Edit 4 (:eek: lots of edits): Conspiracy theory time. Was Berca76 placed here at GTP to try and help persuade some GT gamers that Shift will be more to our liking?:sly: We've been infiltrated lads!:lol:

Let me know if you want to see more of what we have in store for Need for Speed SHIFT. I'm planning to build up an AE86 in-game pretty soon and can assure you it's going to have proper style!

Excellent work Reventón, and thanks for putting in the work to confirm all those (amazed you can pick the Veyron though, I still can't see it).👍:cheers: Just one question, wouldn't it more likely be the G37?

Also good to see another muscle car in there, with both Challenger and 2010 Mustang the 2010 Camaro is almost a given.👍

Edit: In the pic of the GT500, what's the red car in the mirror?
 
This game is looking good so far but i hope that the developers make it a long game couse ive had enough of NFS games that i finish wihin a week or 2

P.S. DBR9= my favourite car smiles alround

Not to doubt you on this one, but are we sure this isn't the DBRS9? It could be a DBR9. but its not easy to tell when both cars have a striking resemblance fron the front.
 
Three instant givaways between the DBR9 and DBRS9, firstly the exhaust, if it's side exit it's the DBR9 the DBRS9 is rear exit. Secondly the fuel fillers, the DBR9['s are side mouned and the DBRS9's pop through the rear window. Thirdly there are three small lights on the side of the DBR9 just forwards of the fuel fillers, these arn't on the DBRS9.

There are other differences like the outtakes on top of the front arches and slight differences in bodywork and so on but I find the fuel filler to be the easiest to spot straight away.
 
Does anybody know what button configurations there will be??

the trigers on the PS3 controller are not god enough for the job and i prefer using the L/R
bottons and the cross & square buttons
 
New gameplay video:


looks kind ok maybe? considering all the assists are on I would say it looks sim racer-ish.

It doesn't look too bad, considering all assists are on, but I will need to play this game with my own hands before I'm convinced I'm afraid.
 
Didn't like it much, but anyway only when I play I'll be sure if it's worth a buy. We will get a free downloadable demo in this game, won't we?
 
Looks like he learned to overtake in GT5:P online..

:lol: Too right, he can't drive at all!
I like the way it looks from that video, the only thing I didn't like was the way the bonnet opened and then just stuck in one position at high speed, then somehow locked itself back down without being fully closed when he crashed. Even GTA has better bonnet damage physics than that!

I have to say looks good as in graphics, damage ok like in GRID, as well Game play as in GRID. SIM ? NO, SIm Arcade? YES.
 
lol, guys, that thing about NFS Shift, this will be simulator? i've got picture about NFS Undercover that is said: realistic damage and driving, bikes, pedestrains and weapons, stadiums (wtf) and something more, and what we get from Undercover? worse game than Most Wanted, so i really don't think that Shift will be simulator because any simulator wasn't made for 1 year, this was same for ProStreet (i'm enjoying playing it sometimes), so if you're an arcade game lover, wait for Shift or get to realism and wait for GT5. remember, longer we wait GT5, the better game will be. and darn PD, put Opel Astra 1.6 16V sedan in GT5 or one GT5 won't be sold! :)
[sry for bad english]
 
This wasn't made in 1 year, the engine and a lot of technical bits have been worked on for a couple of years. Besides that, there's no reason a sim acn't be done in a year, if you have the expertise and man power to do it. The time consuming parts are generally the content, game engines are normall bought or borrowed and then updated, it's rare you get a scratch built game engine and even when you do the base codes and a formulas are nearly always based on an older engine at one level or another.
 
I have to say looks good as in graphics, damage ok like in GRID, as well Game play as in GRID. SIM ? NO, SIm Arcade? YES.

Can't say that as it's too early to tell. Developers already confirmed there will be multiple levels of realism for the hardcore & the arcade crowd.
