Im really impressed with the scale of the game. Definitely looks like a sequel to Hot Pursuit which is fine by me.
Question is, will the PS4 version look as good as those videos?

Has it be confirmed to run in 1080p on next gen systems?

Cool thanks for those.

In the second Cop video, when the Cop tries to EMP the racer and the Racer "counters" it, he says that the racer returned it and actually hit him with the EMP instead :confused: Now, to me it just looked like the Racer BLOCKED the EMP using a JAMMER (just like in HP 2010) as opposed to having RETURNED the EMP to the Cop which is what the narrator implied (but didn't sound too sure) ... He really shouldn't be talking crap and making assumptions like that unless he's 100% certain that is infact the case! .. It only creates more confusion. :grumpy:

I still think it really sucks to only have 2 tech slots, I think 3 or 4 would have been the ideal number without being able to spam weapons all over the place.

Another point, when the cop busts a racer it seems very uneventfull :rolleyes: ... I'd like to see a small 2 or 3 second cutscene with "BUSTED!" like in HP2010 just to get a better sense of accomplishment/satisfaction when you actually bust a racer!!

Its the little details that make the biggest difference! :)

That is in game my friend, skip to 3:17.
 
I think that this game should be released not every 1, but 2 or 3 years. This game need a fresh look on it, something revolution, but all the time looks like old, good NFS. I don't get the Rivals at all. Whenever they announced a new Need for Speed I had thrills, now I don't.

Ferrari install the roof!!!??!! ( 2:00 )
Click to expand...

I noticed that aswell but I dont think so...

Firstly I think its a Pagani not a Ferrari .. but I don't think its putting up is roof..

Secondly, I think most (if not all) convertibles have a max speed limit at which the roof can go up and down - usually very low, something like 30mph

Thirdly, I don't think the control pads have any more free buttons (like the D-pad) that could be used for gimmicks such as horn/roof/lights because they needed those buttons to map the bloody AllDrive feature. (If they had any free buttons i'm SURE they would have used them for more than just 2 weapons!)
 
1. I'm sure that's Ferrari. This is pre-alpha so "max speed limit" wasn't taken into account.

2. I believe that Ferrari install the roof.

3. In ps3 / ps4 contoller - Available are R3/L3 (press)
 
First, i love watching the videos but i feel like im spoiling the game a little.
Second, WHAT, we will be able to control the roofs on convertibles (faints!)???

Yeah sorry, youre right, it is a Ferrari not a Pagani, my bad ... I didn't watch the rest of that video :P

I'd be almost 99% sure its a random glitch , just like this other glitch that I'm surprised nobody else noticed....

Look in the below video from 00:09 seconds, the Ferrari has that small square symbol on the back.. like if an EMP is locked-on, but there isn't and the symbol still follows the car for way too long :rolleyes:

I'm just saying don't get too excited over nothing... Im sure if the roof going up/down is a feature we would have seen it in a Racer Gameplay video by now when the racer is driving the Ferrari 458 Spider!!

Anyway, if you go back to th video where you think the Ferrari's roof is going up, skip to 2:51, you will see that the Ferrari's roof is still down!

I think what you see at 2:00 min is not the Roof but just a status "window" that maybe contains some Info about the racer or something

We are finding some really good info, keep up the good work guys as we near this thread's 1000th post. Just a reminder, it is Tokyo Game Show this week so expect the possibility of new info or gameplay of the current build of the game from the Personalisation trailer.
 
I am expecting the TGS build to be the same as the one that we are seeing in these new videos. Most likely the build at Eurogamer Expo will be pretty much feature complete and they will announce something there.

This might be useful for later.

Copied-and-pasted from Most Wanted, no? Looks worryingly similar.

Looks like it. Probably is a very close copy and paste to the map just with no "boundaries" of online lobbies and added a few cop cars that are drivable.
 
That lighthouse was in the first game play of rivals. Its not from MW as look inside the corner. Theirs that shack,MW was just a rail and a hillside.
