Wouldn´t worry to much about that. PD made it work pretty well in GT PSP, I find it hard to believe they would fuck it up in GT5.Firewire said:
Nice!
It just seems to be non existent in the recent videos. I don't know if its been toned down or if it's completely off in the CES demo's.painful fart said:Wouldn´t worry to much about that. PD made it work pretty well in GT PSP, I find it hard to believe they would fuck it up in GT5.

He mentioned that he's always a little relieved and also angry when releasing any of their games. He's a perfectionist so he's never going to be entirely happy.
had a very high focus on slipstreaming, perhaps a bit too much, i wouldnt be surprised if its been reduced.

You are discussing about a non issue. The slipstream effect will be in. It has been since GT1.

Slipstreaming is working in the Supra video. The Supra just can't overtake the Lexus because it has to brake to make the turn. It just doesn't seem to be as overdone as in the GT Academy.

There is slip streaming in that video and it looks like it's actually done right. The slip stream in prologue was way over the top. I remember the 750pp online suzuka races where you could reel in drivers slower than yourself at 2+ seconds a lap but when you pass them you could not get away. They would just use the slipstream to stay glued to you in the corners and depending on how much straght line speed they had they would just retake the postion on the straights. It became extremely annoying to a point where winning races came down to just following the leader for the whole race and passing him on the final sprint to the finish line. This is the main reason why I hate racing at Fuji, after spending hours tuning your car and getting the perfect setup, finally getting a competitive lap time only to lose to someone because of the ott slip stream.

Nah.
Afaik, the effect was quite strong. You really got sucked towards the other car. I can also remember having a much longer braking distance while approaching a corner behind another car.

What's slipstreaming?

When driving behind another car, there's less air resistance, so you go slightly faster.ghostofsparta said:

It's interesting that with other cars he's struggled to make it into first place, but with the ACR he makes it to first near the start of the second lap. That thing is a beast.

I hope their staff takes a look at those videos with real sound.
Like, it seems thats they make GT games for people with eyes and no ears.
If they put the same effort they put on graphics towards sound, i'm sure we would be close to that.

G37 on the Ring from mimaximax...haven't seen it posted here. Via Fredde_swe at GTPlanet.

Maybe its just me but that G37 is pretty ugly in silver with all that crap on the front. Compared to the Evo behind it it looks pretty bad. Maybe if all those weird pipes were painted black or something it would be different.
I thoughts that as soon as I saw it unveiled last year. And in silver with lots of light on it its even worse.
