post your name
>>721844516Her theme's not very good. Tuner guy being her dad or whatever is also a bit silly.
>>721844908Violent Wind Master
>>721844859Its crazy that you can meet a legendary racer like him very early on in a PA beside the Mechanic..
show me your ride
>>721844908Best aura, too
>>721844908
>>721844375For me it's npc cars making 90 degree turns to change lanes right in front of you.

I lost to Rapid Girl...Granted, I was gunning for the worn out tyres achievement.

>>721845275do you still need to have her game on steam for her to show up?
>>721845275>>721845449these edits look awful
>>721845546Was that a requirement? I just found her in EA without her game
>>721845192A rich family in Europe probably
>>721845637that is literally how she looks though, tardbro
>>721845449would fuck
Should there be more additional cities down the line besides Osaka and Nagoya?
>>721845685>>721845546You face her when you have 666 hm in your total mileage. No need to buy her game. That game exist for Genki to test out the Steam platform.
>>721845904Fukuoka could be a decent if somewhat short loop
>>721845964that bitch is rapid
>>721846042>>721845904Maybe in the ZERO DLC. ZERO isn't in this game, and this game was to see if the series is still popular. I say ZERO since ZERO is the only other racer that is autistic as ??? while just as dangerous.

>>721845275me on the left
Once again, if your engine sound is fucked up try these settings
never played the old TXR gamesif there was one old TXR game to play for new players what would it be? i planning to emulate it on ps2 or dreamcast emulators
>>721845904Never played this game and don't know much about japanese highways aside from watching wangan midnight, but regardless, isn't more map and variety to race on always better?
>>7218465363
>>721846587>Nascar when they have to turjy20wn right for once
For some reason the game suddenly stopped taking my clutch inputs correctly. Lost a couple of battles just because I couldn't shift.
>>721846587I think you have to be a fan of the genre atleast a bit to enjoy itI wouldn't recommend it to my Assetto friends for example. But if you like Wangan midnight give it a shot
>>7218465360 or 3 are the most recommended. 3 if you want to tolerate Oil and Water. 0 if you don't. >1It only has C1>2People claim this is 0 and reverse but its not true. Also, its more janky and while you cannot wall ride to victory, your rivals are immune to wall ride damage and abuse it>Drift gameIts play differently but they all fit in the timeline of the series. >Import Tuner ChallengeCan you emulate it? Be my guess
>>721846587>americans forced to turn
>>721846713Apparently it was some pileup on a well known track for piling up, it's also funny because of >MCDONALDS>>721846868Oh i get that, i also played the demo for night runners and the aesthetic was pretty cool, i think i would like this game.
>>721846536Play Drift 2 too if you cangreat fun
>>721846141it was a fucking tragedy what they did to ZERO in 3from a endgame wanderer on a porsche to a stage 1 tier wanderer on a slow af shitbox, just because they couldn't secure the porsche license (thanks EA)they should've had at least given him a Gemballa since they were literally the same shit.
I'm always blown away by just how much dialogue there is in parking spots. You do a race and then come back and all the dialogue refreshes. It does a lot in making the world feel alive.
>>721847031I never played the drift games. Im guess its touge style like Initial D?
>>7218465360, then 3, then ITC, and then you're pretty much caught up with the lore
sexo
>>721846868Nah, 2025 was my first time experiencing the series and I love it now. I was a huge fan of TOCA Race Driver / GRID many years ago and TXR's world and characters are literally just that but better and more street-oriented. You just have to be into old school stuff.
>>721847140It's half touge battles like Initial D and half drifting events.
>>721847001>Oh i get that, i also played the demo for night runners and the aesthetic was pretty cool, i think i would like this game.I think so too, it doesn't go for the "grittiness" that Nightrunners seems to have going on, it's really just >you're a streetracer and you want to race other streetracers for the sake of racing and going fast>have funbit of added flavour with the PA banter and infos you get on the other drivers and voila just a comfy streetracing game without any tacked on drama story
>>721847062Could be worse. You could be White Charisma. For a guy who is obsess of being Jintei's rival, he is a wet fart in 2025. He does get an aura, but he was pretty sidelined. Meanwhile,Jintei rival's ??? in terms of speed and power.
>>721847386They really should've made him level 30. Just swap him and old Snake Eyes, the guy's nowhere near as interesting even with his former protagonist status.
>>721847140There are drift events, straight up grip races, togue with dirt roads and gymkhana(the original stuff not the Ken Block shit) so there is a lot to go off plus a fat roster of every shitbox you could ever want https://tokyoxtremeracer.fandom.com/wiki/Cars_(TXRD2)The feeling is very much like TXR, you got official day races (Time Attack, Drift Attack etc.) and night races where it's either SP battles, point to point, ghost battles and so on. Plus you got the usual PA banter and a BBS where drivers shittalk each other
>>721847259>GRIDWhat the fuck did they do with my boys at Ravenwest man, Legends is decent gameplay wise but its just a insufferable game to play
>>721847119It definitely adds a ton personality and really gives the feeling of it being a scene.
>>721847192I still prefer Little Beast.
>>721844375>>721845153this fuckin guy
>>721847593Codemasters just lost its soul after years of being in charge of the F1 games. It is what it is. Literally the only good thing about Legends is that they brought back the guy who did GRID's music - everything else is just painfully lacking in love. Even the return of some of the old characters feels like it was treated in a "ok project lead, here are some names, just do whatever you want with them so we can get this out the door" way.Genki not making the same mistake with TXR is a big part of why I love the series now.
>>721846868Would you recommend it to someone who enjoyed PS2 era NFS games?
>>721848029I'm exactly that kind of person. Yes, I would.
>>721845369That pretty gay, anon.
Boxed Daughter
>>721848029Yes, it scratched my U2 itch
>>721848029Do you remember Underground 2's outrun aka overworld map races? Imagine that but an entire game and against team after team. TXR does not have the same rubberband problem, but some certain race have racers that emulate the same bullshit that you can and destroy you.
>>721848029Yes and i consider NFS underground the baseline for arcade racers
Man I wish Initial D arcade stage was ported to PC. TXR just makes me want it more.

cute
>>721848834I love these snippets like you wouldn't believe. They do so much to flesh out the world.

>>721849587yeahAlso a great one was the "4/2chan" user who trolled his way onto a team
I'm just starting, what do I choose?
>>721849907And another "4/2chan" user who is shitposting about you in a certain message board and your waifu decided to beat the shit out him in a race to protect your honor.
>>721844516you're telling me this is your waifu?
>>721850103Enjoy Mode only remove the restriction of what perk to get, but you still need to grind BP to get them. The game is already easy as it is.
which section is your favourite?
>>721848995To me it feels that reading the lore IS the end objective.
>>721850103not Enjoy, I did not Enjoy being overpowered for where I was in the game and had to restart. Now some of the fights are utter bullshit, but it's better than >lol level 2 NOS and 4 engine in stage 2 later faggots

>>721850507
>>721850243The C1 loop is still my my go to, speed doesn't matter that much, you need a machine that can handle corners too.
Ah yes, the California Effect
So now that its how, how do you rank each Honda and their tier in the state of the game?
I had no idea a new Xtreme Racer game was even a thing until this thread. What the hell.
>>721851105>The C1 loop is still my my go to, speed doesn't matter that much, you need a machine that can handle corners too.That sounds like some PA banter from the game lol
>>721851168it wasn't a thing for a good while, it is becoming a thing again
>>721851214kek it does
>>721847062Damn, I remember the time when every racing game had Ruf instead of Porsche.
>>721851168You miss the past 7 month of this place talking about the game? Also, you also miss out spending 30 dollars instead of 50 dollars. Regardless, if you're a long time fan, I would recommend picking it up. It still have all the inane bullshit the previous game has that make it fun.
Respond to this as if you were an NPC in a PA.

>>721851667i actually don't believe anyone anymore when they say "i didn't know about this!" it's just bait for (you)stxr releasing in early access was a huge fucking deal

>>721851717Her real name is Ann Giacomo, she's a fashion model and very forward and flirtysounds very stereotypical italian to me
It's so fucking over.

>>721852079I hate that faggot for forcing me to shove 20 vinyls on my car.
still trying to make something look good
>>721848995There's some more depressing ones across the series, like the rotard who ran an FC/FD team with his wife since 2 but when Phantom9 shat all over everyone he got depressed, broke up the team and got divorced
>>721852360>that merchant that you meet is a final bossIf I had a nickel for every time this happen this year, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice
>>721852468The color combo doesn't work, blue and red don't work that well together unless you separe them with a white/silver layer, the two tone black only creates further problems chromatically, the techno pattern doesn't fit the ae86 and the red stripe comes out of nowhereKeep it simple and study some color theory, check picrel, it has only two colours and they're separated by silver
>>721850103Enjoy mode doesn't actually make the game any easier, it just allows you to dump your bp on all possible unlocks instead of having to wait to progress the story to unlock new tiers of them. as it says you can absolutely just make yourself practically immortal with the right combo of perks but it's ultimately up to you to do that. challenge is basically guided babby mode where new levels of cars and upgrades won't pop until you play far enough in the story despite the fact you're actually racing against those cars you can't buy.
>>721853105>Enjoy mode doesn't actually make the game any easier>except the part where you have cars and parts a tier or two aheadlol if you wanna play on easy that's fine but don't do these gay mental gymnastics
>>721853301it's up to you to buy and install those parts to make the game easier if you wantif a boss is horseshit you horseshit him right back, that's real street racing
is the Savanna RX-7 worth buying when you're already situated with the upgraded RX-8? I don't know how much of an upgrade it is
>>721853464>corvette at home
and the most annoying and busted award goes to...
genki dropped the ball on balancing the battles, 90% of them are still over in under 30 secondsall this talk about hard mode in early access and it didn't actually mean shitthe difficulty mods got it right, there NEEDS to be some rubberbanding when you or the rival are too far ahead and the distance when SP starts deteriorating needs to be much higher, its fucking boring when the entire battle is decided by one single crash by either driver
>>721853510>is the Savanna RX-7 worth buyingLet me ask you this: Do you like the Savanna RX-7? If the answer is yes, buy it. It'S a singeplayer game, there is no meta you have to adhere to, there is no FOMO. If you want to buy a car, buy it and upgrade it
>>721853547I like the Storm Mustang VinylThat being said, that guy desperately needed some like a GT as his ride
>>721853510RX-8 is better in all stats and performance. You only get the Savanna if you really love that car or you're a Ryosuke Takahashi fag
>>721853809I mean, it certainly looks better, but right now I'm just trying to win against superhuman car drivers
>>721853531actual corvette mod, replaces the mazda 6 and goes like a raped ape
>>721853730I bet if Genki COULD Get the rights from Ford, that football team and many racers would be using those mustang.
This game come out 5 month ago.Why is popular suddenly?Also,any good?
>>721853874Oh, I thought it was an NSX with a paint job.>>7218539911.0 got release. The story mode is completed and all the racers for the 2nd half is added. Honda deal held the release date to today instead of early summer.
>>721853991Full release was 2 days ago anon. A lot of us have been here since Feb

>>721857130Equip the instakill combo and grind. Rematches still give about 1/5th of the original BP reward, so get the easy stuff out of the way and then bully whoever you can.

>>721845086Actually starting to quite like the Yaris. Not sure what to do for the livery though.
sex with Polaris in her Skyline
>>721845904Yes.Every location featured in the previous games should be on here.
I'm doing the additional rules but it doesn't say anywhere just how much the bonus is? Seems like its encouraging me to cruise between races but is it worth the extra tedium?
>>721859154It's 50% I believe.
>>721858917Why is Yaris' ass so fat in this game?
The one thing that I dislike the most about this game so far is just how persistent the game world is. It was better in the old games when rivals would just teleport back to their sections, but here they have to drive ALL the way around the map to get back if they spawned in any of the one way sections like Wangan or Haneda, which also means that these sections are almost always completely desolate, especially the Haneda route because all the rivals that should be there are busy driving around all of tokyo trying to get back.
>>721859154i believe its like 20%, no it isnt worth itif it worked like txr3 (cooling or massively reduced heating outside of battle) then it would be fine, but in its current state it just makes the game a slogai doesn't overheat either, so if you're in a 2min+ race at full throttle, you'll overheat and they wont
>>721844516https://youtu.be/ycNd4qZagSU?si=1R3_noWWw2gl8mgpi like tuner theme more maybe because it's remix from txr3
>>721859154You'll be rolling in money. I entered stage 2 of the game with 60 million.
>>721859296Probably because of how the new perk system work, if they spawn behind you, they will instantly lose in most cases. Even if you don't use instant win strategy, they will still lose because if they bump your back, they will slow down dramatically, which allow you to win anyways.
>>721859319It's only a problem if you don't upgrade the toughness. It takes all of, what, one minute in autopilot mode to cool the temps? PAs also reset the temps and you don't lose your win streak in them anymore.
>>721859392Its amazing how much harder he is compare to ???.
So is this just a single player game?
What are some good settings for controller? It feels like I'm being thrown around when i try to change lanes.
>>721859472I don't see where in the toughness perk tree it mentions reducing temperature
>>721859431>Probably because of how the new perk system work, if they spawn behind youThat's not what I'm talking about. I'm not talking about races. In the old games when a rival would drive out of their section, they would just teleport back to the beginning of it (if you weren't close by), that way rivals would always stay in their section that they are supposed to be in. Instead of driving all the way around the map to get back.
The longer I play, the more I feel that TXR3 had more substance. Can't complain though, the simple fact that the series is back makes me very happy.
>>721859154you just don't want to drive full throttle and at high rpm everywhere.all you have to do is shift before the tachometer starts to flash, and lift the throttle a bit when you get to top speed. to cruise you want to shift immediately to top gear and keep the tachometer in the powerband rather than letting it bounce off the redline like normal.
>>721855910that was a really fucking stupid idea but it's done.
>>721859659The game is stupidly obscure in places, but that's mainly what it does, yes.
What's the best car for each stage? I want to do a perkless run at some point.
>>721859804>The game is stupidly obscure in places, but that's mainly what it does, yes.I thought Toughness was just less SP damage on collisions
>>721859154I'd say so, eventually you're just cruising over 200kph and cooling the engine. the extra 100kph you'd get from hammering the engine isn't that much of a downside.t. moron that did an endurance race with alt rules enabled
>>721859634Yes
i hate this little fucker like you wouldn't believe
>>721859705My only gripe with txr3 is handling feels like skating on ice, otherwise it's good game
>>721859991I actually kinda prefer it to the glue handling in TXR2025, but I think ITC had the best handling of all of the games.
>>721859981Is it actually a good single player experience? Most single player racing games are pretty boring since the AI always feels so railroaded
>>721859942RAPID GIRLuoooooooooooooooooooooh
>>721860071>ITC had the best handling of all the gamesthis anon speaks the truth, others will want to deny it
>>721859986I wish I remembered how to minimize the traction control
THIS ONE IS A CHICK NOW
>>721860215No one will question it because no one plays it. Being in a shitty emulation does that
>>721860071Shame about the carlist though, otherwise i agree
>>721860071>but I think ITC had the best handling of all of the gamestruth

>>721860253it's a variable in the savegame file, there actually should be a option in the setting menu to both change the strength of the setting and disable it, but it doesn't seem to work at the moment.there is also a hidden downforce slider that does actually work. edit your savegame with a hex editor.

>Edobashi JCT>Golden Hannya follows me>but Crimson Boy doesn't so it ends in a drawAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>721860784
>>721859296yeah that sucks, going in a PA doesn't reset the AI spawns either, whereas in TXR3 you'd almost always find a rival you haven't beat yet upon going out of a PA

The FD is a strong enough car to last you through most of the game. Once you face the last three teams, you will need a more powerful machine.
>>721864672I don’t care for this version of Fun-Loving Spirit
>>721864604From the EA and past games but there's a few metrics the game tracks and it compares these with a list based off your wins to give you a word.>PrefixAverage battle duration (fast/slow, Lightning Speed is for short races), top speed, win streak, CP saved/spent, day of the week.>SuffixContact with rivals (rare/often), contact with walls (rare/often, Demon God is for frequent wall hits), 90%+ win rate, trip distance.There's a priority system in the previous games, I think you can find some old gamefaqs guide for that. So your name is for quick races where you wallride a lot, probably at 400-ish wins for the 2nd highest tier. The highest tier would be Miraculous Nuclear Warhead.
They changed his fucking emblem…
>>721865630Quick correction but it wasn't gamefaqs, it was an old Japanese wiki post you can auto translate. The system likely hasn't changed much, outside of new unique titles and auras giving you prefixes based on color and suffixes based off which aura you use (such as Stardust from another anon). https://w.atwiki.jp/highwaybattle/pages/65.html
don't look
>>721866969it be that way sometimes
>>721860293Crave were retarded and would mess up translations, yesI'm pretty sure they referred to Gloomy Angel as a guy in Drift 2
>>721866969I feel like I lucked out on her, not my fault she tried to pit me and failed miserably
>>721867690And they made the trap a She in 3 or ITC.
>>721844375RELEASE IT ON CONSOLES YOU GOOK FUCKS I WANT TO GO FAST
>>721868242If you're a PS fag, soon. After what happen with ITC, I think they're staying away from Xbox, and might be the primary reason Genki started experimenting with Steam
>>721844375Bros I'm having fun playing this game.
>>721869635But why are you having fun?
I like this game but so far the worst thing about it is actually playing it. 3 tutorial bosses down and it's already just doing a race then quitting out to rejoin and race again faster. 2 hours of playing and still every other minute I have to mess with the controller settings because it feels like im racing on ice skates. I will try it more tomorrow probably but whatever is wrong with the controls it just feels horrible.
>>721845000>Tuner guy being her dad or whatever is also a bit silly.When you think about it, he is scouting for a mate for his daughter. Why else would he help you with all those engine upgrades (with on demand call) and advice?
What should I buy next? Started w/ AE86, then bought the first Civic and riced it out... now I'm a bit in stage 2 and thinking about upgrading... Not sure whether to get Silvia's or Fairlady Z? Anyone have any tips?
>>721871185I think the silvia was the better choice
>>721869958brainlet
>>721871185Get a Wanderer Requirement car.
So I beaten the game this morning and I can give you my opinion of each of the three G35. >'14You get it for style and nothing more.>'24The expensive of the three choice, but can easily be seen as trap as you cannot change your ratio. >'17Same starting power as the '24, but you CAN change your ratio to go sanic fast. Get This.
>my 6 power, 4 intake exhaust GTR R35 is still in the garage despite 5 power and 4 intake/exhaust mods being locked to the next stage>breeze through stage 3GET FUCKED JAPS YOU THOUGHT I WAS GONNA ENDURE YOUR BULLSHITUnrelated but why the fuck is engine swap unlock 3000 BP. Do you at least get 3000 BP for beating the game?I want a V10 swapped 21' NSX
>>721871858BP is farmable but then again, this game has NG+
>>721871663How much worse is '14 compared to '17?Black Edition is my favorite R35.
Not sure what happened to my game, but I get massive framerate drops every time I drive through the Ginza area now.
I don't remember having a date with Melancholic Angel
>>721872834Sounds like Bomber's slander on you spreading shitpost rumors about you
>>721870051Kitami would want Akio to be his daughter's mate.
>>721872461Not a whole lot. Too lazy to do the engine swap comparison.
>>721873106
>>721873106>this dork was one of the Thirteen Devils
so there's only really 4 cars to choose from at end game, huh...
>>721872834she SUCKED the memory out of you
>>721869676Because I can race.
I need a confirmation if Nissan Fairlady Z (S30) is playable in the game
>>721875102
>>721875102You get it after you finish the main story. You don't need to beat ??? to get it.
>>721844375I finally grinded my face off to 124bp to buy a GR Yaris from a stock AE86
>>721875228And one of the wanderers only race you in it too
>>721875228you unlock it once you beat final main story boss? good to hear that
>>721875256That good to hear. The Yaris IS a wanderer requirement, so you will get that regardless.
>>721875256You can also get a Civic FL5 too since it satisfies 2 of the wanderers. One only races you in FF cars while the other only races you in that
the cornering speed of the later game bosses is retarded
they should randomly generate rival's silhouettes and backstories with AI on the fly
Using AI to build tunes. Its more effective than you think.
>>721844908AZURE wizard (yes, azure is in all caps in the game)
>>721876513the aura titles are all caps, not sure if its intentional or not but it's fun
that works
>>721845086my stage 2 car from early access, will post my current car later
>>721876378AI is pretty good when it comes to cars in general.
>>721875256How long would it take for me to grind out an LFA using a lvl.5 S13 Silvia? I should add that I'm playing in the mode that wears out tires even in non battles.
>>721876812Its stupid effective. Gonna try it in Forza NEXT
>>721876378what did you ask it exactly?
>>721877131I gave it car make/ model, weight estimated power, and total adjustable gears.
>>721852532No, the final boss is actually Devil Z, and he is really fucking fast.
>>721877835Mechanic is the final boss for the normal story that a normie would finish, along with the credit and achievement. ??? is the true ending final boss.
>>721877263nice, I will try that. Does the rune feel good in game?
>>721876378>>721876812as somebody who used deepseek for assetto corsa modding, unless you can provide the AI with a sample of the actual ingame car parameters and explain to it how they work and relate to real life it's literally just making up random bullshit, mostly based on things the video game does not model.like, did you take your drag coefficient or peak power from the actual ingame car data or did you just assume it knows somehow? your wheel diameter and final drive matter too.why are you even using an ai just to tune the gearbox? just look up the gear ratios for the real car and put the same numbers in. it will always be perfect.
>>721878702I dont thimk TXR take drag into account, so I discard that. What TXR wants is weight, power, tire diameter, and usable gears. If you ask "give me the most efficient gear ratios favoring acceleration while maximizing top speed of a Honda S2000 that weighs 1280Kg, has a estimated wheel horsepower of 290, with a wheel diameter of 18 inches"
for anons that have gotten to NG+, will i know when the "final" race is? like will i have time to get all the wanderers right before the final race
imagine being the night runners dev. idc if you liked the game or not, the reality truly is, buddy wasted the shit out of his time through and through lol. rip in piss>naww bruh u don't get it its the VHS lofi aesthetic bruh, its about the viiibes manlollmao
>>721879467I honestly cannot get behind the whole criminal side of it, taking loans from them, and all that shit in between. Everyone actively hates you or treat you like shit.
>>721879467i need to post it
How do I defeat the team leader with nitros when I still don't have it. Do I need to tune for accelmaxxing or just buy new car? I still use my starter.
>>721879570it'd be one thing if it was a smugglers run/midnight club type game but TXR was always supposed to be set in a light hearted anime style setting like wangan and initial D, trying to force this edgy le serious business shit was embarassing, no one asked for that. the fact that TXR has so much character it's borderline a half visual novel is way WAY more fun. it legitimately feels like playing a racing anime. i don't usually like seeing bigger studios do this, but i'm so glad genki overtook that faggot and gave us a true TXR 4, the idea of night runners dominating the genre was disgusting to me. i seriously hope genki gains enough success to make a TXR:D. I know i've already gotten what I wanted but please god just one more.
Using a tiny car sure as hell help make this achievement easy
>>721880070TXR feels like breath of fresh air. I wish Rockstar would take notes and make another Midnight Club game or simply remaster MCLA or MC3 in the future, but they'll probably double down on GTA Online shit again.
>>721880312I got it running at 150 km/h while waiting for my temps to cool down.
>>721879467>>721879620He's a russkie grifter that makes $25k a month from his patreon, which in russia is equivalent of being Jeff Bezos.Trust me he can wipe his tears with a $20k spread, you can talk shit all you want.Also WHY IS IT SO FUCKING DARK. Every time i try to play nigrunners i kinda get used to it and when i come back to TXR i realize Shutoku has FUCKING WORKING LIGHTS.
>every rival in endgame has anti-grav technology and can corner at 90 degree angles at full speedEBINwell at least I got 75% of a fun game
>>721860467Ginza divider, the great equalizer of our time
>>721878702>why are you even using an ai just to tune the gearbox? just look up the gear ratios for the real carBecause it's not stock..?
>>721880497it's about rep and respect bro, everyone is blowing genki right now while night runners remains forgotten, the hole it was attempting to fill was done for them by actual professionals. he has money, but now swag, respect, honor, or game dev ability like genki does. no matter how much money that fag makes, he eill always be a joke.
>>721880705I don't think he cares about that shit anymore, maybe back when he started. Nowadays he just commissions pajeets to make jap bodykits for millions of cars to show "progress" in his blogs and keep his paypiggies happy while he postpones the release again and again to farm millions of roubles.
>>721880070>it legitimately feels like playing a racing anime.Its pretty much is. The entire eternal polaris and her rivalry, growth, friendship with other races, how you're her inspiration and defend your honor, and her G35 appearance could easily be made into a couple episodes. Every racers have a story to tell or are just normal people you meet every day. Its just so refreshing without all the negativity. I knew when I first saw Nightrunner trailer a long time ago that it will not be for me, despite my friends telling me its the TXR. I am glad I didn't fell for it and glad TXR got a proper modern release.
>>721881167yeah and just like an anime the designated heroine is mogged by all the hags and side girls.
>>721880684so?it's not a different engine, the powerband hasn't changed, therefore the gear ratios don't need to change. when the car gets more power all you need to do is adjust the final drive. the manufacturer supplied ratios are going to be the perfect ratios for the most part. some cars have closer ratios, like for example there are three possible ae86 gearboxes, real numbers always work best.unless you can supply the exact torque curve, drag coeff, and tire circumference from the game all chatgpt is doing is making random guesses. AI is great at collating and organizing and making inferences on information it already knows, but it actually doesn't know anything about TXR or the car you are trying to get it to tweak, so while you might get technically valid gear ratio numbers it has no actual clue if they work or not, it's just throwing random numbers out.i had this same situation with deepseek where it would tweak things to like hundredths or sousanths and then put a stupid comment like "//added .01 of a turn to improve harmonic balance" or "//5% improved throttle response" or some other moronic shit that doesn't apply in the sim. i had to repeatedly tell it to stop making shit up. it still made good stuff like suspension geometry and tire physics, but only after i supplied it with examples, asking it to generate the car files without any prep resulted in complete gobbledygook that didn't work.
>>721879467>>721880497>>721879570what is it about night runners that makes you guys lose your shit? games don't even share the same gameplay loop I seriously don't get it
>>721879045>I dont thimk TXR take drag into accountunfortunately you are actually wrongTXR models coefficients of drag and lift and each car has the correct value as per the manufacturer. aero kits affect both of these values. if you're discarding that from the math you are getting nonsense.
>>721879625if ur still usin ur starter you should be able to out corner them
ENOUGH WITH THE LEVORGS
i like this woman
>>721879045>If you ask "give me the most efficient gear ratios favoring acceleration while maximizing top speed of a Honda S2000 that weighs 1280Kg, has a estimated wheel horsepower of 290, with a wheel diameter of 18 inches"well ok so you've fucked upfirst off you don't want the "most efficient" gear ratios, that's a really long gearbox with slow acceleration, then you ask it to "favor acceleration" which is contradictory to being efficient and maximizing top speed.>a Honda S2000 that weighs 1280Kg, has a estimated wheel horsepower of 290, with a wheel diameter of 18 inches"so a completely stock honda s2000 with stock wheels and barely 40 more hp than usualhttps://www.s2ki.com/forums/s2000-under-hood-22/net-ratios-spreads-ap1-vs-ap2-transmission-732099/you are massively overcomplicating it. you car isn't even fast enoguh to require different gear ratios.punch these in. adjust final drive so you can use the slipstream without banging off the limiterjob done.
>>721882248She is waifu tier
>>721881748>games don't even share the same gameplay loop I seriously don't get itthis shit right here lmaoevery time some shill brings up nigrunns you get some fucking bot who tries to claim it's literally anything but a shameless ripoff of TXR and Street Legal while pretending the overplayed tiktok VHS filter and literally copypasted-from-Yandere-Sim HUD are so totally cool and unique you guys
>>721882560but why bring it up every thread? why not just talk about txr instead of some vaporware that's in dev hell?
>>721883149because it's funny retard
>>721883219>because it's le funnyi'll write this down to obsessive behavior thenI gotta clear stage 4 now
I have aura now
>>721882318Worked for me. Dunno what to tell you
GT-R R34 has too much aura not to use. I'll just fully upgrade it and beat the game
>>721883631ok Jintei
>>721883410>NOOOO STOP MAKING FUN OF MY GAMER RACER E-DAD IT ISN'T FUNNY!! NOT FUNNY!! NOT FUNNY!!! NOT FUNNY!!!You aren't making it any easier on him acting like this, just letting you know.
>>721883083Strong would never only give one bottle to a proper racist. She got that on her own!
>White Charisma reduced to a fucking wanderer againWhat the fuck is wrong with genki? This guy is responsible for the last half of zero. How come Snake Eyes gets his own little story but White Charisma is pushed aside and reduced to a wandering whore like he never was anything?
Who is best girl?
>>721883496well of course it "works" bud, you asked it for gear ratios, and it gave you some, but are they actually what you want and make the car perform as requested? probably not. at best you're like a couple decimal places off the real car's ratios, and at worst you actually made yourself slower.LLMs are generally bad at math, too. Ask Grok or DS the same question, I bet you get totally different ratios.
>>721883778I assume it's just because Mazda haven't put out anything good in a long time and it's therefore hard to make an FD be anywhere close to the top dog anymore. It's the only explanation that makes sense to me because Snake Eyes (applies to both the new one and the old one) is so much more boring in comparison.
>>721883867Im going faster and getting wins easier. I dont think its placebo or LLM variance.
>>721883843you posted her
>>721883778he's not even zodiac leader anymore, even silver nobleman FD straight ported from ITC is much better than him
>>721883991you'd get the same thing if you just used the factory gear ratios and a slightly longer final. these numbers aren't magic, it's just multiplying the engine torque, so the spread between them is actually more important than what the numbers actually are, since they are all multiplied by the differential (final drive) anyway.i'm glad it works for you but don't get fooled, all it did was take the info off the forum i linked and make random guesses in an attempt to give you what you want. you could have easily done that without an ai.
>>721882318I'm sorry but when the hell are you going to use first gear off a stock gear ratio?
>>721845086Anyone know how to make the cars have exhaust fire? I keep seeing online people say you can do it once you have lvl 2 engines but my three cars all have them among a ton of other upgrades and they still don't pop.
>everyone drives a fucking subaru: the gamedid subie pay genki to give their dumb ass car to every rival/boss?
Can someone explain this to me please?Everyone and their mom says this game gives them strong NFSU2 vibes, but i legit don't understand WHYin NFSU2, you're immediately put into the seat of a car, then do a race, buy your own car, and in less than 5 minutes since game boot you're let in the open streets, with plenty of different types of challenges to pick from, and full freedom.On top of this, messages, instructions, and story interactions are unintrusive and quick.And most importantly, driving feels arcade as fuck, you can immediately drive like a pro if you know what you're doing, even with the stock car you buy at first.but for TXR? there's literally NONE of that.You buy a car, and then you're stuck in ONE loop track to defeat multiple other opponents.How? Simply surpassing them and distancing them enough, in what is essentially straight roads with minimal traffic.And these opponents? they all drive the same cars and drive the same way.Speaking of the driving... it feels nice, but you feel the weight of your car as if this was more of a racing sim than an arcade racer, so the best way to not crash or get slowed down by hitting the side guards is to just...drive realistically.Dialogues and instructions feel intrusive and long as fuck.I've been playing this for 45 fucking minutes already, and im still stuck in this first loop to surpass these dumb rivals driving the exact same way on straight fucking roads.So tell me again, HOW IN THE FUCK IS THIS CLOSE TO NSFU2 VIBES?
>>721885205>Everyone and their mom says this game gives them strong NFSU2 vibesI've never said this. I enjoy TXR and NFSU for different reasons
>>721884704I think the exhaust starts popping once you reach level 4 and you get a turbo at level 5.
>>721885307>i, individual anon, don't share the same opinion everyone else has, therefore everyone else also doesn'tthat's not an argument, anonevery review on youtube is comparing it to NFSU 1 and 2multiple anons in this very thread and the ones before posted images of NFSU2 along "we are so back" or "didn't feel this good since picrel"in this very thread there's more than one anon asking if they'd like this game if they liked PS2 NFS games, and multuple anons answering yes, saying it gives them the same vibes, scratches the same itch, etcyou, individual anon, disagreeing is not an argument for why everyone else says TXR gives them NFSU vibes
>>721885205>On top of this, messages, instructions, and story interactions are unintrusive and quick.Yeah, you're not going to enjoy TXR then. This is one of the big things that made me like U2 a hell of a lot less than U1 and MW for instance, so if it's a positive for you then all you care about is the raw gameplay.
>>721885519>everyone else hasStop lying. Post 10 examples of people saying that
>>721885205There's no similarities with TXR and UG2. UG2 is about ricing out your car with detailed customization while TXR cucks you to only 3 choices for hood/bumpers/spoilers. UG2 has normal circuit races/sprints/drags/tournaments and an open world, TXR has outrun races in one highway. UG2 takes place in america, TXR takes place in Japan. TXR just plays like a ps2 game, in a good way, and it reminds them of the good ol' days.
>>721885205>NFSUwhat ? NFSU all about typical racing games, TXR more like JRPG but with car
>>721885205No one says that.
>>721885205Because TXR is not a street racing game in the way that most street racing games are.TXR is much more similar to a track racer with a night racing thematic. You drive on one very long track constantly, in repetitive but constant car duels, with a focus on upgrading and becoming big. If you want a really good street racing game, you're gonna want to just play NFS Heat modded or play the 2000s NFS games. TXR is more of its own unique thing to appreciate.
what are my choices for the good cars going into stage 3?
>>721884670in this game probably neverhaving more gears isn't necessarily always desirable because having to shift gears frequently also slows you down. the races in this game start in 2nd gear speeds most of the time so why waste the time going from 1st to 2nd at all?
>>721885418Damm, that's a long while.
>>721886242yeah, so why not make first be in the start of the powerband at 60kph?
>>721886202best one is R33, FD is also great but overheat easily
>>721885205the track is a 1:1 scale recreation of an actual highway in a real city and the street racing you're doing is basically exactly what real street racing in Japan was like for the past 20 years or so with some minor fantasy elements and legal compromises.this is completely unlike NFSUG which is just a ripoff of Fast and the Furious and presents a fantastical tuner subculture and wacky underground criminal racing scene that never actually existed but people like to pretend did.pic unrelated my thumbnails won't load
>>721886381RX-7 Type RZ any good until the supercars?
>>721885740>>721885824here 5 example just from this thread>>721844634>>721848029>>721848113>>721848379>>721848470picrel is also a random steam review among many others like it
>>721886540ok but consider: I do not give a fuck
>>721886540You just like different things compared to other people who liked those games back in the day. That's normal for those who like Underground 2 more than the other classics.
>>721886618my point is i keep seeing people, both here and outside, saying this is giving them nfsu2 vibes
Im having fun so far but I can't really get a feel for the game's difficulty. Regardless of level, the rivals I can pass and those I can't seem to be sorta random and also entirely reliant on top speed around 4th gear. The only two rivals I couldn't beat on my first try so far beat me by leaving me in the dust early, and when I beat them, I beat them because they both ended up scraping the wall enough for me to pass them. None of the rivals seem to have the aggression to beat me through natural feeling ways, it feels like just a battle of stats and I don't know if I'm on my way through getting my ass beat in stage 3 or if Im gonna be fine.
>>721886524yeah, but that car can overheat bit faster than R33 skyline last time i use it, so you have to play throttle control with it
>>721844375I like how you can tell some of the same posters from the Early Access threads are in here. Or maybe I just have schizophrenia as a longtime /vg/ faggot
>>721886540it is kind of like the highway roll races from ug2 which themselves were inspired by the original txr games that were out at the time. but that's it. there is no dramatic movielike story or expansive map, you have the actual real life tokyo metropolitan expressway and you go fast as fuck on it and that's really unironically the whole point. i think the game hits harder if you're actually japanese or a big weeb because it's not just a fantasy city like nfs but a real place you can go and visit.
I'd whoop any one you nerds on C1 inner loop
>>721887427probably, I fucking hate that place.
Is Jintei the only former protagonist who isn't a twat?
>>721859294because GR Yaris' ass is fat IRL
>>721886882they are but also yes you do
>>721854804>meanwhile Mitsubishi sitting in the corner
Time to make the choice, NSX vs GTR vs Supra
>>721888017nice
>>721888137Hey at least they fixed the Eclipse's fucked up model
>>721888137they got 2 Wycked
>everyone in the PAs hyping up phantom9 and the 13 devils>almost no love for the zodiacsThis isn't fair, White Charisma doesn't even have a custom bodykit or cool intro like Snake Eyes or Speed King
>>721888597Yeah, I don't get why they're hyping up P9 so much. The TXR1 protag is their only cool member.
>>721879285Defeating all racers is a requirement before racing ???.
Is BP limited? have i fucked up my save by not unlocking the tuning upgrades? I was winning everything till I got stuck and cant move my ratios to go faster.
>>721888947you can grind bp from racers you've already defeated before
What gives you the Rule-bending Outlaw name?
>>721888597>>721888659Is P9 from ITC or where are they from?
>>721889029cool, I couldnt see it coming in before but I will try it again
>>721889239Yeah they're the main big boss team, ITC is called Shutokou Battle X in japan (because it was only on the Xbox 360)
The BP grind is getting to me.
>>721889239Yes, with Snake Eyes (the old one, not the new one) being the TXR3 protagonist.
>>721886882How can you tell?
man I give up, waiting until I can inject shit again and just putting the actual hood decal in will be way easierdon't help I can't view from above while shaping the decal either
>>721889653>can't view from above while shaping the decal eitherwhat do you mean?
>>721889653Kino
>>721889653it's the Merk Feeve!
>>721888597Almost everyone in Be Legend is a former Zodiac that changed names to some historical figure (Kongming, Joan of Arc, etc)It's a shame they didn't keep their unique emblems though, the Be Legend emblem is kinda lame
I feel like I should start a new playthrough because the update to the perk system fucked my BP.
my shit attempt to recreate the NFSU2 Rachel Teller 350Z
Ez .Also did it on normal new game not new game plus+ The first gen nsx with the turbo v6 swap is probably the fastest to 300mph with out nitro in the game
>>721890842Fucking phone
>>721852360That look so stupid, what was he thinking?
>>721853874>No NOSBased af
>>721890892Nice job anon
I wonder which cars can hit 350.
I really like the auras in this game, especially those with more subtle effects.
>she bought those levorgs for the 3 phantom nine brothers>is actually pissed that said brothers ditched themfor their old machines
>Husband was in Aquarius where only single men were allowed so he graduated from that time>wife is in an all female team so he can't join
>>721893056To be fair, who the fuck would use Levorgs over GT-Rs and Zs
>>721893060
>>721890892you don't do things like that on your first playthrough unless you're looking at a guide or something. Why would you do that
This game needs a Ford F-150.
>>721893657>gets stuck at the Ginza dividers
>>721893540NTA but I sometimes savescum in games just to have clean no-loss records, I didn't in here thoughThankfully NG+ resets win/loss data
>>721893695>parks sidewayswhat're they gonna do, pass me?
>>721893785well doing that on first playthrough is fomo shit. There's no rush and no one cares about achievements anyway. Doing a legit no loss is cool though
>first damage increased by 50%>perk that gives you a 50% damage increase in the first 30 seconds This shit was so broken I actually changed perks, I was one shotting niggas in 5 seconds
>>721894295Yeah that combo sucks the fun out of the game. Great for farming credits (especially on jintei, snake eyes or R35 polaris) though
>>721894295This and the LFA for NG+
How do I make sure I'm not missing out on story/cool character stuff? (Or my waifus) Do I need to spam talks in the parking zones constantly or are those just extra flavour and all the important stuff are in the scenes the game forces you in?
>>721894949The yellow exclamation ones are either tips to battle wanderers or rumors about (You). There's also now fast travel between parking areas but you have to buy it first
I'm only at the end of stage 2 (I think that's what it's called from people here) but am I the only one finding the game too easy? I'm only in the 180sx with lvl1 everything and lvl 2 engine and I even get the bosses super easily. I'm playing with the oil and temp thing but that doesn't really add more difficulty, just a bit more realism.Does the game get harder later on?
>>721895098There's a certain angel that you can try challenging again. Except she isn't holding back unlike the first time
>>721895098Yeah, there are quite a few spikes of difficulty though most regular rival teams will stay pretty easy
>>721894949There are some stage locked conversations, but if you miss them you can pay 100 credits to unlock them in Reference under Rival Dialogue. But otherwise just do your best to clear out your unread PA conversations.
>>721896486>Reference under Rival DialogueWoah I didn't know they added this, very nice.
>vinyl has the same color and settings as the body>somehow they still look differentI hate this shit like you wouldn't believe.
>>721896486Oh nice, so basically everything is in the reference TAB even if I miss out on it in the parking talks?
I need gear ratios for the Subaru wagon
>>721896696Speaking of, are there any vinyl shapes that are concave? Something like this where the full black part is the vinyl and the rest is empty.
>>721897085Yeah, there's no way to permanently miss dialogue. If the PA conversation isn't stage locked, you'll still have to read it in the PA before you can read it in Reference. The game will mark stage locked dialogues you can purchase with a red dot, it's usually random rivals mentioning you beating the stage's bosses. The other stuff that gets marked with a red dot are the PA rivals, since they have a lot of permutations and it'll auto unlock the loss/draw dialogue so you don't have to throw races for that.
>>721897330Does the reference carry over to NG+?
>>721896696Here's a tip: cover the entire car with a monochrome vinyl first, by doing this you work your way around this issue.
>>721897328I couldn't find any when I was trying to do my liveries. The best I could do was the star under shapes, which has it's own issues.>>721897405It does, including conversations. This is NG+ since my Win/Loss is still at 0 here.
>>721897541Shit, that's clever. Too late for this car, but something I'll do for the next one.
>>721897314https://www.desmos.com/calculator/uspso7whl6You have to adjust the first and top gear and final drive yourself depending on your desired maximum speed and the RPM at the start of your battle (in general 80-90 km/h is a good aim for first gear), then input your first and top gear ratios, as well as the number of gears, and the calculator will give you a good setup.
>>721897860
>>721898064I mean you can always just eyeball it and adjust it to fit your preferred RPM instead.
>>721898151I'm not even sure what my 'preferred RPM' would even be in this context. I know jack shit about gear ratios, I just like driving fast
>>721898296In the garage under your car stats, it'll list your max power and torque and what RPM they peak at. You generally want to set your gears so you spend as much time in those ranges (the powerband) as possible. At a really basic level just make sure your RPM is around where your peak torque is when you shift up.
>>721845086Fuck the 40 layer limit. This is the best I can do for now.
why is that gay ass guitar riff that plays when you win not muted with the rest of the BGM? are you fucking kidding me?
>>721901340Maybe it's part of the SFX?
>>721900935sick, I usually just go for a single custom paintjob. Luv me metallic matte purples
>>721901595That's what I usually do too, I just wanted to try something different.
do you keep your cars and unlocks in NG+ or is it like 3 where you have to decide before starting if you keep your shit question
am I missing something? these < 30 second "races" are a joke. all this game is is just driving along a straightaway. the controls are fun and all but there's no challenge. this game needs actual races
>>721902252yup, it's just that easy. All you have to do is be faster than the other guy.
>>721880070>it legitimately feels like playing a racing animeThat honor belongs to Racing Lagoon
>>721901971yeah, you keep all the car in garage and CP
>>721902335Just spin them out, idiot(1.0 seems a lot more buggy than the EA when it comes to collisions)
>>721883149Because it all started during the EA period of the game, you had pajeets here or on YouTube saying WOW RACING GAMES ARE SAVED, TXR AND NIGHT RUNNERS??? WE'RE COOKING BRUH and comparing both games unprompted
>>721902658I have noticed that. Mostly in the form of civilians getting launched into the stratosphere when I slam into them because I'm a retard
>>721902252Yeah, after all the racing games grifter youtubers shilled this game to no end saying how its different from the modern casual games, this game is really even easier than Horizon or Motorfest. At least you can actually lose races in those.Don't get me wrong, this game absolutely is fun and good due to its vibe, the atmosphere and the car grind aspect, but its literally no harder or more engaging than a Horizon game. This is still an uber casual racer that a baby could play with their eyes closed, the difference is that the theme of the game is highway racing rather than festival events.
>>721903024I feel like that's on you for trusting youtube, I was sold on the game because I was doing a PS2 NFS marathon, happened to run into the game on stream and it looked pretty much more of that.
how do I jump inbetween PA's?
>>721902252this always was a niche series so it was weird when normies gassed it up as the forza killer. its weeb wangan midnight simulator, not the second coming of NFSU2
>>721903267It's a buyable perk, should be pretty early on.
>>721903267There's a perk you have to unlock in order to be able to do that.
>>721903267perk after getting the discount for tire/nitro replenishment
>>721903363>>721903360>>721903319ohhh, cheers
>>721902658i agree, was just found out that TCS now tied with framerate, 60 fps has less TCS activation than 120 fps genki pls fix
whoever thought TXR would kill Forza is either a zoomer or a pajeet, the reason why people are praising this game or Genki is because they offered the early access at a reasonable price, were open to feedback and adding shit they originally weren't supposed to, they could've taken the easy GAAS route and drip feed updates and DLC for the game but instead decided to just release a game that works, knows exactly what I wants to be and besides the tutorial at the start, it doesn't hold your hand and stop the game to introduce some half assed mechanic or thing, compare the shit that's been released on big publishers, NFS was halfway decent to a good game but then EA killed Criterion, Forza Motorsport was a broken fucking mess and H5 is boring as fuck because everything is handed to you, GRID was a flop, GT7 is an insult to the previous games and no amount of detail will ever make up for losing the soul and freedom of choice that to be fair had started since 5, Project Cars is dead and any other game is a shameless ripoff of TXR or a simulator that is straight up not fun to play and the Crew is... well even the japs were a bit baffled by the "japanese" thing they did
There's no reason you can't enjoy TXR/Forza/GT/NFS all at once.
>>721904331True. I'm constantly flip flopping between TXR, modded NFS Heat (which is still so fucking good holy shit I cannot get tired of that game), FH3 and sometimes I reinstall Motorfest when they release a new playlist cause honestly those dedicated playlists are quite kino, especially the recent ones where they bring actual car museum guys to talk about car history.
>>721902252This game isn't for "racing game" fans, this game is for TXR fans and JDM tuning nerds, Genki has an audience and they made a game for that audience, end of story>>721904331The reason is that Forza is a shell of its former self as a result of Microsoft mandated enshittification, NFS hasn't been good since like ProStreet, GT has all of the parts to make a decent racing game except the structure to put it together as a coherent experience, Genki is the only dev to have understood what their fans wanted and delivered exactly that>>721904601I don't understand what's good about "modded heat", I tried it with the unite mod, I really tried to like that game but the dogshit driving model, AI, map design, aftermarket parts choice, livery editor etc were too fucking bad for mods to fix itGhost was a bunch of hacks and they didn't manage to make a single good game in 10 years of handling the franchise
>>721904847Heat is unironically the second best NFS game next to Carbon even at its base. Its handling seems unfocused at first until you realise you gotta focus on finding the right drift zone in every turn to maximize exit speed, and the sense of speed is unlike any other racing game.Also I don't use UNITE or any big mod package and I don't suggest people do that. They always ruin the handling by trying to force it into playing like MW and Carbon when the game isn't built for that. I just use a graphics mod to make the night even darker and a mod that disconnects more bodykits parts from one another.Also my god the fucking car sounds in it. Not only is sound affected by every single part upgrade (and further change by the exhaust sliders), but its affects by every single thing in the enviorment and its also LOUD which is great because my biggest gripe with a lot of racing games is how low the car volume is. The NSX in that game sends me shivers down my spine when I rev it.
>>721904331I like to copy my TXR car over to GT7 just to join Tokyo Expressway hangout lobbies
>>721903948>well even the japs were a bit baffled by the "japanese" thing they dididk why people diss motorfest's playlists, esp the jap one. Yeah its still a bit cringe but it actually tries to get you to bond with the characters and unlike forza all of those cunts think you're a piece of shit until you prove to them you can drive
>>721904847Hot Pursuit 2010 is pretty good and in a "be urself" game design kind of way like what TXR does
Two gaijin going around the service areas in Tokyo to get rides in fancy cars:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZdxIoxbaQYQ
weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
>>721905601Even vanilla handling sucks because not a single programmer in Ghost has ever driven a car or has played an actually good racing game in their entire life, if brake to drift handling isn't snappy like Ridge Racer or Burnout you're just doing it wrong, if you offer the player a choice between drift or grip you need to make both viable for at the very least their intended purpose, instead of having grip just be understeer mode. Again, if I have to fiddle with settings I'd rather play sims where what I'm tweaking has some basis in real life physics>>721905679>overblown neon aesthetic, fugly bodykits made by someone that doesn't understand car design, aneurysm inducing dialogueIt makes a complete mockery of japanese car culture because the "creative" people in charge of making it haven't done the slightest bit of research, there are decades of V-OPT, Best Motoring, Revspeed etc rips available on youtube covering everything noteworthy in the car scene from the 90s onwards: touge street racing, highway street racing, street drifting, professional drifting, tuning shop visits, track days, tuned car showdownshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c7v2sPZLNzs
>>721907529>It makes a complete mockery of japanese car culture because the "creative" people in charge of making it haven't done the slightest bit of researchNFS has literally never cared about that since day 1 with UG1. The point of NFS always has been to take tuning to the extreme. If I want to put a big ass sharp spoiler on my Honda Civic, its my god given right.Hell even the new TXR understood this and gave us more out there wing options and bumpers.
>>721907529>talks about nfs>complains it doesn't feel like a real car
>>721907797I was talking about motorfest which doesn't even come close to understanding the aesthetics of the japanese car scene, and speaking of the UG games, they have the cultural background of the spocom era and a lot of the bodykits in the games are just real life bumpers unbrandedhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GMPqsOaRmSg>>721907946>reading comprehensionI'm not saying that NFS should be a sim, I'm saying that the cars should behave in a believable manner, handling of ghost's nfs games is neither believable or satisfying, contrary to pre 2010 NFS games in which cars behaved like you'd expect from a car, as in there's a corner you BRAKE and then TURN because the tyres have the bare minimum of a traction function implemented in them
>>721902252you are correct, challenging battles come at the very end of the gameluckily the game's moddable so you can be sure there will be difficulty mods like the "xtra hard mode" that's not yet updated for 1.0
>take off every single offensive perk I have>Snake Eyes still loses in 30 secondsFucking pushover.
CarX livery customization have spoiled me, there is no way I could interact with txr's clunky livery menu so I went with a clean build instead
>>721910116really glad NG+ reset the skill tree, i can ignore atk related perk to make the battle bit longer
the game is kinda too easy? how the fuck am I winning drag races against 300hp wrx sti's with my 140hp miata? who made that shit?
>>721912534Just pretend that WRX is driven by someone who used deepseek to tune his car.
>>721911282It's clunky. Feels like fastest way to interact with it is mouse + controller.

>>721912813those silhouttes were already made with AI me reckons
>this car belongs to an Zodiac driverYou wouldn't drive this, would you?
how long until people start drawing porn of polaris-chan?
>>721912883I highly doubt that.
>>721914072already is >>721907946
Do any of the drivers have interesting licence plates?
RECORD cars are really just ghost carshuh
This car reminds me of Samantha's car in NFSU. Also this car has pearlescent paint but we can't do that for our cars, boo.
>>721844375Never happens to me in roblox.
>>721892318No clue.
>>721915705The last gen Eclipse is so fucking ugly
>>721896696>>721897541protip: car paint in the game is usually 0.5 metallicthe metallic/matte slider is in the color picker.
