Seriously, what's your problem?
The demo is amazing, a giant leap has been made in regards the physics engine, the feel of the driving now is just about perfect, sounds are amazing, graphics as ever are almost better than real, but no, hang on, we must find something to moan about.
"But what can we possibly moan about, it's clear the demo is utterly brilliant, what on earth can we moan about? I know, I'll take a slow drive around the track and write down everything I see that ain't quite right, off I go....."
"O.K., here we go, car sounds perfect, sky has clouds, track looks realistic, yep there's the "brick yard", kerbs are fine, grass is, well, green....."
".....screeeccchhhh....bang.... WTF? I just crashed ! that never happens to me, must be the dodgy physics, ok thats the first complaint, the physics are rubbish because they made me crash...."
".......wait a second, this sand in this gravel trap, it's actually trapping me, that can't be right, and this grass is way too slippy, I often see real race cars grass tracking and they have much more grip than this, point 2......."
".........O.K. think thats enough for now, hang on a second, what the heck is that over there ? It's a tree, made from two intersecting polygon shapes with a texture applied to give the impression it's actually a polygon model ! Well I never, lucky I decided to drive around at 10mph, or I might have missed that one......."
Seriously people, If you can't drive, you can't drive, don't blame the physics engine.
And if you want more realistic trees go find a forest and get lost in it.
This demo is a fine piece of work, credit where credits due, PD have done a sterling job thus far, they deserve a little appreciation.
