This game's a blast. It's a physics simulation where your goal is to...well, hurt someone as much as possible.

Go get Truck Dismount and try it. My best after 15 minutes of play is 48,019 points. I flung my "subject" up into the air after hitting the wall, and then my truck flipped over and fell on him. Comedy gold. :)

sounds fairly odd, but who am I to argue with, BOLTY! hrm, does'nt sound as impressive as I'd hoped. I'll try it...what could possibly go wrong?

I've gotten 47584 so far. I've tried almost every combo I can think of to get over 50,000 but it just isn't happening.

Hail Bolty,

I just tried it out for alittle while, and had a blast with it. My strategy was to place ramps where it would make the truck bounce around a lot. After 10-15 minutes I got 53,908. Don't know how people have got 200+ thousand :huh: . Well thanks for the link Bolty!

Best so far is 51613, and involves bouncing/rolling the truck to throw the guy around the cabin. Going to try a few without the windshield as well...

I managed some 94k points. The way to get most point for me so far has been to have the guy seated in front of the front window (what is it called?). If done correctly with some ramps, he remains there and when the truck crashes into the wall, he gets stuck in the glass. On top of that I got the truck to turn over and land on its front with the guy stuck "under" it in the glass. That had the counter go on untill the end. If done better I think one can go way over 100k that way.

Update: That is me arround top 130 by the way :)

Wow, nice one! Now write us an uberguide with stats from the game, the best combos, etc :D

This is a good game.

My funniest set of attempts was when I set up one ramp about halfway to the wall, with the little dude sitting on top of the cab. When the truck hit the ramp, the dude was flung right into the wall and rebounded just in time to get nailed by the truck. He was promptly bounced right back into the wall. The truck rebounded off of the wall, hit the ramp as it was going backwards, and headed for the wall again, just in time to squish the dude as he was about to hit the ground. The process ended with the truck sitting vertically (cab down) with the poor little dude on the bottom.

I laughed, and I think I'm going to hell now.

DeeBye, try starting the guy off ON a ramp. He starts by being flung up into the air. Then you get to time the truck to hit him as he comes back down. ;)

Hmmm..after 15 minutes for me, my highest is about 48,900. I had two ramps, no windshield, and seated him in front of the windshield forcing him to fall inside, hit the ramps, fly out, hit the hall, bounce into the truck and take even more damage :)


Ripped from Slashdot... - Refrigerator - 08-05-2003

It moves incredibly slowly for me. Is this normal?


Ripped from Slashdot... - Jeunemaitre - 08-05-2003

I've actually started out trying to get the truck rolling by offsetting the ramps, but ended up with a bouncing truck that is run at the right speed will bounce up off the first ramp, glance off the second into a flat spin throwing the doll out of the cab at the wall and whipping the back of the truck around to crush him against the wall.

I'm still trying to figure out what type of damage racks up the big points: so far as I can figure, the arms and legs aren't worth much...

/sings to self:
As far as I can tell,
I'm goin' to hell,
As far as I can see
You're commin' with me!

A few seconds ago I got 110567 points. How? I stood the guy on the top edge of the first ramp (and right after the first ramp was the second ramp). With a windshield, the character got flung back into the windshield, and then got crushed against the wall, and then a bug caused him to be caught in the wall for the rest of the time. The back tires then hit second ramp, sending it bouncing back, the front wheels hitting the first ramp again and then it fell over, crushing the character. BWOOT.

Fun! :o


Ripped from Slashdot... - Sir_Die_alot - 08-06-2003

Best I can do is about 68k but that's just being cheap and setting the truck speed really slow and having it drag the poor slob along under its wheel. :P


Ripped from Slashdot... - Jarulf - 08-06-2003

I have a friend who works on doing research at the institue of traffic (or something). He reported he managed to get DOWN to just 770 points or so. Not that easy either.


Ripped from Slashdot... - Sir_Die_alot - 08-07-2003

719 is the lowest I can get. That seems to be the lowest possible unless someone figures out how to avoid the damage he takes from falling to the ground like a rag doll. :)


Ripped from Slashdot... - adeyke - 08-07-2003

I just got 449. I had him fall onto a ramp and used the other ramp to make sure the truck never touched him.


Ripped from Slashdot... - yangman - 08-07-2003

...387.

Same tactic as above, but a lot of experimentation to make sure that he doesn't hit anything very hard on the fall.


Ripped from Slashdot... - Striker - 08-07-2003

I placed the ramps so that he falls into the crack just enough so that the truck hops over him but on the bounce back the rear wheel hits the top of the first ramp.

Fun stuff! Sick, but fun! ;)
