I tried out Heavy Metal Machines with my friends today, and as a team of 3, we had a 90% win rate, with most games going 3-0 in our favor. Well, aside from it being too easy, it was a rather fun experience. The game didn't seem to have a lot of depth to it, so I would've probably gotten bored regardless of the high win rate, but dodging enemies, ramming opponents, trying to shoot them down or knock them into lava while trying to keep fire off your carry and them at full health... It's fun, really.
Basically you first rush to get the bomb from the middle, then try to carry it down the windy track to your opponent's finish line, or kill their carry and grab the bomb to push it backwards on your track. It's like a constant tug-of-war. There's a few different cars with the main types being healer, damage dealer, and bomb carry.
The entire game has a population of about 50-200 players, depending on the time of day, and connection issues are actually rather commonplace, even if it's not the players' fault, so you'll be dealing with at least one AFK in most games. So, due to the low depth, low player count, and high amount of connection problems, I don't think I'll be returning to it. But I did have fun.
