It's really strange that the PS3 version have different lightning effect, i mean the street light on the X360 version looks like somekind of electricity, but the PS3 version have old light trial effect. I'm wondering which one the PC version will get ?

I don't mind if the demo won't come out, afterall most of us want the demo just to see if the game runs ok on the system.

About that guy that said something about the MW demo and the Carbon demo, not being the same size, that`s probably because Carbon demo has 3 different car classes and races...it's normally bigger in size than MW.

EDIT: thnx 2furio for the vids

The official site HAS been updated:
http://www.ea.com/nfs/carbon/us/home.jsp

There are new videos, pictures, areas. There's something new in every area...(except car list).

wow now there are interactive on the site

2furio · Post by **2furio** » 21 Oct 2006, 01:12

Woot, there is the normal Murcielago and the LP640.

Also, according to EA, the Corvette is a muscle and the Viper is an exotic. The 2007 Shelby GT500 is also confirmed...

*cries*

LP640. \o\ \o/ /o/

Wonder if they got anymore surprises for us.

Just checked - Only the Ford GT is an american exotic

And there are 46 cars, 3 of which are police and the M3 GTR(also exotic) so we have 42 career cars so far...

The '07 Shelby was confirmed when that one website released in-game shots of cars. Now it's been officially confirmed (yay!).

Compared to what is already 90% suspected about the carlist, the list on EA's site is missing about 10 cars (namely the Plymouth Road Runner, Pagani Zonda, Pontiac GTO, and Lotus Europa S). Those cars have been seen in unofficial screenshots, but haven't been officially announced. This close to release date, any new information will most likely make it into the game.

Just noticed this in the corner:

PC Webstore - New Feature Launches Nov. 14, 2006
Coming soon to the NFS Carbon PC Webstore, premium unlocks. Get ahead of the packwith cars, upgrades and the Collector's Edition.

Does EA actually except for me to shell out more money for stupid downloads. Atari offers free downloads for TDU.

darknight788 · Post by **darknight788** » 21 Oct 2006, 02:21

what ?

now they expect us to pay for their donwloads

nope not doing sorry EA, jeez whats next paying for patches, demos

krazyammo · Post by **krazyammo** » 21 Oct 2006, 02:24

If that happens that would really suck

prince1142003 · Post by **prince1142003** » 21 Oct 2006, 02:25

If I know the community, the EA downloads will be available somewhere other than the EA site a few days after official release.

Did anyone notice that on the official site the Mitsubishi Eclipse (old model) is a GSX and not a GS-T.
Could be a mistake or it really is a GSX, would be alot more logical cause the eclipse in U1 and U2 was a GSX also.

prince1142003 · Post by **prince1142003** » 21 Oct 2006, 03:11

Could be a mistake... But if I remember correctly, EA never officially announced what version of the '99 Eclipse it was. IGN was the first site to post the info and other sites followed suit.

I trust EA more... they made the game..

Emmanuelle tells us how much fun it was to work with EA:

(of course, after been given a large amount of cash...maybe that's what's in the red bag)

omg... i cant believe how ugly the site looks now....and the music section, cool, but the songs.....omg...UGLY...some songs are cool like 2 or 3, but the rest...CRAP...

Porsche-AG · Post by **Porsche-AG** » 21 Oct 2006, 05:21

Agreed... The only decent ones are the ones by Dynamite MC and the one with Pharell in it.

xturbo · Post by **xturbo** » 21 Oct 2006, 05:26

Also interesting what Jussi wrote on EA forums:

"I'll be checking that address for updated site and hopefully the PC demo too...

Jussi"

WTF with this guys?
they seems to be politicians like EA rep...omg...

"NFS is going down, in spiral to the ground...no one..no one is going to save it, not even god..."

But what u want if this is true?? Managing bad business, delays, blablabla, was this present on the old nfs's???

No man, since LaPierre is in the big chair, nfs is going down man....

AND its obvious that i cant do nothing, because every single user who send a email, is rejected, u think EA is going to listen us to say: hey i dont like this, change it for this and this....noo..keep dreaming, it's their policy, they do whatever they want...unfortunately.....for the nfs players like us
