I actually think the fact that them allowing you to pick from the 3 at the start is a very nice move, fair enough!
Yeah I think they want to make sure that you can play in any region right from the get go
I haven’t played a Monster Jam game since the first one back in 2007. So I’m super excited for this one! I already preordered it on my Xbox Series S!
I'm excited too, the game is not without its flaws, but it's a heck of a lot of fun.
I can't wait to play Monster jam showdown next Thursday
Same!!! :-D
Really detailed overview! Gives me a good idea what to do when I get the game next week!
Biggest takeaway for Freestyle is just to do some mental estimates of your score. When you know you're 1st, stop and let the combo end before starting up again.
You're not wrong! I do hope that they change the way freestyle works at release though.
Great intro video! Cant wait for Big Air edition to drop and to see what other content you’ve got cooked up.
More content on the way! :-D
I’ll begin playing the game this weekend on Monday! I’ll refer to this video whenever I want to learn more about this amazing game!
Thanks so much!!
Your breakdowns and guides are next level. This guide will definitely be helpful for us when we start playing on Monday. Keep up the awesome work Toucan you are Pro level!
Thanks so much ChocolateDrive! Can't wait to do some multiplayer with you! You guys rock! :-D
Great information 👍
I finally caved this morning and pre ordered digital standard edition. I was hesitant because Warhammer 40K Space Marine 2 drops on September 9th, and that'll be my main game for a while.
Ggs
@Xander_Park Haha, same, they both look incredible. I might just have to bite the bullet and buy both, lol.
@@He4FrAwesome 👌
I couldn't resist, bro. I'm a sucker for Monster Trucks and racing games in general. I'm currently at 600+ hours in crew motorfest lol 😆. Hope to see you online in both games bro 😎👊
Awesome man!!! can't wait!
After you have completed a run, is there a video replay option?
There is! For single player only.
Looks in the replay there is no cinematic TV style spectator view just the standard cam views.
Is there a way to change the skill level after u chose the skill level bc i picked showdown and its to hard for me lol
Yes! before you start any mission, press the X button (or the playstation equivalent) and you can change the settings, it should be right at the top.
@@ToucanPlays ty
ToucanPlays I got the Monster Jam showdown Video game but I didn’t get the DLC The law and disorder and the odd couple what should I do
Did you pre-order? You should have gotten a code from game stop on your receipt. Otherwise you'll have to wait until October when they become available to purchase separately. :(
Great info, thanks!
Thanks! I was worried that I had rambled on too much!
@@ToucanPlays Nah just the perfect amount lol
I noticed with you playing this game on via steam would say that you actually are using the same control type as what you would do with Nintendo switch almost I just wanted to ask if I was wrong or not on that
So I'm actually playing on the PC through the Epic Games Store, but I'm using an Xbox 360 controller hooked up to my PC. I don't think I could ever play with a mouse and keyboard!
Can you do a video post release? Going over any changes from epic games leak?
I definitely will!! I'm probably going to stream a bit more in the mean time until the hype dies down a bit.
@@ToucanPlays I do think the physics have grown on me a little bit, I’ve come to accept that we’re probably not gonna get a realistic game any time soon
so jealous i cant wait get this on monday look so fun
Woo hoo!!!
Just got the big air addition 🙏🏽
Nice! See you in the game on Monday!
Another Killer video as always my friend.. well done.. i shall see yoh monday 🤙🏻
Thank you sir!!! - Looking forward to your stream too!!
@@ToucanPlays thanks! Let's just hope I can get it going without issues lol
@@ToucanPlays oh and you are most welcome sir!
What typically comes in a season pass? Is it worth buying?
So if you can, I recommend getting the Big Air edition. It comes with the season pass, 3 day head start and some DLC trucks you won't be able to get otherwise until October.
As for the season pass, you'll get access to all of the planned DLC trucks and the expansion pack in December. It's a better value than if you bought them all separately.
You can look up what’s included in the season pass. The details are online
LESS GOO THIS REALEASES NEXT THURSDAY YAAHAOOO
Monday for Big Air edition! :-)
Seems like a very long grind. Gotta get to level 10 to even upgrade the truck then level 20 to upgrade again.
It goes fast honestly... I didn't find it to be that bad.
@@Just_A_Name14 I got to level 25 in 2-3 hours. Though I did get the season pass with increased XP.
@@KnightTemplar1977 I played two hours through the campaign and only was level 14 and I preordered the big air edition so I have all that stuff too.
Not to downplay Showdown, but I feel like the tracks are made from a generator. I don't know if it's because of the three stadium types but I would've loved to see different schemes. That's really my only gripe besides the physics and no truck/track editor. Thanks for the Start Guide.
You're not alone feeling that way! I don't think that the tracks are made by a generator, but they definitely don't feel refined enough yet for sure.
I can't get sparkle smash because of a challenge that I don't understand. It said that I had to join first steps racing. What do I do?
@@ThunderBolt7722 if you still don't have it I didn't understand it either but after I won my first head to head match I unlocked it
@@bowtiefackrell4456 yeah I have it now along with 13 to 14 new trucks. I have done a video about it, the vidoe will contain Pirates Curse.
You got it Thunderbolt? I think most of the steps you get by playing the game, but the one that takes a while is equipping a livery.
@@ToucanPlays yes, I can't wait to get ThunderROARus on the game and in toy form. I also did a video on the trucks I unlocked.
@ThunderBoltGaming7722 sweet!
R.I.P Monster Jam Steel Titans 2 2021-2024. But showdown comes out for Big Air Edition tomorrow and 4 (3 tomorrow) more days until the full release!
Yee haw!
@@ToucanPlays Also, are aliases banned next season?
@WMTSmiley I'm going to limit it to 1 alias, unless we need to fill slots
Question, ive been trying to unlock the "Short Event Perfectionist" challenge and i have no clue what that means and what i need to do. Can someone help?
I got it done 7/12 so obviously I've done it right before, I just have no clue what I need to exactly do
Short events are the green events, I think the perfectionist challenge wants you to get gold in all of the events or complete the secondary objectives in all of the events, either way, you're on the right track you just need to keep working on the green events.
@ToucanPlays thank you so much! I just completed it. It was totally worth it, the rock out victory animation is so sick!
Oooh man OK I need to check it out!
Just judging by what I've seen from videos so far, the only gripe I have is the lack of arena/stadium racing. If you took this games graphics, unlock system, and physics and then the Steel Titans 2 "career" stuff, it feels like this would be significantly better.
So... that's not exactly true, there is stadium head to head racing and freestyle, there's just a definite lack of variety with the venues. The layouts are fun and I'd say most are directly modeled after real Monster Jam events. But I do agree, a career mode, or a mode that more closely aligns with the way Monster Jam events work would be nice to have.
How are the physics? Are they the same as the last two games or revamped?
Different developer so it definitely has a different feel to it. I wouldn't say the physics are great just yet, but it's still a fun game.
This will be help full in four days
The countdowns on!!! :-D
Grave digger fan
Do you unlock truck's when leveling up so if you go from level 1 to level 2 do you unlock a truck
So, keep your eye out for a truck unlock guide next week, but trucks are unlocked in a variety of ways. Some are from just playing the game and gaining experience points, some are unlocked from completing boss battles, most are unlocked by completing various challenges in the game.
@ToucanPlays ok when I eventually get the game, I'm going to go off the guide to make everything easy so I'm not stressed figuring this out
1 week to go!!!
Less!!! It's so close now!
Once this game releases it’s gonna be the Aang mastering all four elements all over again with the different difficulty’s And i think it’s a better difficulty system then steel titans 1
For sure! The in game aids seem to be different than Titans as well. It's a better game over all I think
Anyone know how to change difficulty’s
You can change it before you start an event by pressing the x button (on Xbox) it'll say manage event settings.
Thank you!
Why the heck is this not for pre-order on Steam yet?!
They said that Steam was not going to have pre-orders available, you'll have to wait until Thursday to buy it on Steam. Kinda lame I know!
Can you add destructo into these showdown videos
He'll definitely make a return! Have no fear!
@ToucanPlays were so close to getting showdown; 😀
Why can’t we get some soft body realism monster truck games? Why do they always have to be these arcade games?
Well, to be fair, that's what Beam is for... still to your point, I do wish they moved a tad more to the realistic side than the crazy stunt side on this one.
@@ToucanPlays yeah but we need an actual realistic game. Monster jam licensed. And not requiring all the extra mods.
If they would release an actual good monster truck game, I’m sure it would sell even better. Not to say they undersell, but still
Graphics sell more than physics. Not that I disagree with you. Showdown is a total blast though regardless
The weigth management is absolutly ridiculous.
It needs some work to be sure, I'd like a little more bounce when I land too.
If anyone knows how to unlock wild side. Please help a brotha out
You have to drive a really long distance... Like really long! You can go into the training ground and just drive around in circles if you want, but that's not as fun imo.
@@ToucanPlaysawesome. Thanks. We learned we had to drive far and had accepted that. But it hadn’t crossed my mind to do it at training ground. Good looking out fellow human
Indeed fellow lover of Monster jam games!
Will megalodon be in the next video
Yes, very soon!!!
I’m really bummed with what I’m seeing tbh. Oh well 😕
Well, keep in mind that this is an unfinished version, but more to the point, what is it that you don't like?
@@ToucanPlays For sure! The biggest thing I’m not a fan of is how floaty and weird everything looks. I know this is no sim but man this looks like WAY arcade which is unfortunate.
no free roam, aka I wasted my money my 4 year old hates it
Bummer, I'm sorry man. I will say with the aids turned on he should be able to drive the truck fairly well!
