Racing game of the year just dropped. What are your thoughts, fellow Tokyo racists?
>>721665832Very, very, VERY mid.I was a fan of TXR, particularly the PSP game and the drifting game, and this new one might be one of the worst racing games I have ever made.Think about it from a logical, functional perspective. What is the point of doing a TXR game in the year of our lord 2025? Doing a true new entry in the series that is truly a TXR game while benefiting from some modern things that can objectively improve the experience, like the camera not being static anymore, more customization, maybe better sounds.Alright, the new TXR, does neither of those things. Gameplay and presentation wise its worse than all the other entries while running like total dogshit cause UE5 (cause why not use the barely functionable dogshit performance engine and its constant ray tracing lighting for the fucking CARTOON GRAPHICS CAR GAME), and also it has no improvements a modern TXR game could have had, such as a dynamic mic, better customization, better sounds, NOTHING.Its quite honestly the worst racing game in the last 10 years at least.
>>721665832One of the best racing games in recent times for sure.I'm a fan since the Dreamcast days, the entire formula is there but with a lot of improvements and large roster of opponents.One good thing about it is how much more dynamic the rivals are, they really tweaked their behavior since EA and honestly there aren't any racing games with racers like that.Customization and how much you can influence the car's handling is on par with AAAA games like Gran Turismo.Performance on my old trusty 1080ti is great, the game has amazing optimization and is only 9.7GB in size, which is an extreme rarity for any UE5 game.The only real complaint I would have is that they didn't add the new highway line that was built kind of around where they started the development of the game, but hopefully they will expand the map or add new cities like in TxR3 in another sequel or whatever.
>ingame fanclubs for racers
>>721667612>One good thing about it is how much more dynamic the rivals are, they really tweaked their behavior since EA and honestly there aren't any racing games with racers like that.It's going in a straight line anon, and if ur slower than the other car u win, if ur not as fast you automatically lose. >>721667612>Performance on my old trusty 1080ti is great, the game has amazing optimizationthe game cannot run at 60fps on a 3070 tho, idk where you pulled that from>>721667612>Customization and how much you can influence the car's handling is on par with AAAA games like Gran Turismo.Ah yes. There's no proper full body customization, no proper custom liveries, and you can't do anything about the car's sound, but please go off.
>>721665832>locked camera>car doesn't work like an actual car and is just a floating box that slides around>you just drive in a straight line the entire game>worse sounds than the ps2 txr gamesAlso its funny how this game lacks any sort of car movement visuals entirely, the car doesn't sway at all regardless of what you do, its completely static, but the ps2 game did have this.
I think it's past time we need to acknowledge that "haha racist haha" is extremely reddit
>>721667865>It's going in a straight line anon, and if ur slower than the other car u win, if ur not as fast you automatically lose.Except when you're on the C1 loop, which most rivals are in, and when each rival has different behavior so it's not like in all racing games where they just drive in a straight line and never go off course or try to slam into you purposely.Besides, the game is about highway racing, so not sure what did you expect? Did you also complain there is too much dirt tracks in rally games?>the game cannot run at 60fps on a 3070 tho, idk where you pulled that fromI pulled this from my own computer, just because you are tech illiterate and you're trying to run the game at 8k with a shitty gimped GPU that has measly 8GB of VRAM then no shit, maybe don't fall for marketing hype next time.I'm running the game at average 90 fps at 1440p.>There's no proper full body customizationThere is, and it influences your car's performance and handling.>no proper custom liveriesYup, there are just regular liveries you can stick on currently.>and you can't do anything about the car's soundYou can, change the engine or change the car.
>>721667865>the game cannot run at 60fps on a 3070 thoI'm running 100FPS 3440x1440 no upscaling on a 6800/5800X3D system with everything but lumen on medium-high, what POS prebuilt do you have that's bottlenecking a 3070 that badly?
I like EK9
TXR is a dogshit street racing game and it always has been. Its good for what it is as a highway racer niche but if you're not like, completely obsessed with japanese highway racing, 10 minutes into this ur gonna wonder why you're not just playing modded nfs heat again.
>>721667865it runs like shit yeah, but im on linux so maybe it's linux thing. it has lumen running, turn global illumination off. it helps
>>721668567not him, but the game only uses 6GB VRAM at 1440p with everything on Ultra
I think I fucked up my R34's gearing, I'm hitting speed cap and I don't know how to fix this
>>721670641Just reset to default and try again
>>721668462No, I'm actual racist.
>>721667865>the game cannot run at 60fps on a 3070 tho, idk where you pulled that fromAt what resolution? I run it at 1080p with a 2080 TI which is about the same as a 3070.
Can anyone confirm if NG+ resets the win/loss statistics?
they still haven't fixed black unlit tunnels when running global illumination on medium, blehcan't stand the grainy raytracing and the performance impact is crazy on high/ultra
>>721667807I think there's a team of toy model builders that are blatant fans of some racers
I love TXR and the early betas I've played a little bit and really enjoyed it.I try ver 1.0 today and see no hard mode, wtf? I was waiting for this too. Is it in the game or not? All I'm seeing is a perk difficulty.
if i remember correctly some graphics setting turn on the UE5 render systems at a certain point above medium.
What wheels should I get to play racists games? Something not too expensive if possible
>>721674219The true hard mode was the friends we made all alongIt does have a difficulty selection but the harder mode is just a rebalanced version of what it had in EA (somewhere along the line they made some perks unlock later but you would still have them if you'd already bought them apparently) It's also a little bit harder mechanically in general because of AI changes and hitting walls being a lot more costly but you also get more CP and BP and there's cars like the Civic Type R available so eh.
>>721668462it's funny thoughbeit because it makes normies uncomfortablethere was a whole shitfling in the main txr discord over people saying "tokyo xtreme racists"
>>721675087What a fucking surprise... those niggers need to be slapped up for being such oversensitive faggots.
>>721668462Life is a raceAnd you're the racistTime to hit the pedal to the metal, champ
>>721666195ok retard
>>721675246Look man I just don't want wholesome chungi to reclaim hardcore racism
>>721674694I see, but I saw something about oil temp and stuff and I found it, it's called "additional rules"I guess that's the hard mode then.
>>721675707That makes it so tire wear is always on (which I didn't even know it wasn't lmao) and you have to drive slow everywhere between races so your fucking water temp will go down.
>>721665832Not interesting enough for me to buy it, not for $50 and not when it was $30. Maybe for $5 but even then I'd rather just play Assetto.
>>721675841>drive slow everywhereslow still being about 90-120 mph. the point is keeping the rpm within the optimal powerband. if you rev the engine too high, heat builds up. turbo cars get it worse than normally aspirated cars.you also want to adjust the final drive ratio so that your car is not approaching redline all the time or else it overheats faster. it's actually a big difference from how the game is normally played where you would normally just set the final drive barely low enough to use the entire tachometer. now it's a balance between acceleration and thermal efficiency.
>>721677290why even leave this useless faggot commentit's a single player game just pirate it you pussy
>>721677439>just pirate it you pussySpending huge amounts of money on custom cars, tracks and mods is the main attraction of Assetto Corsa.
>>721665832It's fun. There are a few niggly bits though, it's a bit disappointing that they didn't expand the number of starting cars, like really all the tier 1 cars should just be available as your first car. And also it's a bit disappointing that none of the early game rivals were given new cars, I haven't raced against a single honda yet for example (other than traffic cars).
>>721665832It's good but I'm a little miffed they didn't change Cupid Arrows back to driving Hondas or Blood Hound to a sedan
>>721677361I mean it's still annoying when it takes me 1 1/2 laps of the C1 to beat a Wanderer just waiting for the fucking engine to cool down because you can't blast him into the dirt and short shift to 5th in 20 seconds like the other shitters.Sure stock cooling systems are marginal but it would be high revs at low speed that would cause overheating problems, not high speed where you have airflow or else nobody in parts of America where they drive 100mph on the highway in super hot weather would survive.
>>721675707the game's moddable, there's already a difficulty mod called xtra hard mode which seriously buffs every single rival in the game, however it's not updated for full release yet
>>721679696yeah it's not the best thermal simulation, in theory the faster you go the better the cooling should be. upgrading the intake section on the engine is supposed to improve thermals but it really should be its own item.i just put the car in autodrive for a little bit, cools down super fast and then back at it. there's a good bit of headroom where you can let water temps overheat a bit before oil starts to heat up. n/a cars have a big advantage in this mode.
>>721679521Well the reason all the kei cars aren't available as first cars is because they are too fucking slow for the introduction races, anyways, and I guess you could afford them immediately after if you take the AE86
>>721675087If I remember correctly some tranny on Discord also made a hissy fit to censor "White Revolution" rival name.
>>721680147They need to make it so that front bumpers and hoods actually help with cooling as well.
>>721680256yesthe disc is pure canceri am only there for comedic reasons
>>721678621>Spending huge amounts of money on custom cars, tracks and mods is the main attraction of Assetto Corsa.what? you ok, chatgpt?assetto corsa is a racing simulator mod sandbox, you don't spend any money unless you are an actual retard and buy forza/gt rips from patreon grifters with irl money.
>>721665832I already played the same exact game 3 times. The series literally never evolved
>>721681157and that's a good thing! have you seen what modern games are like
>>721680256The most annoying part is you know it's a fucking casual who doesn't play the games in the first place because that driver's been in the series since the first Dreamcast game.
>>721681360I'm not asking for a LE MODERNIZED TXR, I'm asking for the series to hit the same highs as the first fucking game......
>>721681476lmao what fucking highs are you missing exactly from the first game, shit was jank as fuck back then
>>721666195You didnt make the game
>>721681668It was a Dreamcast game back then....
what's a car drive race vroom game you can play with kebyard/mouse?
>>721681837still didn't answer the questiontxr25 has much better moment to moment gameplay and way more exhilarating endgame battles, and the story's not bad either
Will this game have other, non-japanese cars like previous games? I want my Viper.
One of the most boring racing games I have the displeasure of playing.
well I'm having a blast. Compared to the first few betas and with the temperature stuff the game is no longer a joke (tho it's still easy, hard mode when) so the races are a lot more interesting now.also runs fucking butter smooth for me, 4K120 with hdr, it's great
Man, sometimes weebs go too far. Yeah, Japan is cool, etc. but to praise such mediocre game like this just because of its Japanese setting is going too far. Seriously, Initial D: Street Stage for the PSP is 10x better than this.
Shame they didn't bring back some of the extended areas from ITC, that and different times of day or weather
>>721682853initial D has never had good games
>>721682853yeah initial D is great, but I like this too.I don't see what's mediocre about this game at all, it's fun, the driving is nice, Gran Turismo can only dream about having even half as exciting races, the customization is fantastic, there's even a cringe kino story and people to talk to.only thing I can admit is that it's definitely a "vibe" that not everyone will "get". Watching and reading wangan midnight will definitely help, though.I couldn't care less that it's set in japan actually
>>721674219I recommend doing a DEF build if you're looking for more difficultyATK has some seriously busted perks, with DEF you at least won't have battles end in an instant
>>721683128Initial D games have depth to them. Not like a shitter like you would know.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e12HbniCwoo
>>721683494Do you get bonus money for battle length in this?
>>721683665yeah that's some peak arcadeslop my brothercompletely bizarro handling model, literally fuckall to do with actual touge racing, even wangan maximum tune looks more coherent than whatever you just posted
>>721681916the collin mcrae rally/dirt games are pretty good on keyboard
>>721665832I played for a bit a couple months ago. The game is fine but either I'm doing something wrong or clearly it's not made for me.I got tired and bored of trying to find opponents from specific teams to advance the story. It became a very mechanical process: check the map for an opponent > TP to the nearest exit > race him and win > back to the garage > do it all over again.
Top tier. Hopefully once it is released on PS5 they'll have the revenue to begin work on additional txr entries. A modern txr drift would be good.
>>721684195Rival hunting is a feature for Japanese autists who memorise all the rival locations and drive around the map for 1 hour trying to find one. Otherwise yeah you can just take the easy way out and go back to garage.
oh no
>>721684195Kind of both.Normally there are enough rivals in close spaces that you would need to do 2 laps around the entire map in both lanes to beat them all.Some are also in PAs. TPing all over the place will just reshuffle their spawn so it's kind of counterproductive.Doing a single run gives you better bonuses, and that equals more money for cars and more fucking around with them.But end of each chapter pretty much does force you to go back and TP for convenience.

>>7216850001.5 way because still want it to slightly engage off throttle for sharper turn in.Physics for this kind of stuff in game is pretty rudimentary though so it doesn't matter.
>>721684614>>721684860Yeah, it seems to be kind of an autistic game lol. I'll give it another try now that the 1.0 version is out.It also didn't help that I beat the 1st stage easily with my starting car, there was a point I didn't have any new stuff to add to it and buying a new car wasn't cheap enough to be worth it (also you need to do the unlock tree shit for the cars)Have a pic of the little Trueno that could and carried me through the whole 1st stage and half of the 2nd without much effort.
>CARTOON GRAPHICS CAR GAMEare we talking about the same series?
>>721673271>>721667807That was a real thing with the Mid Night team, and the plasmo people back in the 90's. Pre easy digital photography so you only had glimpses of these ghosts running at 300 kmh on the wangan, and carving the C1 loop.

>>721686861>defying gender stereotypesit’s a carAnyone can drive a carIt’s just men are usually more autistically attached to cars
>>721665832>What are your thoughtsOne of the few games that are a direct throwback to early-2000's era of Japan street racing. For some reason, they are blind to modern Western racing games like Forza or Need for Speed- they don't account for what players are expecting today; for that they may get left behind.>fellow Tokyo racists?as a big weeb, I enjoy the movie-feel of this game. The traditional Japan game tuning is present. It is however, lacking in every respect compared to their old Playstation 2 titles. TXR: Drift is one of the most interesting "tuning" racing game there is and modifying your car directly affects gameplay. This doesn't have that much depth and it is a shame.
>>721669065>>721684997>yikes>he doesn't know the oldschool freeway racershttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ELJW-Bsrnmk
>>721665832>vtubersSOULLESS
The Civic just sucks so much ass, literally every single loss I've gotten is from it's inability to turn corners. Time for punished Silvia to take revenge.
>>721665832I really like the aesthetic of TXR as a franchise but the games never interested me that much, personally, it felt a bit repetitive, kind of like a "grinding simulator" where you simply drive forwards on a japanese highwayI never played these games for a long time, so feel free to correct me
>>721687031you can actually ignore the misson to rescue the tranny and her npc gets replaced with a muslim girl who is so trad she's exempt from the game's betting systemunbound is a legitimately great game wrapped in a rancid corpo-dei sloppa wrapper
>>721692539which civic were you using? the EK9?
What the hell is the starting wallet limit now
>>721687716what has this game series done of interest in the last 15 years? I’m honestly asking, graphics don’t count that’s a given for anything released past 2008 having no excuse for their game looking shitty
sell me on this? how come its overwhelminglyy positive? it looks like shit in trailers
>>721692793Yeah the first one you unlock.
>>721693192there's nothing wrong with iti've won dozens of races with it with only lvl1 upgrades and a lvl2 engine upgrade
>>721693070>how come its overwhelminglyy positive?one of the popular, obscure, otaku car tuning games of the past. It's getting wild reviews because it seems just like a quick remake. There are no DLC or microtransactions or online multiplayer as of yet
>>721665832>single playerkind of lame, i wanted a 1v1 initial d style battle racer like at the arcades.
>>721687716Oh yay let's see them turn all the mountain roads into 6 lane wide highways
>>721693434it's not that it can't win, it's that it can't turn. also it overheats in just one and a half races with extended rules on as well.
What is the difference between R35 '14, R35 '17, and R35 '24?
>>721695913Styling mostly, the 2014 has 20hp less and some other tiny things.
>>721696093I see
>>721695639it's front-wheel drive. that means the driven wheels have three jobs to do: turning, accelerating and braking, meaning that it has to perform all 3 of those functions which is naturally a tug of war of grip. compare that to a rear-wheel drive car's driven wheels which only have two jobs: to accelerate and brakethat tug of war of grip in the front wheels is what causes understeer and you have to learn how to drive a front-wheel drive car as it inherently handles differently to cars with other drive types
>>721696920and as for the overheating, i'm experiencing that too; you just have to pick where you race, who you race and in free roam leave the car on autopilot for a few minutes before jumping back into the racing
>>721675087>thoughbeitDon't you have threads on /o/ to be shitting up?
>>721696920Yeah I know, the tire grip is split between traction for driving the car and grip for cornering. Maybe once I unlock more advanced suspension tuning the Civic will get better/more driveable. Also I wonder if it's just that NA cars overheat faster in this game or something, the Silvia I got has to drive for quite a while before it starts overheating.
>>721698481
I hope they don't nerf the glass cannon build too hard, I love it's "either I win or we both die" and you have to get a really quick car for it to work
>unknown still crashing to traffic
>>721701475Oh cool you already finish the game? what +NG is like?
>>721665832>include TE37>only comes in colors you can't see at all
I'm enjoying the full release but I'm not really a fan of the additional rules. At first it doesn't seem that bad. I can ease off the gas when I'm ahead to keep my temps in check but if I get into a close race that lasts more than 2 minutes (the actual fun races) my engine eventually blows.
>>721667807It was a real thing for Mid Night club back in 90s and 2000s because back then highway racing was huge and there was stiff competition among tuners and racers. People like Smokey Nagata (who is well known for being devoted tuner who created company "Top Secret" and avid runner in Wangan-sen) got their names memorized for good reason.TXR, just like Wangan Midnight, is based on that. Back in 90s and 2000s there would be lots of devoted racing enthusiasts with varying backgrounds (lawyers, doctors, or mechanics themselves) who would throw money into cars and would race around various highways in their regions. Some still do race to this day, but they all keep it low profile because the police is cracking down on hooning and street racing in Japan very quickly.
This is a totally organic thread.

>>721704707that being said, civic still carry you through stage1 ezpz
he keeps raping me
>>721703149More like in the 80s and 90s, and I don't even mean the whole 90s because they started shutting down street racing in the 90s and the motorcycle stuff was pretty much dead by like 1994, although the Midnight Club allegedly lasted to '99. By the 00s it was just glamorized by fiction. That's why a 930 and an 280ZX are two of the most famous cars, things nobody would have used as the basis for a build in the 90s when a gorillion pounds of boost on an RB26 or 2JZ was more practical.
>>721704814the 'time gone by' feel is part of the romance of Initial D and these kind of games, for me.
>>721701656Here, still grinding engine swap perk
>>721704972You need a second playthrough for it?
>>721704972good to know. Glad I didnt start fresh
>>721704814Mid Night Club still continue their activity, but they are low profile because of crackdowns on street racing, like you mentioned. The whole bosozoku biker crash thing was a ruse to get rid of unnecessary attention.They still do meetups and some still race, as well, as they have shown some of pics on members soc media accounts, but lots of members fell off either due to age or like Yoshida, who sold his 930 to Porsche because he was broke.

>try to import livery>injection keeps erroring>can't find anyone with the same error>give up after 30 minuteswell, I tried
How do I get proper AA in this game? FXAA looks like total shit and I refuse to algorithmically generate fake pixels. Downscaling from 4k to 1440p seems to work just ok but it's not good enough.

>defeat all wanderersthese fucking autists and their requirements
I beat a taxi in my 180sx fuck year fucking Kiryu
>>721711175I hate how almost every single Wanderer requirement is just >I won't race you unless you drive this specific car! The old games had way more variety and creativity for wanderer requirements. My favorite is still the Audio Engineer in TXR3 that won't race you unless you have an impressive sound system in your car I.E. you need to turn your in game volume up to max, lel

why are weebs obsessed with Jap street racing? Eastern European and central European street racing is more interesting and it's active even nowadays
why are people obsessed with European WW2 battles? Africa and the Middle East is more interesting and it's active even nowadays retard
>>721711506what makes you think its an either or situation?also i cant see any 300zx‘s flying down the autobahn
>>721711175you wanna race me?ok no nitrous, no upgrades, no custom paint, worthless expensive shitboxes onlyoh i only race people from Fukuyu and my only day off is the first sunday of every other month
>>721705059That perk costs 3000 BP to unlock
you think the new TXR forever killed picrel?
>>721711506When eastern europe has cool cars or an expressway as soulful as Tokyo let me know
Can you unlock lower tier BAD names after you have already unlocked a higher tier of the same version? Like I got Wolf now, which is a higher tier of the names you get for not hitting walls, but I want Falcon instead, can I just hit more walls and get a lower tiers of those bad name or something?
>>721711506>why are weebs obsessed with Jap street racing?What a retarded question. >hurr durr why are people interested in japan interested in japan durr
>>721704786fight through the twisties>>721705185>or like Yoshida, who sold his 930 to Porsche because he was broke.he went to jail for embezzlement. he promised a buyer that he could get him an exotic porsche but just pocketed the money for himself, the guy was in huge debtyou can find pictures of his arrest online, it's pretty crazy
>>721711923I wonder how mad he would be if he knew I only like car games about Japan like Midnight Club or sometimes combat like Flatout or Twisted MetalI'm not interested in European stuff at all and I want my cute Japanese waifu racer rivals
what a fucking chad
>>721711765Is there enough content in TXR to keep people on it for that long? It seems pretty bare.
>>721710812I never understood making your car a driving billboardBesides the actual sponsored stuff of course
>>721711506what
>>721712663because it looks like a race car
The decal selection is still ass...
>>721711880You can to my knowledge.
>>721712663that one is a tuning shop car and most of the parts they use, they get for free from sponsoring parts manufacturers so it's natural they'd put their logos on the car as a sign of appreciationit could even be part of the contract if they ever make one
here's your corvette bro
>>721670641I really want a calculator for this, I should be able to type in a target top speed and get gear ratios returned.
so what's the next step up from this guy? Go into the Silvias or save for a Skyline or Fairlady Z?
>>721695913I think the 24 doesn't let you tune or upgrade parts, something stupid involving nissan permissions
>>721665832Bump for interest.
IS the RX-8 still the best car in that tier or did they tweak it since it's not that good in real life
>>721714545You can buy the mk3 Supra at that tier so I dunno
>>721705973The Taxi has the studio logo on it, it’s meant to be a representative of the company itself, there’s no way they’re letting the embodiment of themselves be a shitter
the car progression didn't improve at all with the full releasewhy still have only 3 starting cars when there's a bunch of low-powered cars in the perk tree that don't lead to anything worthwhile, no-one's going to spend BP to buy those instead of driving their starter cars and then swapping for something more powerful later onthe cars being tiered also sucks, having to ditch your R34 for an R35 just to have any chance at all in lategame is dumbit doesn't need to be like in TXR3 where a Chaser can get you from the start to the very end, just that mid-game cars should also be competitive later on, right now you're forced into either R35, A90, NC1 or LFA
How do you fast travel between PAs? Or is it something you can only do when you don't have Extra Rules turned on?

>>721715286thanks nerd
>>721713215what in the goddamn
>>721686274Yeah with these 3 maxed out battles can end in less than 5 seconds
>>721715678I dropped the game during EA because I couldn't beat him... now I booted up the game and beat him on my first try so uh, I don't know what happened there.The perk system is so insane now in 1.0 compared to the first EA version.
>>721665832I'm brown, where can I pirate it?
>>721715080there's no reason why the starter car list couldn't be like this instead
>>721716453there is a reason - players would bitch endlessly about being forced to drive a slow car in a straight line barely hitting 130kmh for hours before being able to buy a faster car
is this victory reward perk worth it at all? Reward every 8 wins, but it doesn't say what said reward is
>>721716382atlantic ocean or indian ocean
>>721716538what?these are all early game cars and no-one's going to buy them right now because they'll move on to something like a s13, a70 or brz that are just better
>>721715678If you can't handle in a straight line then wait for him to reach Daikoku and jump right as he's about to get off the highway.
>>721713215Their animated livery is cool ngl, shame those record car can't attach aura
>>721665832looks okay, i think im gonna just wait for forza horizon 6
>>721716685that's my point - why would anyone drive them?
>>721714545You can just get the FC now instead.
>>721718683ok then you're misunderstanding what I said but we're both in agreementthe pic I posted is what I think the starter car lineup should look like, currently it's just 3 cars like in early access - trueno AE86, Swift and ND MX-5
>>721717707Same with Lexus. And you're stuck with official colors too.At least the LF-A has tons to choose unlike the RC F
>>721716263It's much easier now with a better unlock progression. Most bosses were impossible to beat without just using the RX-8.
Does this game have itasha?
>engine swap is 3k BPWhy? I just want my starter car to be fast ;_;
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bvwh4INepSQ
Did 1.0 add any more to the map at all? I 100%'d the early access content, but I'm going to be bored if it's just more loops on the same roads.
>>721719540>can't put aura on lfagenki needs to fix this
>>721720845nope, a shame because the Yokohama loop from 3 would have been a nice addition
>>721721076So we got to wait months for less garbage AI (the amount of times they swerved into oncoming traffic was insane), and more car brands, and they nearly doubled the game price.Sucks for those coming in late. The EA pricetag was about right for what it released with.
>>721710623>jp dev incharge of AAnever gets old
>>721668462I'm black and I love this meme. I started using it with friends in real life when talking about cars
>>721720845There's not much more you could add onto a shuto expressway map, they could add a whole new region like the txr3 ones but I think their modeling team is understaffed, considering the whole shutokou map is ported from ITC
>>721677439TXR doesn't have multiplayer? Wow this game is even more shit than I thought.>>721678621>Implying I'm going to give money to people who steal car models from Fagza/Gran Turdismo

>>721720016There's a few
>>721719497>the pic I posted is what I think the starter car lineup should look likei understand that - nobody would choose those cars because you'd lose every race
Electric car swaps?
>>721721784fast as fuck little guy
>>721722060you're not forced to drive them stock you know? stage 1 opponents are not difficult, any of those cars can work with upgrades, their power level is not much different from the current starter carsadding them to the starting roster has literally no downsides, you will move onto s13 and whatnot anyways, why not have some variety when you're starting out
>>721668462>redditWhat's more pitiful, being a redditor, or acting like you don't use it? I'm /here/, and I'm also on reddit, and on twitter. It was a bit funny to act like some sites were better than others in the early web, but it just feels silly to pretend there's much difference between any of them in 2025. Everything is homogenized now, some sites just allow a bit more edge than others
>>721722150EVs are hot garbage, why would you want that?
>>721721535BeamNG has a Shutoko map? Shit, I should pick that up at some point.
>>721722761That shutou map is ripped from TxR2025, so it's not like it's bigger or something. The mod for AC actually ripped the full map from ITC and did minor tweaks so you don't have holes in the ground visible everywhere during daytime.
>>721723454That explains why the map in AC looks like shit everywhere not the road. Thought that was made from scratch by the community, given how many people are involved in it. Ah well.
Reinstalling right now. How disappointing will I be because not much has changed since the early days of EA?
>>721704652it always feels good when you thread the needle at 300kph and see the rival distance start to skyrocket
>>721684793They changed it like a week into EAShe holds back until you beat her once, then you can fight her without the nerfs
time of day mod is pretty cozy
>>721712410I've convinced myself he's a reference to EuroRider the twingo of pizza delivery
>>721724328Pretty sure that was way back in the early patches as everyone got rekt by her at full power
>>721724467she's more fun unnerfed, felt like the first serious wall.
>>721679521>none of the early game rivals were given new cars>>721679564>change Cupid Arrows back to driving Hondas or Blood Hound to a sedani don''t get why they haven't done thisseriously lame
>tune to level 9 powerplant for the achivement>it costs 21 millionouch
Did they make grinding credits less tedious in 1.0? Since you're eventually going to run out of rivals again.
>>721724467Oh wait I read it wrong. Thought it said a week ago
>>721723830EA saves carry forward into the full release, but it's kinda jank since they overhauled the entire BP system.BP now scales based on the opponent's D-Lv. and you get 20% of the original amount on subsequent wins. They also redid the perk trees; there's four in total, a lot of perks have been added, some are gone, costs went up, etc. When you load up your EA save it'll force a respec, but you get to keep some of the unlocks, including cars.The biggest issue is that the respec doesn't take into account the changes in BP reward amounts, so you'll have way fewer BP than you're supposed to.tl;dr if you didn't save BP for a Skyline or whatever, consider starting fresh
>>721724909You'll never run out of rivals, because NG+ existsBut even without that you can turn on advanced mode (water/oil temps + tire wear outside of battles) and get extra money for nothing
>>721703476kys
how is the difficulty of this game?
>>721726503It was mind numingly easy for the first 5 races so refunded it. You start behind them and just blow past straight away
>>721711765What does an arcade racer have anything to do with a dark atmosphere simulator type of game?Are you retarded, is it just because they're both tokyo highway racing games?
>>721726503easy in the beginning, some occasional difficulty spikes in form of bosses, endgame is totally insane with 400kmh+ battleschallenge is the intended difficulty, enjoy is easy mode/sandbox
Too bad I'll trade it for an NB once I unlock it, I'm pretty satisfied with how it looks.
>>721726581are you literally retarded
>>721727507Explain? Are you going to say its supposed to be that easy for the first hour or whatever?
>>721724719>i don't get why they haven't done thisback on ITC they are using to eclipse, i don't see what's wrong with it
>>721726780>txr ripoff unity sloppa>simulator>implying
>>721695639The braking point is different, and sometimes you should be steering as if you're going to hit the inside wall, and then letting the understeer pull out back out.
>>721727958Do you know what beginner quests are?
As someone that only beat TXRZ, I didn't like how the cars handle during EA. Did they improve the handling?
>>721716043what game?
>>721665832I want to play it but $50 is steep and I already have like 10 other racing games to get through
>>721728570Shoulda gotten it when it was still only 30 bucks
>>721726581bro..
>>721716043what gaym?
>>721728372>TXRZthe worst game in the series.it plays a bit better than in the first few EA releases for sure, but it's not a complete change or anything. You have options in settings that can really change how it feels, though, you can make the controls really twitchy and responsive if you want, including how it controls at high speeds.If you're a wheelfag I dunno
>>721665832Open Steam page, it looks like trash from like year 2000, close page.I'd rather reinstall NFS Heat.
>>721728951the goat
Is there a list of Wanderer yet?
I just bought this, I love how it handles
>>721728570Just wait for a sale. The game isn't going to go anywhere. I do hope they make enough to warrant a new Drift at least, since they built up a UE5 foundation to work with.
>Still no sticker import systemI'm just going to wait awhile, since every Steam update fucks with the ones I manually inject into their resource packs.
>>721730247thanks anon
>>721721535I just dislike that if you're going CCW there is no way to turn back or otherwise vary course except to drive all the way around the bottom 3/4 of the map, something that is even worse with additional rules on so you're driving the same speed as most of the twisty parts regardless.>when you see absolutely no one ahead of you until clear around the other side
>>721730930at least from IGN japan interview they are considering to add other vehicle brand but depend on "license holder" also they considering the P and D brand too
Rapid Girl cunny
>my lossless run is over because I crashed into a walloh well, after NG+ then
>>721731341Didn't they add teleporting between parking areas?
>>721731565you're parroting a mistranslated and misinterpreted tweetP stands for producer and D for director, not Porsche/Dodge
>>721731778>just got launched into a skyscraper because of a funny elevation change + hidden civilian carlossless is going to be such an RNG hell.>>721732096ye you can unlock it in perks pretty early.
>>721731778I flashed a Taxi twice on accident
>>721731778Turn off autosave so you can reload when you mess up
>>721732141oh shit, it costs 64. I imagine rushing it pretty early on is wise?
kinda gay they removed some PA places in the C1 and the other area but I'm still happy, I do wonder if they were closed IRL
>>721732195I guess it depends, I like just driving around but it's been handy when gathering all gossip.
>>721724385the game's lighting looks way more realistic in daytime
>>721732310the devs don't want you to know this but driving the wrong way for half the map is a completely valid strategy of tracking down rivals
Is BP farmable now? No more NEED TO BEAT ONE RACER ONLY
>>721732096The parking area is also all the way at the bottom corner of the map anyways.
>>721732402I'd say wait until you beat the game, get to NG+ and then just save your BP after you unlock everything you need/want, not sure how much BP the highest tier opponents give but you can use the insta kill combo to farm them in less than 10s per race
>>721732190is it really lossless then?
>>721732594figures, thanks
>>721732637for the purposes of the achievement
>>721728716If I'm not engaged in the first hour why would I play more? Serious question. The 5 or so races I did were just a complete whitewash
gear ratio calculatorhttps://www.desmos.com/calculator/uspso7whl6g1 = the gear ratio of the first gear (or of the second if you prefer to start the race in second gear)g2 = the gear ratio of the top gearn = the number of gears you haveat the bottom you'll receive the optimal values for your gears
>>721732910that's fine, see you in the thread of a game you like then
>>721733101cool, thanks
wtf happened with the car engine sound? It's so quiet
>>721733101What do the torque and power curves even look like in the game? I've been tuning my transmission to use around 2k around the peaks.
>>721732910 i think japanese people are not the best at racing games and like a slowly ramping difficulty curve when playing them rather than getting absolutely dumped on from the start as in american games. if you want to make the game harder you kind of have to intentionally hobble yourself. however even then the ai in this game just isn't aggressive enough. it can be nasty but it's still a bit too polite and you can exploit its politeness very easily.
>>721733331>What do the torque and power curves even look like in the game?This website has an incomplete list so far, you can use it as a reference pointhttps://ddm999.github.io/txr25info/cars.html
>>721711506>Eastern European and central European street racing iah yes the audi a4 1.8 turbo vs bmw 320d drag race
Im retarded. Why does it have that symbol
>>721733342>however even then the ai in this game just isn't aggressive enough. it can be nasty but it's still a bit too polite>only played Midnight Club>this is my first TXR game>dudes are slamming into me like this is Flatout>one guy rammed me into a wall, dead stopped us both, and then light year accelerated awayuhhhhhh
>>721732190>reload when you mess upmy god you are such a fucking pussy ass bitch lmao
>>721733459I am guessing you cannot tune it?
>>721733459Isn't that the symbol for the Settings/Tune menu? I mean I don't own the car so I couldn't tell you what it does, just assuming you can't tune it
>>721733331they use actual manufacturer power ratings and each car has the correct drag coefficient. the default gear ratios and final drive are a little off from reality with some cars and you can look up the numbers online and plug them into the game for much improved performance.
>>721733548>>721733589Its that
ive done about 30 rivals so far and its kinda boring desu>spawn in the map>drive on the highway till i reach a rival>beat the rival>drive on the highway till i reach the next rival>beat the rival>do this until the only rivals are halfway across the map>warp to garage to change spawn points and if i have BP and CP to spare, upgrade myself and my car>spawn in the mapis thats really all there is to it? even the battles themselves are not that engaging so far
>>721733459that symbol means you can't upgrade the performance (though i might be confusing it with the car setup symbol)
>>721733510the instant you get in front of them they become scared to pass and don't really know how to use the whole width of the roadway.
Is Shimokitazawa 2000CC available early on? I want to sell my 180sx but can't find this guy

I'm new—what controller button is best suited for the clutch control?
>>721733840God I hate those red cunts. The red clams most of all though.
>>721733408Huh looks like I've been undertuning my '99 wrx a bit, I've been aiming for a 5.5k at the start of a new gear when it looks like I should be keeping the revs above 6k. Thanks. Weird that the car tops out at 5.5k for max speed.
>>721733840>Zommer getting his life ruined by a fidget spinner
>>721733830is there a downside to going to the garage and does the day increasing have any significance? do i really need to consider which perks and cars to unlock or do i earn enough for everything?
>>721734048if you start comboing progression you'll have more than enough CP and everything is 'infinite' as long as you're willing to grind. You're not going to run out of anything.
>>721733694You need to be a lore enjoyer to get it. The racing is just the tool used for unlocking the references.
>>721733408how do I use this information with the ratio calculator?
>>721733929I tried manual clutch on controller and it was really difficult for me to downshift for some reason.
In case someone wanna compare the 3 final GTR
>>721733929I use the left bumper.Bit awkward to downshift while braking but I honestly have no idea what else I could use.I guess it also depends if you're using the analog stick or face buttons to select gears.
>>721734048I'd advise getting at least 10 wins in a row since this spawns a Wanderer, best perks to get early are these ones, if you have a good accele car you could use the instakill combo but mostly use the PA areas to cool your engine down, get the perk to call the tuner everywhere and just save your BP for upgrades and cars you know you'll use for a long time
>>721734048The only downside I imagine is that some wanderers only show up every so often, but that just means that at some point you're going to have to just progress days to hunt them down anyway. You can keep getting BP by beating people, it's just cut down to 20% after you beat them the first time, so if a guy gives you 5 he'll only give you 1 if you beat him after that. CP you can also get forever
>>721734259It's not very useful for the time being given it only shows you the curves for tier 0 and tier 9 engines, but you can use it as a reference point for whether your needle lands in a good RPM area when shifting.
how do you decide where your top gear should be? Just sort of decide where you want the balance between speed and acceleration to be?
>check patch note>WAAAH NERF IT ITS TOO OPWhy are these retards like this?

>>721735465the 'tism
>>721734967what are you even on about
>>721734326Back when I had to deal with Fartza's retarded clutch implementation that makes F1 cars faster if you press two buttons at once to shift I put clutch on a face button, upshift on LB, and downshift on RB, but I am not fucking bothering with that shit again.
>>721734764Think about two things:1. Can you physically achieve that speed even on a straight?2. What speed are you expecting to reach on the part of the circuit you're planning to race on?
>>721735624The one guy in the comments saying they should nerf Center of Attention, probably
>>721735606You've got no idea, anon. I had some rules like never buying ATK perks, having a specific license plate, clearing as many rivals as I could without going to the garage, random stuff. I even had hard mods and stuff installed so I could have tighter races but I'd also completely reset if I didn't have a 100% win rate. I was going insane back in Early Access, I think. Thanks for reading my blog
Is the manual clutch better or is it just for immersion? Gear changes feel like pretty good right now.
>>721735702I'm a casual shit whose thoughts about cars extends no further than >hehe MR2 look coolso I guess I need to do a little homework. Using the numbers for cars someone else posted boosted its performance immensely so I think I need to understand how all this stuff works. Never thought I would enjoy a 'drive straight line' game but 12 hours in, here I am still.
>>721735948my biggest 'tism in EA was keeping 100 win combo chains going each time I went out.
>>721735995You can first set your car for the absolute maximum paper speed it can get, then drive down the Wangan and see at what point your speed stagnates, and set that as your maximum speed.
>>721736050On paper this series isn't anything particularly impressive but something about the core design itches my brain a certain way
>>721735948people like you keep me going
>>721736050I just race 100 trucks and vans and get it.
>>721736802Thanks. I could go on about all the other stuff I was doing but basically every save to me was basically curating my own main character and it's a convoluted process of random detail perfection each time depending on my whims

I like this title. CSR vibes. Need moar.
>>721746025Xir that'd be the Smart
Played it for a bit. Very bland and boring. The driving physics are absolute crap.
>>721746098Not really, but yeah. I want a similar street racer with more edge
you've posted this same thing the last three threads. I understand you're the Discord Sisters' D-tier, assigned to niche ass game threads but holy fuck get new material.

Manual or auto clutch?
>>721746621Manual. Automatic sucks in this game.

>>721746803Oh kek, I was. My bad!
>>721746621I drive auto normally in most games, manual here.
>re-racing Bit Warrior in later stage Force you to race 6 other cars at the same time each time after that initial raceYep, I am going to ignore this retard now.
>>721747368why do i keep on clicking spoilers reeeeeeeeeeee
she doesn't love me bros
I love there are more multi car races after Cinderella. The harder ones have like 2 cars blocking you while the actual racer just outright speed away. And each of them have skills that will proc and fuck you up if you don't nitro outright
i guess people complained that getting cp was too grindy in the EA, and Genki took that personally.now i can buy all the cars on the highway after 1 night out
>>721748894it doesn't in the late game when you run out people to race?
>>721737621

>>721692741>unbound is a legitimately great game wrapped in a rancid corpo-dei sloppa wrapperif you use a mod to remove the limited restarts, yes
>>721749979>oil/engine temp oncan't say this is ever a feature I wanted in a racing game
>>721665832the nortubel of racing games
>>721749979Why? wouldn't the opposite be better? engaging the clutch to cool down the engine?
>>721750857because I find having to manage the temp annoying so I use it as a "penalty" for using AT... It's kind of tedious you just ease up on the throttle for a bit after a race, but it's annoying when you just wanna go fast and knock out people.. it doesn't really add any sort of strategy imo, so there's no reason to turn it on unless you want to gimp yourself
reminder that this is totallynotMako
>>721750381well it's a factor in wangan midnight so it should be in TXR, gonna have to deal with it, it's not that bad with a tuned car.Actually genki's last game before this was in fact WM on PS3 and in that game your engine just blows up if it overheat, just be glad that doesn't happens hereI kinda wish they had an actual damage system to insensitive clean racism
>>721751267well yeah they even gave her the same outfit
txr3 had the oil/water temps rightit should cool off in freeroam drastically
>>721665832Idk how anyone can be excited for a txr25 (at least those who’ve played the older titles)This game is dogshit lmao>>721669354Bc heat is even worse
>>721751267The series is full of these, there's a different not-Mako in Drift/Kaido Battle which has a counterpart to almost every single Initial D character
So what did they change from Early Access? I played to the end of what there was on my pirate copy and I felt pretty shoehorned into switching to certain cars in order to compete with the crazy acceleration some of the later rivals had, and even then the only way I managed to beat some of them is because they wrecked at that one underpass.
>>721687716Humiliation ritual round 99999
cope
>>721752398whole story is there, hondas, balanced difficulty, additional rules, less jankBut if I had played the whole beta back then I wouldn't replay it now. I think they'll add more to the game eventually or if anything modders will add fun stuff like they did for the beta
>>721752870glad I didn't play EAI'm having a Blast™
the extra hard difficulty mod from the early access period still works if anyone wants to get their asses handed to them btw
I just started, does this mean I am the best ever?
>>721753516Does it cover the rivals post-EA content?
>>721753679you remind me of a certain someone that raced these roads 4 years ago...i wonder...
>>721732910>5 races>1 hourKek, you must be slow as fuck
>>721754340He reminds me of Swift Emperor, the legendary racer who shows up every couple of years and loses to the newest up and coming protagonist...
I want to fuck Aki With The Over-The-Top Nails
How does it compare to Forza Horizon 5?I was looking for a game to drive cars fast on the streets, but FH5 was kind of disappointing. The physics are good, but the game itself is kind of stupid. There's hardly anyone on the streets and the map is super uninteresting. In 6 hours, I didn't find a single place on the map that was fun to drive.Will Tokyo Extreme Racer deliver something more interesting at this point, or is it also the same garbage?
>>721756383it's way smaller than Horizon maps. This isn't the game for you.
>>721756094>He reminds me of Swift Emperor, the legendary racer who shows up every couple of years and loses to the newest up and coming protagonist...funnily enough official sources say Jintei has only lost twice in the TXR timeline (Zero and ITC) but if you count the Kaido timeline then it's 4 timesiirc, they mentioned his boss battle in 3 was just for 'fanservice'
>>721756383go emulate txr3 on for the ps2, see if you like it
>>721756383if you've played earlier genki games, you'll like txr25if you have not, and are only accustomed to absolute normiecore racing games like forza horizon, there's a higher chance you'll bounce off because you'll find it weird or unconventionalthe devs did not stray from the game's dreamcast/ps2 roots
>>721745575I'd like the game more if the traffic density was 4x as much. Straight line w/ traffic weaving is what I want.
It's so hard to come up with good liveries.
>>721757525SRP on assetto is literally that
>>721757567very true, i've just been copying liveries from previous games
>>721757567It's why I was wanting an image importer for 1.0, so I could just make the livery in Photoshop and then slap it into the game.
>>721757606Assetto is more sim focused though. Last game to give me what I wanted as Midnight Club: LA, which unfortunately never had a PC release. I much prefer TXR's handling though.
>>721757734you can turn assetto into a more arcadey experience when playing with a controller, look up a7 assist
>>721733694>game about freeway racing subculture>is thats really all there is to it?yes, nigger. Its a game about highway "running" in Japan. Literally the most enjoyable part is just flying down the freeways and trying to beat sector records on your own. Granted, they could have went deeper down the underground subculture- maybe offering only special cars, tunes or parts if you beat a certain number of Rivals or a team. The "Rivals" are just a side-game really. There are no police chases or dumb shit like GTA- maybe that's more your style?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t6UtYvpqnKIvvv
to me, the most incredible thing about japanese highway racers is the fact that they're able to reach such high speeds without the suspension giving way because the highways over there are so consistently silky smooth, they actually care about infrastructurei've lost count of how many times i've driven over poorly constructed highways here in australia
So are none of the Honda or Lexus cars worth getting? Wanted to make a top tier Civic and LFA.
>>721758979>the fact that they're able to reach such high speeds without the suspension giving wayall their industries work together. Because the infrastructure is so good- other aspects of their economy could also flourish. Parts manufacturers offering near professional or racing-level parts to the end-user consumer is amazing by itself in these days of propriety EV cars.
>>721758979Are you really saying this when this game is constant CLUNK CLUNK CLUNK CLUNK CLUNK from all the fucking bridge joints
Wait wtf have they done to the customization? I remember being able to slap stickers anywhere? did they remove that?
>>721756383it's not a game for normalfags and the track in this game is the irl tokyo highway, it's not exactly exciting to drive through in the typical way, the enjoyment comes from other things you will probably not understand.
I'm glad there's a music mod because the game really needed more tracks tbf
>>721726780>>721728149topkek. NightRunners was a ripoff game for wannabe cringelords who had never really experienced that undergound street racing life. Sure, there are criminals- but its most often not like that. I would say Wangan Midnight would be a good representation. It's the normal, everyday folk you would not suspect are streeting at night. Its the lonely bookworm college girl. Its cubicle data entry clerk with wild tuning in his car. Its the normal chubby white guy at the hardware store. You never know who is street racing at that car meet.
>>721711765It get mock repeatedly like how Daemon X Machina got humiliated when Armored Core 6 got release after claiming to be like Armored Core.
>>721760006>the enjoyment comes from other things you will probably not understandThat's a good way to put it. If you're not familiar with japanese highway racing history, Mid Night club etc. and how many prominent japanese tuning companies had their roots in highway racing, or haven't read/watched Wangan Midnight, it's hard to see at first why this sort of racing environment is appealing.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rXqEaEkKPuA
>>721761319That anime suck. Doesn't that miata girl have better manga?
>>721759243LFA is real good, it just has no aero options and the engine sound sucks ass
>>721721992How do you unlock this?
>>721760006>the enjoyment comes from other things you will probably not understand.So where does the excitement of the game come from? I'm used to simulators, rFactor 2, Automobilista, etc. I just wanted an arcade game that I could play on the controller and that was fun to drive the car for its own sake. Forza Horizon 5 has good physics, but the game itself is a disaster.
>>721665832Not enough anime babes
>>721759635>350 kph>TSC on constantly>you're in a half-drift because you dared touch the controls>chunkachunkachunka in your earsThe japanese have such fine and smooth roads.
>>721722593EV just raped a Bugatti.
>>721761498>That anime suckonly real ones understand why its so good
>>721665832But is there street racing thots I can date? That's the real question
>>721762398nta for me it's mainly the vibe of cruising for a bit between each race instead of being bounced back to a loading screen each time
>>721762398Becoming king of the expresswayIf you like Initial D, Wangan Midnight or Racing Lagoon, you'll like this
>>721752617Aren't those accumulated early access reviews? Those are always positive since only true believers get the game at that stage.
>>721762398I've enjoyed myself since the EA and this is my first wangan style(?) game. It's a pretty fun game in terms of mechanics with a certain mood to it, makes me want to just go out and drive in the night too. I just wish there was rain.
>>721762594>But is there street racing thotssee >>721748427
qrd on the differences from now and the initial release? qol changes, ai improvements, moar cars, etc? had a good time and went through it twice then left it to bake
>>721762681oh and the only exposure to racing anime I have is Initial D.
>>721762526>Depression>I JUST NEED TO BEAT THAT STUPID DEVIL>use life saving to buy a car just to race it>racing, the very center of the topic, is mediocre at best TXR, the game series that is base on, convey this message much much better.
>>721762681>I just wish there was rain.same
>>721762484ev numbers arent real
>>721762716More cars, more aero parts, optional oil and water management for more money, perk tree completely redone, the rest of the story chapters with more guys to race, they redid the computer AI like a month ago, NG+
>>721762716>Honda is added: its the main reason the game release got postponed>Additional Rule aka Oil and Water, added for more payout if you turn it on, but its a choice so (TXR Zero)players can enjoy it without that annoyance>revamp the perk system to not be shit>more rivals
>>721761498The superior car manga involves a girl with a MR2
>>721762924>>721762970sounds based, time to pick it up.
>clutch? Auto>transmission? Manual>oil and water? Only with Italian food ma'am, OFFYUP it's GAMING TIME
>>721763239You already miss the 30 dollar cost window by a day. Its 50 dollars now.
>>721762924That does nothing for me, anon. I need flagger babes in tube tops with the thongs peaking out the top.
>>721741391A70 Supra is such a fucking turd IRL. Slow, heavy as fuck, AND can't turn either.
>>721763369Based, but you'll have to find those on your second screen. Outlines only here.
>>721763369The racers in this game are normal everyday people. Office worker, teachers, repairman, banker, etc. Its extremely refreshing compare to your usual "gangsta"/thug culture and now diversity culture in western racing game.
>>721759635anon, those are expansion joints made of metal. the road is made of asphalt. it's not possible to ensure a perfectly smooth transition without feeling the difference no matter how much time or money is spent on designing and constructing the road
>>721763909I don't think that retard has ever been outside before because those are used in all kinds of countries. It's how you ensure the bridge or overpass can sway and move and not just fucking buckle and collapse
>>721763221>The superior car manga involvescar delinquents driving to the next oceanfront city with their loud obnoxious car to pickup chicks and get into fist fights? Like in Shakotan Boogie? YEAH
>>721763221I miss remember it. Thanks
>>721763909It doesn't matter how many times the joints were folded by the finest nipponese craftsmen, it remains the case that an elevated roadway with a bunch of tight choke points for other crossing bridges is actually not a particularly ideal place for going fast. If anything it's just more romantic than going 300kph on a dead straight road to nowhere like North America.
this game being about how racing was pretty dead until SUPER PROTAG MAN showed up is pretty depressing because that isn't happening IRL
>>721764374>this game being about how racing was pretty deadI mean, have you visited UpGarage in Tokyo or Osaka recently? It is a good gauge of how the local scene is. A decade or so ago, it was brimming with used, racing-level parts. These days twenty years later? Its not the same scene. Jap bros aren't so much into racing like in the past when even normies were trying it.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x3l6wtd7BfA
>>721764231Its always NTR
I don't know what that guy is talking about. We've got bridges too and they have the same clunk clunk clunk shit
>>721759635I had to dial back force feedback in AC on Shutoko solely because of that. Christ, I can't imagine driving on it for real.
>>721764608Could be worse. Could take place in this certain city, and 99% of the racers are Altima. And they will try to rob you even if you win.
>>721686861>Black trans mexican>player character is starstruck when you meet it>is present in nearly every fucking TierThis shit had to be a self insert
he has rised his last semen
>>721715678that motherfucker just stole a touring car and took it to the highway
>>721764796we have ricers but our car culture is low riders for sure. You have to go 2 hours north to Irvine for where the real rice culture was.Funny thing is, even a lot of the Japanese in LA do the lowrider thing. I know there's also pockets of it in Japan itself, but no clue how popular or niche it is
>>721733827it's a box, but it is a sexy box
>tfw no maid streetracer gf
>>721765303kek, yeah, they still do 'takeovers' to this very day and block off parts of the street while the cops do cartoon ACME retard chases to try to catch themAt least where I live, they undid that shit and the low riders get to cruise once a week and meet up. That and the classic car meet up always has a bunch of people meet up, like a fair.Not my scene, but it's cool.
>>721765053I'm aware of that. Imagine if the lowrider law wasn't pass in the first place. A good chuck of Socal would be lowrider heaven. Shame that a combination of lowrider law, hard crack down of ricer in the Viet part of Socal, and other shit cause a rise in street takeover by younger tacobell and basketball players. Fuck that shitty behavior.EDIT, I forgot that word is illegal and got a vacation 3 times for using that s word.>>721765464I respect that, even if they have some of the strangest artist to draw their lowriders.
I loved Xtreme 1 and 2 on the Dreamcast, played so much of those two.
>>721758515>Literally the most enjoyable part is just flying down the freeways and trying to beat sector records on your owncouldnt have put it better myself. that was all i did in the early access until tokyo drift masters came out.at first it was mainly going up and down the wangan. then i set a goal to try to get up to at least 305kph outside of itreally tickles my autism and stops me from going out and wrapping my car around a tree. my eyes and reaction times are not even remotely as good as they used to be
>>721762635racing lagoon is pure kino and I'm glad the cutscenes and dialogue in here have a similar feel
