New Burnout Online Modes

Revealed in one of the recent Crash FM Podcasts. The new game modes will be very similar to the Free-Burn Challenges and Single player events already in the game. And should provide for an even more customizable and enjoyable online burnout experience.

According to Criterion Games, more modes like this will be released the near future.

Online Road Rage

• This is an 8-player online team event.
  
• At the start, everyone chooses their team (red or blue).
  
• One team of "runners" has to drive to a checkpoint then the finish –
  they can only see one checkpoint ahead.
  
• The other team has to take them down. These guys can see the checkpoint
  and finish and choose whether to wait and ambush in key locations, shortcut
  to the action if they get left behind or just follow the pack and cause chaos.
  
  

  Online Marked Man

  
  
• The game randomly chooses a "Marked Man".
• This is an intense moment – you want to stay close to other players, so you
  can hit the Marked Man, as soon as he's selected but far enough away that that
  you can run like hell if it's you that's the Marked Man.
  
• The target is selected and a 90 second timer starts – you get 1 point if
  you survive and 1 point if you take down the Marked Man.
  
• If you're the Marked Man, you can't see the attacking players on the map,
  your car is a little slower and you don't get boost.
  
• The session usually consists of around 10-12 minutes of intense gameplay
  depending on the number of players involved.
  
  

  Online Stunt Run

  
  
• This is 8-player simultaneous online Stunt Run – everyone competes for the
  highest score within the 2 minute time limit and you can play anywhere in
  Paradise City.
  
• An on-screen display shows all player scores, so you can easily see how
  you're doing.
  
• Earn multipliers for taking each other out but you lose your combo score,
  if you're taken down.
  
• Eliminated players are greyed out of the scoring area but can exact brutal
  revenge by chasing after players that have managed to keep their combos alive
  beyond the time-out.
  
• For the first time, you can drive alongside someone as they completing a
  billion score in stunt run, so you'll be able to use this mode to try and show
  off to your friends.
