Ubisoft's "The Crew" next-gen defining new open world game: Estimated 1.5+ hours to drive from Miami - Polidicks

-snip-

So this will be my TDU3...

I wish it could have enough players and handle enough players to make it an insanely huge demolition derby' that would just.... wow

[QUOTE=Toats MaGoats;41023563]Or you can steal a fighter jet and accidentally hit a tree.[/QUOTE] Yeah... accidentally...

Physics look very NFS-like (that is to say, arcade-like.) I hope they have a more realistic mode, but that would interfere with online, unless there are races that are hardcore only or something.

First thing I'm doing after getting that is a road trip down Route 66 in a muscle car. (it's been my dream for as long as I can remember.) Also god [i]damn[/i] this trailer gave me some serious Fast And Furious vibes, it even had NOS and shit. (that's a good thing.)

[QUOTE=spacedooky;41030573]Physics look very NFS-like (that is to say, arcade-like.) I hope they have a more realistic mode, but that would interfere with online, unless there are races that are hardcore only or something.[/QUOTE] I'm fine with arcade physics. The main thing that turned me off NFS:HP was the fact that the steering "automatically" corrected your skids (and AFAIK, you can't turn that off). It feels more like I'm guiding the car than I am actually driving it. If I want arcade driving style, I want Burnout (or I guess the old NFS) drive feel.

Wow, this game looks fucking awesome. I really hope the game is as good as they say, and the customization is actually good.

does it have customization like in nfs: ug or mw?

[QUOTE=Flarey;41035801]does it have customization like in nfs: ug or mw?[/QUOTE] one of the developers said they're looking at NFS Underground 2 for customization

It's safe to assume they'll only be using big cities and popular cities and capitals and such, right? Like, I doubt I'll be able to cruise around in Kickapoo, Illinois right?

I wanna explore my shitty city of Saginaw, Michigan :V

[QUOTE=JeanLuc761;41015940]It's difficult enough to do in real life; driving cross-country is a grueling experience once you run out of interesting things to look at.[/QUOTE] Try driving in Indiana "Oh look, more cows.

[QUOTE=Appolox;41015917]Would you sit 30 hours in front of computer or tv with gamepad and drive 30 hours to some fucking city?[/QUOTE] I wouldn't spend 1.5 hours either tho

[QUOTE=Venezuelan;41040594]I wouldn't spend 1.5 hours either tho[/QUOTE] I totally would with friends though. If free roam generic cop chases are a thing, I would totally pair up with a friend, find some cops and begin a carnage filled road trip. As long as it's not a plain straight road with no cities or anything along the way I am so down for it.

aww son of a bitch, they cut out my whole region. [editline]15th June 2013[/editline] The include Idaho, but not half of Washington? What the fuck Ubisoft.

-snip, as I am confused-

Highly doubt they included the Dakotas though, considering we aren't one big patch of ice. Not at least 8 months of the year :v:.

It'd be neat if they used main roads from Google Maps or something as an overlay... but that's kinda asking a bit much.

....THQ is dead? [editline]16th June 2013[/editline] Broken picture link by the way.

Do we know if it'll have interiors, or at the very least a hood view? I can't stand driving games from the third person

They should've included it, or I-10 if they wanted to do major roadways but put their own artistic spin on it, for some serious speed along a coast
