Default TOCA RACE DRIVER 3 X BOX

just received this game thru post, (purchased new from ebay) and im, slightly dissapointed!

driving the karts thru the 'open wheel catergory' and with wheel contact they dont flip like the real thing also with the formula ford that im now onto, make lunge up the inside and make contact and in the real world you would be on ya head and on the game nothing happens???

any gamers on here had same thing???

why is there this lack of realisticness???/




thanks a million


carl

Probably a good thing in a way, because if someone who likes driving games but is absolutely crap at them bought it, they would hate it as they'd constantly be upside down.

yes your right i thought of that too


but its so unrealistic...... i mean i am good at these games and appreciate realisticness so im pretty dissapointed with it!!!

do you have this game???

also thats why they have hard and easy levels, maybe the easy could stop you rolling after contact and hard level coudl be more realistic!!!

? i will try hard level tomo and see what happens

i thought it was pretty good actually but i think in the settings you can adjust the handeling etc to realistic? and it makes a hell of a difference

dotn get me wrong the game is good graphic wise and driving. but the actuall racing and damage isnt. with any open wheel formula touch wheels your in the air and maybe over, on this game this dosent happen, its like the f1 stock cars. in real life they roll so easy on this game they do sweet F.A

Never thought any of these codemasters toca series were very realistic! Get bored of them very easy. Graphics are ok a shame really could be a lot better.
Look out for Test drive unlimited on xbox 360.

turn ON handling and DAMAGE in the driving section of the options

you'll soon find yourself spinning on every corner

anyway, even on easy mode it's a very FUN game.

if youve ever played a realistic game like live for speed you'll know it's no fun to play.

i LOVED this game on the PC, went out and bought the wheel+pedals especially

i cant afford 50k to run a formula ford for year, and thats on the cheap


cant afford to kart anymore, let alone single seaters that was costing somewhere between 10-15k year

Get yourself online and play pro sim with all the realism on. Since i've been playing the game online I haven't bothered with the normal modes.

Its a cracking game, but you need to get online to get the full benifit out of it.

I play it on a PC through my normal connection. There are no charges for playing online. You can host servers yourself and have people connect to you.

However I haven't got a clue about the XBox version i.e. XBox live and all that. Sorry.
