Mario Kart punish the player for revving up too high during the countdown when the race starts, and reward them with an extra boost if they only hit the gas when the countdown reaches "Go! This isn't the case for Carmageddon games. The player may rev their engine from the start, in forward or reverse gears. While this allows the player to set off faster forwards or backwards , it'll not make the car move until the countdown finishes. In Carmageddon: TDR , the announcer will start the countdown from 3.
Also worth noticing is that the voice-acting for CarmaTDR's countdown wasn't well made: the announcer will say '3' and '2' quite fast, and will only say '1' after a noticeable small pause. His job is to wave his checkered flag when the countdown finishes. Unfortunately for him, he's stood directly in front of the racers on the starting grid. Being a special pedestrian, he rewards the player with more credits than the regular ones. If the flagman has survived for a whole lap, he'll be worth even more.
To do so, s he must merely press the wheelspin key default Z. Remember, this isn't fair, and the announcer will catch you skipping the countdown. Im Angebot. Alle Spiele. Mehr GOG. GOG Galaxy.

After that, it is basically a strategy decision for you - you can either focus on winning the race or just wade into every vehicle and pedestrian that comes into your line of sight.
And of course, you do not have all the time in the world to do this so get a move on. All of which makes for a mixture of flabbergastingly fascinating fun. Yes, we cannot help but get affronted when our vehicles with driver avatars realistically bobbing in a box ram into hapless bystanders and pedestrians, complete with squishing sounds and blood-like goo flying out, but once you get into the game, you actually start working out whether it makes sense to take a bit of a diversion between one check point and the next to chase some people and run them down ugh!
How heartless that sounds , or whether it is just simpler to race along or plow your vehicle into the nearest competitor. Yes, this is definitely crash-boom-bang territory, complete with exploding cows and tight corners into which cars pile up and of course, precipices off which people can be pushed off.
The controls are a bit tough to start out with. They are located on the lower part of the screen and comprise an accelerate forward pedal shaped button and a reverse button on the right, and two direction buttons on the left one for turning right, the other for turning left. Honestly, we did not find it the easiest as it involved keeping both of our hands on the device all the time and sometimes switching buttons can be a problem.
However, once you get the hang of it, things tend to work out just dandy, and you can even indulge in the odd death-defying stunt by hitting the right combo of buttons truth be told, we ended up executing most of them without knowing what we were doing. It will leave you shocked and stunned, but will nevertheless keep you hooked. It is almost like playing an FPS, only instead of a weapon in your hands, you have a steering wheel.
