it's a tie....... again

 

You know if you hit a wall at 100 you are completely done in F4. That was very poor representation of damage for GT5..I highly doubt it's that bad.That looked like car damage not mechanical damage.

 

You see the little car diagram to the right of the video? Each individual part can get damaged realistically from crashes. 

Asthetic damage on the other hand is still underwhelming IMO. It's not bad but it could be much better.

Turn 10 aims to get damage modelled accuratly, but it's limited because you can't deform the chasis of the car, only the panels. So far small scale impacts, it's great, but big ones it's not. Also to be fair, damage in GT5 and Forza 4 is scaled back a bit to make the game funner. Hit a wall head on at 30km/h in real life, and your car probably isn't going to drive the same, but in both games you only get minor damage.

GRID actually has the best damage model, and they try to be a sim. GRID also has the best AI, but they are far too agressive for real world driving. However I just don't feel the quality in CodeMasters games. I hear F1 2010/2011 is different though.

Really? Even not being able to move much at all would be considered minor damage?

Well..... see the thing is for large scale collisions Turn 10 uses both pre-calculated values and real time deformation modeling. Tire deformation, along with break wear, and damage to smaller compnents (like the alignment) is all modeled real time. A big hit to the was used pre-calculated values because as you see your car does not deform. Ontop of that, but Turn 10 and PD scale back those values because well any impact at high speed will ruin your race entirely. Both games sacrifice some realism to make the game playable, but I hope future games offer true simulation damage (including chasis deformation). However most manufacterers will probably not agree to this any time soon.

Fifth Gear (rival of Top Gear) did a test of a Ford Focus hitting a wall at 120MPH. It's pretty deadly, it will be a while before we see any sim model deformations like that. This is the newest season (20 i think) episode 1 or 2.

It annoys me to no end that car manufacterers are holding back features like that.

 

And I knew that both game scale back drastically what happens in a car crash...probably for the same reason as the bolded up above.

until Forza can do ANY of the above........NON FUCKING COM-PARE-A-BLE!!!!!!! like I said, not even in the same league

you can have your elaborate paint editor, 50 Ferrari's, and Jeremy who gives a fuck Clarkson. That shit don't mean a thing in my fucking RACING SIMULATOR

the above how ever does, now keep lying to yourself saying that it doesn't

So weather, and rally racing (even though were camparing on track capabilities) make GT5 better? I included it in the poll, it's still a tie. Geez man, your so arrogent, can't you accept other people think Forza 4 is a better game (with reason)?

Also Forza 4 can't do any of that, but Forza 4 will always be more appreciated by real car fans because not only does it not have 630 Japanese cars, it has this guy.

Oh yea..

And we can look at cars like this

Because you know, it's not a sim without a good number of high res premium cars. 12 Ferrarri's is laughable, PGR games have more then that.

Also without this

I don't know how you can call a game where you bounce off other cars to aid your turns realistic...

:P

Rain is nothing compared to a real damage model, and the most important things are the cars, and Forza 4 has a lot more cars that aren't ricers.

I guess if you really really like FF Ricer Civics, GT5 is a better sim. I don't argue it models FF car behaviour better, but I only car about MR cars, and Forza is just king with that.



What is with all the hate? Don't read GamrReview Articles. Contact me to ADD games to the Database
Vote for the March Most Wanted / February Results

I like Motorstorm and Crash Team Racing better

I found a video showing how to change the suspension settings can do in GT5... AMAZING.

Haha I actually did that myself, its fun as hell and really shows how much the tuning matters in GT5.

^^ being mature as usual I see.

Most of his last post is kind of pointless (like your videos post was) but his top little paragraph hits home.

I can tell you why people are acting so immature about these racing games. They are rated E for everyone instead of M for mature. You shouldn't expect too much from the kids arguing in this thread.

Your right my expectations have been way too high.

lol my vids were pointless huh, only because I was right and you can argue with them at all, typical

and no making an arbitrary point list is meaningless, listing to Jeremy Clarkson and looking at 25 cars are in no way comparable to racing in varying weather conditions and different track surfaces

and for the record I do accept that other people think Forza 4 is better for thier reasons..........but that isn't going to stop me from laughing at those reasons because seriously, they're too damn hilarious

Me: GT5 lets me race is different weather conditions, and track surfaces

Forza fans: well.......we get to listen to Clarkson narrate Forza 4, and get to paint our cars ha better sim confirmedz

how can you expect me NOT to laugh at that, seriously

believe me if it was the other way around, you'd be laughing to

Michael, could you explain the difference between a "penalty system" and an "active simulation damage model"?

Also, I'm pretty sure GT5's track variants far outweigh Forza 4's as I've mentioned before.

Track varients are the number of track types. Forza 4 has over 100, GT5 has something like 70-80. Wikipedia it.


It doesn't work like that. The track editor enables GT5 to have almost limitless track variants. 

I'm talking real world track varients...geez. I gave GT5 a point for track editor already.

Well that's stretching it...

GT5 gets a point for weather

Forza gets a point for paint editor

seem's legit lol

No I wouldn't be because I see the worth in both GT5 and F4 since i'm not that overly biased. All of those features are very welcome (and awesome) 

 

I can't wait to find GT5 for cheap on Black Friday because then unlike you I will get to experience the best of both worlds
