Before anything is better to clarify how we are talking about realism. He is a simulator, ie, it takes tangent curves, brake early and pick up the void of the competitive front, in other words, it is a fun little game to play without stress, no sweat. You will suffer, will actually participate in a competition where the other competitors, even if virtual, will not limp.
And start your engines!
The game is based on Brazil Stock Car championship of the school year 2010, where they run Chevrolet Vectra and Peugeot 307 on a large grid with 34 cars. The changes to the category this year are slim, the bubble is now the 307 and 408 instead of 34 pilots, only 31 are now present. But the clues are the same this season, what changes is the order of some events. With a total of 12 tests, and in 10 different circuits, so the league adheres to the races of the season, they are:
1. Interlagos circuit in Sao Paulo
2. Autodromo Internacional de Curitiba, Paraná
3. International Speedway Santa Cruz do Sul in Rio Grande do Sul
4. Autodromo Nelson Piquet - Jacarepaguá in Rio de Janeiro
5. Circuit Ribeirao Preto in Sao Paulo (street circuit)
6. Circuit C.A.B in Bahia (street circuit)
7. Orlando Moura Circuit in Mato Grosso do Sul
8. Interlagos circuit in Sao Paulo
9. Speedway Ayrton Senna in Paraná
10. Velopark International Speedway in Rio Grande do Sul
11. Autodromo Nelson Piquet in Brasilia
12. Autodromo Internacional de Curitiba, Paraná
In Game Stock Car can run free practice no other opponents, which simulate normal running of the races of the championship and even the League itself, with 12 events in the exact sequence. All game modes can be played either against the computer, as well as against other real players, or even mixing the two together. At each stage of the championship there are days of training, qualifying and the race itself. Leaving even more real, "days" is the start of the pit straight.
Piloting the first
Driving in this game is great, all very real and side to side as if we were really playing industry's strongest titles such as Gran Turismo 5. It is difficult, requires concentration and every silly little mistake can cause you to lose the race. But fans of simulators will splurge with the title that is more perfect in a force feedback wheel, suitable investment for the title. Unlike the first Need for Speed Shift that required a wheel, stock car game does not require, but the simulation is more accurate and can say, pleasant to enjoy more of the game.
The car is completely configurable and it requires a certain expertise in the field. You can configure the aerodynamics, gear ratios, suspension, power brakes, tires and calibration in general, all following the same principles of reality. In addition, the game offers several difficulty levels, adjustments of intelligence and aggressiveness of drivers, allowing ever experience new challenges in the game.
Technically not the best ...
Technically speaking Game Stock Car leaves something to be desired. Graphically it is quite simple, but not bad. Compared to games like Forza Motorsports III available in the market game Stock Car looks like a old game.
The cars are simple, common textures, the circuits also follow this trend, although they have billboards and advertisements in their correct place, there to leave a visual open-mouthed. The images of the game itself that illustrate our analysis are very real and show what I'm talking about. There are three different cameras to play, inside the cockpit, where you can see the wheel, but without the hands, the hood of the car and a rear view.
The sound of the game is simple, is to be expected that all cars have the same sound as are all the car model G-09 and JL only change the bubbles, but beyond the sound of cars and the audience, there is much little variety. The audience always repeats itself, there is no sound of wind and the sound of the beats is very repetitive and unrealistic.
34 players?
Yes, 34 different players competing in a single run, ie, full grid, all teams and players representing the official drivers. Multiplayer requires a good connection depending on the amount of people playing at once, but there is a failure. Chubby and perfect.
Conclusion
Game Stock Car buying is right for anyone who likes simulators. The game has excellent artificial intelligence, is perfect for those who enjoy exciting and Pilots for the first time in the history of the games we have the most important meeting of the national circuits in a single game, which led to Brazilian Stock Car category for the whole world as NC Games to distribute the game internationally.
The 34 players in multiplayer, motivates the dispute with friends constantly and is similar to classic games such as GP2 PC Geoff Crammond, where friends stood on a LAN in his garage to endless disputes.
