+Fates 63 Posted February 14, 2003 Ok everyone.... When I'm not pulling 9 virtual G's in my F4, I'm generally on the track pulling 3 G's in my 750HP Sunday ride. Indeed, Nascar Season has started and in realife has surpassed Baseball as America's favorite sport. (IMO) Yep...you won't see any drivers gettin paid 100 million a year for the next 5 years. Anyway, Sierra Publishing has released Nascar 2003 by Papyrus just in time for everyone to get their fix of online gaming before the start of the RL Daytona 500. This game has produced hundreds of Racing Leagues, many of which give out $1000.00 of Dollars in realife money to PC Gamers that compete each week for the championship. Well I got my copy, and ODB Motorsports will be back in action again very soon. Here's some screens for the interested: Hum....maybe need to change my sig soon too....hehe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+Fates 63 Posted February 14, 2003 Improvements: Joystick Axis available to pan the drivers eyes....this is great. I use a gamepad for play do far, put if you use a joystick, you could use the POV to pan the view and see who's low or high. The Graphics have definately been turned up a notch. I even noticed that my windshield existed after a few laps....rubber, bugs, etc all over it. The crowd, track, fences everything has been incredibly detailed. I think one of the biggest improvements in the game has been the fine detail that real drivers expereince. Every Track has it's subtle nuiances. Let's take the Indianapolis Motor Speedway for example. There is a YARD of bricks at the start finish line. The bricks act like a speed bump at 180 MPH....and this has been duplicated in the game. There are spots on every track that make a car act differently....these abnormalities have been reproduced to give the gamer a more realistic experience. Let's not forget the sound....wow! I think this is definately and improvment over the N2002. Although they do have some issues with the Craetive Labs 5.1 Live card (drivers) and I've found that I've got Problems with my Asus A7v8X mobo built on sound. My problem is that after exiting the game...I still find the sound set to "Quarry" which has the reverb turned up pretty far. Surfin tonite for a fix. I'm just now beginning to see the improvements. There have been others at ODB Motorsports that follow the game a little closer then myself. I'll try to foward any questions to them... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
