TOUCAN TOUCAN MILESTONE REALASED A NEW MONSTER JAM SHOWDOWN TRALLER ITS 1:53 minutes long MAKE A VIDEO ON IT PLEASE

[@MonsterTrucker5748]

The physics looks like a 2004 speed tv intro :(

[@ToucanPlays]

Maybe we should add some funky music to complete the throwback vibe!

[@JCBDIGatron-o5s]

6:25 Steel Titans 2 has reached meme status 🤣🤣

[@ToucanPlays]

LOL I like how I sent poor Doom's Day flying with the defender shield. It was perfect for the video!

[@JVC1103]

@@ToucanPlays I was in the air once and that dang sheild sent me flying I hope skills like that is not in the game!

[@ChipChocolateDrive]

Great video as always! I don’t care about the physics. We just want the game

[@ToucanPlays]

Same!

[@JacksonEads-dj7wf]

Kind of truck specific but will there be all the zombies from the encore or no? Question for Discord server.

[@ToucanPlays]

I'll ask, but they're pretty tight lipped about specific variants. Either they don't know, or don't want to say.

[@annamartinez7946]

The day monster jam showdown is out is a day before my birthday witch is on August 30th

[@ToucanPlays]

Nice! My family all have birthdays that same week too! lol

[@rustymidlander05]

I hope they have a showroom like in Urban Assault.

[@ToucanPlays]

YES! Me too!

[@LennoxKnight-st6lm]

All I hope is that the banners look better

[@ToucanPlays]

Banners? Do you mean the tarps over the empty seats? I didn't like them at first either, but they've kinda grown on me.

[@MatthewPhelps-lq6tr]

I really want grave digger to have the 25th anniversary livery, where it's all chrome. That's my favorite anniversary body of it. And I guess the original max d will have the 20th anniversary livery due to the same body type

[@ToucanPlays]

That would be pretty sick, we haven't seen any chrome bodies yet though so I don't know, might be a long shot.

[@MatthewPhelps-lq6tr]

@@ToucanPlays yeah

[@kathleenlanphear3858]

Bigfoot is a long shot to be in the game hopefully we can possibly make him if the game has a create a truck feature

[@ToucanPlays]

Yeah, I don't think bigfoot is going to make it. He's separated from Monster Jam too much. I don't think there will be a create a truck feature unfortunately.

[@khymanser391]

I wonder if monster mutt husky monster mutt poodle and monster mutt golden retriever will be in monster jam showdown game

[@ToucanPlays]

I'd love to see the whole mutt patrol in Showdown. I don't know for sure obviously, but I'd be willing to bet that they'll all make an appearance, either through liveries, or a DLC pack.

[@savageboy8418]

Do we have to preorder to get maximum destruction

[@ToucanPlays]

Yes. There's a little bit of confusion on this at the moment, but it seems like, for now at least, that you do have to pre-order, or purchase the game within the first few weeks of release. Typically they'll offer pre-order bonuses as paid DLC down the line though so you may not be permanently left out if you don't pre-order.

[@mathewhasty3085]

Hey Toucanplays I just preordered the monster jam showdown so I will looking forward to hopefully able to play against you on the game

[@ToucanPlays]

Literally can't wait!!!

Yo, that hype is real! Let's keep it going!

[@annamartinez7946]

Will there be a ferrdie in the game that you can do

[@ToucanPlays]

They said the only freeride is the tutorial/training map unfortunately, it will probably be small.

Im hoping for grandma gravedigger

[@christopherreyes1751]

Always a w vid

[@ToucanPlays]

Thank you so much for your support!

[@MrMrMrMeme]

People don’t understand Showdown is directed mainly to kids so it is not gonna be realistic

[@ToucanPlays]

I think there are a lot of older fans that are frustrated by the heavy lean towards a younger audience. I blame FELD a little bit for ignoring the adult fanbase. They've been doing it for a while.

[@masonhall945]

Can you please ask the monster jam showdown discord people if there will be something like free ride in this game like in steel titans 2 and also why on the Xbox series x why in the play store it says currently not available to be pre order which makes no sense to me when in the same store I am able to pre order games before it comes out and after it comes thanks in advances toucanplays

[@ToucanPlays]

They said that there is a training area that will have free ride, but most of the levels will not have that unfortunately. Digital pre-orders are not up yet, but hopefully will be soon.

[@AlexR-ji4rh]

Then ask if showdown will avable for ps4

[@ToucanPlays]

It is! You can pre-order it from gamestop now!

[@AlexR-ji4rh]

No I think you mean ps5

[@ToucanPlays]

You know, you're right, but the official website does say that it will be available on the PS4 so hopefully pre-orders on the PS4 will be soon.

[@m.t.worldmedia5404]

5:59 fun fact, this is a system adopted in the Path of Destruction game in 2010. Every time you leveled up or got more XP you got more trucks and more power for your fleet. It’s not quite the same but hey it’s close

[@ToucanPlays]

Well and you know I wonder if the perk points are used to unlock new trucks as well. I know they talked about boss fights being one way to unlock trucks, but this might be another way.

[@MarvelMTs]

People calling this “unrealistic” have somehow forgotten about Maximum Destruction or M4x4:MoM. I have childhood nostalgia from the latter but Showdown is wayyy more realistic than those two.

[@ToucanPlays]

Yeah, I think a lot of folks have rose colored glasses when they think back to those old games. The physics were way worse than they remember.

[@KrispeeKewbEditz]

Wow, video style improved, quality improved, editing improved. You really improved! Great job Toucan!

[@ToucanPlays]

Thanks! I guess I finally figured out how to use the fancy editing software... or maybe the magic Toucan feathers are working!

[@FrenchVanillaMilitia]

Peeps complaining about the physics never played Steel Titans 1. That crap was BONKERS. Also bare in mind you can turn the assists off, per the official Discord. It WILL play completely different without all of the assists. Honestly, I'm just really excited to dig into this game. It looks WAY better than Steel Titans 1. It looks way better than Monster Truck Championship (wouldn't recommend) and it looks a lot better than Steel Titans 2 (in which I actually really enjoy!)

[@ToucanPlays]

Dude, Steel Titans 1 was a fever dream... though I hope the bar is set a little higher than that lol. I enjoy ST 2 as well, and while Showdown does share a similar aesthetic, I think it's going to be a lot better as well.

[@Aidan_minotti]

Do we start off with every truck, or will it be like steelmtitans 1 and 2

[@ToucanPlays]

They've said that you will have to unlock trucks, but they haven't really talked about how just yet. I'm sure it'll be something like career mode in Steel Titans.

New news

[@ToucanPlays]

When old news just won't do, we've got new news!

[@sonicprogamer7723]

Do you have to pay money to get son uva digger truck and trucks like that

[@ToucanPlays]

There will be 40 trucks in the base game, I'm certain that SUD will be included with that 40. Then 26 DLC, some will be free, others will be paid.

[@Ayoutube2023]

I would really like if they clarified how many stadiums are going to be in the game because we have really only been shown 3 or 4 over and over

[@ToucanPlays]

Indeed! Maybe in the next promo video they release they'll talk about it some.

[@ajthenascarexpert]

This game is testing my patience with the pre order taking so long

[@ToucanPlays]

Believe me I feel your pain!

[@drewdixon210]

I mean its a monsterjam game. They have never had "realistic" physics but have been fun

[@ToucanPlays]

True that, MonsterJam games are all about having a blast!

[@AlexR-ji4rh]

Hi im monster jam Alex and can you ask this question how will you able to unlock trucks

[@ToucanPlays]

Hey Alex! A few people have asked this question and other than boss battles, they haven't really been willing to say how trucks are unlocked. I imagine it'll be tied to the career mode and possibly to your profile level. I think we'll have to wait a little bit for more answers on this one.

[@nathanael_th3_thuger]

Toucan plays there is gonna be a option to turn on or off aids for freestyle arcade or a little bit of realism

[@ToucanPlays]

They said yes, you will be able to turn off the in game aids.

[@MonsterJamExtreme]

I hope the game gets some updates after a couple months of it releases

[@ToucanPlays]

I'm almost positive we'll see a paid DLC within 3 months of release, hopefully with the inevitable bug fixes and quality of life updates too. I don't think they're going to abandon the game the way Rainbow did with Steel Titans.

[@wegnerracer2]

At 4:13, with the way the shocks are moving, this move seems to be a slap wheelie. Which is surprising based off what we’ve seen.

[@ToucanPlays]

Ah... you're probably right. And yes, surprising since the bounce physics are basically non-existent.

Hey @ToucanPlays that stadium with the red track looks similar to San Antonio

[@ToucanPlays]

Could be! They all look pretty generic to me unfortunately.

[@ManImConfused]

@@ToucanPlays no the stadium look at the screens and compare them with Almadome’s they’re similar

[@diggersdiecast8879]

I'm still pumped

[@ToucanPlays]

Heck yeah, let's keep the momentum going!

[@Alil_gothig]

So can we only get the "odd couple" and "law and disorder" if we pre-order the game or can I buy it after release?

[@WldPegasus]

Later on down the road yes normal dlc it’s not pre order only.

[@ToucanPlays]

So far it's only pre-order, but likely they will offer it as a pay for DLC a few months after release.

[@WldPegasus]

@@ToucanPlays Thanks for the correction! btw I seen your latest livestream… I’m pointing out I’m also friends with Xander. Met him by another friend me and him had. unfortunately this third friend of ours made poor choices and yeah he’s spending time… been watching your videos and sorry I’m a quiet guy but yeah I enjoy the content!

[@WldPegasus]

The last stream I meant to say.

[@mikeygeisbert2565]

Over Bored and even Black Pearl are very likely with Wild Side in the game. If they 3D scanned the trucks at World Finals 22, I'd imagine Black Pearl is on the way, and we might get Chad Tingler's red Over Bored too if they scanned trucks at this year's World Finals. Oddly enough, I'm personally hoping the 6 trucks in the copyright(Captain's Curse, my personal favorite, is there too) are DLC for more room for independents. And room for Rottweiler. Seriously, what does Milestone have against the first Mutt to get a 3D body?

[@ToucanPlays]

Oh man! How did I miss Captain's Curse!?!? I'd wager that Captain's Curse is going to be in the base game. And yes I agree with you 100% Over Bored and Black Pearl are probably going to be in there somewhere, at this point, likely DLC though. I don't know what the deal is with Rottweiler! Maybe it'll be a livery? But they did say that the body style won't change, only paint jobs... who knows!?!

[@ryandavis6864]

I think its Rottweiler as the 40th thats the only mutt thats currently running thats not already confirmed

[@ToucanPlays]

That's a good guess, and you're not alone with that. Guess we'll see soon enough!

[@savageboy8418]

I hate all 8 truck freestyle modes. should be 1 at a time, which makes it more fun

[@ToucanPlays]

It would be more fun for tournaments, but it would be kind of boring for the 7 others who are just sitting there watching a solo run. Still, it would be cool if they made a tournament mode where we could all go one at a time.

[@savageboy8418]

@ToucanPlays I get that, but I really don't want to buy a pc just for beamng so I can do that or make it a separate mode where you get 8 players, and they do that separate freestyles

[@BewareoftheBat]

Excellent video!

[@ToucanPlays]

Thank you so much for watching and for your kind words!
