JDM: Japanese Drift Master

Fun ever if you're not a weeb. Physics are somewhere between NFS and Forza, kind of like CarX. Tons of customization options but no decals or livery creator. Poor optimization. Running 4k fsr balanced high/medium settings and dropping under 60fps regularly, especially when there is a lot of trees.

Спустя 14 часов и подгорающей дупы,,, Плюсы: 1. Графика - мне в принципе нравится, машинки красивые, капли дождя на кузове и стекле, окружающий мир уже хуже, эффекты дождя из под колес не очень, листья у деревьев пиксельные. 2. Сюжет - есть несколько веток разных сюжет еще и в виде комиксов, для гонок прям круто, обычно такого и близко нет. 3. Карта - тут все нравится, атмосферно, много серпантинов, есть автомагистраль в общем красота. 4. Геймплей - скудненько, но интересно, сюжет, доставка, особые заезды, есть онлайн (мне не интересен) подпольные гонки, на последние больше всего времени и потратил, как и кучу денег. 5. Управление - аркадное, не сложный дрифт, в общем для таких как я. Хотя в той же форзе дрифт сложнее в освоение, но при этом сильно интереснее. 6. Музыка - электроника и японская тематика гуд, остальное как-будто не в кассу Минусы: 1. На загрузочном экране будет написано ~ jdm это в том числе культура тюнинга автомобиля внутри и снаружи. Тюнинга внешнего (в том числе салона) просто кот наплакал, вот прям преступно мало. На r35 закой-то буй 6 вариантов кузова, а 180 sx один. Вот как-то старую машину затюнить хочется больше, чем новый спорткар. 2. Двигатель улучшить можно, а вот коробку только настраивать. 3. Оптимизация - 5070 и 5700х маловато для 2к и 60 fps. Повторюсь, графика звезд с неба не хватает. 4. Подпольные гонки - написано "чистое небо", по факту дождь, был грипп, я соответственно выставил время как под сухую погоду - минус миллион. - вылетает машина за забор и все, ни на трассу не вернутся, ни выехать - минус миллион. Придирки: 1. Опять в тюнинг. Стартовый значит авто прокачал для дрифта, от стока разница не критична. Сойдет. Покупаю значит 180, тюнинг под грипп, все время наравит боком зайти, как не выстраивал настройки. Переделал под дрифт, подумал в место levin, так и тут мимо, как не настраивал, ну вот хуже он чем levin. Опять какой-то критичной разницы от настроек как бы не чувствуется. Гайдов в интернете пару штук, на 180 не помогли. В придирках из-за того, что может я чего не понимаю. Товарищи разработчики может что-то выпустят. 2. ИИ - значит-с сюжет на старом civic. 3 или 4 гонки со старта всех обгоняешь сразу (сложность средняя стоит). 4 гонка, еле на последнем повороте обогнал соперника перед финишем. Следующая гонка опять всех обгоняю со старта. 3. В автопарке не хватает седанов и универсалов 4. Фото с достопримечательностями, то срабатывает, то нет. Общее впечатление: как-будто игру не доделали, тюнинг, оптимизация, баги. Вроде и интересно, а вроде уже и подгорает. Будем надеется, что разработчики допилят игру.

Где маркообразные? Без них JDM не JDM

It's unplayable with keyboard, only 5 or 6 car variety on the traffic, at first drifting is so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ hard you need to play literally least 5 hours for drifting good, ai of the traffic cars are trash, we cant go out of the road and lastly navigation so buggy but i still recommend it bc its still playabable with these features and they do not make the game bad that much and buy it if its on sale imo.

*BUCKLE UP* Okay, I have a few hours in now, and have purchased and modified several cars, so I have a good standing to leave a review. I'm going to recommend it, with a few caveats. 1. It's on sale 2. Devs continue to improve it/fix the long list of bugs 3. You set your standards on 'Arcade game' instead of 'simulation' *The Good* Environment looks great, cars look great and the gameplay is smooth. The drifting itself feels really nice (once you get the hang of it, because the first few cars you are forced to use steer like boats). There a decent amount of customisation for performance. You can easily set the gameplay style (Arcade-Sim). The point system is forgiving, in that bumping things while you are drifting wont cancel it, but stoppin or spinning out will. Real cars. *The Bad* Lots of bugs. Lots. The navigation system is chaos, and will just change it's mind constantly. If you start, and the direction is backwards, when you turn around, it will re-route as if you are driving backwards. The world markers dont seem to register the car, sometimes you'll drive over them, and have to reverse back on. or drive off and on again. The UI in general is super janky. Some menu systems just dont work, and some have three tiers for two options. The visual modifications are a bit underwhelming. While there are some good options, There just doesn't feel like that many, and the 'Body kit' is just a package that you can't modify. For example, the side skirts of a bodykit can't be put on individually. The AI driving is a bit goofy at times. For some super silly reason, all car modification can be done in your garage, apart from colour. Which you have to go to a seperate little shop, and then, even more underwhelming, you can only pick a single colour for the body. Not wheels, not panels, no decals, no livery, no tint, no secondary colours. (this menu is annoying too). The first DLC is USDM (yeah, thats a con for me) The achievements seem to register incorrectly. One big gripe for me: You save some money, buy some nice cars, tune them for a specific surpose, arrive at an event, and have to use a pre-selected car. Nothing tells you which ones these are, so you still have to go prepared, and 4/5 times you dont use your own car. Sometimes an event just ends, and it might decide you won or lost. There's no real feeling of progression or story line. There are missions, but the Manga story is just hollow and hard to latch on to. The new multiplayer mode is pretty janky too. It's one of those 'everything is solid' games, so the physics feel really strange when you crash. *My Thoughts* Instead of DLC, i would have rather the game be polished a bit more. The car mod/drift scene has always been heavily rooted in customisation and uniqueness. I think a custom decal system, livery, and some better colour options for more parts of the cars would do wonders. Why have I recommended it when My bad list is so long? Well, because everything I mentioned can be fixed, and if it is, the game will be a banger. From what I've seen on the Discord, the devs seem like good people that are listening to the community and taking on recommendations and opinions, that alone these days tips the scales quite a lot. The game is stil playable, and is quite fun, but you do need to look past quite a few pot-holes.

日本が舞台 FH6発売されました。こちらも頑張って完成度を高めてほしい。スクリーンショットのHUDが映り込まないようにしてほしい

ストーリーを進めるのはレースを含め楽しくないのでやっていません お寿司の配達だけをして遊んでいます 全体的なグラフィックも綺麗で満足していますが 車種が少なすぎる気がします 特に不満なのは、曇っていたり影になっている所を走っていると現実より明らかに暗いです そして、日陰でも実際に日本で走ってみれば分かりますが、こんなに暗くありません そして建物の影や木の影に入ってしまう部分が多すぎます 現実では都内のビル街でもしっかりと道には日が当たる方が多いです この不満はゲーム体験を台無しにしています。 DLCで追加でも良いのでmapを広げて欲しいですね それとオープンワールドなのだから道から外れて自由に走りたいです 車種も、どのゲームも似たような車種ばかりなので、ここは思い切ってニッチだけど需要がある日産ならFugaとかcima、グロリアなど！ TOYOTAではアリストやチェイサー！ 他にもセダン系を入れてみてはどうでしょうか？ ゲーム内で走ってる車もぜひプレイヤーが使えるようにして欲しいです 現状ギリギリ、セール価格ならおすすめできる気がします

Beautiful graphics, buttery smooth game-play with lots of drifting. I’ve spent hours just cruising, enjoying the beautiful graphics & colours. So much drifting, and very satisfying when using gamepad with analogue triggers .Good Music and lots of tracks to listen through. This game performed very well on my laptop from day 1,a great experience so far, based on price and what you receive, with the attention to detail, the content, the passion that the developers have put in to this game, I think it’s a very good game. Reminds me a lot of The Crew, Test Drive Unlimited & Need For Speed, with free roam, photo mode, car customization. So far seems to be plenty of missions to complete and lots of cars to collect and customize, I’m happy with how much content there is. The map is huge and visually stunning! There’s no voice acting in this game, but you get instead a manga comic book style story. I think the choice of no voice acting actually makes this game stronger and helps it stand out when compared to other modern games, JDM has it’s own unique style. The Supporter Pack DLC has a light background story with some interesting characters , very cute girls and nice artwork, presented in manga style & downloadable 197 page PDF of the manga + an additional story -The Rise Of The Scorpion manga which is another 21 page PDF. The Car customization is deep: can tune engine parts, lots of engine upgrades available, you can adjust suspension height and wheel camber angles, you can paint your car any colours you want and add body kits, lots of different wheels available, and ability to change the interior trim -including the steering wheel & gear stick. And radio stations with lots of good music that fits game well. The game is very immersive & has a beautiful day to night cycle and the dynamic weather is good. Lots of different camera angles to choose, driver & cockpit views have good interior detail & realistic quality, especially when running the game on 2K resolution. What I love about this game : • Currently 41 cars available as of time of review with dlc included, and more on the way soon • Deep car customization – will keep you very busy • Beautiful graphics, bright colours, high detail to Cars & Japan scenery • Responsive controls & options to tweak control settings in the menu • Dynamic weather patterns: beautiful lighting, strong rain effects, occasional thunderstorms and a very good looking Day to Night cycle, • Excellent radio stations and music selection • Regular developer communications & updates, shows lots of love & passion went in to this game • A big beautiful free roaming world that reminds me of The Crew, Test Drive Unlimited and Need for Speed games & a good blend of simulation & arcade style car racing • High performance & visual presentation ,able to achieve high FPS with high graphics settings • Loading times are fast and good • You can change time of day by using fast travel. Depending how far away you are from the garage that you fast travel to, I’ve found it can progress time anywhere between 2 – 4 hours, which is a nice feature What I’d like to see improved on : • A larger map with more areas to explore. • I’d love to see some car jumps and big air in this game, I think jumps would fit in well with this style of arcade racing • More cars. it would be great to see more time period cars, eg 80’s & 90’s cars • More car realism, I’d love it if we could open the hood to see the engine open car doors & boots, unwind car windows. I’d like it if we could adjust the drivers seat position so it can be further away from the dashboard and also have a cinematic camera view like GTA, zoomed out more & automatically changes position • Better brake handling and brake sounds. Currently there’s little to no when using the handbrake, I feel this may be a glitch or something that was overlooked. Brakes need to be stronger & more responsive • Better photo mode , current photo mode kind of sucks, doesn’t capture the same colours you normally see during driving, you can manually adjust camera settings but it still doesn’t get the colours right .When you see an excellent view of a mountain in the distance ,all of the far distance colours & details will then disappear or are not captured when you enter Photo mode . • Better atmospheric sounds, I hear the engine when I engage the throttle, but as soon as I lift my finger off the trigger, I don’t hear any car engine sounds, it’s as if the engine audio just cuts out completely as soon as you stop holding down the button. It would also be nice to hear more of the other cars that you pass by, maybe have the ability to hear the music that other cars are playing as they drive past you to give more of a realistic immersive experience. • Improved realism with the world map, there’s currently no people anywhere in this game. You drive around and there’s literally no people anywhere, it looks incomplete & kind of creepy. • More driving missions and variations of missions, have more reasons to complete driving missions other than earning more money. Instead of only delivering sushi, it would also be cool if you could deliver car parts, pick up car parts from another garage or tow a car to a specific destination, which can then unlock cars & car parts that you normally can’t get.
