The first sequel skatowaniu Shift feel totally disgusted and annoyed. Many of the announcement and pre-release material carrying a heralded new product quality, or at least a breath of fresh air in the genre of racers. Unfortunately, the grim reality of everything had brutally verified. Only now I see how great sense of humor are gentlemen with slighty Mad Studios, who have tried their product compared to Forzy, or Gran Turismo and kept at the full res. The following review presents the purely subjective opinion (because as we know, objectivity does not exist) and as a huge fan of racing, in the face of such words as "sets a new standard," I have to approach the Shift 2: Unleashed with a very critical point of view.
Most reviews, with whom I have contact begins with a story, possibly a long introduction to what, how and why are they in the right direction. In a word - boring and sztampowo. Expecting the same thing? A button, here sypnę with thick tubes and begin to weak elements that have clearly not played in the 2nd Shift You creating quite the same flavor and delving into the more text you will find the advantages of this production, which undoubtedly also can indicate, but this time they will go for dessert.
whole game going on the computer, because there were unforeseen difficulties in the supply of Xbox 360, and I could not wait any longer with the firing of this title. I have the impression that a final, official version the devil and he covered his tail, and developers have released something in a hurry previously stored on your private laptop boss. Why is this game is so horrendous hardware requirements? In order not to go into the specification of my scrap, I will present the situation vividly. Men across the Oder River from the studio Crytek could optimize the code so Crysis 2, that is fired at me smoothly on extreme detail (when the cat came out of the bag, a banana out of my face did not leave for several hours) and the Shift 2 is suffocating and choking on an average of added anti-aliasing. What is there not played? But on the basis of the above example - can you? You can! Solved the bitterness of defeat, swallow saliva, I Shrunk the details of the lowest and tried to soak up the "gejmplejem" because binding alone does not make a spring. Except that here comes on top of another problem. The appearance of this title is not adequate for the power it needs. Even on maximum settings all the borders on the category of good with a plus and it's hard to talk about the beautiful racing game. It is nice, the environment is reflected beautifully on the body of each vehicle, and the effect of the setting sun can blind, but in fact there is no rainfall jaw. The first impression is a comparison ocierało Shift 2 to ... Grida issued three years ago.
Accustomed to ride on the wheel, pulled out of the closet my beast, I heard described - simulation, immediately comes to mind fun using all fancy. Unfortunately the initial good impression perfectly screwed up drift, which probably thrown here by force, or the result reached by the wave of popularity following the exploits of Ken Block. With a circle, it is unrealistic to control the car and drive any route. What is similar to fura that before few minutes ago we won the race, now sliding on the ice like a blonde in socks. Even worse, setting the vehicle side, the corresponding sense of gas and for good measure by a skillful countering bordered on the miraculous. I am aware that my experience in the real driftowaniu is very poor, so I decided to sit the wheel of a person riding sideways on a daily basis. After several attempts I heard - as they are terribly spieprzyli! This game is designed to provide "fun". I want to enjoy this pleasure, and not silica on empathy in the real driver of the car, where the philosophy of the drift looks notch or otherwise. I did a test on the keyboard, but in general, any attempt to play the keyboard in the Shift 2 passes at the goal. The only controller, which I was able to revel was ... Pad! There, using the analog triggers fairly easy to enter the car into a skid, then a scoop of control of the drift, but would create a simulation in order to ciorać in it to crash?
tempted by developers to create new quality glue. Coming up my flattering Car touched lightly on the right side of another vehicle and ran with it suddenly on the shoulder, and after a while the band. What's worse, despite many attempts, I could not for nothing, "peel off" from his rival, who wanted to get out of it the other way and pulled me behind. In principle, all the bumps that end result. After several seconds, finally managed to somehow break the bond between us, and we set off on his journey, but at this point, the whole damn race went, because the chance of victory fell to zero. Speaking of which, is once again in this text I will ask the question - why opponents are trying so reluctant to push a player with leadership? When we are on the second or third place, they can divide and even tripled to overtake a car but after taking my driving suddenly pokornieją. Not in the minds of them then any madness, unless we made a fatal mistake. There are exceptions to this rule, like the fight with Darren McNamara, a lover of retro pony, who in his old car he put so much of modern technology, it is impossible to overtake him without tactics. When after some time in the first race I took the lead, tried with all my strength to take me around the bend, because the line had cut in his way. Unfortunately, this affliction affects all the "masters" wheel-throwing players to challenge. They are better than the rest of the unnatural rate. In this way we get an adrenaline rush, but after a while it puts into annoyance.
pompously announced by the creators of the revolutionary view of the driver's helmet was to change the view of the congestion associated with the player and add the game more spectacular. In fact, the whole camera to anything is not suitable. I prefer to treat it in terms of interest. Yes, we see the outskirts of the helmet (with high quality textured material inside), but it is limited visibility. Before each turn of our ward looking in his direction, making the entire head with the helmet goes for example to the right. Seeing this, immediately push off either left or go straight losing orientation and asking where is the front of our vehicle. It is known that at high speeds we have to decide in an instant. For a long time I tried to find in this view of the positive aspects, but unfortunately I think that the normal game, it is not suitable. If you want to win (after all, do not go for recreation), I recommend camera to the bumper or bonnet - best reflect the feeling of great speed.
I gave vent to their emotions, shed a few buckets of frustration, I now turn to specifics. Let's start with a general sense of the whole game, that is, what is it. We start the race down our ability to model the first part - depending on the outcome of the game will automatically adjust the difficulty level and adjust the business model. Laudable and interesting solution - the more that we are going white GT-R'em. Then we get some money and a personal trainer named Vaughn Gittin Jr., who leads us through all the races serving valuable guidance for the route. We buy the first bust, and we get about a dozen career ladder, after which we climb up the win consecutive championships and achievement experience. Under the microscope, let's take the first of these elements, namely an overview of the game.
Like most American films, and FPS, and here we are initially perceived as a "zero" in the world of racing to the corpses of enemies soar to the heights of the automotive fraternity and gain recognition in the eyes of society. We take part in various races. There was given to the ordinary occupations include allowing a particular class of vehicles, where we must pay attention to whether a bust is assigned to a category. In this way we obtain for example, "Contemporary C" in which we can meet the challenges of completing three laps in Monza from the accompaniment of ten opponents. We also have a "eliminators" in which for any money in the world, we can not go to the last position for 30 seconds, because otherwise the entire audience along with the coach burst into laughter. These races Advertising where to get a higher class car and try to feel the atmosphere of consecutive tournaments to unlock. Then the rivalry with speeding the time at which alone measure not only the lap record, but also a vehicle previously assigned automatically. Usually give a quick fury, respectively tweaked and painted in racing typical patterns. I can not forget drifcie, to which I would prefer not to go back and endurance races, which in my opinion, a bizarre mistake makers. Imagine a ride with a horny fifteen players for twenty laps after a long and winding road, where one mistake can make the difference of the victory, all involving the simulation of damage and elite control of the car. It sounds fascinating, but in fact makes you want to throw the wheel on the floor. Before the various challenges we watch a short video from the participation of real racing driver, a specialist in the field, which introduces us to the whole event. Reveals important information about the championship, provides guidance to the vehicle, and each time has your ride in exchange for his ass kicked.
The Winner "events" receive a large sum of money green, the more difficult it is to them a tournament, and gain experience nabijając skill bar. Thanks to our ward becomes more pro, and also receive these points for such things as the ideal path of the journey, perfect cornering and instant start. Poślady squeezing, we can quickly develop a very high level of expertise. With successive cyferkami get stickers, additional types of paint for painting fur, a lot of money, and every ten "levels," even a car - already modified accordingly. What's more, thanks to gain access to new championships and pniemy up in the race hierarchy. Of utmost importance here - as always, the number of dollars on your account, because before we buy another league autko allowed to take off. A good car is not everything, it would have to tune and replace some guts to pierdział no longer so in first gear, and before the war began to howl like a lawnmower. Here comes expanded with the help of a workshop, where we exchange a lot of parts are classified into various categories. We can install a completely new engine, better brakes, lowered suspension, make nitro along with the turbo and put into metal tubes. Sounds pretty standard? Listen to this! Consider the serial filter wysokoprzepływowy, integrate the head collector, add the High Performance cam, modify the ECU software, mount the differential adjusted for race two, or put another High Performance flywheel. Any such interference with the construction of the vehicle increases its power and performance, and thus - class. Jumping to a higher (for example, from A to B), we can unwittingly eliminated from the next tournament, so you should keep this in mind. All of these improvements making fun bar "wypucowania" fury. If you exceed the appropriate level, then for a small fee of one thousand U.S. dollars we apply several factory package. The best improvements possible for the ride, including the addition of the body of a four-meter wide, three story spoiler and fascia replacement cockpit Boeing 747 This car usually gets a few hundred horse more, faster by a few seconds faster and has much more torque. Therefore, the ride stops, and starts to fly. Putting 1,250 horsepower under the hood of the old BMW M3 E36 meant that any attempt to drive the car passed the point. Once the fungus kiego me something What costs so much money, and it is useless?
This naturally not everything. Mietek muchomorka from mushroom and opened the paint shop where he offers free repaint any vehicle. To choose from - the color. Literally. Not only did we set ourselves a specific hue and saturation of color is yet to determine whether paint is to be matte, glossy, candy, pearl, and chrome can. For this we make stickers that they either glue or choose a complete package ready oklejenia fury usually ending overcoating it to a completely different color, and adds hundreds of different types ad producers. In an exchange of paint, we can put other wheels. Good business is a whole bunch, at least as well known as 5Zigen, BBS, Enkei, HRE and Team Dynamics. In addition to the appearance also sets the number of inches and you determine whether your vehicle will be on the fest, or with the class. Choice of wheels is like the choice of footwear is of paramount importance in the overall settlement.
This may finally time to ride! And no, wait, wait even different models of vehicles! And then types of damage. Yes, this really is a lot. Here, too, come (please do not associate myself zboczuchy!) The substance of all options choice. After the bloody hell do I beat between each option, since after a few races all boils down to throwing meat to the right and left? What's that got the novice mode, normal, experienced, professional and elite, as the change disables one or two style options - show the right path of the journey. Although essentially the same facilities for beginners offered little - we can help braking and steering, or automatic dismissal from every corner and assistance in overcoming the winding tighter. The best fun we get the last of the modes. Yes moreover, established artists, and everything would be alright if not for the fact that I write is peering from a negative point of view. Launching basic driving model, each cart will complain that the backside like a drunken waitress in a bar, shoddy, and nothing can change that. No matter whether we drive an old Mazda, and fast Viper, and a second car would behave similarly. And what's worse - the brakes in this case they forget what it was created. But the manual that is becoming increasingly important that even a slight touch of the assigned function into it ends up landing on the bar. Someone wanted to bow and did a good job. In fact, the best proposal is the normal mode with any personal modifications.
time raise the question of damages, praised and appreciated throughout the world. Many times I have heard described - you want to properly break down bust? Play Shift 2! This time, I must agree. That's right, I managed just massacred my car that it was wrong scooter. I wonder only a few elements. First of all - why, in a time when the only damage I check the engine, then after rolling if I can not continue to go? Is the body affects the speed of the engine and its operation? Even better, that by choosing the complete destruction of a vehicle is forced to twist an fikołka, and this ... After a while he stood on the route and wanted to move out again! Live - not die! So far the tire of the issue, how is that going RX-7 engine in front and banging into the fence near the rear of the car lost both the race ending, and the two raced head-banging packages and the obstacle (silnikiem!) after a while I return to the route? That's all for the elite and the full damage! This is only a simulation! Lest there be that the sole purpose of this text is to find errors in this excellent game, napomknę that the same effect massacres each crib done excellently. Body parts fly over the asphalt and the audience, bands and draw up wginają, walls knocked out, and the same fury loose windows, wheels, spoilers, bumpers, bonnet and have powgniataną plate so nice, nice to look that up.
time has come to start here and unfortunately we see another flaw. Initial sequence of presenting all cars, mechanics, and around half-naked ladies is very cool. But only the first or second time. Later, after the next and the next reboot, you can get a tour going crazy, as we see exactly the same thing for several seconds. If these girls do not even have a square ass ... Damn son, I want to start quickly, because the rage before the restart is making itself felt, and here I further blazes. Sure, a great theme - this time we will hear many tips on how to pass various corners, where to add the gas and what to watch out for. I wish I had thought of the function - skip. Okay, let's go! The first impression was extremely positive, because cars do not slide as much as the first installment of the series, although the ideal is still a lot missing. However, there has been significant progress. The same model running (Normal mode) provides a lot of experience. Without much of a problem will feel the difference in the conduct of Corvette and Aston Martin, and a big success. The rides are fun (for the time) if he's not przykleimy the opponent will not throw us unnatural, or not przesadzimy with mechanical tuning. Developers have provided the possibility of a launch telemetry, which is an extended preview of the vehicle on the road. The interface becomes hell hampering visibility graphs and bars and the number of informing the player about the state of the car. We will see pressure on individual tires, overheating, and is used the number of horsepower, speed of the engine and gearbox, the number of laps, number of opponents ... Cyferek which does not measure. Superb choice for the geeks, for a normal player at best as a curiosity.
But most importantly, a place where we fought battles for virtual cups. Those found over 80 guest artists, although it seems to be playing less. We will visit the streets of Tokyo, London and Miami, and pośmigamy narrow and dangerous corners of the German Nurburgring. Naturally, in addition to the aforementioned Monza, Dakota, tours in Dubai, the Riviera, Shanghai and Silverstone in different varieties. Since I do not know all the arenas around the world, but unfortunately I will not be able to tell whether any of the available seats and touches of originality is not the equivalent of a real object. I only know that Le Mans is missing and Tsukuby. While looking at endurance races, including 24 hours driving definitely fall off. Slighty Mad Studios are up for it with warm words for the environment details. In the last part of the Gran Turismo often for items Simple roadside grass was used, and flat pack the audience, here, in turn, we see a little more. These houses, tents, plants, pretty, although only three, not four-dimensional tree. Apparently nothing, but pleased. There are also long-awaited racing at night, which to my surprise - I have to boast. Seeing only the glow from stage lights and reflectors, lights on the roadside, and a red glow on the brakes, the adrenaline jumps several lines up. Such struggles seem to be much faster, more effective and require much more concentration, but also provide huge deposits of fun. Although as is known - is now standard. So why creators do not go for the blow and threw the changing weather conditions? I can not understand it.
Shift 2 has 130 vehicles to choose from, which at one thousand in Gran Turismo 5 produces a volley and very nasty donośnego, demonic laughter. Well, even if they skip all the standard ... But anyway, enough. In Forzie choose from among 400 3, Hot Pursuit is the whole 66, and toddler Racer eight, but the fact remains that, in Shift 2 as befits a simulation - it's missing a few more ... set? Gentlemen, to work, to model and apply the pay- Appendices to 20 $ for one! Will sit behind the wheel of the Porsche 911 GT3, Ford Mustang, Mazda RX-7 and RX-8, Viper, Corvette, BMW M3 E36, Mercedes 190E, Dodge Charger, the Bugatti Veyron, McLaren F1, SEAT Leon and then fly the same brands - Acura, Alfa Romeo, Audi, Bentley, Lamborghini, Lancia and a few others. Contrary to appearances - is the pick, but where to get hajs all of this? These more luxurious, or "exclusive" rides cost a fortune. And here is more or less U.S. dollar is worth as much as in reality. So vividly present - for a passage in the higher classes of racing you get $ 13,000 (for first place), and The Veyron costs ... 1 million 700 thousand. I have not even started to collect, though I support the sentence of the fans - get the challenge and what to do with that money. Unfortunately, I have an objection to the majority of vehicles - in the specification after tuning is clearly outlined at the maximum speed, for example - 911 GT3 is 311 km / h. With no money in the world but I can not propel the vehicle over 250 and nothing seems to be nitro or route downhill. More does not want. Why afraid?
Now, in turn, will change the overall climate of the text. Let the gentlemen from Forzy Gran Turismo and learn from the EA, how to create a fantastic sound effects! Music has always been high, but what made the motor noise, accidents and various abrasions zakrawa a masterpiece. You can hear when I throw a supercharger, nitro makes itself felt whistle nitrous, tires squeal when cornering, engines roar, rattle, and thump, depending on the vehicle and modifications. It's definitely the best thing Shift 2 has to offer. Perfectly sound shots from the exhaust pipe, and the player practiced ear will assess whether the number of revolutions per minute without looking at the tachometer. In the background przygrywają Notes of such artists as The Bravery, 30 Second To Mars, Biffy Clyro, Rise Against, or Switchfoot. And because they did not want to be masters of the EA to spend more pieniążków the licenses, they decided to each of the staggeringly huge number ten songs mix of at least four different ways, so that the player is not bored to death. Were it not for the fact that the selected high-class performers, the whole decision zjechałbym manufacturers.
What else do I want to brag? Expanded AutoLog! In this respect also a breakthrough, particularly in relation to the Hot Pursuit. The new system is truly a brilliant motivator for screwing the results and improve the performance of the car. And here for good measure a whole expanded by further components. Thus, we revise the previously stored photos and replays of the trips all the friends that we can judge for good measure, we will invite to the race, see the records of routes from the region and around the world, read the latest news and snooping automotive group profile of a gentleman. The contents of all the interesting information there, such as a career completion percentage, game length, number of kilometers of racing, the level of experiences, the sum of cash acquired and the amount of fur in the garage. In addition to these goodies, we also have recommendations in recommending style races that are still drove. A trifle, but thanks to the climate produces participate in the life of the community. And there is nothing more than turning rajcującego fierce battles bumper to bumper with a good friend over the network and improve results by hundredths of a second lap.
inexorably come to the end of my, as usual, parszywie long argument, and so that probably no one can fully taste. However, it is worth mentioning with several flavors, we get along with the game. First of all, at any time we can see all the previously released video sequences, where the masters of the steering wheel presents us with the next stages of our career. Porobimy bryce photos each, using available tools. We can rotate the camera, zoom in and out, and I do not know kiego fungus, slow down its movement. It recently habitue simulators - Souvenir photos are included! Do not do without minus, after all, if I had not typed it here, I would not be together. How I suffer from a painful Babol, which I am not able to remove. After the election Mazda RX-8 and any of the track, the game loads up ... and reads ... and loads and load unfortunately does not end at all. I can see a wonderful display showing the route from the ideal trajectory of the journey, but it's me in the long run spring.
announce to all and sundry that the only multiplayer licked and I miss even a few hours of play enough to be able to judge properly, but now I see that it provides a much more fun than single layers of conquest. For the developers have prepared several modes of play, such as duels drivers, races or "Old vs. New "where the modified copy of the retro cars ass today poskramiaczom highways. we ask the big question - what in the end is the Shift 2?" I consider it a little as the hole becomes clogged, which the market can not find his own place. PC owners can take advantage of R-Factor which is the simulation of a much more favorable choice, fans got a small pad of Gran Turismo 5 unquestionably better than the EA solution, and supporters of the only right, green console are Forze Bill 3, eating breakfast Shift 2 with tires. elect Rally drivers racing dirt arkejdowcy turn grab the hot pursuit, and the real geeks simulators have long been dear to the handlebars, which tortures at the Nurburgring in production by Polyphony Digital. It turns out that much of the first reads Shift fans flew to the stores after the sequel, so Electronic Arts will arrange for the preparation of follow-up. Eventually abandoned member - Need For Speed. Frankly, in my opinion, the issue Shiftowi 2 reviews of 9 to 10 mesh, there is no logical justification. Neither is a true simulation, not a typical arcade game. Long thought of the two in our rating scale, and guess what? Two are paramount for scoring and AutoLog should be 100%, but this game has some other advantages, So go three. Unfortunately Shift 2 bored like books by Paulo Coelho. The forward implication is what is important, but the fun is not read.
copies dupala What?
Listen to the roar of these machines, feel the smell of oil spilled and burned tires, oślepcie wylądujcie the sun and on the bar after the application of 1300 horses under the hood. Dupala back here with a broad selection of the tuning range of mechanical and good-looking appearance and improved factory. Do not forget Autologu remember about multiplayer, I have before my eyes all routes with a large number of details and nice surroundings looking bust. For volunteers thrown telemetry, acquired the real masters of the steering wheel, the game added to the climate and collected hundreds of quotes car geeks, greeting us at the loading screens. And what besides? Scoring, or crumbling like a cannon turbo, nitro hissing, howling engines, creaking doors and bending the sheet! That is what the Shift 2 can be proud. Well, well - to admit that the modifications to the engine produce noticeable results, and our fury thus gain more energy.
Pauk What sucks?
posysa whole game is awful I started playing again after a long weary. You pass a couple of races on a hopeless powściekasz drift, you will discover that three years ago saw this picture in the Grid, you can see how your car sticks to the enemy and then fly with him to the gang, and eventually explode the loss of two minutes to master the event. Nothing came out of szumnych announcement, as the Shift 2 will beat the current leaders of the exhaust species, simulators, and more - is unclear under which category to submit the solution. Linden marched with a small number of cars, not eliminated by the end of feelings sliding on the asphalt, poorly optimized, and threw all of this useless camera from the driver's helmet. This to brag? Slightly gentlemen - let me over for a year or two years, and now no longer spitting out a new host running NFS - The Run, because in my opinion should remain with a series of his best roots.
