Newly announced rally game for X360 by a French developer, looks pretty sweet

Screens

Additional info (bablefish'ed):

more than 30 vehicles, but also of the immense environments of races (more than 10.000 km² for 20.000km of tracks) since our only goal will be to finish at the head and that some is the borrowed way. It should be noted that Grand Offroad Raid will offer to us for the occasion a mode Xbox Live exclusive

RSC2 L00KS BETTAR!

Rallisport reset your car after going off track, hope this game allows some free roaming

 

[TheDiave]

This makes me hungry for that Motor Storm game... The one SCEA showed at the E3 press conference. Now that looked like a truly "next gen" racing experience!

umm.. that was pre rendered.

Is this even rally racing? There's no signs of a "track" in these pics.

Yep. It looks like a mad off roader.

Xbox live could be really fun with this game.

Already you can see they've got the lighting right. Nice one

hehe yes.. cant beleive sony got the hype up with simple prerendered movies that could have been made in 1998

people are stupid i guess..

It's Rally Raid, point to point events where you can take any path you want.

 

[golem]

looks cool.. forest needs more brush though (or better brush)

Sweet, the first thing I thought when I saw these pics was Smuggler's Run.

You mean more bush. I think we could all do with more bush.

 

[FiRez]

am I the only one that think this looks plain bad , I mean look at the grass and other objects on the screen they look like sprites, the model of the cars doesn't seem quite right (ex: the size of the wheels)

 

[maynerd]

Those cars look kinda pasted on. Looks ok though.

 

[HomerSimpson-Man]

4:3 shots?

 

[Lunar Aura]

4X4 EVOLUTION 360. go home!!!!

 

[cyberheater]

4:3 shots?

PC shots. But it's also getting developed for 360. I would expect the 360 version to look a lot better then this.

 

[dorio]

Why are these screens 4:3? Is this one of those games that's being developed on a pc but they claim is a 360 title because they need a publisher.

 

[Elios83]

Aahaha they try to mask that all the objects in the background are sprites with blur effects :lol :lol :lol :lol

 

[golem]

the models supposed to be that way.. you dont usually just take your SUV and race it across the Sahara.

 

[Teknopathetic]

The environments look nice enough. Once the cars get some proper lighting/shadowing it should look pretty killer.

 

[Kangu]

If you focus on the areas that aren't all blured to hell you will see the truth.

This game is fugly.

 

[Redbeard]

Used to look pretty good.

 

[Doom_Bringer]

Used to look pretty good.

cool! I love those environments, are these from the old canned xbox version?

 

[FightyF]

Obviously this game is very rough as it's unfinished. Technically, it still has a ways to go, as Tre mentioned the lighting isn't even there (note the placeholder shadows for the trees/bush).

But artistically this game is looking GREAT. Great colour palette, models and bg look pretty realistic (despite the lack of any shadows).

Conceptually interesting as well.

 

[Gregory]

I wonder why they make these Dakar rally games as they all sell like crap.

 

[jetjevons]

I have played this demo and it is awesome! They are looking to have 200 cars or so racing simultaneously. Multiple races going on on one map.

The tech is still very early and has a lot leftover from the Xbox version like sprite vegitation, etc.

 

[jet1911]

The concept sound cool and the game look good. I hope the physics are not too "arcade".

 

[LittleTokyo]

Yuck.

 

[raYne]

The cars look like remote control cars in all the zoomed out pics.. :lol

Mmm... next-gen RC Pro-AM. Make it happen!

 

[Spinning Plates]

Mmm... next-gen Revolt. Make it happen!

Fixed.

 

[op_ivy]

it sounds pretty cool and looks decent so far... i look forward to hearing more and seeing more. is this another one of those "we're looking for a publisher" games though? do these guys actually have 360 kits to work on?

[Brosa]

The action in the trailer looks like slow motion and the graphics, well... :/ Is this really from 360?

PC version

 

[dynamitejim]

What the hell? The graphics in that trailer look really good. The lighting and sky look especially nice.

 

[Forsete]

Wow, that looks very fun. I've always wanted a game with freedom to drive anywhere.

 

[Blimblim]

New screens :

 

[Lakitu]

The graphics in the trailer looks sweet. Really, people are expecting TOO much, you're only going to let yourselves down.

 

[AndreasNystrom]

So.. things on Xbox 360 is always realtime, and will be like 40% better with the real hardware, and PS3 is always pre-rendered?

Please why are you trying to trash this thread? Insecure? I guess but please try hard not to.

 

[op_ivy]

depite some TERRIBLE music, that trailer looked pretty sweet. i love those environments, they look quite realistic and are packed with vegitation.

the game looks pretty promising thus far, only thing really lacking is any sort of damage modeling. i'd like to see some really awesome destruction going with those cars (i dont think they were real, licensed cars).


i hope they find a publisher.

 

[Doom_Bringer]

looks superb. Thanks for the update bilm

 

[Davew49]

Exactly right, or at the very least they can create a PS3 thread and discuss insecurities there.

Just a thought...

[Kleegamefan]

This looks great to me

Shut up no one buys rallycross games.

 

[gofreak]

They seem to be using some pretty interesting blur techniques, pretty distinctive.

Actually I thought the enviornments sucked. The cars were going through fences and the fences suffered no damage. The grass and dirt did not leave tracks. The vehicles did not appear to have any slow down when driving through tall grass vs the dirt road. It just didn't look realistic. I am not saying it doesn't look fun though.

Those are usually the telltale signs of a game being pretty early. Same with the non-existant lighting. If this was a game that was shipping, yeah, that'd be pretty bad, but right now it looks as if they're fishing for publishers (and I hope they find one).
