The graphics are incredible. Just look at the road reflections. Just omfg.

since when were roads shiny...

Car models and textures look nice, everything else looks mehh.. Driving physics look retarded, I wasnt too excited about this to begin with but now ill problly pick it up in a few months on sale.

Sun glare on the road in Most Wanted made it all washed out and low resolution even if you used 240x AF filter on it. Same in Undercover. Here, any ground reflection or glare is high resolution and proper looking. If you're asking when the road is shining, try driving in a extreme sun during the summer on a road that has been there for a while and many cars drove over it. It will look like it's shining in the sun under certain angles.

As for the physics, this isn't a simulation so who really cares? What's important here is that cars feel good to drive. If it's realistic or not, that's not even important.
Demo wouldb be nice to see how the game really drives but since store where i pre-ordered gets it on 19th Nov, i'll be able to download war_ez version on 15th to see how it really drives and then decide till 19th. But i think it will be just fine. A bit more arcade-ish, but so was Burnout 3 and it kicked ass.

You might as well not buy the game. :wtf:

It's 9AM here and I'm about to head over to the store to pick this up. It's been a while since I've bought a hard copy of a game. I'll probablly be playing all day. Anyone else picking it up today?

RejZoR · Nov 16, 2010

Darn, Europe release is 19th. The shop where i buy games said they'll start collecting orders today but nothing happened so far. They promised shipping of the games on 18th. As long as it's before weekend, i'm fine with it

erocker · Nov 16, 2010

Game is slowly installing off of the disc now. Screenshots and stuff coming eventually.

Cheeseball · Nov 16, 2010

Overdrive/overclocking aside, make sure that CCC is set a default, or choose "restore factory defaults" I tried forcing AA on and I got the same issue.

zaqwsx · Nov 17, 2010

My name is zach90z hit me up on autolog also!!

^Hybrid do you have all updated drivers?

Hybrid_theory · Nov 17, 2010

Im ryan461 in autolog. hybrid_theory was taken. just reset to defaults and ill try that. though i didnt have aa force enabled. im on 10.8, i will install 10.10 if it happens this time.

zaqwsx · Nov 17, 2010

Did you lower all your video settings?

Yeah no luck either. ill see what disabling the AI does

Yeah, my only other guess would be a CrossFire problem. Disabling AI will take care of that.

Bah didnt work. Guess im either waiting for a patch or a driver hotfix.

RejZoR · Nov 17, 2010

Check the Event Viewer entry to see what was the reason for game to crash. It could be some stupid reason. So check it.

Didn't know you owned a PS3. Sweet!

Lol I certainly do bro, I got the PS3 slim 120gb model, also the Slim Xbox360 and a PSPgo :laugh:

the gaming hardware never ends :toast:

RejZoR · Nov 17, 2010

The cars feel floaty. They felt this way in 3rd person camera in last 4 or 5 NFS games, but this time it's floaty even in bumper cam. Really bad. And sound is nothing to talk about. They were talking about roaring sound of Pagani Zonda and i couldn't hear shit. It was just a generic buzzing of engine like in NFS2... At least i could drive a beautiful Lancer Evolution X.
I'll order the game anyway even though the driving model feels awkward, but when you get used to it its acceptable...

n-ster · Nov 17, 2010

Yea, I didn't like the driving too much either. would have loved the driving of Dirt 2 on this game
