Thanks for all of the feedback, truly do appreciate it! Do the setups they give you drive well with good speed? Setups is always a main worry of mine. There's an option to force default setup, right?

Re: NASCAR The Game 2011 - Impressions
Ok...well the first bit of dissapointment everyone. Here are some photo's of the big one. We were all concerned about too much damage, I think my concern is too little damage. As the photo is evidence of.....you be the judge.
There is literally 1 or 2 pieces of wreckage on the track, and thats it!
and hardly any body damage that can be seen. This is what I was talking about, that during the actual wreck itself, it's hardly noticeable, but afterwords...the body damage can look catastrophic.
Here is another one....of Jeff Gordon Flying through the air after a head-on collision at DEGA...you would expect to see more damage!
and here is another one of the head-on......as you can see the nose has limited at best, zero at worst damage.

Re: NASCAR The Game 2011 - Impressions
Thanks for the impressions Blue, appreciate them. Good news about the wheel as well. Is the force feedback nice and strong?
Out of interest, what's your overall initial impression after a few hours with the game? Better or worse than you hoped or right about there?Comment

Re: NASCAR The Game 2011 - Impressions
I also dove into the create-a-car aspect for a bit. It is pretty extensive, but also time consuming. If you thin you're going to whip a skin that is very detailed in 5 minutes.......fuhget about it!(Donnie Brasco Voice)
That's not to say it's done badly, or extremely limited. There are many options, and I assume as a person become's more familiar with them, the level of difficulty will diminish. I paint cars all the time for NASCAR 2003, and rFactor....and I could see the ability to create a very good car, but need more time with it.
So far, I am very impressed with the game as a whole though. A few things have been a bit of a let down, but overall, I think for 1st time effort, Eutechnyx has really knocked one out fo the park.
I still need to see how set-ups can affect a car(which I will a little later today), and spend a lot more time with the game...but I am pretty impressed with this.Twitch - bluengold34_osComment

The first game trailer showed too much damage, but this is a big let down.Comment

Re: NASCAR The Game 2011 - Impressions
Based off of my hopes for the game....I would say that it is the best NASCAR game to ever hit a console, and meets what I expected, and may exceed them after I have some more seat time with the title.
Yeah...pretty intersting.Last edited by bluengold34_OS; 03-24-2011, 03:39 PM.Twitch - bluengold34_osComment

Re: NASCAR The Game 2011 - Impressions
I wish I had not read this thread as it has me more excited then I already was.
The question I would like to know the answer to is how long is career mode? If it is multiple seasons, do drivers just not age at all? Is, for example, jeff Gordon still going to be racing if I play 15 seasons?If a loved one is expecting a baby or just had one, please read about Craniosynostosis. It is a common birth defect that can sometimes be overlooked by doctors.

There seems to be a decent amount of good sponsors that people will recognize easily. There also may be more that can be unlocked...not sure yet.
Could be....BTW framrate is just awesome...no hiccups, glitches, screen tears, or weird anomalies so far!Twitch - bluengold34_osComment
