Holy crap the test build is amazing. It looks GORGEOUS, and not just new lighting - new textures, and they've not just 'dressed' the old maps, they seem to have upped the resolution of the heightmap as well as add LOADS more fidelity and natural undulation to the ground - no more fields that could be a LFS circuit... They also have realised that people will want to climb all over the maps like mountain goats - there are lots more sneaky places that are accessable to the more nimble tanks who are prepeared to experiment.

As for physics -anyone with a T-50-2 is in for a treat

Just had a game where both teams got in a long train behind the T95 and PUSHED to see how fast we could get it going

Yeah, I find I can only drive with the virtual wheel if there's no input lag whatsoever. If there's even a fraction of a second between my real hands moving and the virtual hands moving I just find it way too distracting.

If you're* that stupid to fill out your own info (bank details, no less!) for something that someone else signed up to, then you deserve everything you get.



*A hypothetical 'you're', not you personally

Could you post a replay of an 'average' lap and we'll have a look and tell you where you can improve?

Quote from Taavi(EST) :

Well...


No more info on VLN yet. They didn't want pictures taken of it, probably still way too WIP to show anything. Or maybe they had it converted from nkpro just for testing purposes. Then again...they have it licensed (logo on the track menu indicates license) Non licensed tracks like Mugello aka Scaperia on their track list have no official logo on them.

Aaaarrrghhhhh this is going to be amazing!!!!!!!

Can't get the stream to work - I'm getting a frame about every 30 seconds.

So codes are at 10:30, 12:30 and 13:30 uk time.

They've got the old Monza and the Nürburgring Südschleife.

Please excuse me for I have just jizzed into my pants

This

Fry, quick, give them all my money too!

Quote from P5YcHoM4N :

Ewww, I think you should send it back and get a better one.

Yes, well not all of us have a quarter of a million pounds lying around

Quote from kappa007 :

u meanz house?
wow nice, enjoy living

Yep

It's all mine (or at least, will be in 30 years once I've paid of the mortgage...)

Today I spent £85,000.

On this:


Do I win?

I doubt it would have been a very tight set if they had to actually play whilst being driven around on the back of a lorry.

Quote from CheerioDM :

Gears of War is more fun

More fun than a game that hasn't been released yet? I daresay it is.

Quote from Mysho :

It might be just recycled Crysis 2 with new story line and totally the same hud, missions, trillion dlcs afterwards.

I'm hoping for 'Crysis 1 with the setting from Crysis 2', which looks pretty accurate from that trailer, and is pretty much exactly what I want the game to be

Looks like they've listened to the fact that people hated the linear gameplay in C2 compared to C1.

So. Much. Want.

I know I'll just want to spend hours staring at the map rather than playing.

Needs moar Maiden.

Exactly

If WoT was going for realism, games would consist of three Tigers (one of which has randomly broken down) sitting in some woods for two weeks one-shotting wave after wave of Shermans and T-34s from 2km away.
