the finish line.

Has anyone looked at the code of the game to figure out just what is going on? Maybe there are comments left by the creators which would give clues on why shit happens the way it does in the game. The "yourewinner" forum seems huge, surely someone pulled apart the game and looked at the code...

Okay, OP here, I did not think anyone would take my worrying even semi-serkously! I'm so glad I'm not the only one worrying about this...game?

>>19511834
It does seem to have some weirdness about it, and there hasn't been much new material around here lately.

>>19508546
Guys, maybe we need the equations the game uses in it's calculations for speed?

Y'know, doesn't it seems strange that the game allows you to go infinitely out of the map? It seems...bizzare to me, the graphics and the physics are awful we know that...
But what if it's on purpose?
Maybe it's an intentional masquerade of something hidden in the vast nothingness outside the map, it was made as light as possible so the software could handle such a gigantic space

This sounds like a mystery the Mountain Monsters team should investigate.

>>19511849
... Genius.

Another thing is that some people think the secondary win objective of reaching terminal speed is a failsafe like some on this thread...
But why put a failsafe instead of fixing such a glaring, obvious problem? It seems kind of backwards.
Leads me to think the abnormal acceleration is on purpose too

Very interesting thread. Bump

>>19512051
Is that even allowed?
