ATTENTION TO DETAIL / RACE DRIVER GRID

[@SHDWSKII]

Highly recommend this amazing game. Having a total blast revisiting the OG Grid from 2008. What's your favorite thing about Race Driver Grid?

[@tanchek_prod]

Hey, bro, I also want you to play the other game of this trilogy: Grid Autosport! That's the most favourite game of my childhood) I think the physics here is as realistic as it should be in real life) BTW thanks for the video:>

[@MichaelOddish]

Thanks for the recommendation! I never got to play this game, and I heard it was pretty damn good! 2008 was the year I got the Nintendo Wii gifted from my sister so that's probably as the main reason.

Fun fact & attention to detail: if by chance your team encounters Ravenwest, The Radio Engineer will disappointedly tell you to give up and to: "Just aim for 3rd place. There's no chance we'll beat them, it's raven west after all." "Ravenwest has already won, Sigh.. just do your best kid, You can't do any more than that." in the opening introduction of the race. They specifically say Ravenwest because they're are the best team by ranking and earnings. Overwhelmed, Powerless, driven to despair at the sight of Ravenwest, The engineer tells you to give up. This attention to detail and what I remembered the most, I know it by heart because to me, I think that this encounter with raven west and the engineer, absolutely gets my heart going to beat them. To try to make the radio engineer proud as he lost all hope and desire to win.

[@irfannoreplys6312]

Bruh, on a drift event, they crashed into a wall and can't even fucking drift properly. Fucking Ravenwest.

[@voidrunner-616]

GRID original is the best racer I've ever played. The way the cars handle is just perfect for fun gameplay and really encourages aggressive/courageous driving. The damage model is sooo satisfying, the Flashbacks and video editor are awesome and the variety of content is too. However, one of the best aspects of it which I just haven't found in a more recent game (and which the sequels and reboot just don't seem to understand) is the, I guess you could call it; "team gameplay". Seeing your garage get bigger, choosing a team name, a teammate, a livery and colours, the best sponsorships, having your actual name and local currency being used, saving enough money to finally buy your own car for the 24-hr Le Mans race, how your team managers talk to you during and after races, beating those Ravenwest a-holes etc. Compare this to the flat, lifeless menus of other games which are just "click" *race* "done!" do it again... and you can see it's lost something significant. The racing is the main event sure, but these little things were an important addition which showcased a little bit more of the race-driver experience. Other games do *some* of this stuff but GRID had it all at once. And it was reeeaaly stylish to boot. I was kind of hoping they'd double down on it with the reboot. Bring back that team manager lady and of course the Race Engineer who always sounded like he was one more race away from retirement, maybe allow you to walk around the garage and put together a bigger team... but nah. Real missed opportunity.

[@martincolombo3986]

I just noticed in my new pc I have the same problems you had! Stuttering in the same exact places and trees flickering sometimes (I don't rememeber that when I first played it!) Gret video btw. The damage model is still unmatched nowadays!

this game is the best in racing games. it used low end graphic cards but you could still get amazing effects. i came across no racing game not requiring high to mid end GPU to play. You guys see the roatating rear wheel in the replay session, which is the most realistic one i saw amongst all racing games including those in 2022 , required RTX series GPU to play. However, this is also the last masterpiece Codemaster made. The subsequent grid2, grid auto, grid 2019 ... lost most the good things that Race Driver had.

[@Thunspeed]

Good old times free style drifting. One of the best Drift physics if not the best in 2008 and still better than some of today's games. I did enjoy Grid2 circuit race physics (1000+online races) but drift is just meh. NFS2015 drift physics is pretty good but too arcade-ish for my liking (still spent 250+ hrs with it though). I would say best drift physics imo is AC for realistic and GRID for fun arcade-ish. GT might be up there with AC but I never played. For those who never played GRID you have to.

Question: The first thing i noticed when i did my first race was that i can't turn while braking. Is that a thing of the game? Or is it bc i'm playing with keyboard and i should use a controller or a wheel?

[@Γιάννης-ξ8μ]

It's based from reality. If you hold the brake and turn at the same time you can't turn very successfully and depending from the type of brakes, the position of them and many factors you could either understeer onto the corner or even worse without abs lock the wheels and even by turning you'll just drag the car onto the wall, crash it and you'll cry. Practice braking on a straight line theb entering the corner at the correct speed without using the brakes and in racing games like the grid when the racing line becomes yellow just lay off the gas. That way you'll turn successfully . The keyboard situation means you can't deactivate abs otherwise you'll just lock the wheels due to the digital input (on-off) when pressing the key while a controller or pedals will allow you to brake precisely at a specific point without locking the wheels.
