Need For Speed Hot Pursuit Thread

[Jaffakeik]

played demo on ps3 i liked it atleast as cop,will se what fl version brings on PC

 

[RejZoR]

So let's hope the final version for PC is awesome!



And also check out this video where Craig Sullivan explains the demo.
NFSHP - Demo Explained

What a load of nonsense. So, the final version will be just as optimized as the demo would be. Not much it appears. And i'll believe it when i see it. So if there won't be any demo, i'll just "try" the full version and then decide. If they don't like it, who cares. I also don't like the fact that there won't be any PC demo as well...

Ok so this is gonna be a heck of a title. Best Game of the Year's nomination for sure, with Starcraft II: Wings of Liberty and Battlefield: Bad Company 2, and some others awesome games

Yeh for sure, but starcraft 2 really is THAT good? Imo the battles look boring and no running and gunnin at the same time wichy would just piss me off. Give me supcom series. But ah well everyone has his own taste in games.

 

[RejZoR]

I agree about the Starcraft 2. First only marine campaign and then the fact it's pretty much a Startcraft 1 converted into 3D.

Starcraft 2 IS. Of course it's personal preferences you know. I've played all Diablo 2, Warcraft 3, Brood War and never get bored. It's just amazing you know ! I love how Blizzard makes their games (right now my only wish is have a chance to try WoW: Cataclysm later this December)

New Video about Seacrest County

 

[Hybrid_theory]

Couple questions, and i want your opinions on it. SHould i pick this up on pc or ps3. Im all for supporting pc games. But with NFS shift I found i had to tone down some settings a fair bit to get good frame rates. there were times were it was bad (corners and such). I plan on using either my 360 controller or logitech wheel if i get it on pc, so ps3 has the controller as well. I think nfs shift had a bit better support for the driving force gt on the ps3, but i cant confirm that for sure. So ps3 or pc.

 

[Anarchy0110]

If possible, get both of them.
Don't really know why you were struggling with Shift on (which system btw ) your computer?
But in my opinion, Criterion will do this well and no need to worry about any kind of graphic problems at all. 11 days to go

Both = more money. My comp is in the system specs. Not sure why it was struggling but it was. lowered things like af and aa, and i think shadows as well. maybe a few others.

You should get the game for PS3 only if all your friend's have PS3s. If they have PCs or if you don't play on playing multiplayer, go for the PC version. Did you update NFS Shift? When it came out, it had some problems with ATi. Even my laptop and Rig#2 is able to play SHIFT at max settings (8xAA), at 1080p at above 60FPS. A 4870X2 should be able to hit a 100FPS+.

I doubt any1 i know with a ps3 is getting this. I may have updated shift which did some improvement, not sure now.

Bring on the King of Need For Speed, the McLaren F1

I will probably get this game for the PS3 aswell, most likely, I will consider PC when the time comes

definitely patch the game, my 5870 had issues when it first came out, and my GTX260 was getting much better FPS, about 55-60 compared to 40's. then it got patched and also better drivers and the 5870 shot up to 100+ fps, your 4870x2 should be able to pull off about the same. hec even my mobility 5650 with a light oc in my laptop cracks a solid 45 odd fps @ 720p maxxed settings 4xAA, but feels deadly smooth too.

PC should always have the best wheel support too.

TECH INTERVIEW if you haven´t read it before... they talk A LOT of things about the CAHMELEON ENGINE and technical specs. check it out guys

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-needforspeed-tech-interview

The MOST interesting part:

Digital Foundry: But you're presumably optimising for 30Hz. Could you run Chameleon in a 60FPS game like Burnout Paradise?

Alex Fry: Yes, but we'd obviously change it again. The actual engine, the underlying engine - partly because of the latency, partly because of the online - the underlying code is running at 60. The game code is running at 60. You can see that on the PC version, the stronger machines will run at 60FPS.

So there are many reasons we wanted the game code to be running internally at 60. It's only rendering at 30FPS because we wanted the visual quality. The game has to look stunning. These cars deserve that. But the game itself is still running at 60 and we would definitely choose to harvest a lot of this into a future project.

Digital Foundry: An entry level Core 2 Duo and an 8800GT gave you 1080p60, pretty much. I thought it was great - maxing out the settings, lowering CPU speed, disabling cores and then slotting in progressively weaker GPUs and it was still working very nicely.

Alex Fry: We've kept the same ethos and haven't done anything to impact the speed of the fast engine we've got. The learning's still there, the same performance is still there.

Richard Parr: Low-end PCs may suffer on the CPU side this time compared to Paradise than on the graphics side. We've put a lot of work into making the physics more realistic and that takes more time and in terms of how the SPUs are used on PS3 or the other threads on 360, if you draw a graph from it (which we do!) we're doing a lot more work this time than on Paradise.

60FPS at 1080p PEOPLE!!!

 

[Stak]

instant buy for me..... wanted to buy CoC BO too but screw that now... after all the things it read about it (buy weapons ect.)

 

[zaqwsx]

This game looks even more promising after reading that. These guys are doing a good job on making this game what it should be.

This is one of the few games making me reconsider my "no buying games on launch day" rule. Doubt I can talk the wife into letting me drop the loot for it tho.
