car flipping (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NjOaJgzZv6M&feature=related) around 2:30

i am pretty sure flat tires and blown engines are a part, though i dont have links for them right now

It's a strange one the old damage request's,even myself like's to know what will feature but there is nothing more annoying than having someone smash your car up online.

Perhap's it's just a comfort thing,we like to know the damage is there but don't actually like it happening to us when we are gaming.

Hmmm... collisions + damage + Macau

You have to wonder if the saftest place would be at the back of the grid watching the rest of the field destroy itself ;)

yea, i dont think that we'll have to worry about caual gamers that llike to wall ride and crash into your cars to make it around the corner like in pgr because they will probabloy find this game boring and increadibly had.

Yes a lot like early days of Forza,

2 things you can do about gamers who will race badly in Race Pro and use you as a corner aid:

1: Complain, have a shouting match with them, or better yet come onto these forums and compain to people you've never met, most likely result in a locked thread and getting into more frustration

2: Learn to drive around accidents and predict driver's movements

#2 is great but it doesn't protect you from the idiot who shunts into the back of you at turn 1. You brake correctly and take a safe line but they have no intention of making the corner - their only objective is to take people out.

I'd never want to race with collisions/damage in a ranked match for that reason.

Doesn't Evo have a system where you get black flagged if you crash into the back of someone? I'm sure they'll carry something similar over to Race Pro if they think it's worth it.
nagge

Yep, the flag system is implemented in Race Pro, although I fear that it will be a option if you want to use it or not.

Even in 1 player career mode i will have the flag system switched on,nothing wrong with learning different ways to brake and avoid cars,it all makes you even more skilled.

Just checked in Evo and you can set Full, Black-Only or None for single player and MP races. Not sure what it was by default but I seem to remember manually setting it to "Full". Pretty sure it was on Black-only by default.

oh good!.. the dreaded black flag!... that will definately deter most to try and cause major pile ups... i hope.... i like the idea of full flags finally being integrated into a 360 race game.. something that FM2 forgot to do..... not sure why... oh well, this is why Race Pro looks like is really has kicked it to the next level... maybe even 2.... :)

I was at that race, it was surreal. British GT Championship 2002 Oulton round. Massive downpour and thunderstorm came out of nowhere and pretty much all of the cars were on slicks. That all happened around the hard braking zone out of Hilltop going into the Knickerbook chicane, some of the guys lost it coming over the crest. They had a restart in the end minus the casualties.

Check out Hunter Abbot's Ginetta accident at Oulton last season!

so do you think there will be more parts and pieces flying after crashes in Race Pro?... not just large pieces that never get any smaller... imagine if you hit bumpers that split into many pieces... panels falling off... lol.. complete mayhem!... like at the first video at Oulton... oh man, that would be insane!... LOL!

Unfortunately nope not with the Race engine. Example from GTR Evo: below is a 150MPH argument with the armco at the end of the Curtiba turn 1 run-off. Plenty of black smoke but no cracked windscreen ;)

Different engine though. That was using Gmotor, and Race Pro will be using Lizard (Simbin's own) so you don't know what they might have put in.

Then I look forward to stuffing an Aston Martin into something at 150MPH to find out! Thought it was going to be a port with the same engine tbh so it's good to know that things have moved on, the demo videos never really do games justice for the 360 games, it's only when you get to see them on your tv that you appreciate how good or bad a game feels.

(hmmm not it would be a shame to wreck an Aston ;))

Well, I don't expect them to be doing too much with it on their first go with it. I mean, they've probably had enough work getting Race 07 and GTR Evo up to scratch with it. Let it be said though that their next PC games will also be using Lizard, as will the previously mentioned PS3 game (untitled) that they intend to make.
