I find that the sense of speed doesn't quite match up to what the game tells you are doing.
Is it deliberate so that the faster cars are easier to handle?
Thank you very much for your feedback.
The sense of speed is a bit reduced compared to what you could expect because of several reasons :
1) The roads are quite wide so the game is still playable and you can recover from small mistakes (we're not doing a rally sim here, where roads would 1.5 times the width of a car).
2) We have chosen a realistic Field Of View. Many games are cheating to raise the sense of speed by exaggerating the field of view, but we hate that and we don't like fish eye cameras as a pilot view (we think it's bad for the immersion at the end to cheat on the camera).
3) At the moment, you hardly feel when you're using the boost. We'd like to add more special effects to emphasize the boost ignition and to work on the sounds as well.
4) There's an improvement that needs to be done in the 3D engine to improve the display fluidity. This should improve the sense of speed as well.
But this sense of speed should be increased as well with the release of the Group 2 and Group 1 F-Jets.
I swear that when you'll fly up to 500 Km/h, you will feel it !
