Hi guys! We've playing this blacks vs whites game for a couple of days now and just wanted to share the idea with all the community as it's a hell of fun!
First of all, this is not about a new "crash everyone server" or anything like that. We're a bunch of racers that just finished the current league season and right now we are spending some time fooling around to break with the training/racing routine.
The game is played between two teams with like 4 to 8 players each: blacks and whites. Whites use white car/white nickname, and blacks use black car/red nickname (black nicknames are harder to read).
The server is set to:
- Cruise ON (wrong way is a must).
- Small track (around 1 minute per lap).
- A few laps (3 or 4).
The only rule is: the team that gets a car to complete all laps win a point. The only thing that matters is who wins the race. Everything is allowed: speeding on pits, skipping the starting lights... everything!
When a team wins they add it to their score at the end of their nicknames (just to keep track of the score). A score limit is set so the first team to reach that score wins.
The use of TS/ventrilo is strongly recommended but you can play without it if you master the basic strategies.
Basic strategies are learnt quickly after some rounds, like quickly going to pits and rejoining when the other team runners are about to start a new lap so you catch with them as you exit the pits and then you have a good attack chance at the first corner. There're tons of tricks.
We don't prepare team beforehand unless there are majority of people from one team and they have their own TS server. Usually people randomly connect and join the team with less drivers/less points to have teams as balanced as possible.
I attach a replay of today's last round. The race is pretty lame in the beginning as blacks start pretty bad. As you guess there's no driving skill needed to play this, most of the time you don't need/shouldn't follow a proper line. But most of all... you are really not going to give a damn about driving properly
The awesome highlight of that replay is the last lap, as whites have three guys on lap, aiming to finish and blacks have only one but far away in the back. The rest of the blacks perform an amazing defense crushing all three white cars in the last corner/straight and they manage to win.
Believe me, this game is a lot of fun. I'm not a cruiser or a drifter, I'm a good old hotlapper/racer, but every once in a while these kind of games are really fun.
