Bumper view has never made sense to me, you can't see anything.
You can judge on direct feed somewhat. But not this off-screen :S
Oh really now? Hmm
It looks good to me, really. A better environment to show off than the more sparse location they had at E3.
but, even then, I'm not seeing such a huge leap in graphics from this demo compared to other games for it to be 30 and not 60fps. I know, I know dynamic lighting tech. Still... it looks good but not jaw dropping, unbelievably, nowayisthispossiblewhatamievenseeing good.

eh. looks okay. already getting the free version to test out if i want to upgrade.
This most definitely is going to end up locked at 30fps on release. The whole targeting 60fps was such BS.
Anyway, it looks good, but they aren't really showing anything that makes the game stand out. Are there point to point races or not? I'm surprised all they're showing is a 30 second lap track

Indeed, it makes everything look better.

this is how I feel.
It looks slightly better, but more of the same. Will wait for direct-feed footage. Also, no blurring/DOF =
It's what basically made the game look so good IMO. Hell, it's why NFS Rivals looks absolutely stunning.
NFS Rivals looks stunning because it doesn't let you see how it actually looks? lol
Btw, there is a slight motion blur, and being slight is a good thing.

Yeah, they seem to be one of a few large developers a actually don't develop via 'vertical slice', whatever the opposite of that would be.

Ok, sold. I was worried at E3, but not anymore, looks good enough for a launch title.

GT6 looks good, but once you are playing it you can tell the lower rez textures and much more sparse environments. The environment detail in DC is way more impressive.

Come the fuck on. Where is the direct feed footage for fucks sake?
You just compare a arcade racer to 2 sims.

So is there any reason to buy this game retail if you have PS+? Or will it be cheaper just to upgrade from the Plus version?
Triggerhappytel

Nice try.
It's not 'free' though, at all. PS+ subscribers will get a cut-down version for free as part of their subscription, while everyone else will still have to buy the full game. I imagine Plus owners will be able to upgrade to the real deal for a reduced amount.
If it's an arcade racer, where is the overblown sense of speed? The hyper smooth frame rate? The crashes? The insane environmental stuff?
So it's an arcade racer completely lacking anything that makes a good arcade racer, and it doesn't even look as fun as your "sim" racers.
I'm not clear as to your point, honestly. The game, from where I'm sitting, looks to be a complete stiff.

Windshield reflects the dashboard, nice touch.
But I wish theyre working on a next gen Motorstorm.

I'm guessing you weren't a PGR fan.

I really don't see this. Outside the pre racing stuff I find Forza visual seriously inumpressive: to me this seem to have far better lighting and better enviroment model, expecially given the new gamescon demo

That should look immensely better for 30 FPS
I don't get it either. It's like 'arcade racer' is an excuse for a sim, that isn't as accurate or realistic as a sim.
PGR3 was awesome. In 2005.
By the time PGR4 came out, yeah, my expectations were a lot higher. I never played it.

Reminds me a lot to the original GRID. Still 30fps??!?!, i´m sorry for Evolution Studios, this game has been sent to die.

Alpha build means it is probably around 50% now. Still pretty old to where they are now likely, but oh well. Evolution just works like that I guess.

Still looks poor but need direct footage to confirm. What's with the hands? Can't really see how this has advanced the previous footage.

I think we can safely put the "it looks like PS3" game behind, after this footage. This could easily be the racing game with best looking environments.
And no, it's not not just "Better capture". Framerate is now pretty much rock solid, which wasn't the case before, there were reflections on windshield, which wasn't there before, shadows don't look like messy garbage anymore, and the textures look much higher res on the road and the surroundings.
They still need to do something about aliasing at the very least on the road lines, if not anything else. It looks like road lines are not part of the texture but rather some kind of overlay, and they get aliased more than the texture underneath them. The need to supersample just the lines, or something.

I know. Why are they hiding this game so much.
I honestly have seen little on it other than off-screen videos. It wasn't even shown at the conference. It's like they are just sending it out to die. Why no promotion?

The very beginning of the video when it starts racing is bumper view.

I've seen enough. Gorgeous.
Hey if any of the boots on the ground there at Gamescom can ask specifically what steering wheels will work with this game I'd appreciate it (as would many others here). Thanks.
