Watch the HD Gamers Day video. The detail/self shadowing on the car is outstanding. (Note: environmental shadows are missing and still WIP, and the damamge modelling and a lot of other features re missing -- but that still doesn't prevent us from appreciating the car!)

Edit: Just to clarify, this is from the "other" racing sim. Just giving a link some nice gaming car detail and showing you can show great cars early on. The big thing is they seem to have got the color down well, as well as car detail.

It is a mixed bag, something is next-gen, some assets not. Tdu can do such shadows.

There is to much light exposure on video and framerate is horrid, but i find game sexy. Why gametrailers doesn`t give us extendet gameplay from x06? We already know they have it.

I think cause MS won't allow it. That gameplay vid shouldn't of been released on the web. I think thats why Blim hasn't upped any footage of it aswell

ahh seems so, taken from BlimBlim's post on Gaf

2006-10-29 12:35:44

ok here's a question...would it not be much harder for the people doing the forza game to make their cars look as good as pgr3 due to the fact the their cars are fully damagable(is this even a word???)

i know nothing about game design,it just i rather just have a hood cam showing me the damage on my car...then having a cockpit view that no matter how much i fuck it up stays the same

pgr3 had no damage whatsoever...i dunno about u but the first thing I always wanna do with nice cars is destroy them however i can

Most damage engines in car games are unrealistic, when you have a crash you don't have bits fly off like in the video above, yes the bumper might come off or the wind mirror but you don't have metal fly off.

It would just crumple up, another thing is, that if you ran your car against a wall it wouldn't get to the point of you scratching the paint of the side, as soon as the car made contact with the wall you would most likely lose control due to fricton and the front or end of the car would spin out.

Plus because the car isn't 100% flat it wouldn't scratch that much area on the side of the car, it would be more like a small patch or a few scuffs.

I'm all for damage but when it looks unrealistic i would rather not see it personally.

I was looking forward to Forza (never played the first) but after they said there was no cockpit view, i lost all interest.

I mean for those of you with an excellent 5.1 system and own PGR3 know its amazing when you release of that finishing line and you can hear all the cars around you while inside the car.
PGR3 was a rushed launch title FFS. how can you not have had enough time/funding to add that feature? get rid of the shitty hood cam and replace it with the incar view.

Well yea, assuming you can use that damn awful cockpit view.

I think it's a cool feature but i can't use it to drive round in, plus i think it detracts from the visual splendor of the game.

I wana see the track in all it's 720p (well maybe not) glory, see all that detail, instead of looking through a hazy windscreen where i can only see the road infront of me.

Saying that i do think if they want to compete truely they should add the option for a cockpit view, as fan's do want it, but then you have to weigh up the pro's and con's.

Would you rather have that extra detail on the cars or tracks or inside the car ? (the 360 only has a limited amount of memory and can't do both)

Would you rather have th dev take an extra 3-4 months making 100's of interior models or would you rather have the game 3-4 months sooner ?
