Now this is Next-Gen Racing game graphics! WOW (56k)

[QUOTE="GameboyTroy"][QUOTE="Ben-Buja"]

These two are not my screenshots, the previous ones I posted are. The inconsistencies come from different people with different settings taking screenshots. My screens are 2560x1440 with 8 MSAA, and 8x Sparse Grid Supersampling to get rid of most jaggies.

Here's are video I uploaded with the exact same settings: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nmpRDnbkPYw

The option for 1440P res disappeared for some reason.

Youtube supports up to 4K resolutions. It shows the quality as "Original" then.

gt5 photomode puts this to shame.campzor

GT5 photomode shouldn't even brought into the equation. It takes the PS3 up to a minute to render a single frame at 2x magnification. What do you think this game could look like, rendering one frame for a minute at ultra high res?

The photomodes create bullshots and these are real time. It's not even comparable

Let me ask you a quesiton, do you actually play the GT5 photomode in real time? Like, do you race in the resolution and visual fidelity of the photomode?

No, you don't. It's irrelevant.

My PC could render Avatar like movies if I gave it enough time. It's not relevant for real time rendering and gaming.

You technically could play GT5 in its photo mode settings in real-time.

0.016 frames per second. Just put some motion blur between the frames and you wouldn't notice.

Yeah I just played it for the first time literally 20 mins ago and I SUCK at it. But the cars handle like they would in real life, there is no room for error and you will be punished for being a bad driver. F1 cars spin uncontrollably like they would in real life.

Of course Richard Hammond doesn't even know how to drive a jetcar rightside up.

When I was driving the F1 cars in the game all I could think of was the Top Gear guys and how they kept spinning out when they drove the F1 cars :P

Does this game only include the Pagani Huayra? :P

I seriously hope this is mod-able

Erm, is it just me or are those shots in the OP not impressive at all? They look really quite average, GT5 already looks better than that.

This even beats GT5 bullshot photomode and it's ingame. Photomode in GT5 was no wear near how GT5 looked while in game. The car models were higher quality in photomode and so where a lot of other settings like reflections and textures. RyviusARC

Okay now that is pretty darn impressive! Should have posted this first.

console gamers don't care. They don't care if it's real time or not. As long as they can use the pics as ammo they will see it as a good reason.

Played some project cars last night with modified TOD settings where it goes from day to night in about 3 minutes and it is without doubt the most impress implementation of real time lighting I have ever seen in a game. The transitions were stunning. The lens flare sucks though :P

oh and DEM REAL TIME REFLECTIONS :o

GamingGod999

Nah there are a good few cars and tracks already in it. there are F1 cars too and normal cars like you would see in Nascar. There is also some go Karts :P

It doesn't even look better than Dirt 3.:lol:

If those are next gen graphics i want my money back, for real those don't look like anything special infact those pics don't look any better then GT5 photomode pics.

zarshack

Looks like Forza. 720 will demolish those graphics next yearreach3

Fool

I do like how they include even some very old models. The attention to detail on some of the models is very well done. But a lot of them can be a **** to drive.RyviusARC

What a strange race lol '49 Team Lotus vs. Kart vs Gumpert Apollo on a kart track

They are average though, see my second post. The later images are far more impressive.

I'm bringing this thread back.

Some of those textures are ass. Hardly perfect.

gt5 is horrendously inconsistent in every aspect of technical graphics champ, you'd have to be blind or have poor eyesight not to see it.Le Mans its very apparent aswell as in Grand valley

Photo mode sure is cool but in motion that game aint a looker.

I am still not impressed with this game although I do like the developers other games.

I think the main problem with trying to say "OMGS THIS IS NEXT GEN!!!!" is that this game; based on those screen shots looks like a cleaner, sharper version of forza and GT. I am not saying this is a bad looking game but how much better can you make carbon fibre, black paint, chrome rims before you just go "well I have seen that before". Looking at the screen shots they seem to have only black paint (not exciting to look at) and the scenery just seems empty. Racing games I think need to focus more on the environments now. I saw a screen shot of forza horizon I think, and the cliff was probably 64polys, you could see plainly that it was just flat and nothing to it.

I think to main the next staggeringly beautiful game you need something like Motorstorm, which while in places it was ugly (specially the ground texture) but when you are racing for a bit and the dust kicks up and the muddy ditches start to show I thought it was one of the best looking racing games I have seen.

To be honest I am supprised racing games do spend as much time and resources on the cars as they do because honestly they are starting to get only minor improvements.

I got the fact by trying myself. Pick 16:9 and 2x magnification in photomode, press shoot. The loading screen will be there for 30-60 seconds, thats how long it takes the PS3 to render a single frame at that quality.

And yeah GT5 is the console racing graphics king I didn't deny that, I'm just saying that Project C.A.R.S. on PC looks miles better already.

[QUOTE="GameboyTroy"][QUOTE="Pro_wrestler"] What about the last pic I posted?lowe0

A lot the brands are placeholders at this point until they secure the license. Thats what happened with the Classic Team Lotus F1 cars, they all had fake brands but then SMS got the license and updated the textures.

Those aren't in-game shots, rather in-engine shots. In replay mode there will always be cinematic filters added to the game or some other post-processing effects. Every racing game in existence does this. That said, it looks great. Forza still beats it in environments, though.Pro_wrestler

No, those are ingame shots, this game doesn't even have a photomode yet. You can just go into freecam mode and take screenshots.

Forza beating this game in environments? We shall see when it's actually done. None of the tracks are finished yet. A lot of trackside details are missing or placeholder.

Anyway here are some new screens :D

I think it's also worth noting that this along with most other PC sims you can race with a much larger field of cars. Just think of those graphics with 35+ cars heading up to Eau Rouge!

Here's more screens for Project CARS.

This is what I like realistic clean graphics without crazy filters and effects found in Grid and Dirt..raskullibur

Not impressed.

[QUOTE="Nuck81"] At what point as it ever taken my PS3 an entire minute to render a photo I have taken in Photo mode? Answer: Never. I don't know where you got this statistic of a minute, but it is completely false. I am a huge SMS fan. Shift 2 is my favorite PS3 racer, yes I prefer it to GT5, and I even bought TD: Ferrarri challenge because it was developed by SMS. I am very much looking forward to CARS. But as of now. GT5 is the console Racing Graphics King. Here is GT5 Direct Feed gameplay. AlsoNuck81

Nuck81

Are you sure you used 2x magnification? Do you have your PS3 set to 720P or 1080P? I'm not exaggerating anything. 60 seconds is exactly how long it takes my PS3 from pressing X til it asks me if i want to save it, that is in the photo travel mode. In an actual race it takes even longer. Either my PS3 is starting to crap out or you didn't use the same settings.

Either way the photomode pictures shouldn't be brought into the graphics debate.

Here's how the clouds look like in this game.
