Latest Motogp 13 Xbox live Facebook announcement:
They spoke with Michele Caletti, director of the new MotoGP 13 on the present and future of games and bikes of the new generation of consoles:
Now there have been licensed and are they who produce the game, and for the occasion debut new graphics engine, physics and animations, to achieve greater realism in both visual and driving, which already points very good manners, as we have seen. In this event we had the chance to talk to the game director Michele Caletti, who told us the news of the new MotoGP, we talked about what how they expect the series evolve in the coming years, and even had time to tell us what you seems the new generation of consoles.
MotoGP fans are a bit unhappy with the games that have appeared in recent years. Do you think this will get satisfy?
Yeah, I'm pretty sure it is. We have a very specific purpose to what the players want, and we are in contact with them through forums, Facebook, and give us your opinion. We intensive gaming sessions in studies with different types of players and even real pilots. Thus we have collected a lot of information from them to realize what they want and make the best MotoGP. There is a close game, is a game made with many opinions from many quarters.
During the development of your driving games, real pilots do you prove? Do you give your opinion on it?
Yes, we do it because we think it important to convey the real feelings of speed, physics, etc.. MotoGP To have multiple computers, mainly Italian, since, for example, presented the new bikes here in Milan, and we know a number of the equipment as well as a number of drivers belonging to the Italian team of the FIM. We were with some of them recently in Milestone, and left us a huge list of ways to improve. This was a few weeks ago, and when I tried one last time, we were saying "well, well, fixed, solved ..." ... The game progresses as they tell us what is best. Give us your opinion on the management, vehicle faults, tracks ... And nobody knows better the circuits themselves runners. We say "bad, when brake here is because I have come to a tree on the left", or other characteristic. It is a list of items we try to draw from them to incorporate into the game.
What are the greatest innovations of this over other MotoGP motorcycle games we've seen before?
I would say at least three main points. The graphics, because ... to see, the last MotoGP were not photorealistic. Now we have another approach to art direction. We try to adapt reality, something that our engine successfully achieved. Then physics, with an improved system that is palpable when braking or bow, and finally, the 'Career Mode'. Personally I love the connections with the pilot's life. Not the usual menu, but more abstract, focusing on the actual activities. Race after race, you can see all the activities and challenges. I think these are the three main points.
How have you worked in the setting of the circuit? It is an aspect that often do not take care.
To create circuits, the first contact was Dorna, the owners of the license, I was offered a lot of data on the tracks. After we hire photographers or us to take pictures of all the circuit elements, including the suburbs, to recreate 3D broadcasting their feelings in real life. We were also able to test all the bikes at the end of the last championship, as we consider very important to know in detail the vehicles. I think everything is shaping up quite well, and we can pass the "personality" of Ducatti, Yamaha, Honda, etc. in a very detailed way. Apparently it's simple, but each track requires a lot of information, talk to the drivers, but when you do things right, it all takes shape and is very realistic.
You are a studio specializing in driving games, both cars and motorcycles. How do you organize in the study? Are there people who specialize in each genre, and you all know of any?
Depends on the paper. We have a team to WRC and one for MotoGP. Other teams, responsible for development research, or working in the graphics engine, working in both games. Of course, we have designers, art directors, etc. for each of the games. The reality is that everyone loves to play in the works, but we exchanged views. We are a team focused on driving, with a team of designers who strive so much-and also, most of them are biker-that focus on the gameplay and artificial intelligence, and other key aspects of the game.
I think they put few studies the same passion as us to this genre. As a curiosity, perhaps you've noticed that sometimes the AI does something weird [in the demo you have tasted]. The truth is that we have taken a little over time, because the manager of artificial intelligence is a biker, and fell off the bike and spent two weeks at home. But I'm sure that will solve it, of course. This is an example of how much we love and that we are not strangers to the genre. It's nice to work in such an environment.
Now that you have made with the MotoGP license, do you have plans for the future of the series in the coming years?
Obviously, we can not do a single title and say goodbye. We have implemented new features to get the license and the game, and also the MotoGP license in real life is evolving, with new regulations, new manufacturers, and make a spectacle even more impressive to your audience. It is very interesting. The introduction of Moto2 meant some changes, because it is completely different from the 250, so it's great to have a common vision of the future.
After so many years doing driving games, is not nobody said the study "hey, let's do something other than driving"?
As a study, no. When you make good driving games, you tend to attract people who love driving games, and besides, we go home and we get to play driving games ... (Laughs) So it would be strange if someone says the study "well, I have a piece of mind about dragons, swords ..." Would ask "hey, where have you come from?". Nah, obviously we play other types of games, have very disparate interests beyond driving, but as a studio, we know what we do well and where we can focus. This does not limit creativity, as there are hundreds of ways to approach a genre. It is very challenging track and create something new every day. With racing games have plenty of ... (Laughs)
As a developer, how do you see the future of consoles anytime soon? By the time all the studies say PlayStation 4 is a console which is very easy to program. Do you guys see the possibility of a leap to the next generation in an accessible?
I have a positive outlook on the future of gaming, because after a few years that Apple devices explorasen a new market, the industry has returned to balance. Generally, iOS games now remain on iOS and console games are able to find their way without having to be an iOS game. I have great interest in the new consoles, because in effect, it will be very easy to program for them. This means you can spend more time thinking about the ideas in the hardware, which is the most important in the industry. Apparently, at the end of the generational cycle, the ideas are somewhat hard to find. I think the new hardware developers will find new ideas.
Then, not having to "pelearos" with the hardware, do we allow you to see new ideas in genres like the bikes?
Well, there's always fighting, never easy. I was a programmer, and I know of what I speak. It is always difficult but sometimes it is more difficult, as with PlayStation 3, one of the most complex. PlayStation 4 and the new Xbox will be more similar to each other, since the complexity [in this generation] comes not only hardware, but the fact that you do the same on two different machines. So in the end you have to do different things. If you can do things like that to get the same results, it's all much easier. I think it's time to do this, and something that Sony and Microsoft have understood. Now is the time to sponsor game development in a more simple, something that makes me feel quite optimistic.
Have you had ideas that have not been implemented in a game due to technical limitations?
Yeah Racing games are very delicate, as the resolution, the frame rate per second, physics ... These things are not always obvious. Car games are simpler, since cars are discouraged as a body. Instead, the rendering of bike games is much more complex, so you have to animate a motorcycle with a driver, fully animated, which is handled. On the issue of performance and optimization are a nightmare. More power, more memory ... means having for example a faster physical system integrated with the graphics engine. This alone, even without any other improvement, and trade the experience. And if the new platforms allow us to have a Full HD games, sixty frames per second, is something that will make a big difference.
Pinta bien, aunque una cosa son las palabras y otras los echos, ya veremos, de momento la ducati parece la del ultimo moto gp de la repulsiva compañia Monumental, pero como esa no va a ser la que salga este año pienso que no le han dedicado mucho tiempo. La M1 del otro video me parecio mucho mejor en las texturas y en la forma

y además, lo de los reglajes, que parece que por fin van a ser reglajes de verdad con muchos parámetros donde elegir
