Maniaplanet Forum

I couldn't find this video on this forum so I thought it would be nice to share it .
Weird that none of the devs shared this one here, anyways enjoy.

Question about 'Shooting' :
What exactly is the projectile? Is it yourself? That wasn't clear to me in the video ( or I'm just stupid )
If you shoot yourself then you can shoot yourself to the finish line or am I understanding this completely wrong?

We know it already, i wrote it.

Sorry my friend , I looked everywhere but didn't find it. A moderator can close this topic then.

Maniadesign, you only posted the link to the trailer shown by Ubisoft Germany (with German subtitles).
The pure English trailer is a different url

You shoot a projectile (similar to a green shell in Mario Kart) which looks like the exact same copy of your car.

Am I the only one who think that that's strange?
So if someone misses me and I see a car fly by me, then I'll think that someone passed me by... confusing, no?

Thank you for clearing this up accelracer

it's not for passing you, its for shooting you out of the way, since there is now collision in the game.

another bonus item could be a boost, but this shouldn't allow the same speed as the "projectile car", anywys there are boost blocks, and the only bonus items known up to now are "drop", "big car", "shoot" and "small car".

I know Tmarc
But not every shot is a hit? And so I can imagine that it will confuse players. It does not make sense to me that your own car (ghost of) would be the projectile.

why should every shot be automatically a hit? they tried already with Shootmania and don't always hit
it's a game, and you have to target good and shoot fast.
certainly it is also to confuse opponents, because this will make them lose time and you perhaps win

This video alone made me even more interested for this game!

Also will some of these modes be available in online as well? I would like to play Bonus
