Posted on July 14th, 2008 in GTR Evolution
After Atari’s visit at PC Games, their rival magazine Gamestar now had the chance to try GTR Evolution. And once again, Christina Surer is on site, again proving her questionable driving abilities.
The positive side is that we get some more Nürbugring Nordschleife impressions while Surer and the magazine writer have obvious problems keeping their cars under control. Click the image below to get to the video.

Team LMT has released their first ever public mod for rFactor, bringing Ferrari's F60 Formula One car and the 2009 version of the Singapore Grand Prix to the simulation. Driven by Felipe Massa and Kimi Raikkonen, the F60 was Ferrari's take on the new rules introduced prior to the 2009 Formula One season. Despite being equipped with the promising KERS system, the car failed to make an impact on the world championship. Along with the car comes the 2009 version of Singapore, Formula One's first ever night Grand Prix. The team's first public mod for rFactor was helped by many modders who ...

Compared to “our” Nordschleife, in my opinion every straight looks way to long. Does anyone agree ?
Details are poor and the cars seem to have an extrem amount of donwforce.

@ tbc21: i guess we’re wrong then. because SimBin got exclusive rigts to data from the track.

In terms of straight length – appearance varies with field of view. You can be certain that Simbin have got the length of the track right. In terms of downforce you don’t know what mode the game is run in – its not likely to be fully realistic physics with novice drivers.

Amusing, from 2 minutes worth of video (maybe like 40 seconds of which were fully focused on the game) you guys have been able to deduce that the track is completely wrong, the physics is off, and that the multiplayer is shitty. Well done.

Let’s not draw ridiculous conclusions from a short video like this. For example the fact that there’s two people racing in this video says absolutely nothing about the game’s multiplayer system. Granted, Simbin multiplayer solutions haven’t been as good as rFactor’s, and since GTR Evo is going to be very similar to Race 07, I doubt we’ll see any improvements in this respect (or any other for that matter).

..mmmh…track is rly different if compared with rF 2.2a version..
i’m agree with tbc “Compared to “our” Nordschleife, in my opinion every straight looks way to long.”..
But, if Simbin have used real CAD data..well, probably this version it’s closer to real version…. :smile: ..i’d like to see same video with different FOV..

No, they didn’t get “exclusive rights to the data”. They got the data. People have had that data before.
