ewaawoowaa Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Reading back through the thread...I see that no demo is planned. I can only conclude that you do not have confidence in your game. If your game is a great game then a number one priority would be to get as many people playing a demo as possible.Nobody who got stung with grid 2 is going to buy grid autosport without trying it first.

OctoberDusk06 Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 How can a company strive so hard and get 95% of everything right and let that other 5% relegate the game to mediocre, at best? Upon the latest news, I feel that's what we are going to get with Grid: Autosport.Toca: "The game allows, and sometimes requires, pit stops during which cars can get new tires, fuel, and repairs." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TOCA_Race_Driver_3Grid Autosport: No pitstops. http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=109056267&postcount=100What game can seriously call itself "a more authentic racing game" without pitstops?Without them, tire wear is virtually meaningless and you can't have any real damage model.Too bad Codemasters just can't get out of their own way, because I think they have demonstrated they have the talent and the knowledge to make a truly authentic, broad-based racer for the console.

If you HAVE to include penalties please be aware of the malicious idiots who ram people off track to force a penalty on you in order to get past. if this happens i,e, you are NOT responsible for the "off" penalise the idiot behind as well or instead.Running on the greenery needs to be seriously slower than the tarmac, it was ALWAYS this way in Grid 1, better yet, don't just lower acceleration but make it NO acceleration whatsoever till they return to the blackstuff.Yep, if they implement corner cutting penalties properly this time round then I'm all for it but Grid 2 was a bit broken and as you say getting rammed by idiots and getting a corner cut penalty was not the way to do it. Hopefully our cars wont be catapulted forward when the car behind rams us, but Grid 1 still done it better though there were a few corner cuts that were never fixed, for the most part Codemasters made sure there were off track obstacles to stop most of them or made it a high risk strategy as in Grid 1's Spa race circuit at the Les Combes where you could gain a huge advantage by cutting the corner but if you misjudged it you lost a lot of time.And yes I have been browsing the new forum since I found out about it yesterday and I see ol cap is definitely in fine form ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiatakiasGR Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 i would like pitstops too some times but because mainly i am online player and i like more sort races between 3-5 laps (so no pitstops) is not a big problem for me..Grid 1 has not pitstops too but it was very good with competitive races...if you seek a good racing game with pitstops , you have to wait until november for project cars..:)as well as i would like a flag's penalty system like this of formula 1 series or toca 3 , with notification's flags , too severe lvl or less , +seconds in the end of race , and not like this of grid 2..

ChokDK Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Early Access would really be a good point for this game.I actually never bought GRID (I thought it was all about sliding) but GRID A really looks like a great game.However, reading of all those who (kinda) dissliked GRID 2, and remembering all the usual bugs in F1 games - combined with the Codemasters words "We really listened" - I really see an Early Access as a "reunion" thing between CM and all its community!

For a 10 minute fix you're probably looking at the 5-7 lap races depending on the circuit in question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, Career mode is broken down into five sections (one for each discipline). You can choose which discipline you want to race in and the more you progress through it, the more becomes available.For example, if you take Touring Cars. You'll start off racing with entry level cars and by the end of the career you'll be racing in the more powerful Touring Car Spec Cars.There is no photo mode.

Loore Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Common misconception that GRID 2 was being made for 'several' years, simply not the case :)Completely understand if you've lost trust, I've said it before, will say it again - that's fine. It's entirely up to us to re-earn that trust. Regarding the 5%, obviously lessons have been learnt and we're not above admitting we made decisions that didn't go down well. I'd like to think that when looking at features to put in the game we don't just look at how many people used it, it's what's right for the game.Even less people use split-screen but we still include that for example. Same as female audio names, the call for those are smaller than their male counterparts but it doesn't make them any less important.Team have been working flat out around the clock to get Autosport finished.

Refering to that, I have to ask (once more, sorry) why it was decided to leave out pitting?GRID A seemes to be such a big step forward to semi-sim exept this.. imo.Is it possible to reach implementing in any way?Don't have to be a graphic explosion, just the car going in there and get a repair and/or fuel..

Rather like your massaging of the sales figures.Here is what your own website says about grid 2:http://www.officialplaystationmagazine.co.uk/2012/09/07/grid-2-preview-players-are-going-to-feel-as-immersed-as-a-real-driver/"In pre-production for two years, GRID 2 is now in full development on the latest evolution of the award-winning EGO Game Technology Platform. Following the success of GRID, which set new standards for damage, AI, visuals and introduced the Flashback time rewind feature - now adopted by many racing games – GRID 2 will again raise the gameplay and technological bar for motorsport gaming and remain true to the series’ core value – it’s all about the race."So there was 2 years of pre-production before the actual production started. I would think that is classed as several years in development.It has certainly had more development than grid autosport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VirtuaIceMan Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 I do have a slight sense of fear about GRID Autosport. It seems announced and released far too quickly, almost as though Codemasters thought GRID2 didn't sell well enough, so they undid a bunch of things, re-added GRID1 features, popped in some tracks from GRID1 (okay re-textured) and some from F1, then whack it out as a new game.I'd love to be proved wrong, but seeing the blurry in-car cam (similar to the mod for GRID2) and the list of things changed back to how they were with GRID1 (handling, cockpit, semi-sim, teams, etc), it does sound a bit rushed out.I've watched the F1 games go from the brown/grey stained F1 2010, to something that almost approaches the colourful look of Grand Prix 4, and can't help but wish GRID Autosport had the same sort of naturalistic colouring, as seen in the TOCA Race Driver series.I also yearn for the range of vehicles/championships in the TOCA games. I thought Codemasters had cornered the market with TOCA Race Driver 3, never before in any game had so much varied, well, autosport (heh) been collected into one game. And much of it based on real-life cars or championships. I wish we could have some more of that, ducking from classic F1 to rally, to truck racing, touring car, GT, lawnmowers...!Anyway maybe that's a ghost of Codemasters' past. It's a bit of a shame. Although get some real life championships into GRID Autosport and I'll change my mind! The fields of identical IndyCars in GRID2 just didn't seem very realistic...Maybe for GRID Autosport 2 you could start with a handful of licensed series, then add more via DLC? Who here would buy a game with nothing but the BTCC in it, for example, then add the championships/series they want to, later? Anyway food for thought, I'm rambling now.p.s. I hope Brands Hatch is in GRID Autosport, as it'll then have been in all the TOCA/Race Driver/GRID titles... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loore Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 That depends entirely on your definition of several, but yes, it's more than Autosport - we've been quite open about how quick we got to work on the game after GRID 2 launched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewaawoowaa Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 In this interview on gamestm:http://www.gamestm.co.uk/features/grid_2_interview/The interviewer asks the developer:"games™: You’ve discussed previously that the long development time has enabled the studio to better realise its vision for the sequel. What advancements have you made that wouldn’t be possible a few years ago"So Clive Moody, at some point, has said that the development time of Grid 2 was long.So was it long Loore? Or is Clive Moody wrong?My point remains. This autosport game is rushed compared to Grid 2. I would be interested to know how you have managed to produce a superior game in less time.

In one interview they say it actually started after grid 1 was released but they had to wait for the technology to catch up.You are being just as disingenuous as you were on the old forum, Loore.When someone has to start arguing about the definition of "several" then you know they are in trouble.

Guest Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 A few of points for you doubters (I'm one of them also).1) CM asked several gamers to their HQ, said visit happened in November last year, (21st if memory serves me, I was one who was invited but was unable to attend due to work). The purpose of the visit was to re-engage the gaming community, let us tell them what was so wrong with G2 and also what we wanted to see from future games. 2) More importantly was that the visitors were getting the opportunity to test upcoming releases. Those that attended had to accept to a non disclosure agreement.3) For there to be a playable Alpha code, development had to be ongoing for some considerable time prior to the visit.4) Given the above points (especially getting old skool gridders involved), I suspect the intervening months have been about addressing the visitors views, reviews and input regarding the state of gameplay of the Alpha code, giving 5 months between the visit and Grid Autosports announcement.On a personal note, lack of text chat from day 1 (for Me anyway) is a pain but there's always Steam (for PC users anyway) but this is restricted to your friends.Pit stops imo are a waste of time, effort and the resources needed to include them, they weren't in Grid 1, Grid was never a SIM it was a crossover concentrating on the RACING, not the bells and whistles.Don't get me wrong here, pitstops do add a strategy element but aren't a deal breaker regarding any driving game (for me anyway), Same can be said of practice and qualifying, a nice feature to have but, only if you want it or use it.On the whole I'm encouraged but as many others here have said the lack of trust is still inhibiting any desire to pre-order. A Demo or early access WOULD put our fears/hopes to rest one way or the other, It would also likely increase the numer of pre-orders (IF they've indeed got it right this time).In the long run I doubt I'll pre-order until or unless there is a demo or we can get some serious input from those who were at the visit to HQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewaawoowaa Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 One thing that does concern me about Grid Autosport...Grid 2 was clearly aimed at teenage, american "fast and furious" fans. Those, I suspect, were the people online doing all the ramming. They will now be attracted to this Grid Autosport game, thinking it is aimed at them too. I do not want to pay a large sum of money for this game and find that online is full of 12 year old rammers. I suppose the only answer is to watch the forum for the first week or 2 after release and see what the consensus is.The problem with that though is that by the time you buy the game, everyone else is 2 weeks ahead of you and it is very hard to catch up.

Awong124 Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 @LooreI just popped in GRID1 again last night and played for a few hours. One of the big things that bugged me that I don't believe has been discussed yet is that the races in career mode are too short. Most races being only a couple of laps long isn't realistic and really breaks the immersion. In my opinion, races need to be at least 10 laps long to be really engaging. I know that a lot of people don't want really long races, but can't you just have the option like in the F1 games where you can choose the race length? Then everybody will be happy. It isn't that difficult to implement something like that is it? I know it's been said that there aren't going to be pitstops, but tire wear can just be rescaled like in the F1 games.

burgor57 Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Got the news today and pre-ordered after seeing the preview video and from what I read. As a big motorsport racing game fan I loved GRID1 and was so looking forward to GRID2. But man was I disappointed with that game. Never bothered to finish it. Hate it. I want back to basics real track based racing. Realistic scenarios and realistic challenging AI. I HOPE this version brings that to life and is not another disappointment. Can't figure why they are releasing for PS3 and not PS4 however? Anyone at Codemasters got the answer to that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
