Demo feedback

[monumental]

Hi

After you've downloaded and experienced the demo, please add any questions or comments you may have in this thread.

[thevince#48]

first the sounds are a good step in the right direction 125, 250 and 800
the handeling feels in the beginning a bit oversensetive as Rayn already posted but in 2 or 3 laps you'll get used to it

the envoirement of mugello look real nice (with the mountains in the background with nice detailing)

in arcade mode it is in the beginning a bit tough to keep the clock running but after a few races of the track with the 250 you'll start riding better lines so you can get some cleansections, slipstream and also overtaking points. i think arcade mode in this style is a definetive plus to the game it keeps it interesting,than just riding laps


the rear brake is good for sliding in to corners but its needs getting used to (you'll over do it and you'll end up highsiding)


still would like the career mode but this is enough to keep me busy til the 19th

Sorry, already started another thread (can it be removed?)

For people who can't find the demo on XBL: Go to 'All Game Demo's' and then search for MotoGP 09/10 Demo. You can download it from there.

Feedback: Well, I'm still getting used to the handling and controller-setups. Game looks nice, but I'm still in 'testing'-mode before I can say any sensible. I think everybody who is used to play MotoGP07 will have work to do to get used to the different game style, as they will struggle!
On a quick note I noticed that the brakes are a lot more realistic.

Question:
Is there any way (in the demo) or in the final game to switch of the racing line? If you are experienced you really don't want to see that line and the ports.

Thanks in advance!

Will the DLC's also be gold? I am silver membership and I'm not going to buy gold membership just for a FREE DLC, if its free then let it really be free, not everyone is gold member and is going to be gold member

You can't turn the racing line off in the demo, but you will be able to in the full version of the game.

First of all I want to thank Monumental and Capcom for the hard work they put into this game !

Probz !

Feedback: Overall the game is nice !

Beautiful Menu screen !
Nice Physics (Sometimes it feels like I'm stuck in a corner, but its a learning process !
D-pad mode , AWESOME JOB !!
Graphics < Perfect specially the Bloom effects !

But there were a few minor issues though, for example:

The speeches: (His voice is annoying dude), specially when i choose a track.

In game songs and menu music: The songs are boring definitely the main menu song, try some Rock or Drum & Base << typical Race Game tracks!

The bike sounds: Although the game is pretty realistic the sounds on the other hand is not as realistic as I expect from you guys, I hope that there we'll be a difference in the next seasons game.

Colored racing lines: For beginners it is understandable, but like ArounD said, is there some switch off setting or something like that ??

Still..... you guys did a awesome job and i want to thank y'all !

Hi Mek!

Well, I guess if you don't give it a chance and are not willing to spend some time to get used to the handling to get some feeling for the game then it's very easy to quickly judge it. Take care,

Well I cant believe anybody can actually care for this(dont you people have any taste) ,but each to his own.I guess it all depends on where your comming from.Me i'v allways fancied realistic games like TT Superbikes,and to me this just doesent feel like an authentic exp.Feels too much like a game,and its too much pop for my tasteI like Rock'n Roll
Anyway you all take care now

I play MotoGP 08 a lot (on Simulation difficulty) and have played MotoGP games for years. I'm also a big fan of the sport (go Lorenzo!).

I was really looking forward to a new MotoGP game, but sadly, after trying the demo, I am very disappointed. MotoGP 09/10 is a big downgrade from MotoGP 08. To be honest, it's even a downgrade from MotoGP 3: Ultimate Racing Technology on the original Xbox.

- The graphics are not even close to being realistic. There's too little detail, too much blur and the lighting looks very odd. The last game had great graphics and you guys had an opportunity to make something even better. The camera angles don't look right either.

- The animations and handling of the bikes are extremely unrealistic and feel very much like a bad arcade game. You can't tilt a bike left, right, left, right over and over like in the demo without falling. The bike doesn't feel connected to the track.

- The menu and gui/hud design is terrible. Very flashy and dark. This does not look professional and honestly it degrades the gaming experience and the impression of MotoGP as a sport. Look at Forza 3 or MotoGP 08 for good examples of well designed menus and hud's.

- Sounds and music are really bad. The high pitch voice announcing every menu selection is going to get irritating very fast. Bikes sound like toys and the menu sounds and music fit in well with the style of the menus, but have no place in a MotoGP game.

All in all, the game feels like a cheap knockoff. You've turned MotoGP, the world's most exciting sport, into a shiny arcade toy. I won't be buying 09/10 and I hope Capcom is smart enough to hand the license over to a better developer like Milestone or Codemasters for the next game.

The game is an alright game, but the bike sounds are just awful. In fact it sounds just like the first gameplay video we saw where Monumental said that they were going to improve upon this. What's worse is that ALL the bikes sound the same. I dont hear them screams of the ducati engine or the muffled growls of the yamahas. I mean come on, what is it exactly that you guys were recording during pre season testing? lawnmowers? And that annoying Scottish voice needs to go. The visuals are quite good, but just a little too dark.

You guys are headed in the right direction however. Its a big improvement over '08. For '11 you should use some high tech equipment for recording the bikes like gt5/forza3 and get some stunning visuals like gt5/forza3. Over n out.
