Some of the hardcore aspects have been omitted to keep the game playable and fun for those who aren't vehicle tech freaks. Once you learn how a car handles you can adjust your driving style accordingly nailing the perfect line through every bend rather than simply making it to the finish line.īasically, the vehicles' handling creates a separate world from pure simulation driving, though the specifications are based on the cars' real-life attributes. This leads to a real spectrum of performance based upon the player's level of familiarity with the vehicle. This process allows our handling team to accentuate the drivability of each car at a base level (simply getting it around the track) while retaining the core handling characteristics and subtleties which define the real-world car. This may sound like a pure simulation, but Evan-Jones assures us GRID 2 still walks the line. The handling and overall performance were considered when a car's likenesses was included in the game. Real-world drivers performed tests when possible. No two cars break the exact same no two vehicles will respond identically in the same situation.Įxtensive preparations were performed and data was collected to ensure these details were as accurate as possible.ĭata from real-world specifications for each vehicle were collected. The team understands that every car in the game handles differently. Per Toby Evan-Jones of Codemasters, making sure each car has an identity was a priority for developers in GRID 2.
