All my rage...
Seriously, this holding a game to a certain date is just tradition from the past that needs to end. If the game is ready and shipped it should be able to be played dammit!

You mean like the trees in this gif?
Oh my goooooddd :O :O
It looks so gorgeous!
Oh my goodness, is there actual hope that the weather patch will include strong, strong winds? Can we possible see rain that gets swept by wind? I mean, all of this makes the gameplay so much more varied and offers a totally cool layer of challenge.
I'm somewhat conflicted. I love pausing in real-time to take snapshots in TLoU and Infamous but for driving games like DC, I think I would prefer GT-style exporting. Better for generating high quality wallpapers.
Nice. There seem to be more options here than TLoU and Infamous.
Evo keeps mentioning Antigua during their interviews.

Any word on the livery editor/options?
It's been hinted as a possible location at E3 last year:
"Model time of day so accurately you could drive at (for instance) 4.22 AM in Antigua and conditions will be exact perfect."
There's details in the OP. Supposedly they have a full wind simulation which effects the movement of the clouds as well as the foliage based on height of the foliage/strength of the wind. They said it effects the water as well.

Guys, read the OP, lol.
The wind affects even the water. Trees and clouds too.
I'm not sure about wind resistance and all that. All I know is some people online are getting real good, real fast. -_-

Or they could unlock it on PSN right now for pre orders.

Far as I know we can't make our own liveries, only select from pre-made ones. I found that a bit disappointing as it would have been great to have a red and white NeoGAF logo with a maple leaf poking out from behind . . . The Secret Canadians!

Heard it in the last thread, but not sure how accurate it is.
It makes the most sense in terms of nailing the entire spectrum of variety locations, though. I mean, a tropical setting like that would be incredibly refreshing when it hits, and just imagine the rolling thunderclouds, dammit!

In other words if you buy ps+ for a couple of bucks you get a HUGE discount on the full game. So. Worth.

Rally car and off-road DLC would be great Evolution Studios.

I'm so pumped for this game.
Cars only have visual damage. Scratches, window cracking, etc. It doesn't effect the performance of the car.
This is disappointing, the game should disqualify the lap time if the cars 4 tires go off the track. This ruins the competitiveness and makes trials pointless. Very sad, as I was looking foeard to time trial events like in GT games.

This is completely illogical to street date a games that a lot of people have it right now

I don't think it has been mentioned since then, I would advise you putting stock into it

Hey we're in the same Club
Sorry, I forget about all the little details. I wasn't certain about if there would be really strong winds with the audio to match it, and the resistance that would affect the gameplay. I am assuming the latter is not included as it is something ambitious that we may see for a sequel, but I'm good with what we have.
I can't tell if you're joking or not
Ok, thanks. Can't wait.
Why wait you ask? Because i can't buy the game right now! That's why! D:

This is a game that I feel screenshots will never do justice, it'll look so much better up on your big screen and when you're in motion/actually driving.

Keep in mind that Evo is balancing the skill it takes with accessibility.
More practically, you would want to avoid going off tracks and the best time trials are going to be the ones that stay on the road, I imagine

That's a real shame, especially with the 'club' concept - some really good potential there.
Ah well... maybe DLC?

Unless I misunderstood from Gamersyde's stream yesterday it sounded like you can make 4 custom liveries to use on cars.

The game is not M rated. Don't think that's going to happen...

Hell yeah, quick moving afternoon rain showers, followed by clearing sky, humidity, and sun god rays.
It was from E3 last year. Just mentioned during a presentation and then never again.
But will we get Antigua? Or will we get something many of us have been asking for? Who knows!

Hey I know you. Where did you buy it?
I can't hope for even a little simulation?

Yeah, the way it works is:
1 - Shield (background shape/image)
2 - Flourish (shape encompassing main symbol, goes over top the Shield)
3 - Symbol (your main image, goes over top both Flourish and Shield)
Both Flourish and Symbol can be adjusted in scale or turned off altogether if you're looking to marry your Club paintjob with a simplistic badge. Works well, but I haven't unlocked any worthwhile Shields.

Wait, do you know something? Spill it!
Yep! They both have indirect shadows when in the shade.
Old discussion but that car is most likely shot in a studio and pasted on there. The shadow is extremely fake in that PR shot.
Well, we know a new location is coming, and like TimeEffect said, a tropical setting is the kind of perfect environment to show off the game's lighting and weather engines, as well as being a total looker if it includes tracks featuring both some sea side (turquoise waters) and tropical forest (flashy flowers!).I don't think it has been mentioned since then, I would advise you putting stock into it
And also, West Indies for life. <3
It just must happen, now !

AG SYS just won another challenge!
Longer video coming up showing off the game's dynamic atmospherics to great effect during a race.
I fucked up almost beating my own time just to add salt to the wound but oh well lolz... Scenery is just too pretty. *-*

Don't worry, I agree with you. 2 wheels on the tarmac or the lap isn't clean.

Makes me think of a Motorstorm Apocalypse like severe tornado storm. I would like to see that, and I would like to race in that. Yep
This.
Auto-braking, rewind...just learn to drive the car properly. All these driver assists...

I'm completely ignoring the game's main Events due to ongoing Club challenges...
The funny part is that game ticket events track player times on the fly as well, and are littered with Face Offs to complete around the track. So you're never wasting time when it comes to earning Fame.

Yeah I wouldn't want that in as well. Maybe on a practice mode but not for actual races. I would say that I wouldn't use it but then just end up doing it for some screw up anyway (Dirt, though I mainly did them because I just wanted to get the race out of the way).

I was under the impression the game penalizes you for leaving the track, so the best times should still be the ones that stay on the road.
