Drifting on the Spot

Skyline_man · Post by **Skyline_man** » 07 Sep 2007, 03:06

Wanna see the first drifting footage ? Gamespot's On the Spot weekly show was dedicated this week to EA's games, and for sure NFSPS was shown, and so was the drifting mode, and i bet you'll like the new drifting car.

Watch the video or download it here.

Another Drag race was also shown, you can also check it out here.

Stay tuned...

Well its definetly looking like EA improved on the basic gameplay of almost every mode in nfs prostreet. I mean I like the drifting mode in carbon but the video of prostreet one, looks like its gonna feel alot better.... plus implementation of the clutch mechanic.
As for the Drag racing I'am throughly impressed with everything I seen thus far It only has me wondering is every drag mucle car gonna have to run soft springs and no lowering just to fit there slicks? every shot of muscle cars seams to be raised a little high off the ground for me, I mean I understand weight distribution suspensionwise but I'am little worried in that respect

yeah..the Drifts here are more realistic than Carbon....just moving the rear end of ur car -.-'
and tho we are going to be racing on official tracks...I still think it's going to be a great experience...

In the Drag-video. What was the dude saying in the background?

This Drifting video worries me. I don't see any skid marks. I'm beginning to suspect that they're slowly removing things one at a time before the final release.

well the drifting smoke was cool

and i think for the drifting video at 1.06 the car was seen by the front view

and i think it is a s15 as it is similar as this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Nissan_s15.jpg

and for the drag video i think there are 2 new cars 1 of them is a mustang gt and their other 1 is a GTO (2006) version

i think he is trying to say about the challenge and about who is about to challenge who

It's an S15 and it's a ton of fun to drift.

No skid marks? Well what do you know, just like Gran Turismo! (Never noticed, does Forza Motorsport 2 have skid marks as well?)

Yes forza2 has skid marks..

I loving the car list so far.. It hasnt been update on Wiki though.

Yeah, definitely a S15 Silvia

I'm kinda disappointed though... It's definitely a big improvement from Carbon, but it still looks like your car is on ice... He was just turning and getting sideways without weight transfers or anything

And the smoke looks awesome but it's kinda lame that there's instantly huge clouds of smoke when the tires loose traction... Maybe I'm being too picky.

Anyone seen the EA Studio Showcase video yet?

The video shows 2 new cars, NSX and Infinity G35.

MrStayPuft · Post by **MrStayPuft** » 07 Sep 2007, 10:44

i think this is the link http://uk.gamespot.com/video/939664/617 ... wcase-2007

its a long video im watching it now i will post what time he gets on nfs ps

ok skip to 101 mins and 00 secs for nfs pro street

i just noticed it tells you the cars horsepower of both cars at the beginning of the races

thats a nice little mod

Zero260 · Post by **Zero260** » 07 Sep 2007, 11:01

Aw, I gotta watch all this crap? Oh well, thanks man.

Any idea how far into the video they start talking about NFS:PS?

Edit: Nevermind, Found it. Around 101:20 in...

Edit (again): Phew, the drifting was with assists ON ("pick up and play")... No wonder it looked like the car was on ice. Can't wait to see real techniques used!

ahmad0410 · Post by **ahmad0410** » 07 Sep 2007, 11:04

If im not wrong, its somewhere under 110th minute.. i can't remember exactly when..

there is just one thing that is bothering me about speed chal. ive noticed that if you go off track even without hitting anything it slows you from 300 kmh to 60 kmh in about 10 meters. call me picky but thats not right even if you was to hit the bushes at 300kmh it would NOT slow you down that much
