dark_ruffo: How did you do that trick or was it a bug in the game?
 
I don't know if we can call it a bug, but back in the Prologue Demo, if you paused the game when the race just began, the cars weren't fully drawn.

I haven't tried it in the full release tho.

I hope what I just said makes sense, I had a hard time trying to figure out how to explain it LOL
 
Has anyone noticed that opponents cars a flat in the distance. Like when you zoom in on your car at the start of the race you might be able to catch a bit of the car infront or behind out of focus..... they are just flat images! :scared:

When you get closer more detail is slowly added and then you get the full show when up and close.

I think the secret is that PD put way more effort into it than most other studios...

That's called LOD or Level of Detail. It happened in GT4 and GT3 also.
