Need for Speed Shift 2 - Crashes and Accidents 

I like Shift 2 because of the crash physics and the overall depiction of the violence that takes place in motorsport

Fuck the physics, all i like is crashes and this is awesome

1:06 the Lancia learned to two wheel in its rally days

6:26 - Maserati "No!!!!" Lamborghini "High five, bro."

0:59 That was too awesome.

0:59 now this will be the best part

Gorgeously assorted moments and that being matched dot in dot! I'm quite far from being a little babe, but I madly love watching it!

1:50 look how the damage just randomly pops up

06:20 McLaren F1:DAMMIT! Pagani Huayra:HIGH-FIVE! Me:DAT PAGANI

When the cars roll , WEEEEEEEEE

YEEEESSSS! finaly someone who TALKS SOME SENSE!!!

I love the damage in this game!

i love how almost all the cars land on their wheels !

i frickin love this

Woaahh... The crash physics are... "Overpowered"....

its amazing how everything flys off the cars but the windows stay put...

Wow! Really great physics!

1:51 ... realistic... 'car fine' - 0.05s later - 'car fully damaged'

That was Epic

6:55 tho. That noise

GRID: Yeah I was talking about handling physics

It was at this moment, when EA knew they fucked up.

Thank you, I'm glad you recognize there are good reasons to both use consoles and PCs for gaming. They're just different ways to meet the same need, and there are good reasons for both. Such is the way many other things in life are like, and that's the way it should be.

1:52 Magneto shows his power!!!!

This game I pretty good. It sounds good and looks good. Love the cars and love the vid. The only down side I the rolling... Other than hat, nice vid nice game nice cars

I hope that the next need for speed will have first person driving like showing your hands on the wheel. now that would be awesome!!!

1:49 Most Realistic Crash Lol :D

do you get a smooth drive when you race? it feels like half the time, i flip because my springs are stiff as shit, or my tires have too much understeer.

thank you very much!

There should be a danger rating for each crash from 1 to 10 based on how dangerous the crash looked. (I would appreciate it if the owner of this video did this in another crash video.)

I can't believe this. EA really messed up. Instead of allowing the devs to take their time and create a masterpiece they rush this out the door? This had HUGE potential. This is the only attempt at creating a realistic racer with realistic crashing! I've wanted this for years. EA had this in the bag, all they had to do was let the devs make it good... damn you EA. Forza and GT are great because "it's done when it's done". This could have been a classic if allowed to develop properly.

5:08 - GREAT crash physics, I'm def. buying this game. (lol) From what I've seen, it has too much gravity, cars are "cuffed" to the ground.

Bing! "You have reached your Destination!"

1:51 was like the car imploded.

The crashes in this game are terrible. The games driving is good and the cars feel like they have realistic weight to them. But then when you crash it's like the cars turn into toy hot wheels cars and just become the lightest thing ever with terrible damage models and indestructible windows.

Ohhhhhhh okay! I might have to watch that

ive never played it before too, but in this it feels like the car is almost stuck to the ground if it rolls unrealisticly and also all the parts fly of like they where badly glued on or something

It used to be different... NFS started dying in 2005/2006 - try out the old NFS: Hot Pursuit 2 on either GameCube, original Xbox, or PC; that's still one of my favorite games out there. (For some reason the PS2 version has entirely different physics, and feels and acts completely different in nearly every way...)

what platform and what did you use to edit ?

dude, its closer than you think. Im so excited about this but... go up there, search for BeamNG, enter their youtube channel and vola... the greatest damage model in history! its still in development but once they finish it, in few years or less as it looks so good already..its gonna be so sweet to crash in games.

now we need this in Gran Turismo 5!!

Wow physics went out the fucking window when they made this game XD

Oh how I love lightweight physics in this game.

i wonder of what material are those windows made of?

In (possibly) NFS:S 3, they should probably use an engine made by Rigs of Rods (Like CryEngine 3) to make the crashes more spectacular!

did you catch that some cars had just a flat bottom and some had a detailed bottom

That's like having an FPS without guns, or a racing game without vehicles.

I played a lot of racing games, from c-64 to actual modern pc simulations (but never shift 2). So from this vid I can notice a pair of things: 1) The violence of the crash probably is the most badass violence in pc racing sim; 2) the chance of bad crash during a race are really high, near the real life racing. 3) The physic is obscene.. cmon damn! with all that great badass crash effects and you go to use these ugly and irrealistic physic??? :(( 4) the static graphic is really good.

If the rolls didn't look so scripted then it'd be a really good game. Part of the reason why I like NFS and Forza games more than Gran Turismo is because of the crashes. Shift 2 and GT are the two peaks of game crashes lol. In GT, it's really hard to do any realistic damage to your car. But in Shift 2, it's way too overdramatic to look good.

Man, Shift 2 physics are weird!

What engine is this game using?! It's fucking spectacular! Shits flying everywhere!

do they always do an over exaggerated rollover when they hit the dirt?

wow, i've never flipped with my car.. feels almost impossible to do so

thanks

8:28 ok, wtf!? How do you not see that!?

5:08 to 5:13 LMFAO XD love that one, crazy revving sound makes it even funnier..what a loony looking crash

@sethioz you sure you had visual damage on? theres option in the options to choose to take it off, cars still get damaged but visually they remain untouched.... i wasnt actually even talking about visual damage. Thats not the best possible in iracing but the damage engine is....it has nothing to do with visual damage, but car internal. They said if they are making a realistic visual damage to the game too...not sure tho. :P

i guess the crash effects you are seeing is of low quality because the uploader has changed the graphics settings... otherwise shift2 is one of the most realistic race simulations i've ever played...(remember "one of the" not "the best" coz it depends)

SlightlyMadStudios(shift series developers) is working on a sim called projectC.A.R.S. using the SHIFT 2 engine. Looks fantastic though you might not like sim racers...you might want to check out GRID 2 arcade racer....no cockpit view though, i'd wait till GRID 3 or the next release to see if they remember how to make a great game codemasters is falling apart at the seams since DIRT 2.

Sick cars

nice cars

is this on PC?

1:51 the car just gets damaged instantly wtf

Dude it is good But if you will put Some good music That will be better

the Aston Martin rollover reminds me of james bond

in this game its like „ u lift off ground u dead“

The NFS makers need to make some good realistic damage, just like on NFS Pro Street on the Xbox 360.

(last one) saved it like a boss

Well, the racing is supposed to be realistic. I love the idea of a realistic racer with realistic damage. I've wanted that for so long. But this damage doesn't seem realistic.. the wheels especially seem to come off the car way too easily. Come on EA, you have a potential megahit here.

Either EA made the off-track surfaces WAY to grippy when sliding, or the cars too easy to tip in this game. Or both... Plus, look at the way the car INSTANTLY loses momentum in rollover accidents (which seem to be nearly the only type of wrecks that occur in Shift 2) - there's no sliding down the track & careening into walls & other cars, just instantaneous stops. Plus, the cars just seem to instantly get damaged when you flip; no crumpling/progressive damage at at all. I could rant all day...

I think what sets them apart is that the game isn't trying that hard to be an all-out sim racer, so you don't get so bothered by the unrealistic aspects... While with Shift 2, it feels like it tried, and failed MISERABLY. I really shouldn't be giving inanimate objects personalities... Should I be getting mental help? :P

good job ea what a realistic game too...

plus you have the fact that you wont have to suffer the pain and agony of the results of the crash along with the possible fatality. :P

What do you think about the Burnout Series?

The cars just need to... you know, fly abit more?

euh, how do i get there, I already did it, but how do I do it again?

2:05 what type of lamboghini is this? it looks like a lamborghini reventon, but i'm not shure. oh yea, you realy need to do more wreckes from the cockpit view or hood view

It doesn't feel so great when you're playing... Everything loses momentum too fast, and there's too much resistance on most surfaces. Plus, cars roll FAR too easily.

on 5:28 how do i get that drift area?

Waiiit a sec there's another guy called Sethioz Project....

i want to know how you flipped a bugatti veyron, lamborgini reventon, and lexus LFA

You hit the tinniest bit of debris and your whole car crumples! Dafuq

He wasn't talking about graphics, and as sethioz stated, it isn't an iPad game.

IS THIS THE COMPUTER VERSION

0:55 been there :D

there is a lot of carsex clips in this vid.

It is called BUG, and it doesn't happen everytime. I have the game and it's awesome.

That yellow Bugatti got FUCKED UP, man!

Poor wheels! Always getting torn away!

What the hell the crashes in this game blow!

Have you head dubstep?

you know, I realize that these are just Shift-created pixels on a computer screen, but for some reason it still makes me cringe when the Bugatti's, Lamborghini's and Porshe's crash.

So the Crash and physics engine with crashes looks absolutely unrealistic but its soo unbelievably hilarious to see them fly like like they would be some light plastic shit or sth

lokks like real exept for car physics

You don't like destruction on collisions? :)

4:48 They see me rollin they hatin

why is it that when the cars side touches the ground it starts spinning like mad

well at least this is better than those Need for Burnout games.

2:05 what type of lamboghini is this? it looks like a lamborghini reventon, but i'm not shure

@sethioz iracing has sick realistic dmg too(although its an online sim game) :P one hit to the wall even if its light hit may cause your car to be damaged abit so that it starts sweering one side and...like me....got black flag for not pitting my car after such crash :( it worked fine for god sake! :D Otherwise...agreed.
