I think Grid needs Formula Truck

I was just playing GRID 1, doing a open wheel race... I have forgotten how fun that game is. The A.I. is quite good and competitive. Also, I like the freedom we have to adjust the steering wheel settings.
Codemasters really know how to bring the fun factor that most games lack.
GRID AS is a day one buy to me. 👍

Is that Indianapolis?

On top of that, I would love to see a abillity to take ingame pictures within GAS.

I think you are right AudiMan2011. You have an idea which location it could be on the circuit?

By the looks of it, the F3 picture could be on the main start/finish straight, especially when compared to that F1 pic.

The car on the right is the racing Aston V12 Zagato.
The track looks like Mont Tremblant?

Damn! It's just getting better and better :crazy:

edit..

I am very happy to see that there is a great variety of racetracks so far and quite a few you just don't see that often outside of the "licensed" F1 games.

Glad that there is some "freshness" included 👍

The HUD looks very clean, I like it. Curious on the placement of the damage indicators. Usually below the gauge?

What does the 9th//Balanced mean?

I asked on Twitter about the HUD, I wanted to know if it was customisable as I don't like a cluttered screen.

They replied that the HUD has 'lots of options', so I'm guessing/hoping that I can just have my gear, revs and lap times on display.

The one thing I didn't ask about and that I haven't seen in any videos is a HUD rear view mirror. The only rear view mirror I have caught sight of is the first cockpit view. Anyone else seen/know anything?

That's the current status of your teammate. 9th means , he is in 9th place and balanced is his state of mind currently racing. You will be able to change that with the touch of a button. Making him attack or defend.

Strangely however your teammate in the screenshot has a different car and livery?!?!

@anim8r_uk is this a small error in the picture or did I explain wrongly?

As far as I know there will be no working mirrors, not in car and no static. The white arrows will show were opponents are. If you turn the HUD off I don't know if your white opponents arrows will still be shown.

And is overall driving a different car. How interesting! Thanks for the insight, didn't see anything about having a team mate so that's new to me.

Good spot.... looks like a small error to me. Your team mate should be in the same car and livery as you :)

Either that, your teammate is just out of shot or you've just passed him and the screenshot was taken just before it updated.

Hmmmm, for me this is a huge negative. I like/need to see what's going on behind me at certain points when I'm racing...

I no likey!

Thanks mate.

I don't really understand, they didn't have time to include it? Surely when designing/creating the HUD a rear view mirror is a priority, they are kind of important...

Arrows don't really cut it when racing bumper to bumper, door to door. Maybe in an update...

EDIT: Have shared my concerns and asked if we can expect mirrors in a future update in the CM forum. Thanks again doblocruiser for the linky!
