IDAS 4 because of the graphics and physics. I like the realism and how you can actually pick parts you want from a list and not have them randomly come up like in ver3's part change. I waited for like 100+ games to get those creative aero mirrors for my ver3 evo3.

Isn't online for Jap version only?

I say AS4, actually drift and there is a tiny bit of logical physics, also none of the obuse the gear box crap.

- Removal of force fishing
- cars are more balanced

version 4 is a little better then version 3, because it doesn't really use tst or eraser.

v3...v4 is just so damn illogical...but I do give props to sega for coming out with an almost entirely new game system smile.gif

V4 eraser is now done with feet :/

Those of you who say v4 is more realistic, I say WTF??!?!?!?

is more real in terms of accelleration cept IRO, in v3, player can do cornering with 140 kph or 5th gear, that's not realistic either happy.gif

version 3

at least with tst and eraser, you needed skills with it and good lines

in version 4, rape wall and penalty cancel = lame.
and not balanced, trueno is monster and popular cars from anime are pretty powerful compared to other not so popular cars
and we cant pick song, and the lame way of tuning cards which costs alot of money
and other things i can think off

also not to mention sega being noobs and not converting the jap version properly for english market, no rank up. so what if they can patch it, it shows how slack they were sleep.gif

ok maybe 1 thing is good about 4 car, how cars slide and look more pretty but bad gameplay smile.gif

IDAS 4

-No eraser and TST (less broken machines and more people using both feet)
-Better graphics
-Cars actually get sideways when turning (still not real life drifting but it'll do)
-Manual customization of cars
-Avatars XD
-Better song lineup (shame that Tomo/Touch isn't around to lose while Forever Young plays)

this is just my opinion...

IDAS 4 pros over v3:
--graphics and eye candy (of course!)
--reduced car performance differences
--no more eraser and TST
--back to square one (v1-v3 success doesn't guarantee success in IDAS 4 right away)
--you will do the customization/tuning yourself (and being the stubborn person that i am, i don't care about parts so i can live with the GC8V having minimal parts installed in it)

IDAS 4 cons over v3:
--no bunta challenge (this may bore some players, esp. those who don't wish to go through LOTS more than once and/or who don't do TA's that often)
--difficulty level of LOTS may be too much for some

verdict: IDAS 4... this was a close call but i had to consider the overall skill factor (start-up, cornering, line control, etc)... in v3 you can still get away with having not much cornering skill if your car had mad start-up and you had decent blocking skills...

I dunno about the "decreased car performance differences" though. AS4 hit arcades just recently you know. Give it a few more months when all the cars have been full tuned and abused a thousand times and we may still get to see those ups and downs of each and every car the same way they did in previous versions.

dunno....just my two cents.

Oh...and I pick 4 simply for the eyecandy. (the wet tracks are GORGEOUS!)
what?

hmmm

initial D 4
graphics well of course
New system pretty cool
Penalty cancel and wall rape? LOL THAT A LOT OF SKILL COMPARED TO V3 (Sarcastic)
Anime car are a bit overpowered compared to others
Not a lot of new courses and didnt keep original.

I prefer Initial D 3 because u needed more skill and timing to catch a line with Tst or Eraser and it was harder to run a good time with running minor walls.

So Initial D 3 for skills but Initial D 4 for graphics

LOL INITIAL D 4 = REALISTIC? DAYAM ur car must be seriously banged up in real life XD.

V4.

I've been relying on raw driving technique (no eraser or TST) in v3 since I started and got nothing for it. Now I can pull halfway decent times just by doing what I usually do, and not worrying about how to use fancy tricks to artificially improve.

That, and I like the way you can choose what gets tuned and when... now, if only you can do the same for the avatar instead of getting a crapshoot with the slot, then it would be close to perfect.

Threads like this make me want to shoot myself in the head. whistling.gif

Of course V4 looks prettier.. it's about 5 f**king years newer than the NAOMI engine V1/V2/V3 was based on. That's about the only positive thing I can mention about V4 though.
