Developer SimBin and publisher 10TACLE STUDIOS today announced GTR 2, the successor to the award-winning racing simulation. The game will be released in the summer of 2006.
Come summer 2006, GTR 2 will set new standards all over again! The new DirectX9 graphics engine ensures that the race cars and circuits are portrayed in a more detailed and photorealistic way than ever before, and the sensation of speed experienced with the HP-beasts is even more immersive, thanks to the improved driving model.
The dynamic day-night light cycle, weather changes, and impressive damage system once again provides an impressive experience of the exciting FIA GT racing series on your PC at home.

Sounds like when they were hyping up rF..
Maybe we will have rain in rF by then..
edit-
Oh wait, they forgot to mention the system crippling starforce.

And what do you know about it? Go play with your imaginary cars and tracks in rF instead of flaming GTR2. Fanboy

WTH?
It looks like the same engine .
How does that make me a "fanboy" 
Look at the lighting, look at the shadowmaps. Look at the textures. it looks similar to the GMotor 2 gfx .. 
Grow up brat
Go kick your dog or something...

It is the same engine, you should know. Probably greatly improved though and especially if they want to feature a decent damage model. Also, I�m interested to see how they improved on MoTec integration.

Very constructive comments, sounds like trolling to me. Oh and SIMBIN didn�t hype rF, that was ISI.

Yup,it's Gmotor2......what else would it be....
And besides that....most of the SIMBIN crew broke up AFIK.I'm sure Tantra is still doing tracks....but this looks like a Gmotor2 version of the same sim before.
And R-Factor rules!!!....no disc....no SF.....no problems.....just dandy fun for all! |

| I guess as usual they won't improve the multiplayer part significantly. Consequently it will suck as it did for GTR and GTL. Really a pity, as apart from this it's sim racing at the best... |

Well, I'm looking very forward to it. I've been so UN-impressed with Rfactor, the mods, and the tracks so far. Feels like a washed out version of Simbin quality IMHO. Just look at the cockpits for goodness sakes. What, did RFactor go back 5 years in graphic design to get those high quality dashboard's designed for the Howston, Rhez, etc???
Looks like something from the mid 90's. Then we get the PCC mod and it feels watered down too (not knocking PCC here, I think it's the ISI physics engine for RF). Watching the replays in RF I see the cars hovering above the track alot.....
Sorry, but RF doesn't YET hold a torch to Simbin IMHO. I'll give RFactor has better netcode, and better FPS, but other than that it's lacking compared to Simbin. The Simbin car models are SO much better, RF is WAY behind in this area. And, the car models is one reason I think the FPS is lower in GTL. I play both, but I definitely enjoy GTL MUCH much more than RFactor, and it makes me really feel like I am connected to the car I am driving. I have raced real-cars, and Rfactor just doesn't give me the same feedback through the wheel, and the car sounds stink.....I'll stop here
And as far as Starforce, it's not an issue with me. And for those that have issue's, it's 99% of the time a driver that needs to be updated, and all is fixed. It's sad some people think it's "stupid" to try and protect your investment. Consider Starforce kind of like a Patent, tries to keep others from profiting or getting free what you created

Go Grab the PCC mod....(and my physics file) and say that!!
Dude,every mod that comes for RF will make it ANOTHER GAME.....
Being in RF now is like being in on Flight Sim X's Beta......sure..it looks fab,has a few bugs.....not much content(Although that's changed ALOT since just last month)......but when the really GOOD mods come...you'll be thankful you're a part of it all!!
Now you tell me......do I lie?
Be sure to come and complain when the Pits get's their stuff rolling. |
