    Edit: - A few people have mentioned stutters in the video so I just want to clarify - those aren't the game and weren't in my rendered video. As mentioned in the review, things run at a pretty consistent 30 so I don't know what has caused the stutters I'm afraid - possibly the compression and upload to RUclips? Just wanted to clarify. Thanks. Glen
    What is your favourite racing game on Switch (of any kind - doesn't have to be a rally game). I think mine is still Horizon Chase Turbo. I absolutely love that game. Glen

      Bought it ten months ago when I made the comment for $4. Played it maybe an hour total. It's not a horrible game just not my style and probably not good enough to hook you if you're not into rally car games either. Honest impression it wasn't worth it, but $4 is no big loss.

    The biggest downside with porting graphically advanced racers is how much worse they look than what they would have needed to. Baked simplified shadows, good looking 2D vegetation models, etc. is far better than just forcing muddy LOD objects up close to the camera and terrible shadow resolutions. I mean, look at a game like Dirt 3. It runs great even on a toaster, and although the sacrifices are quite big with low settings, (like the car shadow being static) the game still looks really attractive. There's one thing of porting games directly, or having a art team helping out adapting the fx & assets (not just downgrading). To be honest, I think companies should open the door for the community to supply improved simplified assets for their games.

      Switch games really need their own asset pipeline and a dedicated team with the resources and willingness to make changes for that particular versions benefit. Unfortunately that is more costly than taking an existing build and hacking and chopping and crushing it until it barely fits. Visual clarity and smooth performance are more important on a 5-6" screen than unnecessarily complex models and shaders that need to be butchered anyway.

    For all those looking for controllers with analog triggers to play this type of racing games I've discovered that 8bitdo via their software allows to swap the right stick and trigger buttons. I saved that setting on the second profile on the controller. Using the first profile on the controller I set the right analog stick to accelerator and brake on the game controls menu. Once all the controls are set they way you like load the second profile on the controller and you have analog triggers for accelerator and brake. I know the 8bitdo pro 2 and ultimate controllers allow for this software mapping option. Happy driving!

    @pound_cake7296 Год назад +13

    Man as far as switch ports go this one I found was really good! Not having analog triggers made it hard to control the throttle. I ended up changing the throttle and braking to the right stick (up for acceleration and down for braking) then I change me the zr and zl buttons to shift up and down gears and found that way better. That way you can better control the throttle and braking power to the car and I found it a lot easier to control👍🏻

      It's because of legal reasons. They legally can't use analogue triggers unless they pay for the license. They clearly chose not to as let's be honest, 95% of switch games just don't use them. That's why the last analogue controllers were the Wii Classic controllers.

    To be honest, a more fitting port for the switch would be a mobile game like CarX rally. The switch could handle the graphic fidelity much better, and the mobile controls could transfer well. Rally simulation games are not meant for a portable console that is focused on fun, simple experiences.

    Having just played 8, 9, 10 and Generations, 8 is by a very wide margin the best. If there were a way to get the newer cars and stages to 8, it would stand alone. Incredibly, I thought Generations - the newest one - was by far the worst. You would think they would work OUT the bugs going forward in a series but instead, they just added MORE bugs along the way.

    I am a huge racing-game fan but I am not gonna purchase more racing games for Switch as they are basically a giant let-down for me every time. And most likely it is not even the fault of the game-producers but just Switch being what it is. Yes, I do care about the graphics. Yes, it bothers me when objects just "appear" or re-render when I am close enough. Yes, I am bothered by static shadows or pixelated shadows. Yes, I am bothered by no-antialiasing and by frame drops. The only game that I am kind of satisfied with is Grid, all the others that I own... not so much (GC:U, GC:U2, NFS:HS, WRC8, GP Moto, ..). And the thing that drives me nuts - no analog trigger on the joycons (or on the pro controller...). This console was simply not made for racing fans.

    • @Darknight0681
      @Darknight0681 2 года назад

      They actually CAN’T do analog triggers for legal reasons. Last system to have it is the Wii Classic Controller, and that’s it. On top of that, from my experience only one or two types of games really benefit from that, the rest lose a bit of playability as depending on how the active zone is set on the game, it’s very hit or miss. It was like this on the GC as well, and it’s one reason that outside of games that was made around it, it only proved to be a detriment. Particularly with something like Capcom Vs. SNK 2. Typically end up buying third party controllers to get around the analog triggers anyway.

If the next switch doesn't have analog triggers I will never buy another racing game on a Nintendo system. It's borderline unplayable as is. It's great on Series X and PC, horrid on switch.

    I might be late to the party, but the game performance is shocking on this port. They are wildly inconsistent and it is hard to put up with. It's both disorienting as it's constantly changing, and makes it difficult to judge stages properly. I changed my output to 420p and got a slight improvement but nothing to shout about. I loved this game on my Xbox one(RIP) and going from that version to this is a major disappointment. I could deal with less graphical detail for STEADY frame rate. I love my switch, but any games not made by Nintendo always perform like a lead balloon.

    Edit: to elaborate I like 2D-shmups and fast twitch arcade games... If I see something suddenly pop up, even if it's static background, I will likely react to it out of habit. Is it a big issue or do you get used to it? Is it only "fake" trees or do objects you're actually able to hit also pop in and out?

  • @sergiuszwinogrodzki6569
    @sergiuszwinogrodzki6569 3 года назад

    Why the hell wouldn't they fix the popping-in shadows issue... They totally disregarded their previous products (V-Rally 4 and WRC 8) and they don't even bother about the tickets from the users. But man, this is a new product. They should at least give you a possibility to change the graphics (at least... quality mode vs performance mode). Those popping in shadows are the worst in V-Rally 4, making the game almost unplayable in certain stages. How's that that Rush Rally 3 managed to port their game onto the Switch without graphics issues? Is it really necessary for the shadows to pop in as you're driving? Can't anything be done to resolve this? Really? How's that that Mario Odyssey and Zelda BotW introduce far better graphics and frames per second due to a perfect optimisation and yet, those idiots from Kylotonn are totally unable to optimise their own game for a certain platform? Really???
