Crossout Update Brings Madness Circuit Racing

The post-apocalyptic vehicle combat game has featured motorsport in the past, but the latest Crossout update brings Madness Circuit racing with two new circuits and the Moby 935 armoured car.

The Madness Circuit update is available on the PC as game build 0.11.60 and as 1.0.75 for the PS4 and Xbox One versions. But the contents are identical.

All platforms will be able to compete in the brawl “Race” mode with two two tracks created to try and be more balanced for fast cars. The venues are Rocky Track and the Industrial Track. Both are more interesting than the names might suggest.

There are plans to add more tracks in the future, and old circuits have been removed. The Rocky track features long straights to give an advantage to a higher maximum speed, whereas the Industrial track has tight twists and turns. The former venue has a limit of 8 online racers, while 6 can compete at the latter.

As a futuristic car game which lets you build your own vehicles, you’re able to use wheels or hover capabilities, and you’ll always tend to do better in the races by flying.

The Crossout Madness Circuit update also brings a new armound car, named the Moby 935, which comes with an epic level “cockpit” cabin, and two epic MG13 Equalizer machine guns. Which would certainly be useful in a variety of traditional sim racing games, especially to clear out the first corner.

The Crossout update brings Madness Circuit racing alongside some other new features, including optimising the build mode for anyone using a gamepad, destructible objects in your garage, and the choice of different weather conditoins for the Test Drive mode.

The Mody 935 comes as part of the new Adrenaline DLC pack, which costs £26.49, and also includes:

• Racecar structural parts.
• Unique character portrait “Jacques Kremer”.
• 1500 in-game coins.
• Rare “Chained wheel” — 4 pcs. (2 normal, 2 ST).
• Rare booster “Blastoff” — 6 pcs.
• Unique paint can of legendary rarity “Blue gloss”.
• The maximum number of parts increased to 55.

And as part of an Adrenaline Deluxe DLC pack (£57.29), with the following extras. That price is not a typo, by the way.

• Rare “Chained wheel” (2 normal, 2 ST) with unique CK “Fast lap” — 4 pcs.
• Rare booster “Blastoff” with unique CK “Slipstream” —6 pcs.
• Unique background and logo.
• The decor of legendary rarity “Spoiler” and a set of unique stickers.
• Unique paint cans of legendary rarity: “Turquoise gloss”, “Pale yellow gloss”, “Carmine gloss” and “Blue gloss”.
• The maximum number of parts increased to 55.
• Racecar structural parts.
• Unique character portrait “Jacques Kremer”.
• 4000 in-game coins.

The Crossout Madness Circuit Change Notes

Other changes due to the update include:

Parts:

• Now, with each new level of prestige in the “Lunatics” faction, the player will get random structural parts from the following list (until all the parts are received):
  • “Pole position” — 1 pc.
  • “Left backmarker” and “Right backmarker” — 1 of each.
  • “Left bend” and “Right bend” — 1 of each.
• Thus, all structural parts can be obtained for 3 levels of prestige with the “Lunatics” faction.
• Attention! The parts are issued for each new level of prestige obtained after the update. Prestige levels received before the update are not counted, and the parts are not given for them.
• If you purchased the “Adrenaline” pack (regular or deluxe), then if you increase the level of prestige with the “Lunatics” faction, additional structural parts will not be issued.

Guided missile “Clarinet TOW”

• Improved missile control in the controlled flight phase.
• Changed the location of the scope when controlling the missile.

• Reworked the appearance of icons displaying the functions of the mouse or gamepad.
• Base markers and their capture status have been improved.
• Improved the display of backgrounds in the “Trials” profile tab.

• “Cohort” cabin drones no longer approach invisible targets.
