Need For Speed: Carbon.

[tarey_g]

^^ If u want to remain a fan of the nfs series , i seriously suggest to avoid this installment . The more i play this game the more i hate it.

UBISOFT will gain the top game publisher position not only becase of the great games its delivering but also because EA continuosly crapping each game they are provide.

couldnt agree more, the damn truth it is.

EA is only on top because the sports titles it sells.

Man what settings are u playing it on? u have 6600gt na? I have to keep the resol to 800x600 other full settings with 2xq aa and filtering trilinear to keep the game smooth.

Is there any tweak which lets me set the motion blur to appear on really high speeds , i am totally pis$ed with motion blur on in the whole races from the start. I dont want to disable it entirely but want it to appear at high sppeds only,or when applying nitrous boost.

 

[Hells_Fury]

you win the boos races and u unlock the cars

Most of the good cars are unlocked at the last stage of the game that really sux(Nissan Skyline, Lancer EVO 9..)
So end up playing most the game with a DUM car.

I think abt 65% of the game i played with Mazda and then moved on skyline mclaren

Ok fine..It said i have unlocked the Eclipse GT. Now how do i buy it?

 

[Third Eye]

Yeah i have XFX 6600GT 256MB and playing it on 1024X768 Resolution 2X AA with almost high settings( shader qualiity=mid,motion blur off,vsync off)

Go to your safe house menu -> select cars-> choose the car you want to sell. There is an option to sell the cars in that view.
My question is entirely the opposite. How and from where can i buy cars?

 

[hellrider]

Go to car lot, u can find 'em in the world map.. there u can buy the cars!!
If u can't find markers for car lot in world map just roam in the city till u find one!!

 

[Hells_Fury]

Well the thing is, i did roam around quite a bit in the city, but still did not find any car-lots. I guess ill just have to try againl.

^^The car lots are UNLOCKED when you progress in the game. (i think ).

I am playing on shader high , blur on , 2xq aa with 800x600


edit: Lokks like everyone is pis$ed with the motion blur thingy in nfsc

Hopefully, NVIDIA will have released an updated driver by the time this game ships which fixes these performance issues and makes the game far more playable for geforce 7 series. Until then however, the best advice we can offer is to turn off the motion blur feature (which in all honesty you should probably do anyway, given how distracting it is), which should give you a far

Source - elitebastards

The game's appearance looks a bit different to NFSMW, not dramatically so, but the motion blur in particular has been ramped up and might annoy a fair few people - luckily it can be turned off.
- Koroush Ghazi(Tweakguides forums)

I just finished playing around with the demo and man, it's unreal how bad this game performs considering how awful it looks. The buildings/road textures are horrible, they're so low res it looks like they slapped some motion blur on a 6 year old game and then imported some new car models.

I am playing on shader high , blur on , 2xq aa with 800x600

How much fps you are getting in nfsc ?

I am playing @ 15-30 fps......

 

[tarey_g]

Why are u playing a car game at 15-30 fps ,makes no sense.

I am above 30fps usually , sometimes hits a low till 25. Even if i lower the settings further , the game hits lof fps of 25approx . Maybe my 1 gb ram is not enuf.

 

[Third Eye]

Because i wanna game to look gorgeous......

 

[tarey_g]

U have turned shader detail to mid , that takes away the good looks a lot. I'd rather lower down the resol then sacrificing on details.
But this game is sh1t and very high on resources. Even on the lowest setting i get random hiccups in the game.

So guys , does the Story goes exciting (MW like) or did EA cped that too, like the gfx.

 

[hellrider]

There r lot of cinematics here, but I still didn't understood a thing abt the story other than occupying territories!! And Indeed motion blur is pain in the a$$, screen gets blurred even at 40 or 50kmph!!

Story is decent,not a bad game....

Re: Need For Speed: Carbon, next in the NFS Series

wow guys the amazing ..................must be near 100mil easy!!!

I agree that piracy is a bad thing but look people get LPE (Low Price Editions) of books in countries like India, Pakistan, Afghanistan etc. And these LPE versions cannot be called pirated. If LPE of games and applications are also made available for countries mentioned above where buying power of an average man is not that much as compared to USA, Europe etc. Guranteed Piracy will be rooted out....Otherwise it's almost impossible to convince people to buy softwares at prices way beyond their reach.....

------------------------------------------------------------------------
