Hey Drivers!
Today we're giving you a sneak peek at the Physics Update coming to #DRIVE Rally later this December.
Just a heads-up: this update is still cooking, so some things may shift a little as development continues. The Mac version of this preview will be delayed and will be available tomorrow, December 2nd.
We’re super excited for you to try it early and even more excited to hear your feedback! Thanks in advance for jumping in and sharing your thoughts!
What’s new in the Physics Update?
Smoother, more natural vehicle movement, especially noticeable in the CL class cars.
Improved drifting control, better slide stability and drift duration.
More realistic jumping & landing behavior.
Reduced grip on dirt and asphalt to promote more balanced driving and braking.
Improved Car suspension height to match more realistic fitment.
Improved height in Chase Camera.
Improved Motion Blur.
Optimization across the board. Textures, meshes, collisions, audio sources… little bits everywhere to help with loading and micro-lags.
FYI: Public Beta Branch tracks times won't be uploaded to online Leaderboards.
Old Suspension vs New
Old Chase Camera Position vs New
