That's the first shot that i've seen that shows that they really did model the underside of the car. And it's not just some flat texture as you see in a lot of games, it's actual detail.

Ah i was about to be blown away by the quality, lighting, and surfacing.. But now that you mention it...wait no, its still impressive compared to everything out on the console market.

Funny thing is... cars in GT5 do get dirty, as opposed to almost any other racer out there, and you can see snow build up on the first pic, but hey... people are always gonna bitch about something.

About snow getting attached to the car, is that common in rally? I looked through some photos on Google now and from what i can see, the cars have very little snow on them. Here is one example:
http://www.subaru-wallpapers.com/bulkupload/wallpapers/Subaru Impreza/Subaru-WRC-Rally-Snow.jpg
They do afterall drive very fast so the wind will blow off much of the snow. If the car is cold and if it is powder snow and when they drive fast, i doubt that much of this snow will attach itself to the car. The GT5 snow photo seems to be on an Alaska track, so i guess it can be pretty cold there.

Huh? How many other racing games do you play outside of the GT series?Metalmurphy said:
Plenty of games released in the last little while have had cars getting dirty in them, it's caught on like in-car view in games. Maybe less sims have cars getting dirty, but then again there aren't many sims out there.
And criticizing lack of snow buildup based upon 2 screens is misguiding. If you see any videos of the Rally stages, the effect of snow/dirt on the cars is very apparent.
The snow casts more of a gradient of snow across the body of the car, and little bits here in there, I guess he was expecting chunks of snow in the grille and stuff. Good video here showing some of the effects of dirt on cars. Looks pretty realistic to me, depending on how you classify a McLaren F1 on a dirt track as realistic :loltest_account said:

Ok, i see. Ye, maybe chunks of snow can attach itself to the grill sometimes in snow rally, but maybe it doesnt always happend, especially if it is powder snowenzo_gt said:
But who knows, maybe more snow effect are present in GT5, but not just on that picture?Thanks for the link
I saw that video earlier and i think that the dirt effect on the car looks pretty good indeed. Hehe ye, funny to see a McLaren F1 drive on a rally stage Metalmurphy

What are people gonna bitch about next?
Outside of dedicated rally / offroad games? I can't think of one, although I'm sure there's one of other, but it's certainly not the norm for this type of game.enzo_gt said:

Nice, thanks for the comparison pictures!Metalmurphy said:
Seems like the snow effects attaching to the car looks quite realistic indeed.PGR3, PGR4, and TOCA 3 (I believe) all had it, but yeah I was wondering how you generalized that based upon the stark resurgence of rally games recently. Otherwise, generally cars "getting dirty" is reserved for games with weather or off-roading, and isn't pictured or needed in games very often.Metalmurphy said:

i guess caring about the way snow residue remains on the cars during racing is a sign that the game is doing well enough for people not to be worrying about more important things like how the game plays in the snow, etc.

Yeah, what he said.
This or no sale! :lol
I think some people expected snow like this on the car:
Whereas real rally cars only get snow as shown in the pictures you guys posted, which is what the game seems to be showing.
I think many people forget the rally cars start off warm and clean and drive on hard packed snow and snow and slush does not stick, unlike our own cars which start off cold and covered in snow and we drive slowly on slushy roads.

People should just stick to the rules, because not everyone has this script installed.
Tbh, gaf should have this enabled by default.

Hope to see business pick up as more and more copies are out in the wild. And it seems the game is out in France :lol
I cleaned up and refined the track/locations part of the OP. Now we have locales and tracks with added flags up to date with most of the information known.

I'm not singling out your post to make an example but he did do it right. He linked the full shot with a preview in smaller form. I can't remember the term but the way he did it is fine. Unless it was showing in full size and he edited.AndyD said:

I added a few more sentences to the rules to clarify things. As long as people resize or link to their pics instead of posting huge walls, then we're all goodAndyD said:

I'M PREPARED TO SEE WALLS OF PICS.
i never click thumbnails.
what I think the rules should say is that the images should be 720p maximum, but if they want to link to a higher resolution, then so be it.
1080p pics fuck up the dimensions on my screen.

Right. Using l on the imgur makes them a great forum size like the stuff on this page. What we need to avoid at all costs is people posting their 8MP photos, as that's what will come out of GT5. They will slow the whole thing to a crawl and are so big they are beyond anyone's monitor.

They can be the width of the screen but to a respectable resolution. I don't want to drag a full monitor's width to view a pic.-viper- said:
It requires the reading of the OP. I would hope everyone would do that. You never know though :lol
