carmatic Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 this is Codemaster's , and by extension the PC's answer to Motorstorm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unimatrix Xero Posted May 21, 2009 Author Share Posted May 21, 2009 yup its done by Codemasters and its kinda like Motorstorm yes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sethos Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 this is Codemaster's , and by extension the PC's answer to Motorstorm? Well, somewhat. Fuel offers a lot more option and varied gameplay, it blows Motorstorm away in terms of freedom, options and content. Can't tell you about the gameplay though.

san.W10 Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Fuel is a racing game currently in development by Asobo Studio, published by Codemasters http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_(video_game) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unimatrix Xero Posted May 21, 2009 Author Share Posted May 21, 2009 Sigh its got the horrible floaty car syndrome that GRID had i think ill pass this one up. have u played the game yet? where did u hear this info? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carmatic Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 (edited) Well, somewhat. Fuel offers a lot more option and varied gameplay, it blows Motorstorm away in terms of freedom, options and content. Can't tell you about the gameplay though. in the new video, when the player's car crashed into the overturned tractor or whatever it is at the 3 minute mark, the way it handled that almost made me forget that it wasnt a Motorstorm sequel we could start picking that video apart now that we've seen it... did anyone notice that at 2:02, the tornado dissapeared? and when the opponents cars went into the tornado, they merely got disabled... you could see at 4:04 that the car in front of you stopped kicking up dust with its wheels, instead it started billowing black smoke... wouldnt it be neat if it got picked up and tossed away?

carmatic Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 mmm... a seaside winding highway littered with car wrecks... does this remind you of anything? monster truck class... notice that the wheels are collision-free... hmm... at the beginning you can see the start sign pop into view in the fog...

Unimatrix Xero Posted May 21, 2009 Author Share Posted May 21, 2009 the monster truck wheel thing has been fixed, your linking an old build there, in fact from viewing all the vids those are old builds, you might want to check the NEW video i posted at the top of the page also why are people bitching so much about the video, if you dont like, dont play it simple as that and move on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sethos Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Will this handle similar to DiRT at all? Probably more like GRiD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Mystic MVC Posted May 21, 2009 MVC Share Posted May 21, 2009 Probably more like GRiD Yea, I saw your post above and unfortunately I never played GRiD so it looks like I'm out of luck. On a side note, why does CodeMasters capitalize their game names except for the i's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrunknMunky Veteran Posted May 21, 2009 Veteran Share Posted May 21, 2009 Can't wait for it :) Should keep me happy until DiRT 2 is out at least. Although its bike season right now for me, SBK ftw ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carmatic Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 also why are people bitching so much about the video, if you dont like, dont play it simple as that and move on aah hahahahah ... watching a video to realize you dont like it, THEN get told to not watch it in the first place that is so easy for you to say , isnt it how are people supposed to know there are even different builds of the game?

+Mystic MVC Posted May 21, 2009 MVC Share Posted May 21, 2009 Can't wait for it :) Should keep me happy until DiRT 2 is out at least. Basically sums up my feelings now that you informed me about this game. I really hold DiRT2 holds up well. I don't play a whole lot of racing games all the way through so DiRT was a great anomaly for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
