Is this a first for a AAA game with NO gameplay shown before release?

Being the modern day Codemasters i would think so! That's unbelievable!! Hahaha! :lol::lol:

Codies F1 update: F1 2015 is now available on steam..... And yet still no game play footage has been shown??? How crazy!! Haha who's going to pre-order a game without seeing what it looks like? The mind boggles!

MATT PASTRAMNI, Raced on Ax4x for a while, and branched out, Im good friends with the LMR guys. I broke away from TORA until recently, considering they have major plans for PCARS this year (e.g. LeMans, Daytona, GT, etc). With everything PCARS offers, it should be fun.

Yeah I remember you. Nice to get reacquainted!
 
It seems pretty counter-intuitive to continuously rat on another racing game that happens to be coming out around the same time as Project CARS. Racing as a genre isn't as popular as it used to be so regardless of F1 being worse or better than pCARS it is still good to see Codies continue to make racing games - even if for those like myself they don't really hit it off.

The more, the merrier.
 
If anyone is interested, vvv has a video out showcasing all the various graphical settings for ps4 version. Also includes head movement settings. (May have already been mentioned)

In regards to this, I wonder how much of a performance impact those settings have on gameplay. Hopefully someone can clarify once it releases.
 
Can the AI cars spin out and retire due to damage?

According to the video they have no effect on performance but I find that very hard to believe.

Yeah, no matter how good your system is, adding special effects WILL have an effect on performance. I'm just wondering HOW big a difference it makes on PS4.

Depends on the AI Skill level, the cars, the track and the conditions

So, almost definitely not in the dry on Indy Oval but pretty likely in the rain at the Nurburgring then?
 
How will I be able to use the PS4 chat without plugging my earbud into the DS4? I have a full surround sound system so want my main sound coming through that and I'll be using a wheel and not the pad

The video options that are customizable are mostly post-processing FX. They hardly have any impact on performance. Also: Sony/MS wouldn't allow it if they did.

Good.
 
Apparently its more of a personal preference, do you like the lens flares or not? That sort of thing
 
You can pre order through the XBOX and it gives you the LE up grade for free. :D

You have to remember that the game is limited to 60 fps output, that doesn't mean it isn't capable of pushing. 70-80-90 fpsor more in most situations. Features will only affect output if they knock the frame rate below 60 fps. Knocking it from 90 to 70 fps for example, will not affect what you see on the screen.
 
I have two questions: Will be able to see a team's livery before you sign with them and two just out of curiosity have any of the WMD members here mentioned the "tractor dlc" on the WMD forum?
 
Does anyone know how the clutch works in pcars?
Is it a on and off thing like GT6, or does it actually work like a clutch.

Get stuck in neutral so many times in gt6 :(

I never used it in GT5/6 because it felt so unnatural on downshifts...

There is an option on the PS4 where you can choose where the sound goes.
