Nineteen71 Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Everyone's been talking about how realistically the cars now show damage, for example, the cop car slamming into the truck, causing that indentation to the front hood/bumper, but I paused the trailer right before the car hit the truck, and it almost looked as if the damage was there already.. check it out and tell me what you think: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guess Who Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Hmm... I checked it out. I think your right, I wonder what's going on here. Nice find Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P.T Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 (edited) Nice find. It's obvious that there has already been some damage dealt to the police car already, but the question is, 'has there been more dealt after the car has hit the truck?' After watching the trailer again, personally, I think minor damage, if not any has occured after the police car has collided with the truck.

richieopera Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 They obviously haven't finished that yet...! So they swapped in a model of a already creashed police car. You can clearly see from that screenshot and from the source HD video that the car does not gain any damage from hitting the truck. The likelihood: This is a feature that they will be in the final version and they're ready to show it off, just didn't finish it in time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K^2 Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 You can clearly see from that screenshot and from the source HD video that the car does not gain any damage from hitting the truck. Woah. Stop right there. Yeah, the car is somewhat damaged to begin with, but it does get more damaged as it hits the truck. I just went through the trailer frame by frame on a 42" screen. There is a single frame transition where you can clearly see the hood deforming further. It is still a single-frame event, so it is nothing fancy, but the car does take damage. Prior to filing a bug against any of my code, please consider this response to common concerns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YukiEiri Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Can anyone figure out what the mark on the police car says? I see it as Vopt/Vont/Vupt/Vunt??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ceedot Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 I'm guessing it would of, since its airborn and tilted. It must have hit something to start doing that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You talk big behind a keyboard. But, to clarify what he's talking about, if you'd take the time to watch the trailer, you'd realize that he's talking about the EMBLEM on the hood of the cop car. As in, what MAKE the car is. Go back and look, then type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Ok, if you would view the trailer frame by frame you would notice that there's an emblem on the hood..) And the emblem is what I was talking, could not remember a word for it earlier so thank you LaMigra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G MONEY $$$ Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 The police cruiser is already damaged but if you look closely it's only some minor hood/front bumper damage. The damage resulting from the truck impact was definitely not already there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YukiEiri Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 The police cruiser is already damaged but if you look closely it's only some minor hood/front bumper damage. The damage resulting from the truck impact was definitely not already there. Nope.. Unfortunately the hood is very badly crumbled up before hitting the truck. Onlything that I can see is the whole hood moving a bit backwards but the basic shape is not altered. :-/ So it seems that the crash with the truk does nothing (basicallly) to the vehicle. :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kallaN Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 I think the car gets damaged by the truck. http://ww2.beffo.se/upload/fil/?fil=rkw4d3oubz5g.gif (click on it to make it bigger) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snake Without a Tongue Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 I'm glad somebody posted this. I was so charged by the realistic damage and then... the Zapruder in me took over. R* is the king of shenanigans like this. Showing something to give the impression of something else. I guess car damage won't be that smart in GTAIV after all.

crux989 Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Thats pretty interesting. The truck's front suspension reacts to the squad car right when the impact occurs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XBOXLOVER Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 I think thats the damage that made it slam into the truck in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slamman Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 It's Euphoria in action,... Note the headlights for the truck are absent.

parry Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Ok so i just went through this on my ps3 frame by frame, the car does indeed get more damaged from the truck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helsinki Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Am I the only one here who's not that excited about the new damage system? I thought the cop car didn't take enough damage from such a violent collision... Although, considering the somewhat cartoony style of GTA games, I didn't really expect it, either.

I agree with your point, the car doesn't sustain no where near the amount of damage that it should have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NinjaJones Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Dangit its starting to look like the crash modeling is preset like the other GTA's...i really hope not though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nineteen71 Posted December 8, 2007 Author Share Posted December 8, 2007 Well I'm starting to agree that the damage there was caused by what made the cop car go up in the air in the first place, and then was even more damaged when it hit the truck, although it should've been damaged further, more realistically. Still an improvement over past GTA Games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gta-guru Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 The cop car does get damaged more when it is hit. It definetly isnt any real-time procedural damage though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
