WOW!, it`s like I was feeling I was driving it!
Anyway, this is looks really good and fast!
stevie:O
cool...and graphics looks even better than on screenshots.
I love the look of ships, they are so shiny...can´t wait for this game to be released :clap:clap:clap
Wow, thanks for posting that! I really like it. It sort of looks like a souped-up version of the Pure Delta pack tracks - that minimalist style but done with much more going on in the background here. I'm still hoping for fancier looking natural tracks (based on that one screenshot of the rocky course) but this looks great for a sci-fi techno track.
Thanks again for posting it! Actually, I'm slightly surprised you were allowed - do you not have certain conditions to your preview copy? I have no idea, just being curious!
Man O Man! This rocks for sure! Indeed it looks a bit like a Delta league based track but more beautiful. Also like Dogg said I am hoping for that rocky natural looking track. From the looks of it, it seems more floatier than Pure. Ohh, I wish, I wish it was already ....!!!
Holy Sh1##! This looks better than I was expecting. Looks like they've learned a lot from pure with regard to track design (the turns look much more gently streamlined - less impossible snappy impossible turns given pure's handling).
Bring it on!
1) it IS quite a bit floatier than purE - I hope I'll find a way to record while I am driving so you can see for yourself (doesn't Arnaud have one of these PSP2TV-thingies? maybe he could make some ace videos then!
2) I'm not really content with the tracks I have seen so far. they play quite cool, yes, but nothing really sticks out to me - they all have a very similar feel to them, nothing really characteristic (think blueridge / sebenco). I really hope there are some cooler tracks up the pipeline (longer tracks, too). but yes, if you liked the delta pack tracks in purE, you're gonna love this!
3) of course I post pictures and videos of the preview here - that's what the media gets the preview disk for! to spread info, create a hype! I am sure all the big name gamesites will have previews up by next weekend.
On the track characteristics, eL, you've sort of answered this but, going in to more, are the track styles really all that similar? What seperates them? Much of what you've shown seems to be indoor tunnels. How is the indoor/outdoor balance and are there any interesting times of day or good skies?
I will post screens of all the tracks to give you an impression in the next couple of days, once I have played some more. Out of the 5 tracks in the preview there is only one I would instantly recognize, it's called Talon's Junction, and looks like a mix between 2097's Talon's Reach and purE's Vineta K. But I haven't really dug into the tracks yet, more info in the next days!
Loved it! But again, I did love the Delta League too 8)
And yeah, it does look better than the screenshots. Loved the sound, too (lovely dub, and lovely engine hum).
Looking at the jump, I think we can see one of the "reversible track" features... hhhhm? ;)
That track section with the lagoon view is poetry.
Thx a lot posting it MArtin, the track seems to be easy with long & large straight line but also crazy corners : i like the open section ala Sol2 .
btw i am always OK for doing some good videos ;) :hyper
They have glossy ships - finally :)
Looks so nice. Can't wait to have the final game in my hands in september.
Thats looks so good can't wait for September :hyper
That music sounded good too.
I second that! A BIG :+:+:+:+:+:+ to SL!!Quote:

0:26: So that's how they're making jumps in reversed courses.
Yeah it's a different route when you select reverse if I recall correctly forward is the white route and backwards is the black route and there are sections of track only accessible depending on which way you choose to race
Exactly. There is a 'white' and a 'black' version of each track, the only thing that differs is the direction you are going (and the direction of the speed pads, of course ;)), but I didn't notice any graphical changes between them.
My goodness that looks amazing. Just simply awesome. I can't wait to play this game!
I've uploaded a new video to youtube. This time the track 'de konstruct' on phantom speed - it's BLAZING FAST!
*video removed* (sorry)
Jihaa, it's so fast. Very nice looking track. But what's up with the Goteki's wibbely-wobbely move on the mag-stips? It looks so strange! And Assegai is jumping though the track ceiling?!
Other then that it is looking so sharp and shinny!
To be honest, I think the game hasn't been fine-tuned to handle the extreme speeds just yet. Phantom is pretty much impossible to drive perfectly at the moment, but I am sure things will be perfect in September!
Possibly because it's age old preview code that, if Sony had wanted to show to the public, they'd be giving it away in cereal boxes.Quote:

That is pretty scary!, If it is was me, then I will shut my eyes from start to finish then I will ask "Am I on the finish line?"
stevie:D
nice video...but where did you recorded this? seems like there's lot of voices...you were in some pub or what? :D
all the noise you hear is coming from the PSP (maybe you are mistaking cheering fans for pub noises?) - anyway it's a crappy recording, since I can only take videos with my digicam right now. It looks and sounds a lot crisper in reality :D
dunno,but I don't think that those voices are from psp...maybe some people in your office...it sounds to me like a conversation...
Just letting you know that I removed both videos. I just got informed that this is rather old code and not representative of the final game's quality (as you certainly were aware of anyway, but youtube people might not be so smart and bash the game...), so I took them offline to avoid someone getting a wrong impression of the game.
Personally, I thought they looked absolutely SWEET already, but hey, if the final game is supposed to look so much better, I'm even more excited!
too bad, I wanted to downlad them :(
Aww, didn't manage to arrive in time. Too bad.
But I did manage to see the other vid, and if it all got better in the meantime, me is pleased :D
