Need for Speed: ProStreet Demo

actually unless I missread, somebody in this thread said there was 3 but like I said, I may have read wrong

 

Well I ran it on the rig in my sig, everything on high with 2xAA and it ran pretty good. 169.01 drivers. Beautiful game but the physics were pretty hard to control for me. This game reacts nothing like Carbon, I found the controls to be sluggish at best on this game which is too bad since it looks like a lot of fun.

 

the car just goes too fast for its own good + the AI, even on king, are pretty weak.

 

They don't want you losing everytime on the demo. But yes, the AI sure suck, the only thing to race against is the clock and the AI are merely obstacles.

That sluggish behaviour is called "realism". Once you get used to it, it's much more rewarding than games like Carbon. Also, the difference is a lot to do with perception, not that it's a bad thing.

 

Hey bro,i am new here!
i have a question
can my benq s41 run NFSPS smoothly with 1024x768 res n high setting?.
this is the spec:
C2D T7100
ram 2gb
geforce 8600m gs 256 mb
driver 163.69..
thanx.

 

I recommend you to update to the 169.04 driver...

Perhaps not the highest setting but medium high

Wow... You're the first BenQ s41 owner I've seen. What's your opinion of s41?

 

Need for speed ro street is realistic ???
Yes and GTR2 is a go-kart simulator
Have you have ever played with Evolution Gt?the AI of opponents is awesome,they are really bastards,they close your way and react to your driving,damn they seems alive!
More than last silly ea arcade game...that is not a game but a benchmark for new videocards...

 

my s41 is very powerfulL with cheaper budget.
this nb can play FEAR,HITMAN BLOOD MONEY,CRYSIS at 1280x800 res with med high setting.
where i can download the 169.04 driver?

 

after playing the demo for a while, I think I want to get G25 before I buy this game since it would prbably make it much easier to steer/shift/accel/decel/brake.

 

could i run it on my computer decently?

 

go to this site using Mozilla or IE, maybe Netscape. and it will tell you how well you can play almost any PC game

 

wouldn't consider it as a reliable source, imho. u'd be better off by going to this thread and asking the same question: http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=178058

what's g25? edit: my bad, it's a wheel, huh?!

 

It's never let me down before.
yeah it's a wheel with paddleshifters and a stick shift and a clutch pedal made by logitech.

 

sweeeeeeeeeeeet

 

Im running nfs prostreet demo at 1440x900 aa off, most things on high and getting ****y fps like around 20? My card should be able to handle this right? Only way to get above 30-40 is to set res to 1280x800 and put stuff on low-medium?

 

NEW: Found on NFS:U Credits to arushan on NFS:U

GAME RELEASES TOMORROW

 

Beauty

Thanks for passing that on.

 

what do most of you guys use to play racing games?
steering wheel, gamepad, mouse/keyboard??

i've never tried a racing game on the PC, so I'm curious as to how the population plays them.

 

no probs

i'm using a wheel..it's pretty cheap..it was like $20 lol..but i heard the G25 is pretty nice

 

wow G25 looks very nice. just checked out a video of it on youtube.

 

i play on my keyboard, no problems whatsoever. brings back the memories of carmageddon, what a sweet game that was lol

 

Depends, I don't have a wheel but would get one if I am interested in a reasonable realistic game. Others such as GTA or the previous NFS games can do with a keyboard.

@BigV... oh yeh, now you just need a mod to allow you to run over everyone in the crowd and randomly saturate the screen red. Of course, you also need another mod that allows you to win for doing that!

 

Personally, I thinks it s*cks as
Appart than the possibility to make your own car, there hasn't been any gameplay improvement or that much visual eye candy since Carbon ..

 

oh you'll be suprised what ProStreet has in stock for you

 

I notice some improvement with new 169.09 driver.

 

FPS wise? like by how much? it's a little laggy for my to run at max and 8x aa with no oc..lol seems like that aa is starting to work xD

 

Interesting 1UP review... It's the only review I found so far that points out positive things about the game instead of the other way around (ie. gamespot and IGN review)...
