Just watching that trailer I see some of the things I really hate in racing games, no damage to your car, naff collision detection system and crashes (the car crashed into a metal poll holding up a chain link fence and he stopped dead in his tracks), sound effects that sound crap when you change gear/break really fast.

They havnt included damage for the reason that its an online mmo also does include offlline ie 10,000 people on a server and your driving around and some idiot smashes into you and you got to pay to get it repaired.

Also another reason is Licences Manafacturers dont allow there cars to be ruffed up annoying it is thats how it is im afraid.

Still its a great game shame there been no pc demo but 360 demo was great new one soon.

This game has Bikes aswell as Cars many dealers also can buy houses, the Island is Sattelite mapped and takes 1-2 hours to drive across depending on car etc.

Edit: forgot to add there is damage on the other road vehicles driving around just not peoples cars also there is police and they do chase you.

Its a big game and has a lot of stuff to do and should be very fun.

Bingham from your recent posts you are either dangerously obsessed with this game or the worlds worst viral marketing stooge

However I myself am looking forward to this game, as I've mentioned in previous threads though, it does need a little work and I'd suggest we all hold judgement until the soon to be relased second demo.

You could say im obsessed yes but this game is superb

Its just hard to explain to people who are new to it thats all as there is so much and people dont look up the details properly or are misunderstood.

The 360 demo really wasn't much good imo, so i got no hopes for the full game atm will wait for a demo of the pc version.

Why not wait and test second demo like been said and i hate to keep saying it all the time but it was early code there a new demo soon.

If handling was the problem there is driving aid feature what has been implemented since the demo.

Sounds like a really cool game, I've been following it for a few months. Can't wait to get it and work my way up to a nice car then just cruise around the island.

Thats something I would like to do also, I did it in operation flashpoint

Just spawned a car, and myself and went driving, hope this game will be decent.

Suppose they are putting a monthly fee on the PC version?

Not really checked, do MMOs on the consoles get mnthly fees as well?

So. is any one up for making a OcUK clan?

SiD the Turtle · 21 Jul 2006 at 09:10

Problem I see is that there is a 16 player limit on clans. Which is mad.

shimy182 · 22 Jul 2006 at 11:47

well im sure we can make a joint clan.. like an outfit with planetside
kind of like alliance

Zacko · 22 Jul 2006 at 12:18

I'd be up for it, as far as I can tell though they'll be racing clubs, I reckon that could be a right laugh. Me pulling up in a banger when your all in Lambos

shimy182 · 22 Jul 2006 at 19:49

meet you when the games comes out.. i will open another thread to do with this.
Then make the clan and race german cars against german n00bs

Well there been conflicting reports on Atari forum October / November but what i can say is certainly dont think its September only 360 version.
