Crazy Taxi World Tour gameplay
where did you get this?
it feels very wrong to watch or play crazy taxi without any music
>>740648909me
>>740648932based. looks fun
>>740648925real g right here
>>740648807UE5 and its consequences have been a disaster on the gaming community.
When I heard it used AI, I didn't think the actual gameplay would be ai-generated too.
do zoomers even know what a taxi is
>>740648807looks fucking bad. really weightless destruction, bad effects, REALLY bland looking environment
>>740649031>Crazy Uber>Crazy Lyft
>>740649031Yes.Why is this even a question?
he's in
>>740648807Looks fun.
>Chat, The Taxi Situation Is Crazy Right Now
>>740648925When I feel like an absolute retard I have to remind myself of this nigga who drove to court with a suspended license and ZOOM CALLED the judge while DRIVING to court late.
>>740648807jesus this looks like absolute ass. modern videogames are so bad. can't even make a fucking crazy taxi game.
grok, is this real?
>>740649569haha sometimes
>>740648807looks like assonce again posting my unmatched scores
>>740648807Ramming cars like the juggernaut better be because the don't want the car flipping around and the tower of pizzas clipping through the buildings and floor.
>>740649752>This Crazy Taxi game is NOT realistic!
>>740648807wtf. its crazy taxi not crazy delivery boy.
>>740649706>58kare you following specific routes or freeballing it?
>>740648807The way this can be bad or good all depends on the map. If it's just a boring, senseless grid with repeating landmarks, it's gonna suck.As a former delivery wagie the one thing that was kind of cool was visiting all the different neighborhoods whether it was suburbia or out in the sticks, even if it was technically a few miles from the store.
>>740650253i know (or knew) the optimal routes just from pure repetition. also learning to abuse drifts and wall clinging helps
>>740648807You know what it's missing? The suspension physics. The frame of the car isn't rattling with every turn and jump and causing sparks to fly everywhere and it's making the car look too glued to the road.I hope it's just the minigame keeping the car like that, otherwise it's losing a key feature.
>>740650317I found it easier to score higher just from sticking with the main area and avoiding the city, personally. not sure if that's the right approach or not.
>>740650432I knew it was missing something. this is definitely it, which is a shame given they're halfway there with the impacts.
>>740650434you should definitely hit the city, once you memorize the 4 main buildings in that initial grid and which one leads to the mall area shit becomes super easy. plus you can score a ton of points going from the city to the baseball stadium on the highway by driving opposite traffic, for some reason the riders go nuts and give you extra tips when you do that
>>740648807I like the open world with customization races and side quests but man they need to make the camera closer and car bouncier, come on sega make a good game you're halfway there
>>740648807https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kbQkVEYdH14more footage
>>740650603that's probably what's keeping me from scoring that high. I'll try it, just gotta memorize the city better. most of my practice came from the main area, so I got that down packed. my biggest gripe is the inconsistency I have riding the walls on the bridge. going to the city is easy as shit, but coming back from it always has me fucking up for some reason.
This better be a real world tour. This should have easily 8+ new maps. This footage is just the same CT1 map and doesnt look like an improvement.
>>740650823yeah coming back is definitely harder since you cant cling to the wall as easily but once you get it down its easy money. i'll say the only area i really dont know super well is that weird part of the map between the starting area and the back end of the city where that tennis court is since barely anyone gets dropped off over there. also probably dont have to tell you but spamming the shit out of boosts is also key
>>740648807Looks like soul is back on the menu, boys.
>>740648807>stops on a dime>barrels through traffic with absolutely no consequencelooks bad
>>740650617Wait its called World Tour but it's just open world San Francisco, or do you go from SF to Egypt, India, Japan, etc on the same open world map ?
>>740648807>ram into car>it goes flying while barely affecting your speedI really hate this. In the OG your momentum was utterly fucked over if you hit a car incentivizing you to swerve and weave more actively. Now you can just blast everyone off the road.
>>740650969where the hell is the soul? I'm not seeing it
>>740649034A faithful remake in other words
>>740651136Down here>*unzip penis*
>>740651171explain World Tour title if its a remakewhy is sega so incompetent they cant create new environments with crazy taxi gameplay
>>740648807>>740650692The cars you bump into have no weight. Like everything just bounces off of you whereas in the original game, if you go against traffic and bump into a car, it will kill your momentum and knock you back.Not to mention, the actual driving looks so slow. In the original, there was a sense of speed if you were going fast. The camera jitters and The only thing going on here are the flame effects when you are going at top speed or just fast in general.I can even prove it via this long play of the OG game:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qjIGkv0_dEMThis just looks like shit mate. How do people look at this game and say this looks fine? I'm not even being nitpicky. A racing game and a game like Crazy Taxi needs to fucking feel fast and chaotic (but in a fun way) and this game doesn't>>740651171Fuck no. I'm not a big Crazy Taxi fan, but I remember it being WAY better than this.
>>740650953yeah that backend of the city is unfamiliar territory for me too. pretty rare to get any drop-offs there. boosts are what make the game fun honestly, on top of crazy drifts. mastering it while avoiding any crashes is the best high, although hard as shit. funny enough, my inputs on a dualshock 4 make it easier to bunnyhop, so I'm sometimes fucking up my boosts after drop offs. not always, but often enough.
You guys are too negative to take seriously. Like you are trying super hard to make the game look bad. Stinks like trolls here.
>>740651352>stop being a negative nancy and pointing out how bad the gameplay looks!no
>>740651384Yeah, super predictable troll reply.
>>740651352reddit detected
>>740651352You have shit taste dude.Imagine being the retard defending a lazy ass remake that looks and plays worse than the original game made for fucking arcade systems millions of times less powerful than the consoles this is aiming to release on.
>>740648807>stop on a dime brakesfeels wrong
>>740648807Looks Fun
>>740651086The car slowed down on the third hit, but I'm not sure how it works since they rammed into the others without issue.
>>740651418and stay gone faggot>>740651442you can kinda stop on a dime in the og but its not as clean and i'm not 100% clear on how its done. i think hitting reverse and break at once does it
>>740648807Yep I'm getting it
>Art trannies forever seething AI will replace themLearn to code... oh wait lmao. Go flip burgers, liberal.
>>740650692The fishing mission sounds fun as fuck lol
>>740651521your bait would be more effective if anyone was talking about ai
>>740648807>doesn't boost via reverse drive gas.soulless casual slop
>>740648807Nice
>>740651696its so satisfying chaining like 3 of those back to back and just fucking flying
>>740651549You are only here to shitpost because the game uses ai. Wake up. Every game from now on will use ai. Get over it, tranny.
>>740651793okay
>>740651827Your replies are all the evidence I need. I can feel the pure seething through the screen.
>>740648807It looks... Slow
>>740648807I'll just keep playing High Roller on my Xbox with my Duke controller
>>740649706I'm a Crazy Taxi 2 man, myself
>ITT ham hands. 99% are too young to get this reference.
>>740651915cinnamon my belovedi could never get into 2, not sure why
>>740651696see that's what I was afraid of. sucks they chose to modernize controls
>>740648807It looks too slow
>>740652063 >modernizethat's a funny way of saying retardified it.It took 3 buttons in sequence in the first game, you could do it as fast and as many times as you can physically manage. They changed it to the Y button.The dreamcast could have had a single dedicated button on the face to do the exact same thing they've changed it to now, but they didn't, because that is fucking stupid. And it's just as stupid now.
>>740652212Unironically needs the Burnout pov change/speed lines without changing the actual speed.
>>740652217and now its just a fucking button to boost I presume. the exact thing that makes or breaks the game for me. sucks they bent the knee to modern gaming, og crazy taxi's mechanics were fucking fun and unique.
Why does every game look the same now?No matter the artstyle, they all have this same sort of "look".
>>740652449AI developmed a style and now it's everywhere.
>>740651265Mod the game then.
>>740652449This is the AI future you wanted, chud.Enjoy.
>>740652341you should know they dont care about the minutia of game design when making these demakes. they took the surface level core gameplay loop of the og and then said "whats everyone else doing? lets do THAT" gone is the uniqueness and charm of the og. i love all the little strategies you can implement in the original that really test your skill and knowledge>drifting>boosting>hard stopping>wall clinging>style points>not running through passengers when youre stopping to pick them up so they dont take 20 years to get into the car while the timer goes down
>>740652449I'd say lighting, it's like even the worst models can look like some SFM stuff
>>740652510Or the devs can just make the game not look and play like shit. Seems like a better compromise seeing as they're selling this trash for God knows how much.
>>740652617Let's hope they improve the gameplay before release.
>>740652526don't forget bunnyhopping, as pointless as it was in most cases
>>740648807>At SEGA Corporation, we utilize generative AI as a support tool for developers, aiming to provide better content to our users and enable developers to focus more on creative tasks. We have used such generative AI support tools during development of Crazy Taxi: World Tour. No AI was used in reference to the performers in the game.
ALL I WANTALL I WANTS'ALL I WANTYEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH
>>740648807>Gameplay looks like shit>Full of AI SlopI thought Sega was making a comeback, but they're happy with continuing to fuck everything up. Wonder how much AI they're going to end up using for other projects like Sonic or Persona.
>>740652647Hopefully. I doubt it will happen, but even as a casual fan of Crazy Taxi, this just looks extremely off and a really really poor showing for a classic game being remade.I'm sick of lazy cashgrab remakes.
>>740648807>bring back Crazy Taxi just to turn it into garbage with AIcool
>>740648807That looks fucking horrible.
>>740648807the dude playing it looks like it never touched a game in his miserable life
Crazy Taxi was never good
>>740648807Looks boring and kinda shit
>>740653258yes it was but it wa sbecause of the dozens of mini game slike bowling pins and challenges not the shitty sanic base game
>>740652521>>740652506you guys are such retards you don't even know how AI is used in gamingthey ask for a billboard design and then copy while improving it they don't ask grok to make the entire artstyleevery company does this now sega made the mistake of admitting it
>>740651175anon don't do that it creates mustard gas!!!
>>740653629if u cant be assed to make a billboard then i cant be assed to buy the game. simple
Anyone here played Crazy Taxi 3? I only ever played the first two.
>>740653629thought and care should go into making every assetif a dev is fine with half assing it then im not fine with paying for it
>>740653697okay but don't speak like you know anything about game dev, just stop talking about crazy taxi and move onwhy are you obsessed with talking about things you hate?
>>740651352It's 4cuck what do you expect. A weird collection of cathartic impotent rage everywhere.
>>740653771i like to post
>>740648807Is crazy taxi actually a fun game to play for a long period of time? I remember it being at arcades, and the novelty of being at the arcade with a steering wheel made it fun for the 3 minutes you played. Didn't realize it was an actual console game as well
>>740653725I have vivid memories of playing it at my friends house and we got stuck in the grand canyon
For me, it's Simpsons Road Rage.
>>740653987>Is crazy taxi actually a fun gameNo.
>>740649280That's wrong anon, stop falling for clickbait. He didn't have a suspended license, he actually never had a license in the first place
>>740653987its a highscore game so you kinda gotta be into that. theres a lot of technique to learn and you can start going really fast if you know how
>>740651352complaining about the gameplay is fine especially since it looks like something easy to fix but this ai shit is so performative it hurts these faggots have never touched a crazy taxi game they just crave attention>>740653987well it's an arcade game i don't think it was made with you sitting there for 5 hours in mind but the new one definitely is
>>740653987its an arcade game so if you like arcadey 'jump in and play for ~15 mins' games then yes
>>740648807Looks like slow ass.
>>740650692It looks much better here. OP's webm shows a snippet that doesn't use boost at all so you don't really get a sense of speed. It looks like how someone would drive if they just picked up the game for the first time and didn't even bother to press all of the buttons to see what they do.
Played the first one last night for the first time for an hour, it is pretty fun but I thought the destinations/passenger would be random while it isn't. Seems like the type of game where you need to make a plan beforehand not one where you can wing it and get a high score
>>740652449its ue5
>>740648807I'm just assuming it'll get an Uber Eats mode or some Porsche ad. They aren't showing it yet but I can see it.
>>740654240i think personally the most "planning" i did when i played was just being strategic about which people i picked up. if i wanted to stay within an area i avoided green passengers like the plague and focused on orange/red riders
>>740648807Unironically looks worse than the goofy parody from Yakuza infinite wealth
the only thing they need to do is give us camera fov options it's too far out
>>740648807>simpsons hit and run but boringphantasy star didn't die for this
>>740654513The whole thing is that it's better in Yakuza because it's not the only thing you're doing in Yakuza, where Crazy Taxi is going to need to go through some lengths to make this worth even $40
>>740654574so Simpsons Hit and Run?
>>740653771NTA but I would say because we want it to be good and soulful. it's upsetting when they butcher mechanics and cop out on assets>>740653987Yes. learning the tech and getting better runs are the highlight of this game. it becomes highly addictive once you're hooked in to it.
>>740654240It's easy to play it safe and keep picking up there same people in the same order and experience pretty much the same stuff over and over, but over time you learn which passengers will take you to different places and try to achieve the most playtime and get the highest core you can, but also you can't just waste time going for them all time depending on how much time you have left, so you have to decide if it's worth the risk. Generally when you're playing at a higher level you're doing things that are a lot more risky and may end up wasting or saving you time so effectively it starts to feel more random every time you play.
Idk man the speed looks the same it's just the camera
>>740655608>playing gina (the worst cabby)>not boosting at alloh nononono
>>740655662Well yeah that's how casual gameplay looks just like the clips we've been shown
>>740655723i want to see the crazy in crazy taxi if youre trying to sell me on it not the milquetoast casual baby bitch gameplay, though i doubt the full game gets any crazier
>>740651352>Stinks like trolls here.
>muh aiDon't care. Still buying the game.
>>740655789The assumption is that if casual gameplay looks the same then "pro" gameplay will be the same you absolute fucking retard. Are you capable of thinking further than what you're shown?
>>740648807crazy taxi but if ue5 slopfest
>>740655608the cab NEEDS to be shaking and rattling like this by the time of release. they have a whole year almost to fix this.
>>740648807Our boy Suzuki's in
>>740653987The fun in this game is getting to know where everything is and mastering the boost/swerve/etc. mechanics to get really high scores.
YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH
>>740653987It's a zen game. It's one of those games where you master the controls enough after X hours to go through the motions. Like for me, Space Marine 2 filled this hole. It's not a particularly deep game, but I have 1200 hours in it since release.
>>740653987Do you enjoy sex or masturbation?You don't just do It once right? you do It again and again even if its the same thing every time right?Crazy Taxi is the same thing.
>>740648807Needs:-Much more punishing collisions!! Dude is punching through traffic not giving a damn.-Camera lower to the ground-More color and contrast, and nice details. It's understandable that asphalt and sidewalks are grey, but much more can be done to make it visually appealing
>Sega now ripping off a ripoff of their originalgrimhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vPe0WLSuGJU
>>740650692>5 continents>NA, SA, Europe, Asia are obvious shoe-insSo is the last map gonna be Africa, Australia, or the most kino potentially, Antartica?
looks like every other UE5 game ever made and it will probably have random stutters and require upscaling. this will be crazy track in 2014 sega hire this man. at least the music seems cool from the trailer
>>740658082idk wehy I said crazy track instead of crazy taxi no cap
>>740650692Night and Day timecycle was planned for Crazy Taxi 3 but ultimately scrapped due to a lack of time so the Game ended Up with having 1 day map and 2 night maps.Glad they are finally implementing day/night in Crazy Taxi like they wanted 23-24 years ago
Sega literally can't stop winning.
Insane that max gaslit SEGA into thinking crazy taxi could make a profit in 2026. ts gonna flop so hard
Is he right? Did E33 being a success tell studios that using AI In any part of their games is a-okay?
>>740648807Looks like AIbecause it is
>max
>>740658869Fr fr no cap on god
can the AI niggers make another thread no one sane gives a shit
>>740648807There's a reason why games like this are dead and burried. Kids are going to watch their favorite streamer play 30 minutes of this, watch the exact same gameplay loop for the entire time, and decide it's too boring to play. I'll be shocked if it sells even 1 million copies despite SEGA's entire marketing push for it. Maybe 500k.
>>740658920I don't know why anyone thinks they're going to fight it, AI is inherently corpo and people are shocked that corpos are using their own tech for some reason
>>740659107Idk man I think all the FUCKING ARTISTS give a shit.
>>740659151so no one sane, go back to your deviantart furries OCi'd be mad if there was AI music or characters or taxis but there aren't
>>740659151this is such a retarded hang-up NOBODY gave a shit beforehand but people are emotional trained lapdogs now
>>740658920Yes, before this it was zero ai allowed. Next they will start creeping into more area>Placeholder asset can use ai>Minor asset can use ai>Random npc dialogue can use aiThen a few years later>Game story is generated by ai>All game asset is generated by ai>DLSS 6 can ai gen real life graphic from greyboxing asset
>>740659151I'm an artist and I don't give a shit.
Tick tock segasnoys...
But wait, why didn't they use GenAI to save money for their SUPPAGAME instead of cancelling it??!?
I'm going to buy it twice.One on PC/Steam for my 5090and the other one for the Switch 2 physical
>>740658920It will always be okay, we already have a thread where E33 haters get BTFO >>740650638
>>740659329Super game wasn't a singular 1 billion dollar game but rather a collection of revivals and high budget games.
i hope nobody thinks they actually give a fuck about the game and aren't just resurrecting buried dead IPs to experiment with AI on, no losses because barely anyone played this shit to begin with
>>740648807SEGA couldnt find one footage of an impressive new map in what is supposed to be a world tour.How does this sound promising.
>>740659420This has been debunked multiple times. The BIG GAME was a singular title that we never got shown before it was cancelled.
>>740659476Kill yourself retard.
>>740659329They estimate supergame ai dev cost and server cost + GaaS update cost will be more than what they're going to make
>>740659476Proof?
>>740659140They will just put lots of memes and references in the game and it will sell millions just like yakuza 0
why arent they making a new pso game that's dark and aesthetic and with anime babes again like episode 1/2, not this trash
>>740659456>one footageESL
>>740659554Because ngs is still printing money for them.
>>740659516When they announced that it was cancelled, it was made clear that it was a singular game.The idea that the Big Game was actually several came from an ad they did a while ago where they showed off modern versions of several games, including Crazy Taxi and the new Jet Set Radio, but there was never any proof that it was multiple games.People also speculated that JSR was going to be the BIG GAME but we've been shown that recently despite big game being cancelled, so they can't be the same thing.More than likely, the big game was some sort of GaaS looter shooter that they've cancelled because someone at SEGA saw the writing on the wall.
>>740659554This one is made for people who actually play games.You can play any shitty mmo with SLOW ASS GAMEPLAY on pc pr a sony movie game right now.
>>740659576oh no, i didnt say one piece of footage. anon First Retard Language couldn't understand
>>740659617when the new hitler trad cath mexican groyper monarchy kills all transgender with a specially designed virus then ngs will make no money because nobody will be buying scratch tickets anymore>>740659656it adds to the soul, especially when you get good gear and are able to finally nuke rooms. new pso games are just adhd roll slop benchwarmers where you erp all day
>>740659773Thanks for confimring you were incorrect.I don't know why you're so upset, just be correct next time.
>>740659107Im gonna pretend youre the black passengers and not pick you up in the new crazy taxi
>>740659554>darkWhy are you seeking a dark edgy version of PSO that will age badly. PSO can get brighter
>>740659897no. one footage is bound to be correct in the next 200 years.
>>740659918it used to scare me as a kid especially episode 1 when you read all the logs of rico losing her mind and then I touched all the pillars and after so long of playing I finally got to the dark falz area and it turns into hell I had to get my brother to take over I left the room the first time
>>740659958I said >you were incorrect "Were" means the past, it is a descriptor of events that have passed, it can not be used to describe the future.Thanks for confirming you are ESL, again.
>>740660023its gonna be dark by default of being a hack n slash, doesnt need to get a dark aesthetic, thats what new games try and fail.
>>740660081I wasnt incorrect, I'm saying that your now-argument that I was incorrect is in fact actually incorrect and will be irrefutably counter-proven in the next 200 years.
>>740660283>I wasnt incorrectYou literally were. Why does this fact upset you so much?
>>740658502That's how all remakes should be, adding stuff not removing it. The fact that the RE ones are claimed as good when they removed so much shit is baffling, this game looks like it doesn't remove anything
>>740661349I don't consider this a remake, honestly. More just CT4 since it's going to be doing a lot more than simply having arcade mode with the old first town or so forth.
has the FOV is too zoomed out for one.That Unreal engine look.Half the SOVL of the original, less colorful and lively environment.The camera doesn't have that feeedback of whiplash like original.looks a tad lame and boring.But it all depends on the price.
>>740661802>Half the SOVL of the original, less colorful and lively environment.Have you not looked at the original in a while? It's pretty drab besides your cab (variably by character), the grass, sky, and some colored buildings or stone terrain, relied a lot on the actual game mechanics and pedestrians for any pop. There's pretty long stretches of mostly 90-95% gray and white on your screen depending on your route. Not to say "day piss filter" is really much better for the new one, as it washes colors together more due to modern global illumination bullshit, but it's kind of a trade off.
>>740652449Because they all use the same engine.
