Premium/Standard Jaguar comparison

[Short Bus]

To all that hate on being charged for standard to premium (oh there was 5 other cars added in the DLC) All new by the way..! PD still needs funds to go out and grab real models of these standard cars, do you really think they want to charge us? if you want more Standard to premium, dont get all pissy over the ONE that came with FIVE NEW cars which every seems to disregard..

I'm sure that 99.9% of those who purchased the DLC would have done so had the Jag been upgraded for everybody.

It doesn't matter, in the end all of these DLC additions will be provided as non-DLC content at some point or another, which is why I'm not buying any of it.... because I don't care to pay for the same thing twice.

You don't think a PS3 game should have shipped with PS3 quality cars throughout? That is what sucks about paying for this upgrade, because it's just upgrading to the quality it should have been to start with. There shouldn't have been such a thing as standard and premium, everything should have been at PS3 quality. It wasn't and they're fixing it, but charging us extra money for them to bring a car up to the quality that matches the console is ridiculous to me.

What qualify as PS3 quality ?The standards looks tons better than GT4 cars.Some of the standards look better than other current gen racers ive played.I dont mind having standards but paying for upgrades atleast at full price I dont support that... even tho they gave us some free cars.

Fools, half the whole lot of this forum i tell ya Whatever this forum quickly goes from PREMIUM not standard Jaguar talk back to this pesky insolent ranting! Let the praise of the Jaguar continue !

 

[Downhill Dino]

What? I... don't understand.

 

[Toyota GT1]

Now actually, i do have one quick problem with this Jaguar *gasp*. Why in the cockpit view does the Last lap timer not work ! Its right there in our faces! its not fair

 

[DaveS1138]

This car should be free for everyone. The other 5 cars I can see being charged for in DLC but the Jag that's already in the game should have been made free to all.

I think that PD are getting themselves into a dodgy area with this. I agree it should be a free upgrade but with so many standards to upgrade they are never going to do that for free.....and with 5 other cars in the pack I can stomach getting this one without feeling I am paying for it.

I would imagine if PD are going to upgrade more standards they would do it in the same way. Give some new cars and mix the upgrade in with it.

another comparisson of the two cars.

You cant go wrong with how they handled this car

These things, including clocks, fuel gauges, etc, do not seem to work in any of the premium cars. There might be a few notable exceptions, but these seem to be just that, exceptions.

Guys stop arguing. Look at My sig and all is explained.
Before people complained that standard cars should get changed to premium now they are complaining on why a standard car should be upgraded to premium. Hahahaha
Is it about the money because last time I checked developing the model for that car is not free and last time I checked there are very little things in the world that are truly free.
I am sorry but the game came out saying and listing the premium and standards cars. This premium Jag was not on their. Therefore this is extra (that is what DLC is for those who complain for every DLC pack to come out). You expect them to give it for free lol.

Its kind of pathetic how some people act like they are obliged to somethings in this game. You paid for the game that is it. Whether you think its unfinished or not it is your fault as you should have doen the research.

By the way it looks like there is a lot of information failure in this thread.

THE ONLY REASON WE GOT THIS JAG IS BECAUSE IT WAS PARTLY MODELLED JUST BEFORE THE GT5 WAS RELEASED. KAZ SAID FOR DLC HE IS NOT GOING TO REMODEL STANDRAD CARS TO PREMIUM BUT FOCUS ON NEW CARS.

Yes. Those exceptions are easy to handle, but sometimes ya wonder why some premiums get the better treatment than others

This forum would be a much more peaceful place with more people like you 👍

The standards looks tons better than GT4 cars.

They look identical because they are identical, except for the ones that are glitched and therefore look worse; and the convertibles which no longer have their interiors.

Now actually, i do have one quick problem with this Jaguar *gasp*. Why in the cockpit view does the Last lap timer not work ! Its right there in our faces! its not fair

There are only a handful of Premium cars where anything besides the speedometer and tach actually work.

yes yes i know, im just saying, its dissapointing at times to look at

Well ofcourse they look identical because they are ports.But they still look better and not PS2 quality like naysayers keep trying to make it seem.Which ones are still glitched exactly?

 

[Toyota GT1]

I no longer own GT4, but i can assure you the only reason we all thought those cars looked amazing back then is simple, we didnt have (well.. MOST people) HD tv resolution like today. back on a box, anything looked magnificent ! The HDMI setting and Premium cars have only shown us, what the past REALLY looked like

 

[sumbrownkid]

Nice to see the topic returning to the comparison.

Beautiful car, if only it were quicker.

The GT-One could be the next car to be modeled. PD doesn't have to track this car down as it is used occasionally in small public events.

And there is another one sitting in a museum in Japan.

I just hope they model the number 1 and 2 cars.

GT4 could output 1080i. I used to play it on my old CRT HDTV that way.

 

[Dmarc_Atl]

I still have GT4 the first thing I did when I got GT5 was compare the standards to GT4 cars on HDTV the standards look better but they are basically HD upgrades.
Back before GT5 came out when they said standards would be HD upgrades I was thinking GTHD quality lol

 

[devildog666]

Oh well, nice but not worth the money for a car I'm probably not going to use.

I can understand charging a few bucks to add brand new cars, but to charge to pretty up content that already exists seems..... wrong.

You're not getting charged just for that car. It's just one of 6. The other 5 are new.

Cant wait for the day i hear an update of a premium GT1. im not sure what my body will do

GT4 could output 1080i. I used to play it on my old CRT HDTV that way.

Yes it could be outputted *fun fact: it was one of the 2 ONLY ps2 games to be able to do so, pat on the back PD!* But, ive only seen gt4 on a box, therefore i do not know how good HD looked on Gt4 sadly

Um, did anyone notice when you get the car it actually gives you the paint chip? I figured it was a glitch after I went into the paint chip area and it had a blank name lol. Probably just an oversight by PD.

If you paint a car with it, it's just the Silk Cut Purple.

 

[seanchump]

Can someone do a side by side speed test comparison between the two Jags?

 

[Toyota GT1]

I think the Speeds are identical, as im nearing 1000+ hp just as my standard is, just a couple hundred more miles should do the trick

 

[maddog999]

The Jag is excellent, i would say incredible but the sounds aren't quite there. An improvement on the standard but lacks the roar of the big Jag V12. Sounds are probably more important than looks in terms of immersion, for me at least.

Driving from inside it's better than the Mazda/Pug/Audi with the best view of the road and nicest cockpit layout. 👍

 

[TypeRDC5]

Then you must buy another from the dealership to truly appriciate what PD has done to this car... by driving it in cockpit view around La Sarthe

The cockpit view in this car is awesome! up there with the mazda 787b.

I cant say its better than the 787B's however! the 787 has a few dials and things the Jaguar does not have functioning however...

.. but, Yes it is definately WAY up there

 

[McClarenDesign]

I'm glad the DLC incuded the upgrade. The difference is huge!

Here's what I did at La Sarthe a few minutes ago. Not the greatest, but I do appreciate the little things PD did with it.

Now if we could just change the livery.

the livery!? thats the BEST PART!
