GRID: Autosport

Handling looks a bit.... pivoty

Yeah the handling looks a bit drifty.

I have to say the game is looking interesting but I feel even though there are positives about it there may be some negatives.

lol lastest blog I read multiplayer sounds v broken win win to them

How to you mean multiplayer is broken Dunc? From what I saw the other week it looks really solid, and their blogs have some really cool stuff about player and car progression

Not the dev blogs, some mags have advance copies and they are saying multiplayer needs looking at look

Yeah probably does at this stage. If only we could get some early copies and give feedback ourselves.... ahem ahem   

I am cautiously optimistic at this point. And that is saying a lot as my motto in life is "Expect the worst and anything less is a pleasant surprise".

I'm looking forward to it, it's quite arcady but it looks fun especially in single player. Reminds me of Race Driver and the first GRID.

Something that really bugs me though is the Endurance races. They're exactly like Forza because as soon as the timer runs out the race stops which annoys me.

Do you think they realise there's a further back cockpit view?

The full track list will contain 15 circuits, 7 cities and over 100 routes.

While it's still arcadey, it's nice to see that apexes actually matter in this.

Mont Tremblant!

And is that Okutama the same one from Grid 1?

This gives a good impression of how the game will drive. Unrealistic, yes, but close battles will be possible, and natural mistakes can be made. Very much how the ToCA games drove.

"Great day @Codemasters helping tuning tracks & cars," Neal tweeted earlier today, "watch out for their two new driving games when out as they're awesome! #LovelyPeople".

Just read this first post and thought to myself. What's the second game?

F1 2014 or DiRT 4 I bet

ah of course! Probably F1 2014.

Bit bummed that there are only two Ovals, one of them fictional, but the circuit list is pretty good!

No Le Mans also

Yeah no Le Mans or the Nurgenbyburgen, as I was told at Codies, but what they lack in those two they make up for in other great rarely seen tracks, like Forza 5.

I wouldn't be surprised if either of them came as DLC. If I remember right, Bathurst and Spa were DLC for GRID 2.

Codemasters announced the full car list today: CLICK ME

V8 Supercars, V8 Utes, A1GP, Formula Three, IndyCar, BTCC, Classic BTCC, Minis; I quite like the sound of this!

Utes at Bathurst would be awesome.

For anyone not familiar with Lola designations: The B12/80 is the Rebellion LMP1 car, and the B05/52 is the original A1GP chassis, which now exists in modified form in Auto GP. I believe the CatA Touring Cars will be Brazilian Stock Cars!!

Highlights for me:
- UTES!!
- V8S!!
- GODZILLA!! (PLUS BATHURST!!)
- HONDA HSV ASUPAAA AGT!!
- INDYCAR!!

Even if the cars are a bit "drifty" I think this will be quite an enjoyable game to play. Looking forward to it.

It does look pretty good shame my 360 is dead.
