IF IT AIN'T ON RAILS, I'M BUYING IT!!! I hope they have DLC for new cars, cause I don't see Camaro anywhere.
Gonna miss the cops and forcing targets off the road. The racing here should be intense though with multiple cars. Hope they bring head to head multiplayer in this game. Wow, and the broken windshield is crazy.
There is a tachometer up in the top right, with the speedo. I'm thinking that maybe the icon in the bottom right is a Nos button? It looks like it has a little drawing of a turbo charger (in white) on it though? Anyone know if there will be customisation? It is more of a racing sim, but then again it wouldn't be NFS without customisation.
For the record I hate these "in car" views, they hurt more than help. It looks like you're driving from the backseat with the frontseat ripped out, gripping the steering wheel with long arms, with the roof interior, steering wheel and dashboard obscuring most of your view. In real life what you see is just the road, the steering is barely in your peripheral vision. The "front bumper" view that Burnout uses for instance, is actually more accurate. I was hoping they had that.
Would it be possible to shift gears unless the controls were auto accelerate? Also, why was NFSU "on rails?" I thought you could control the car.
It would be possible, but it could be quite messy. You would have a button to accelerate on the right, a button to brake on the right, then a shift button on the left and maybe also a Nos button on the left also, and use the accelerometer to steer. NFSU wasn't actually 'on rails', but it felt like you weren't in 100% control of the steering on corners.
