[OXM] Project CARS Xbox One targets 1080p, 60 fps - Slightly Mad has "top secret" ...

Unreal Warfare · Jan 13, 2014

Some info about Project Cars from Slightly Mad Studios.

Slightly Mad hopes to achieve the coveted 1080p resolution and 60 frames a second on all platforms, but this isn't the top priority. "Our aim is always for the best gameplay experience possible and if that means 1080p/60fps is achievable without compromising
'awesome stuff happening whilst racing' then fantastic," said Tudor. "So it's the target yes, but it's something every developer has to balance nearer to launch and it'll be no different for ourselves."

As for the cloud, this is "pretty interesting and it opens up a new area for developers to explore in terms of design and technology. It might be useful for patching/updating the game but that's not dissimilar to a digital download patch that players
are already used to on Xbox Live.

"We have ideas for where we'd like to see cloud integration and those are top secret right now but I believe we'll definitely see games utilise the cloud to add some very cool new features and design components to the next generation of games," Tudor concluded.

There was also a snippet of intel on the viability of Xbox One's eSRAM - a chunk of super-fast RAM that's designed to offset the console's slower DDR3 RAM. "Our engine uses a light pre-pass style rendering approach and after experimenting with a number
of different variations we found it was more efficient to use eSRAM to hold the deferred render targets," explained Tudor, terrifyingly. "Careful use of eSRAM like this for the various render stages mitigates some of the advantage that PS4 has with its faster
unified GDDR5 memory."

Party Sevens are great, trouble is I only know six people in real life so I have never been able to enjoy one. Shame really, I like a giant ring pull....

I'm so excited for this game. It looks more and more incredible every time I see a new screenshot. Here's to hoping they implement something similar to the Drivatars from Forza 5 but with less destruction derby going on during the races.

Who moi! how very dare you! Anyone wanna buy a walkman or a transistor radio, I have a good contact!

Would buy them but just spent me money on a Watneys party seven.

So looking forwards to this game so any delay for improvements is fine with me.

I'm just waiting for the .....

"But it's only a racing game, Xbox One couldn't do 1080p/60fps if it were a FPS" .... lol

Odd thing is though, out of all the next gen games I've played on both systems, Ryse: Son of Rome along with Killzone are the best games "visually" I've seen and it's not even 1080 or 60fps ;-) ..

Anyway, there's been talk lately that Project Cars could be delayed/pushed back even further. I've been following it's progress closely and latest reports from people that have played the latest build are, AI is terrible, shocking handling, framerate problems
( on all platforms ) so I'm not holding much hope of seeing this anytime soon.
