Project CARS General Discussion Thread

[Mr Latte]

Great pics of the rain.
Funny it brightened up my day, lol.

I wonder if they will try to do FM5 esq paint?
Has their been any talk/comparison to the FM5 car models?

 

[HBR-Roadhog]

pCars is sounding pretty good. I will be very interested to give this one a try when it is ready.

Does anyone know when in 2014 a PC version may be released or a demo?

 

[Samus]

Q1-q2.

 

[DG_Silva]

Only for online, rF2 single-player is still a "buy-once" affair

Yes, you're right. I keep assuming people play online like I do.

Audio Update: New BMW Z4 GT3 incar and external engine sets. I also gave it gear wobbles and all the latest sound events such as int/ext gearshifts, backfires/splutters and a new distant echo and occlusion curves and distant roll-offs.
I'm really happy with this one.

Can't wait to try

Oh man, this car sounds so good now. Well done SMS!
(Hopefully PD can match this or make it better)

 

[sems4arsenal]

How are they allowed to add the Granturismo name on the car?

That's someones livery design they made.

I'd like the free advertising

Really good improvement to the sound 👍

Only small issue I have is the still present use of the universal Gear whine as opposed to the BMW Specific Gearwhine. Other then that, really good.

LOL no they can't. That video should go straight in homepage with the title "Poliphony shut up and listen."

EDIT: Did I see the blur dashboard effect? Someone tell me it can be turned off because I really hate that sheet.

 

[Samus]

No it's not, it's the official livery of the car and that's why it is on there.

My question is, how much will this have to be watered down for consoles? Especially Wii2.

Is the GT sticker put on during the whole season or just during the ring 24 hours.

Either way would be interesting if they do leave it come release

That effect is turned on by default but you can turn it off yes.

I could never play with the corner angle view. It's so unnatural. With eyefinity or whatever head tracking device then it probably feels perfectly comfortable. But when a game is looking for you in a corner when you're not asking for it feels weird for me.

I also agree on the dashboard blur. I cannot seem to understand how that relates to reality when it's purely based on the focal point, and not the speed.

Anyway, if we can all just adjust these small things then that's great. As a game this is beginning to look stunning. I might have to consider moving into a different room in the house if I want to get a steering wheel setup for this game!

In reality you'd blur out things since sight is not static and the brain filters out stuff that is either out of focus or less important and then fill in non-existent stuff to fill the wholes.

Good thing there's a setting in the game that disables it, unlike in our brains.👍

 

[TokoTurismo]

Yeah I know. Maybe I should've word it better. I was just saying it was a replica design of the real car's design.

 

[FLASH48]

Really liking the sound of the Bimmer! I would be satisfied if that made it to the PS3 version of the game!

I don't see why it wouldn't, they're hardly going to redo the sounds for consoles. The samples might be compressed or something, but it will be largely like that.

 

[amf7]

I thought there wasn't going to be PS3/360 versions? Mixed messages...?

 

[FLX1981]

No. The decision to drop current gen consoles or not hasnt been made yet. There will be a vote soon, once they have the next gen dev kits and the calculations done, I assume.

Okay, thanks for clearing that up 👍

Hi everyone, my first post...some pCARS pic's

 

[R8TEDM3]

whoops...double post

 

[Sharky.]

I like how the white track boundary lines in the background of the last pic aren't straight, it's the small details that will set pCARS apart from other sims

(e: at T-12, didn't see the new page. whoops)

[R5]

This game managed to trick my dad into thinking that SLS was real, T-12. It's insane how we've gone from GT1 to Pcars in less than 16 years.

Man...

 

[mister dog]

I guess i'm not the only one drooling here?

In between FM5 coming out on that damned xbone, and GT6 looking like it might have the same gamebreaker flaws as GT5 did; PCARS is my new fix so i hope they can release it on current gen if that's possible... that would be ideal for me 👍
