Looks like Piboso needs to get TTB up and running but GPB isnt even at V1 and still has core crashes and physics problems, or have you got better physics and a more stable system planned for TTB Piboso........................will GPB ever get a chance if TTB is so important?

Im really looking forward to it!! its about time.....

So the future of bike games/sims is actually looking bloody good now  ;D 8)

Hopefully not ''too'' arcadey...

still like the sound of TTBikes more though..  ;)

I think that is a hope in hell right, Bob? Lol.

Any big investment requires big money, so of course it's going to be arcadey as that's were the big money is, unfortunately.   :(

All I can say is that MotoGP 2015 and RIDE must've sold a good few copies for a company to invest money like that on a bike racing "Game".  ::)

Why don't the investers contact Piboso and support them instead of supporting companies that are not capable of creating a true racing sim? Why?!  ::)

hmm yeah it will be arcade.. they made ''motorcycle club''  >:(

I don't mind playing motogp etc its good fun with some good players.. but motorcycle club is too far into the arcade zone for me.. if that TT game is anything like it, it will be a grand waste of time.

I really hope piboso makes TTBikes happen.. but to be honest, it sounds..... years away  ;D ;D (no offence)

It will definitely be targeted at the "Game" market and not the "Simulation" market.... In the same way "Ride" was..... After the initial, "WOW! Look at that!" eye-candy syndrome, it will be the same dull and boring kiddies game with no depth to it at all. No worries!  ;)

this is guaranteed to be just another nicely-wrapped shiny kid's game.
if it's anywhere near being realistic physics, i'll eat someone's hat.
like others, i'm thinking the main interest for just for the track itself.
i really like the track we have for GPB, but if someone could find a way for it to stop crashing the game just about every time you crash the bike, then i might actually get to learn it a little easier.
yeah, yeah, i know....learn not to crash the bike, yadda yadda, lol   ;D

65% of people are visuals = graphic will sale your product. On this screenshot i see blended texturing and instances for foliage -- key features to make environments more complicated. And with all this PBR rendering it makes the road feel alive. ;) Saying this I dont have any hope about the GPB will be changed (because Im still dont support using own OpenGL renderer instead of using third-paty engine, Unreal for example. At least for small developers)

As a reference, this is how the real Gooseneck corner looks like:

Please check out the inside kerb shape and size, the road width, the ( missing ) road lines, the asphalt and vegetation colours, the lighting...
It looks good for a fantasy game, but not realistic.

Hmm, yeah some effects are way overblown (as usual in recent games), yes there are some details a bit off compared to reality and yes, unless proven wrong, I don't expect anything good physics-wise.

But visually I have little doubt it will look way better than GPB. Most of the visual issues (bloom, shininess, flare, hdr, colors) could probably be fixed in no time.
I see good vegetation (unlike GPB X-shaped trees), nice fences (irregular in shape), nice details overall ...

We will probably be able to laugh at physics, but mocking the visuals sounds a bit like the fox and the grapes ...

Criticizing GPB's graphics engine is like beating a dead horse.
However, no one here compared GPB to the TT game ( except you ). Also, the fact that the TT game has better graphics doesn't mean it cannot be discussed.
Graphics aside, the main problem of this game seems to be track accuracy. Which is no surprise. Anyone who ever tried a 1:1 replica of a road track knows how it feels to sim-ride at an average speed of 200km/h between two very close walls. It's an experience surely not suited for a mass market game. This is why, probably, they didn't even bother laser-scanning the Mountain Course. It would have been of little use, if the track model needs to be deformed for gameplay reasons.

Its an other console game, imo the TT graphics in this shot is just ugly, I prefer an old engine without effects at this shit. GPB with some real time reflections, realistic lights/shadows and some better animations will be just great, anyway we aren't here for the graphics.

Totally valid point. So let's bash it for that instead of for "unrealistic colors" or "too much flare".

Why?
The unrealistic and over-the-top effects are an integral part of the package, and they definitely deserve a good bashing.
The graphics is not just cosmetic. It sets the tone for the whole design. For example, it makes you wonder if they will include pitstops, or sidecars.

Yours for only €9.99 as a day one DLC probably ;D

Theres been a bit of talk about the solos but nothing about the sidecars so maybe they wont be imcluded... they're goning to miss a trick if they dont include them...

Playing devil's advocate here, I could say that a TTIoM (or Ride2) fan could say the same about GPB.
I'm definitely not a fan of the exaggerated visual effects (bloom, flare, dof, motion blur), but saying "look, too much flare and wrong colors" is a bit like having a Hornet and telling the guy with the R1 that his under-seat compartment is smaller.

And I had a Hornet for quite a while (but no R1) :)

I don't see how the screenshot could possibly give you any clue about that.

Anyway, I guess we're all kind of sure here the game will most likely be crap overall (at least for people that enjoy GPB), no big news.
It just feels weird to see you in despair when TTIoM is announced and then totally relieved when a bad-looking screenshot is posted.

But if it gives you extra-stamina to finish that bloody KRP list of misc release tasks, then let's have more TTIoM screenshot posted :o)

Again, graphics is not just cosmetic. It sets the tone for the whole project. It is extremely unlikely to have a good, realistic game when the art is so cartoonish. A realistic graphics, while no guarantee, would have at least indicated that they were trying.
You keep putting GPB in the mix, but it's like apples and oranges. Nonetheless... If the GPB graphics is giving away something, it is: "there are no time and resources to dedicate to visuals, because the whole focus is on the simulation, at least for now"  :)

P.S.
Those screenshots are not a relief. They were pretty much expected, given Kylotonn track record.
Kylotonn is not a competitor, so no despair either.
Just discussing a much anticipated TT game like any other motorcycle enthusiast  :)

You probably won't like the way I 'twist' your words. You are correct that the graphics for a project somehow set the tone for a project, they are to some degree the billboard for the project. That is why you should also try to maximize what is coming from your engine (I think that your graphics are quite ok when put to the maximum): Use great textures only, take advantage of good lighting/shadows (especially on cloudy conditions the lighting in your game looks really dull (unrealistically dull) - in real life I still have more vivid colors and better shadows even if the sun is not beaming away), make some post-processing/filters available (to be manually adjustable for the user according to taste), allow for some focal distance processing for replay cameras which would make it more realistic as TV cameras nowadays make use of this stuff and last but not least make for some nice TV style presentation (TV presentation cameras, good TV overlays,...) - this all would add exceptionally to the immersion and would create the illusion of real-life racing events.

Because eventually that's why we play your sims - to have the illusion of really being part of a practice, race etc. And next to the physics, the presentation of the event in a way we see realistic events on TV adds exceptionally to the immersion. And at the moment your sims lack much of this. And new customers could probably think similar to what you stated (I quote again):

is this post turning into a rant towards GP graphics ? :))
how many years Sector3 Studios/Simbin (RaceRoom , gTR, race 07  creator) used mediocre graphics but nice physics ? about 12 ? until games like AC, PC, etc came along with decent to awesome graphs
I came here for a sim (that has no substitute to date), that looks better from the past and right now has real issues regarding other stuff than visuals :P
if you still like NFS series, buy that TT  ;D   {https://youtu.be/ePpPVE-GGJw?t=1m41s (https://youtu.be/ePpPVE-GGJw?t=1m41s)}

AC for car sim, DCS for plane sim, GP for bike sim  8)

Agreed that the "gooseneck" picture looked like a bit of an oversight and not very accurate, but it is a wip after all.
Looking forward to it nonetheless.
I think it's worth a punt, if just for a look, even if it's lacking in the physics dept.   :-[ :)

Just to give some more info. I've just played the early demo of this at the TT.

Will have superbikes, 600's and sidecars.
Track looks great, has been laser scanned.
Developers have focused mainly on getting the track right and are now tweaking physics.
Fully customisable controls at realese inc rider movement etc
Early physics are very rough and buggy so hard to tell but seemed arcade based at this stage.
Will be out before Christmas.

Will be out before Christmas.

And what is your overall opinion on this game? Has it potential or is it shit?  ;D

Just to give some more info. I've just played the early demo of this at the TT.

Will have superbikes, 600's and sidecars.
Track looks great, has been laser scanned.
Developers have focused mainly on getting the track right and are now tweaking physics.
Fully customisable controls at realese inc rider movement etc
Early physics are very rough and buggy so hard to tell but seemed arcade based at this stage.

Does "fully customable controls" mean support for multiple controllers simultaneously (like in GPB), or just free mapping for one controller?

Overall it has potential but as I say it's a very early build physics wise.  John Mcguiness is advising them on it.  The bike didn't move around very much.

You will be able to map the controls as you wish.

As always, the first clue the physics will suck is the roll dynamics of the bike: it looks like it just rigidly follows your input.

yep, Max, that was the main thing i noticed. it's just another 'on rails' type of ride, no bike response to any bumps or undulations in the road, as if the road is all just super smooth.
they can pretty it up as much as they like - thanks to PiBoSo, this sort of physics has utterly spoiled these games for me. i'm a GPB physics addict, if i have to admit it....  ;D

Hmm... It'll be very interesting to see how good their bike physics will be.... Will they go for arcade physics or real physics? They didn't actually say, but we all know that games companies overhype the accuracy of their physics when it comes to actual real physics simulation; usually we end up with a well dumbed down version of actual realistic physics. So looks like we'll have to wait till Oct 2017 to see what they actually come up with.  :)

But the track is definitely looking better now from the bits they've shown in the video.

From the videos i dont think there are any physics at all, the bike doesnt even seem to be in contact with the ground so a lean-left, lean-right simulator at best.

However, ignoring that it looks a lot of fun, learning the course, and beating your times. Just one more go. Hehe.

HI KG!

Onboard ride looks ok, track may be narrow but is still nice.

What i wonder about ( for a few seconds) is the casual gamer - can he be bothered to spend months learning the track? Or maybe there's a super arcade mode where you just bounce round the obstacles without falling. :D

Looks better than the last vid so is looking better and better.

Yep i am giving this game a chance!

LIDAR based so they'd have to go out of their way to get the widths wrong.
It's maybe just a high FOV making it appear narrow.

Nice video.... The game environment looks amazing though as has been mentioned, it does look a little narrow to real life? But I see the bikes are still acting very arcadey with very little actual real physics movement/forces in action? Maybe it was just in a base arcade-ride mode? But yeah. Very impressed with the eye-candy.  :)

Good point about the possible FOV Groove.  ;)

Problem is, despite being so arcade, the game will probably be very difficult for the average user anyway, because the road is so narrow and long ( hence hard to memorize ).
Who is this game targeted to?
Average gamers? Surely not, too difficult and boring.
Motorcycle enthusiasts? Definitely not, the bike dynamics is way too arcade.
Diehard TT fans? Maybe... But isn't the audience a bit small for such an expensive project?

Title: Re: TT game announced...
Post by: KG_03 on August 31, 2017, 07:22:40 PM
Thank you for all kind words. I agree with PB. This game will not have a big audience as the track is difficult to learn. What I see in Ride 2 is that people rarely choose road racing tracks. Most of them prefer to ride on race tracks and very few ppl want to race on Ulster GP or NW200. From the videos that I have already seen I can assume that the whole track will be divided into segments and it will be possible to race on certain parts of the road. Lets not forget that developers promised imaginated tracks that will be available in game so it won't be only one track. Lets hope it will be so.
Good that at least there is possibility to have a highside. Wish there was also a possibility to loose front and have a lowslide. I constantly try to push the developers through facebook to know something more but they stopped replying to any questions connected with game. All I know is that we can not count on any early demo or early access :-( So only we will get final version. If I find something more in the internet from recent Gamescon  I will write it.

By the way, thank you PiBoSo for GP Bikes. It is a motorcycle game where I finally found what I need.

Single IoM TT track will be boring after some time. I suppose from the videos that are already in youtube that the whole IoM track will be divided into segments, and player will be able to ride whole track and only a part of it. Will see. Ah!

Honestly after playing GP-Bikes for a longer time I start to be less enthusiatic with simulation physics for wide audience motorcycle racing games. Don't understand me wrong. Since I bought my first motorcycle games (old Superbikes Challange by Milestone) I wanted more and more realistic physics, but recently I have noticed how frustrating can be crashing all the time after smaller mistakes - this leads to dead multiplayer lobbies and playing offline is boring after some time. More over riding motorcycle is more based on all senses and a gamepad or steering wheel is not enough to make it realistic (DD I really look forward to a motorcycle handlebar) There arent many ppl like me and you guys who are stubborn enough to spend time and practice one track over and over to perfection. As I see from playing motorcycle games for past few years ppl who look for immersion or realism in motorcycle group are in a very small group. From my long friends at steam list there are only 4 who play onboard without any assists. And unfortunately companies need to earn money, also because to buy official licences. So I am very very happy that PiBoSo is making GP Bikes and I will support it as long as possible.
However I still expect from developers to give more realism to their games and offer wide array of help and options but as we can see making a physics properly takes a lot of time.  I am big opponent to disabling the lowsides that are supper grippy grass that is very common in all recent motorcycle games I have played ... except GP Bikes of course :)

They still have 4 mibths to improve the physics. As soneone said at steam platform forum the physics were criticised by John MacGuinnes. The game didnt represent the thrill of riding IoM TT and it was the reason why developers postoponed the release date. If its true... I dont know but from what I see on the video the physics didnt change since the last video from Gamescom 2017.

It looks absolutely beautiful. I have heard they are going to fill it with non real tracks :(

I can understand that they don't want to take away the shine of the TT course but surely they could have added a few British tracks for you to race as well, very much like the real TT riders do go and race at BSB before the TT to get used to the bikes.

The bikes and riders look out of scale, a bit too big. Compared to the houses and even the road width, unless they only drive Smart cars in Ireland, those roads IN THE GAME don't fit two sedans.
I think it is because of wide FOV that changes the perspective.

I know it won't be as realistic as GP Bikes. But I like a lot the engine sounds, sense of speed and graphics of course!. The onboard camera is looking like gyrocam on a tank :-( Don't really like lack of headshake depending on speed and wide FOV. I hope it will be as an option.

And here is an interview with developer:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=94MP1UoN6Mw\

not sure from what time the cut scene videos are but it looks like the FOV is wider. So maybe there will be changable FOV eventually.

Nothing.
I follow the project because I tried to do the same in the past, so I am emotionally invested.
I post the videos because it seems that many here are interested in this game.

No matter how beautiful this game will be it still will be arcade or simcade. The balance between fun and realism is very hard to make. There will be always group of people who will not be happy with it. I just hope that this game will not fake the reality with super grippy grass or tyres with unlimited grip - just like it was/is in Milestone games.

+1 Totally agree, but they did delay the original release because they wanted to work on the physics so they were more realistic; how realistic we won't know until release I guess..... But I, like yourself, suspect that the physics will be somewhat simcade to say the least.... But let's wait and see.... From what I've seen it certainly looks the part for sure! ;D 8)

Wow that's the cheapest I have seen at £22.48. Great post  :D!

Is that site safe?  :-\

Theres not much point talking physics - I expect it to be poor in comparison but I still expect to get a lot of fun from it. Just riding a photo real IOM for a start.
I will not be disappointed as I am not pinning any hopes on it. Win win!  Maybe a nice surprise for me.

Anyway according to the release blarb it says "Even the real IOMTT riders say the physics is great"  hahahaaha!

So basically, if you think the physics is poor you don't know sh*t about it  :-X

I bought Ride2 also there, as doubledragoncc pointed that offer out on that site just before it released. They delivered the steam-code as agreed, and the payment was handled well . Besides that now you can pay with IDEAL, that is a safer method than a credit card.

Let's face it.... the riders will say anything if they are paid enough... Makes no difference to them. Lol! ;D

But I'd bet none of them have ridden in GPBikes and if they've bothered to play any bike race game/sim to compare bike physics with this new game it's likely to be Milestones MotoGP, so I would honestly say even they know jack-shit about how good race bike physics can be on a PC sim. :-X ;D

Basically I'm saying that even real riders will likely not be comparing the bike physics with real life(for them there will be absolutely no comparison if they were honest about it) but very likely comparing them to other games/sim physics they've previously known before? ;)

If the companies that make motorcycle games usually make the physical accessible to all public imagine in a game that has to go pr the public way ..

Totally arcade, but you can also make good arcade games like the Motogp series from namco.

I can accept the bike physics unsless it does not fake the reality like ultimate grip of the tires. I look forward to this game.

They need to completely change the steering system in motorcycle games. In real life a leaning motorcycle won't simply pop straight back up like a jack in the box when the rider stops providing steering inputs. This is the reason why the steering looks so jerky and unrealistic in this video.

Have you tried DST control in GPBikes? It's as realistic as your going get in a motorcycle sim.... Just need a bike controller that can use it. Lol! ;D

how can you tell theres no steering inputs? all it takes is a flinch from your reactions to put pressure on the left handlebar and the bike will react to it.. also at high speed the wind makes it difficult.. its a constant game of small corrections..

it doesnt pop straight back up you're right, but it does come back up with minimal effort. its just natural like a car is, sure it wont go into a perfect straight line; but it does naturally straighten up...
trying to simulate this is a bad idea because not everyone has a full on bike sim in their bedroom/living room.
look at assetto corsa for example, you literally have to have a wheel to play the game... practically impossible to play with a handheld controller like an xbox controller.

im sure theyre looking at peoples comments all over the place about this game, and who knows, maybe theyre here looking at this thread for things to look at as they continue development.

They've had and still have quite a long time to polish the game up since the gameplay trailer last year...

I still look forward to this game but I see that it will be an arcade racing with some weird simulation of physics...
Title: Re: TT game announced...
Post by: August1 on February 13, 2018, 05:42:50 AM
A refined version of this which takes into account the limitations of gamepads is exactly what I'm dreaming of. Left thumbstick to tip your bike into a left turn, controller rumble/scraping sound to let you know when you're scraping knee, thumbstick back to neutral to maintain the turn (in real life the rider would need to maintain a small amount of pressure on the bars to maintain the turn but it's too small to be accurately simulated using a normal gamepad), thumbstick right to exit the turn and bring your bike back up.

I'm happy with it. We knew from the announcement it would not be a full simulation game but it looks very pretty and i think even our community will enjoy how well they have replicated the tracks with all the bumps, crests and bobbles.

It's beautiful and... that's all.
On the video, the guys use what kind of controller, he doesn't seems very confortable and accel as well as leaning is not smooth. Probably a Xbox pad or equivalent.... ?

I think that we will never get the game we want. Developers know that if they make the game too hard or realistic they wont sell it.
As for IoM TT it looks fast na fun. Unfortunately I have lowered my expectations after I have noticed the tyres make a sound on acceleration and bike is not flipping over.
Title: Re: TT game announced...
Post by: Donnie on February 14, 2018, 06:19:01 PM
It looks very unfinished to me. Almost like the developers have thought the majority of players will play with onboard view so they rushed the chase cam rider animations.

It also looks like they haven't sorted the physics issues with the bike suddenly veering left or right.

I know it's hard to tell from a review video and not playing it yourself but it doesn't fill me with excitement.

Title: Re: TT game announced...

For the French video that DD posted earlier, i didn't look till the end cuz the guy who comments that is ... how to say that without being too rude...

Anyway, forget his video and specially the comments, the guys is stupid and think that this is the best hardest simulator ever.
So, actually, it was better that nobody understand anything, there's nothing to listen to.

Title: Re: TT game announced...
Post by: KG_03 on February 14, 2018, 09:02:52 PM
I watch at the videos try to analyse stuff and find out what we can expect. I am surprised that there is almost no suspension movement. The front feels stiff, the handlebar does not move (its fixed) in the model. Very weird and simplified... also the rider and bike models have tendency to melt with each other, not even mentioning that the left foot make weird movement when changing the gears.
I wish I could do a review on my own. I see that ppl making those videos are not familiar with this kind of games.

If you don't start and try, you'll never know...  ;D

When i contacted Dan and Betty at EDTracker to know better about their product, buy some in group for some French Sim players and did some videos of the EdTracker settings and uses, i had no background, but some Game Studios contacted me after to do other videos but first, that's not my life, i'm a Youtube consumer not a maker and second, the games was nothing like i play (Moba or this kind of 3rd person view in 3D) so i decline.
But i'm sure that if you are into it, really and ready to do lots of reviews (yes, they give you something but they want some back), you just need to find the right angle and attitude to make noise on Youtube.
For example, the French video that DD posted earlier, the guy is screaming constantly, like he is on hype, stupid and makes lot of noise for nothing.
And hey, there's a bunch of Dev and Studios in Poland, that could be a good start... But, you gonna have to stop taking care of others then...  ;D Cuz it's going to eat your life for ... nothing - super hard to have a regular income from Youtube or even Studios, it's like movie industry, it goes by title.

Post by: poumpouny on February 15, 2018, 12:18:08 PM
I think that the best game we could have is, the IOM graphic quality, GPbikes physics + Milestone's bike game physics with wich you could suitch from. Like in Dirt 4, you open the game, choose between arcade (milestone physics) or simulation (Gpbikes physics). With that every body will be happy. Is it that hard to make such a game for Big studion like miletsone or big ben ?

May be that`s why some people here asked to think about Unreal engine? Seems like all this eye candys not only for kids? Is it really so important to write your own 3D engine when you are master of simulation?
Anyway, from what i saw the main goals for GPbikes is solving Z-fights from trees alphas, solving global lightning and baking, more agressive PBR shading.
And im ready to buy your game again if you`ll decide to move on any contemporary game engines.

+1 Totally agree with what you've said there Reactive, especially the part I quote-highlighted in blue.  ;)

To my mind, it is a waste of development time to re-invent the wheel all the time when that time saved could be used in concentrating on the physics code alone as all the rest of the eye-candy is already there in an engine like UE4. Why bust your balls on designing your own graphics engine when there is an industry leader GE that's already there for you to use, and at a great deal for developers too!? :)
Title: Re: TT game announced...
Post by: KG_03 on February 19, 2018, 10:31:24 AM
I don't like UE4. The graphics are candy like, and for some reason it has some weird chromatic aberration on the edges of models. I've read its quite user friendly engine but I doubt that its a good one for simulation games. I personally like the curent engine with the high detailed textures like in case of Donington track. I miss 64bit version so it would allow more detailed textures.

Also in this video at 10:10 it looks weird how the bike slides...

Best video so far but speedy needs to tell me what the dude is saying lol

So the guys says at first that he mostly play car games but is interested in motorcycle games too.
Then he explains that for the technical parts of this particular games (sim, arcade or both) he is not the good guys to ask.
Finally, the only thing that i've notice that could give some thrill to the game is the fact that you can play online up to 8 riders.
On 3 tracks.
And even if it wasn't finished for the test, the TT will have his 264 corners and full length.
Graphics are not that great even if you can play it in 4K, 2K or 1080 without issue.
He is playing on a xbox pad.

Doesn't change my own consideration of this game. Crap. Sorry... ;D

I feel so bad wanting this game!!! I am so devoted to GPBikes and Piboso, but until we get GPB in 64bit we are not going to have a chance to get close to IOM TT in GPB and it is the track we all want to ride.

Sorry Mr P but you need to realize that most issues with GPB are down to being 32bit constriction of memory usage and its causing major problems as tracks and bikes require the LAA hack to be used. This means we CANT get what we want out of GPB until you go full 64bit. Its 2018 not 1998 any more and to be competetive in the sim world you have to have a stable program and not rely on any kind of hack to just run the sim with mods that keep the sim alive for us all.

Heres the latest onboard with no commentary thank god from VVV

https://www.youtube.com/v/0pwVSD3dQSo

Forget about adding this and adding that, just make GPB stable and work on making it 64bit and I think most problems will be solved by doing so.

GPB rules and always will in my eyes, but it needs to be 64bit to work.

Thanks for all your hard work Mr P

In terms of gameplay GP Bikes rizes the bar so hight that I doubt that any motorcycle game will be as fun to ride in multiplayer and in offline mode. But I really hope that Pib won't give up on developing the game despite he is alone and not game sales are not as good as the game deserves.
I recently bought MX Bikes and damn I love the game engine so much.

As for IoM TT game, not to make an off topic. I like that they added looking into corner option. Still the physics are far from good. We will see, 1 more month to game release on PC.

Just for comparison, think about how old this game is and the system it run on. Surely Piboso can do it?

I think it's fair to say motorcycle games have stood still for the last 20 years. Having played most of them I never expected the latest to have any decent physics so I for one will only be impressed with the TT game as the best Road racer available. No disappointment here.    The closest I will get to riding the IOM w00t :D it's OK to hope for the best of both physics and graphics but the track record in bike games makes it a naive expectation.

Probably the most disappointing was PiBs withdrawal of his own TT based simulator last year which, like all the other titles, desperately needs a graphical update (post processing WIP is encouraging).

Roll on more bike games, without competition we will be standing still for another 20 years stringing along a desperate community. :)

Lol, it was painfull to watch when he was talking at the start about "simulation" type of leaning and then refered to MotoGP games..., I was shouting "GPBIKES!!!!" haha.

Also the back wheel coming off the ground after a wheelie...


Also every review you find ever on any game is always made by ppl who aren't particularly good at the game... You're never able to see the full potential of a game.

and holy fuck the way the bike reacts before a crash... like what the fuck even is that?? Did seriously nobody say anything about that in the development team? ...

Dont think so. I dont even think if there is option to move the rider manually...
Anyway i still see ridiculous physics...like rear wheel sliding under acceleration when anti wheelie is on (really? Come on!) or that when you use front brake and rear looses grip the bike just slides and turns...or like the wheel is turning left or right but the handlebar is fixed...

The game really looks bad imo. I mean, I like me a good arcade game, but unreasonable physics are just awful and the game really looks like that. Despite that, you wont even have NW 200 or Ulster GP in the game, which is defineltey a let down. But I am looking forward to the opinion of you guys :)

DD as I said many times. Its not about making the physics 1:1 its about not faking the reality. The bike in game look like train on the rails. Loosing rear grip cause the bike behave like a car, also from videos I have noticed that when you brake too hard in full lean the bike looses grip but exactly the way it happens in the car - the front is sliding forward not falling. Looks like they copied some of the physics elements form their car games...

Exactly my thoughts. And DD, imo it is a little bit of a let down, if the game only has the IoM as a official track. For me, the track content is no reason to buy the game. We have one official track, if I remeber correctly, the IoM and then only fictional tracks. The Ulster GP and The NW200 are beside the IoM the most iconic road races on the planet, you can maybe count in Macau aswell. Btw. my young eyes can see perfectly lol ;D

I mailed the developer about the terrible static 1st person view and the lack of "look-to-apex", but surprise surprise I got no reply. I hate it when devs don't listen or acknowledge feedback. Been trying to get EA Canada to change the end to end camera view (so it would be in the upward direction in both halves) for years. It became a bit of a tradition to pester the developers on twitter, but never gotten a reply. I think, the day I actually get a reply from a non independent studio, I will start to believe in Santa... But when I worked as a game reviewer I got blacklisted by Lucas Arts, so at least I know they read reviews... (a gold star for the person who correctly guesses what game I gave a bad score to when I got put on their blacklist).

Yes, that is correct. I never received another review copy from Lucas Arts after that, my colleagues did... My peace of shit editor also raised the game's score from 3 to 6 (out of 10) but left my name in the review. I was on vacation and did not now it had happened until I was back and saw the magazine (yes, this was in the age of print media). Also noteworthy that Lucas Arts had bought ads for the game in that issue... you draw your own conclusion. I told my editor that if he ever changed a review I've written without removing my name I will beat the crap out of him. I was fired a week after... Worked at other magazines as a game reviewer after that but Lucas Arts still did not remove me from the black list. Used to ask my colleagues from my previous magazine to lend me their copy when they were done with their review...

Just got the game for the xbox today and have been having a bit of fun.

It is not a sim at all! But i was surprised how much fun it actually was despite the bad physics.

The game looks very nice and despite a little few bikes (2016 bikes only) and few tracks, i think you can still get a few hours out of it.

But at times the physics can be really a pain in the ass! The rear will spins out very oddly and especially under braking, you will have a lot of very weird rear wheel spins.
Also over bumps, if you go a bit fast or sideways, the bike will spin out of control.

But yeah, bad physics, good looking game and you can have some fun with it. Takes a bit of time to get used to the way the bike rides.

But at times the physics can be really a pain in the ass! The rear will spins out very oddly and especially under braking, you will have a lot of very weird rear wheel spins.
Also over bumps, if you go a bit fast or sideways, the bike will spin out of control.

But yeah, bad physics, good looking game and you can have some fun with it. Takes a bit of time to get used to the way the bike rides.

Thx for the quick review. Lets see how this game develops over time and if they adjust the physiks :D

To be honest, from the vids I cannot see any physics whatsoever to fix. Bike just appears to follow the terrain with some pre-rendered animations for certain steering/speed combinations

It feels a little better to play than to look at, but yeah, you are right, it feels like the wheels are in line all the time and when you slide, it is both wheels sliding etc. at points it feels horrible!

it is even worse handling than any of the milestone games, but you can still have fun, i wonder if it will get boring after 10, 20, 50 or how many hours it will take lol

Checked out some reviews, and they all (even the positive ones) pretty much confirmed my fears, nice track, everything else shit. Positive reviews mostly come from people who don't ride bikes in real life and think that Milestone Games are sim racing games. It's sad that the game isn't good, because from the in-game footage the track, the foliage, the sense of speed and the lighting looks really nice.

I've only seen PS4/Xbox reviews (pc isn't out yet) but I doubt that things will be different on the PC version. From what I've seen and read:

* There is no custom control options, can't even adjust sensitivity.   
* No real time weather effects, only three different pre-set conditions to choose from.
* I doubt that the track surface is dynamic... (don't know for sure)
* The bike seem to have a mind of it's own when exiting slow turns. From footage it looks like it doesn't want to stand up, just stays at max lean and follows a curved path into the wall/post/fence or whatever.
* There seem to be no feeling of what the tires are doing, no sense of rear spinning little or a a lot and so on.
* 1st person view static like a stick stuck on a roller coaster. Rider head movement is non existing. No look-to-apex.
* In 3rd person view the rider is twitchy like an epileptic dope head on amphetamine. It sort of looks like when people try to play a racing game with a keyboard.

The dream would be to just rip the track to GP-Bikes (I don't recommend or condone stealing other games intellectual property in general, hence "dream"), but as others in this forum also have said, GP-Bikes would not be able to handle a track of that size in the games current state...

Pretty much it!
Got the game and spend some hours in it. Fun but nowhere a sim or even simcade game.

My worry is how long it will stay fun, i don't think it is a game you want to spend hours and hours in.

Oh, the humanity!

Just goes to show how much pure eye-candy sells games..... Maybe part-lessons to be learned?  :)

But if we could have a bike racing sim with Piboso's physics and superb eye-candy then Piboso will crack huge sales for sure..... That's unless most consider realistic simulation as just too hard to master and just want a bike racing game they can turn on and get straight into..... This seems to be a growing attitude especially amongst the youngsters nowadays; they want the benefits of everything without putting in the work and effort to achieve anything..... sad state of affairs.... Just a growing lazy attitude amongst the youngsters of today in my opinion.... same as it tends to be the youngster gamers who seek out cheats and walk-throughs for games and then declare themselves a great gamer... They appear to have no concept of honour or what cheating is, and certainly don't have any concept of fulfilment in achieving anything through hard work and practice.... What a joke they are!  ::)

You cannot avoid the eye candy side Mr Pib, the perfect exemple is Rfactor 2, no matter how good physics they have, the reality forced then to spend lot of develloping time porting it to DX 11 and all the candy eye stuff. And the result is that RF2, wich everybody think was dead, re-start selling right now ......

+1 on that..... RF2 is reborn now they have worked on the DX11 development and eye-candy stuff and is continually getting better and better with very regular updates..... No doubt now that with it's renowned physics simulation and now the addition of the eye candy RF2 is the best car racing sim out there for sure!

So Mike SimUK has PC version and we got Hs3 working with x360ce but still need to go to Mikes and set it up right as he has some problems.

Me, I only got XBone version and could not wait for my PC version so bought a POWERA Fusion XBone wired controller and desollder gun. On first quick test with just throttle, steering and hydraulic front brake was okay but there is a massive deadzone hard programmed into the board that ruins it, still far better than a gamepad but hey

I was the first to ride XBone in TT IOM with a real controller woohoo

Need to concider getting the cronusmax plus again after I just sent it back as I think it could cure it and mean it would work on any console.

Just tried the game and the only thing I have to say is: what a waste of a beautiful track. Honestly, I rather walk around it in-game than "ride" one of those bikes... cause they don't behave like bikes! Touch the front brake = bike goes of into a tree, lean over in a tight turn, good luck straightening the thing up, meaning = bike goes off into a wall... and so on... Also, I don't have a rear brake, instead it's the clutch (that isn't even on the control scheme), or does the rider automatically pull the clutch when you use the rear brake?! I have no idea... unless it is because I have a "special" version of the game... and to be honest, I would not trade a single pubic hair for it... fuck this pisses me off, cause as I said, the track itself is fucking gorgeous and the sense of speed is great... too bad that everything else is shite... [EDIT] Figured out the rear brake thing... apparently you can't use it at the same time as the throttle!!! What the hell! Have they never heard of keeping the front down with the rear brake, or dragging the rear brake to tighten the turn?!!! Have these people ever ridden a motorcycle!?!?!?!??!?!?!??!

Nope, bcs the Suter SHOOTS FLAMES out of 2 or 1 EXHAUSTS. I watched some video from ROBO46 and it looks really bad. Oh, btw., if you are luck like ROBO, you might race 5 times in a row on the same track. Well, this would not be an issue, if there were more than like 7 tracks in the game ;D . Well, since y'all say that the game is BS, I am proud of myself that I stopped preordering games and did not buy the game :P

Maybe you can get a refund or so :)

Tried this game yesterday for about 1 hour.

Positive

- The IOM track is amazing.
- Great speed sensation.
- I like it very much... the windshield of the bikes, I will do something similar in GP Bikes.  :P

Negative

- Phisics very arcade.
- AI nonsense, they are killers and idiots.
- The sounds... above all; collision sounds, no words.
- Bike models and dashboards, low quality for a 2018 game.
- Third person views are useless... and awful, never see nothing like that.
- HUD just ugly.

My opinion:

It's definitely not a good game. But... I recommend everyone to try it.  ;D

I see your point, but in a free market sales are the collective customers demand. So according to your rationale the sales/demand would be biased and companies creating new software in that genre would be even more under the impression that customers want zero physics and only care about visuals. Well in fact many do  ::)  but it would be better if the ratio of sales arcade to sim would be 3:1 instead of 10:1. ;)

@Stouty Stouty Stout Stout. ;D

I was talking (subtly so not to upset anyone) about stealing the game. I have this old-days dreamy hope that motorcycle enthusiasts are a cut above the general rat race and stick together like brothers.  Back in the day blah blah. Piboso and PigPen smashing beers together etc.

If you did in fact, see my point, your reply means you agree it should be stolen not bought haha! Some might agree it's so bad it shouldn't be paid for lol. I think you did not see it really.

Subtlety in a multi racial forum is right up there with irony. Dangerous in the wrong hands hehe  ;)

However, I'm still mentally wrestling your point. Will no sales make them think 'damn we need to add physics cos nobody is buying it' or will they think 'it was a crazy idea there is no market, let's make a car game'.

Actually I think PigPen might think the former judging by the changes they made before release on the back of feedback. Let's hope so.

Well ofc some will go and make a different kind of game. Those are out of the picture anyhow. But those which decide to make sth in the motorcycle genre, will be more likely to go into the sim direction. That's the whole point... And un-debatable  *wink* *wink* ;D

Having arcade games like that TT game for me is like having no new game at all. For me it just is not on the radar. For me it is as enticing to buy it as it is to buy a bag of hair curlers...

Well personally I think those that buy games to support developers in a particular genre are idiots if the developer produces a crap product.... and lets face it, as far as sim fans are concerned the I.O.M. TT game just released by Big Ben is total shyiit for a sim!! Looks great! But total shyiiit... it doesn't come anywhere close to a simulation!!  ::) ???

If your going to support a developer for creating bike sims then at least support a good one so we don't keep getting all this arcade/sim crap from the likes of Milestone and Big Ben!! Don't buy and hopefully those companies will die a quick and painful death. Lol! Woohooo!  ;D ;D ;D ;D 8) 8) 8) 8)

@Bob: Very nice video mate!  ;D
But surely you can't be saying the physics are anywhere near even good? And if you play it long enough then of course you will start getting used to the poor physics, but getting used to terrible physics will never make it a good game. Lol.  ;D

If the onboard camera had more of a helmetcam vibe instead of being a tilting tankcam I'd maybe forgive the magic carpet physics and play it some more.
...but then if a helmetcam was attached to that twichy rider it'd do your head in.   :P

Track is soooo nice it hurts that I'll likely never want to play it again.  :(
Will no doubt have another spin to have a good look at the model - out of curiosity as a modder...  (seeing Project Cars 2 version of Knockhill showed me I've a lot to learn when it comes to skinning)
...but I reckon that's it for TT Isle of Man.  One lap.   ::)

I really really do not understand that kind of thinking:
"I will steal the game because it sucks". Someone spent one year or more in his work, giving up family life to have money for living and someone without respect steals the game because it sucks. This world will never be right when people think that way. The game is not perfect physics are bad but its not a reason to shit on developers. Talking to some people: how would you feel if a customer or person came to you and say "your work is shit and I wont pay you because i dont ;ike your result"

The game is not optimized well, so my PC can't run smooth to 60fps, so i dont buy it. But I've deleted this, in the past I have bought any single Milestone game because are arcade but good games. This one is just bad.

And i never named these games "crap" because im not a idiot, i know how much work there is behind these games.

I can second that. It is totally anti-social behaviour. I reckon the anonymity of the stealing and also of the one's that did the hard work contributes to that. But still it is stealing. It clearly shows lack of empathy or intellect (or both).

Well, sorry to break it to you. There will always be stupid people wandering this beautiful planet.  ;)  One just has to accept it: As long as humans are on this planet there will be wonderful people, but also always be stupid people. It has always been like that. There's a wide spectrum. Don't let your time on earth be any less enjoyable because of that.

That's bullshit and only an excuse for yourself to justify. I have always been able to tell within 30 mins whether a game is worth it or not. The only game genre where I could understand that 2 hours might not sufficient are adventure or other games which have a story behind them. The reason you think 2 hours are not sufficient is because you probably like the game, but you do not like it 100%. But that does not entitle you to steal it. You have to decide for yourself whether this mediocre game which probably offers 10hrs of entertainment for you until you are fed up with it (then you probably randomly play it twice a year) is worth the amount they want you to pay for it. If not don't buy it. Or you can also always wait until it gets cheaper and might better fit what it is worth to you. But stealing is just weak.

If I want a coffee and I see that the coffee-to-go is priced at 2,50 Euro I have to decide for myself whether that is worth it for me. Steam is generous, they even offer you to take a sip from the coffee before you decide whether to buy or not. But you just can't steal the coffee if you are a grown-up man. Take responsibility. Simple as that.

10 hrs? After 1 hour deleted. For test the game on Steam i need buy it with my card, if I haven't money in the prepaid card in that moment. I prefer download the torrent for try it, what is the problem?  ???

Hi,
Tested this game on one lap with sbk.
Nice feeeling with the bike, a bit more than 30 minutes to close the lap.
The braking is very bad, no analogical rear brake, beurk.
But right left steering is better than other bikes games tested during years, except gpbikes hehe.
Title: Re: TT game announced...
Post by: matty0l215 on March 29, 2018, 10:19:14 AM
I get a similar feeling Jana

The breaks are terrible (ive never seen a bike go broadside when breaking before :P )

And i dont know if its just me but the input lag seem horrendus. A carrier pidgeon would get tbe inputs there quicker

GPB has been spoiling us for to long. I have a renew respect for how well GPB does its handeling even though it is still a bitt biggy ;D

GPB has been spoiling us for to long.

Not just GPB - Tourist Trophy, GP500, SBK 2001, Test Drive, even Jester's TT game(for all it was a barely controllable wheelie-fest)....

Loads of folk have managed to keep it a game while still making it feel like there was a bike under you. 
...and I don't remember hordes of folk all saying what they'd prefer is an oversimplified affair where you could brake 50m too late, slam it into a corner any-old-how, bounce off a couple of other riders and maybe a wall or two and be spat out the corner exit leading the pack.
....but over the years that's the direction the companies making them have gone.
It's a mystery to me, I don't get it at all.   ???

Read somewhere that BigBen are also doing the new Test Drive(3).  When I first heard I thought "hope this one has bikes again" but having tried TT IOM I can't say I'm fussed if they bother or not.  If it didn't even match the feel of the original version it'd just be depressing.
I'm not saying the original version was any kind of work of art by-the-way - but the bikes felt a bit bikey, crashed like bikes, wobbled and shook in the right kind of way...

Manu's original Moto2 set would make an awesome base for an arcada game.  ;D  Let you away with murder but being GPB you still had the all the right sensations going on underneath you.
Like everyone else I much prefer it now after the updates but first time out at Phillip Island I remember thinking "if only GTA and the likes felt like this...."

I totally sunk into IoM TT world. I would say this game is so immersive thanks to graphics, sounds and nice onboard camera. Unfortunately the rear wheel physics and some some lacks in animations destroys the overall feeling.

Nice that I can play with some of the GP Bikes players and play again with old friends :-)

how do u deal with the bike flying off in a different direction when you brake? its so fucked?!
Title: Re: TT game announced...
Post by: KG_03 on April 01, 2018, 08:56:49 PM
Yeah its a problem widely discussed on the steam forums.... unfortuantely this thing is caused by weird simulation of rear tyre grip loss. Once rear loose grip nothing not much can be one. So the best way is not allow this thing to happen. If you go too fast better start braking earlier and slightly, move weight backward, otherwise the rear tire will rise up hita bump and cause imidiate crash. If you go slow and rear will loose grip the only way to save it is to add throttle move weight backward and try to countersteer it.

Yes the rear slide is so stupid because there is no proper simulation. In Ride games or gp bikes once rear is sliding out you can countersteer with handelbar and manage to handle the slide. In IoM TT the front tire is always set in the long axis of the bike and you steer the bike only by leaning it, so even if you lean the bike the oposite direction of the slide, front tire is still pointing forward thats why you will almost never manage the slideout. Its a big shame.

We will see how developers will react to that claims. Will they do anything? Unfortunately this might be hard because it needs lots of work and the end result can be worse or turn the game into 100% arcade racer what will be even worse :-( I am very unhappy with the rear behaviour as I think that in real life some of the slides can be saved by countersteering with handlebar and proper throttle management whats not possible in this game what drives me crazy.

They need to improve even more things like rider weight balance visualiastion, change of the camera height during braking, maybe add a feedback to the front tire when its loosing grip like in Ride games (currently the only vibration comes from livery and bumps), also multiplayer is crashing in some situations or the options do not save what was chosen. Fortunately they announced that they will work and release some patches along with Sidecar DLC. We will see...

I wonder if Piboso has ever thought of offering his physics engine under license to the likes of Milestone and Big Ben and other companies that make bike racing games?

Seems to me that these companies either purposely create arcade physics or just are not willing to put in the investment in time and cost to fully develop a realistic physics engine for bikes? The marriage of Piboso's physics engine with these games would be perfect in my opinion! ;D 8)

Both.
Last time PiBoSo said a word about that, he said at least one of the guys working at Bilestone is more than capable of creating a proper simulator.

This is the point: they do not want to create a proper sim. They want somethig that sells, year over year, wiht minimal investment. From that point of view, they seem to be rather sucessful. They have no competition.

The nasty laws of marketing, eh........ Always build products for the mass of lazy b*stards who just want to jump straight into a game and feel like they are "Kenny Roberts" or Barry Sheene"(still in 70's/80's era here. Lol! ;D) without having to put in any effort or having any real talent, but in reality they couldn't ride jack-sh*t. Lol! ;D

When we realise that this is their agenda, this is what makes me sick when "Dorna" go down the route of supporting Milestones MotoGP game as the foundation for their eSport aspirations.... Just sickens me...  ??? :( :'(

Unfortunately its just how the world lookslike. A run to the deadline earn money and start new project. Not sure if anyone of you have seen a big argue with Milestone Community Manager on Steam forums, anyway the dont care at all about suggestions, the lead designer is a guy who has no idea about motorcycle games and they have a short deadlines. Thats why they dont core about quality products and Dorna chose them because they have the biggest experience in creating motorcycle games - they work on them since 2008 as far as I know.

I have revised my thinking about physics for commercial games like Ride or TT. They cant be as accurate as in GP Bikes because they would be much more difficult and many people could resign. ANyway more upgraded physics would be great but I worry that they can simplify it.

I agree they got some things right with the handling. and how you gotta be smooth. It feels good to me, as long as the bike is under control. as soon as there's trouble, it feels unresponsive and unpredictable. still, i'm having a lot of fun, and it is a real challenge to learn the track.

I still play. But much less (like gpbikes) since I'm very busy at work. Still mostly timetrials, since finding an online race is almost immpossible. I have never actually been able to find a race online, and have only tried online multiplayer by joining by invite 2 or 3 times. I've read at racedepartment that the consoles have many ppl online, but not on pc.

I am currently at IoM TT. Im going back tommorow. But, what I can tell you in short words:
-the game perfectly simulates the thrill of the course. All the turns and bumps are really there.
-i was able to chat with mechanics. Riders do not use ABS or electronics even if they can because on such bumpy track its hard to perdict how the bike will behave with electronics truned on. Even ABS is off for all the bikes. Of course it can differ from the riders but thats what RAF Reserve team mechanic told me.
-bikes use full telemetry for the race
-i also talked to guys from electric bikes. Funny thing is that they cant do more that 1 lap bcs of battery capacity AND even if they could they wont be able to go to pits because of hight battery heat that could be hazardous for fuel stored in the tanks.
Once im back home I will play the game to enjoy the feeling of TT. Its really big shame that game wasted such a big potential. They could have improved some things and make it more realistic with few details. Instead of it the game is boring after some longer time.

Interesting stuff Timbo and KG  :)

Let's hope they keep developing the game.

With the recent sale on the title, and the fact Ride and Ride2 were okay to some extent, I reluctantly bought a copy of TT thinking it'll just be about the same, but actually have the IOM.  ::)

I've never requested a refund on steam until today. Started the game the first time and it stuttered constantly, dialed down the graphics considerably, tuned off vsync, still choppy but I got it to run somewhat okay. The physics, views, and overall feel of the game was arcade at best though. If it ran good enough to be pretty to look at, I can imagine why it's worth the money, but if you are looking for a good IOM TT racer, we're still left waiting.

Might repurchase if someone dials in a handling mod that gets it closer to RIDE2 in feel, but it otherwise feels as though it's a half baked game that should have been developed alot longer before release. The reviews reflected the same attitude RIDE received, so I gave it a shot, and it's by and far, way worse than RIDE could have ever been.  :-\

No doubt the game is beautiful and has many good aspects like fantastic tracks, nice sounds Unfortunately its a best example how not to make a game. Terrible physics tottaly ruined game experience. Lack of few animations (like wobble, front suspension compression or dynamic head movement depending on acceleration/braking)

Its a big shame that after years of complaining about Milestone it comes out that its the only company which is able to produce a decent motorcycle games with licenced tracks/motorcycles and events.

Ah and as for a mod for physics and handling, from what I have read at racingdepartment forums it is hard to exctract files from the game and to find proper physics code 😞 even if there was a mod, i think it will not allow people to play online.

FINALLY!!!!

Got Steam controller setup working better and added a digital brakelight switch to rear brake as TT IOM demands a digital input for it. Now with the new steering damper mod, the sit-on system works sooooo much better and TT IOM is starting to be real fun. Damper allows adjustment while riding and also means it is adjustable for riders of different wieght as a bigger rider puts more pressure on the bars than a twig like me lol.

Still setting up in new place so had to use phone to record and ran out of space for full lap......coming soon as PC setup right.

Working on new sit-on fram design so is modular with the new motion platform I am working on too.
