No, there's nothing of the shift syndromes left I assure you..

Here's an example lap from me.. I'm pretty sure anyone can see it drives nothing like shift (even from a yt vid)

I could see that the car is more responsive than in Shift. Unfortunately, I don't have the PC to try it out for myself :)
Does the curbs upset the car? You didn't seem to hit any of the big ones. Oh, and nice driving by the way 👍

Guess I'll have to find out when a demo comes out for the PS3. If they're even gonna release before the next gen consoles.
 
The new tire carcass (which is being tested in the FB) goes a long way to making the cars behave correctly on kerbs. Before even touching a curb meant you were gonna spin.

Edit: Just uploaded another vid.

Cheers Jerwin, check out my YT channel.. there a lot more vids that highlight the new better handling. ;)

Isn't this game being developed by Slightly Mad Studios? After playing Shift 2, I don't think I ever want to buy another game from them. The graphics mean nothing to me if I can't even drive the car properly. But still, they do look amazing...

Play GTR2 and see if you still feel the same way.

You shouldn't worry, the guys from Blimey (the core dev team of GTR2) are now working at SMS. And Ian Bell (Head Of Studio) is the co founder of Simbin. They know what they're doing ! After nearly 1 year of membership i'm 99% sure it's gonna be my favourite sim along with Assetto Corsa :)

Yes curbs do upset the car.

It is indeed the same people but the important thing to remember is that unlike Shift 2, they aren't under the constraints and pressure of a big time publisher so they actually will have this far more polished.

Not only that. The community are the ones funding it and almost all of us are saying make it as sim like as possible. Also the majority are actually telling SMS to take their time and not to release it too early.
 
How long does the activation email take to get to you? I am trying to download pCARS again, but I can't do it until I get the activation email.

Do racing compounds even produce tyre squeel? It's like in GT5 where the tyres squeel through every movement, which is rather annoying. But then in real life you never hear any tyre squeel unless they lose control and crash.

I could be completely wrong, though. But it's just something I've been wondering and I doubt you would hear the tyres that loudly in the cockpit.

Those sounds are far from finished.
 
Tire squeal for all cars will likely be in the game as it is one of the few things sim racers have for telling what the car is doing. However the final game will have sliders for each sound so you can tweak it to your liking. :)
 
I wonder what happened to the Mitsubishi Lancer Evo X FQ-400, they started working on it and last year they stopped just like that :grumpy:
 
Another lap record at Summerton Kart track. :D

I thought I was a really slow driver compared to some of them out there.
 
^ I agree, it would be a terrific swan song for the PS3.
 
Anyone else thinking there will be a PS4 version along with the PS3 version? Diablo 3 and Destiny will have both formats.
 
Considering the PC like set up the PS4 will be using, I can't imagine it'd be that difficult to adapt it to the new console from the PC version using PS3 elements. But I'm not familiar with how these things work.

Graphics & Driving experience wise it would be better off on the PS4.

That means they should dump the WiiU too? I'm not going to be in a hurry to get a PS4 until GT6 is released. If GT6 is a launch title, I can only hope my wife gets me a PS4 for my birthday, around Thanksgiving. Otherwise, I'll have to wait until Feb. of next year. pCARS on PS3 would hold me over nicely!
 
Seems like it'd be pretty easy to port it up to the PS4 since it's on x86 and all PC-like.
 
I really hope it's a PS3 release. I haven't heard anything to the contrary, but I've been itching for this game for what seems like ages and a PS4 only release would kinda be a slap in the face. Although if it runs best on the PS4, then it's hard to argue with maximizing the game's potential. But not everybody can run out and drop $600-$700 on a gaming console at a moments notice.
 
If the game is released on next-gen I'm pretty certain it would still be on current gen as well, either that or they've outright lied when they told us about progress of the console game, which I doubt.
 
Since there is PS3 on their list i believe that is not going to change. Doubt that they also made it for ps4.
 
They certainly could have been/could be developing it for next gen consoles but they can't tell us if they are because of NDAs.

At least they keep hiring more and more talent from the industry. I am sure it is not for nothing. ;)
Still, no word of a PS4 release and the 360 and PS3 developments are still going and are too far into development to just cut off imo. So I really doubt that will happen.
 
People, please be reasonable and dont panic. There are millions of PS3s out there that wont just go "poof* when the PS4 will arrive. Most people who are interested in pCARS wont have a PS4 when the game drops. SMS has already invested 15 months of development they paid themselves into the PS3/xbox 360 version which is completely different architecture than PS4/PC.

There isnt a single good reason why SMS shouldnt release the game on PS3/Xbox 360, or rather stop development for those versions now. Relax.
