Destructible Meshes in Acceleration?

[DignifiedPeach]

I’d like to see a sort of thing where if you throw a bomb, it causes a hole to appear, causing people to slow down when entering it and possibly crashing. That’d be kinda cool.

That would be pretty cool. Kinda of like Split/Second. Maybe if you throw a bomb at a wall, the wall blows up and crushes the person behind you.

And then that destruction carries over for the whole race; so you have to avoid the rubble and stuff every lap. This’d be a cool thing to implement, even if it’s not immediate.

Only problem with that is I can see that cluttering up the map very fast, and if there are collisions, could possibly bottleneck or even ruin the race due to not being able to complete it.

[DignifiedPeach]

I do see that that very well could cause issues, but that’s potentially. Again, doesn’t need to happen, but if they implemented it without issues, it’d be fantastic.

[MightyBalian]

Split/Second handled that pretty well. It would just despawn after a short time. So it would cause chaos temporarily but wouldn’t mess up the whole race.

This has already been previously discussed here. This is what I said before:

Even though this probably won’t effect me, I’m sure a lot of other people (who have low-end systems) would be pretty pissed to have an even lower frame rate than 20fps. Also, I’d only like to see destructible mesh if it didn’t impact the enjoyment of racing. I don’t want a slow, shitty and slippery cart just because the devs wanted a wall to shatter.
