Re: SHIFT long term support

Yeah, mirror option, decal colours, a larger limit on vinyl and decal size, more vinyls, and less insane AI will help. They will spear into you and not slow for the corner at times.

Oh, and more car slots would be good... stuff playing it to level 50 again -.-

Re: Drift Pain

Yeah... it's possible to win the events on keyboard, but it's completely and utterly retarded. Basically... line up to hit a clipping point at speed, as you approach , full throttle, then full opposite lock and your car should slide at a massive angle until it slows. Then aim for the next point and ...

Re: Manufacturer Vinyls

Juiced 2 also had a lot of glitches with the tuning, not many basic shapes so you could only use the themed stuff they gave you in particular colours, and you'd get much better layouts from prostreet. I gave up with the juiced system because there were too many glitches, panel gaps and you couldn't ...

Haha... they would've been much better off with anime-like graphics than low res textures... seriously.

^that's on PS2

And the Reventon and R8 look horrid. I've seen better games made independently. And what platform's this for?

Re: What system settings are you running shift?

Ok, that's pretty playable. I'd imagine this game is much more intensive than undercover or prostreet. I think a friend's old 8600MGT laptop did medium in Prosteet.

Re: What system settings are you running shift?

20FPS in game isn't much... it might have heat issues, but my 5600 artifacted when it got hot too. I can't offer that much help though because I'm not sure what the recommended video card is and if there are issues with mobile versions.

Re: Bugs & Glitches in Need for Speed: SHIFT

Wow, that's weird. Considering the drivers are being set up for grid rather than shift, I'm guessing the glitching is due to that. GRID does have quite strong lighting compared to shift.

Re: What system settings are you running shift?

Yeah, basically, try to get your resolution as high as possible... and textures as high as possible. Easy to do with a decent amount of lighting. Shadows and lighting usually give a good performance boost turned down as they can be quite intensive. AA is the last thing you put on as it kills perform...

What's wrong with Vista? =-S It's the fastest, most stable and most user friendly OS I've ever used. Mac OS was by far the worst =-P and Linux was half decent.

I've never had the Nvidia cards BSOD since the 7600GT >_> I'm now on a GTX 260. ATI was definitely the way to go 6 months ago, but then the GTX 260s came way down in price... tuned versions came out and now I paid $50 less vs a HD 4870 for something that runs cooler, quieter, saps less power, has Ph...

Why do you need to boot 5 OSs? I only see a need for XP 32bit and 7 x64 >_> + @Summ: Some people tend to have lower end PCs and just hang on to stuff. It wasn't until I went to a 9600GT that I went full HD. That being said... if you get a 9800 or GTX +, you should invest in a good screen nowdays. AT...

I never really go top end with GFX... I spent more cash on an i7 and just ran a GTX 260 Gold. The only thing it doesn't max is Crysis... and considering it's the part that is most likely to be replaced (and easy to replace with PCI-E)... makes sense to go with the latest tech. SO just go with a good...

In terms of glitches and performance, maybe some of the reviewers had optimum set-ups. This stuff doesn't happen to my ...
