I hope they will host the servers somewhere Nintendo's jurisdiction does not reach.

Quoting: XpanderI always remembered that it looked better than Flatout 2 ... but its more blurry and low textured than Flatout 2 imo, water and reflections look a bit nicer though and there's more AI opponents racing. Other than that its just Flatout 2 with few tweaks here and there.

Also for some reason it shows Controller prompts in the menus, Even though i have no controllers connected. Still works with keyboard though, just have to remember the buttons.

Works out of box with Proton 9.0 (Beta) that i had selected.

Quoting: D34VA_Anyone who has played both FlatOut and Burnout: Is this series comparable? Some of my best memories are of Burnout 3 and Revenge. Does Flatout scratch a similar itch?
I only watched my roommate play Burnout but Flatout 1 & 2 are among my favorite racing games. They look rather different, at least on the surface.

I can tell you what you can expect from Flatout series:

- satisfying, but mostly arcade experience (you can modify the settings to make it more realistic)
- simple car upgrade system, variety comes mostly from driving different cars (think the usual top speed/acceleration/handling stat choice)
- nitro boost goes brrrrrr
- upbeat 2000s rock & metal soundtrack
- beautiful, mostly offroad & rural tracks (I recommend turning off bloom though)
- demolition and stunt elements in most tracks
- weird-ass alternative game mode in which you can throw the driver into a large shooting/bullseye circle or jump through fiery hoops

I've always just used Steam Remote Play for Linux host, Parsec for Windows host. Still, I am glad those projects exist, streaming is awesome.
