They are also cloud based, meaning it will not work without an online connection since the data are all stored on Sega's servers. Which also means if that if your arcade doesn't subscribe to Sega's online services or the Internet is down for the day, you can't use your card period.

IDW Senior Member Group: Members Posts: 71 Member No.: 44,795 Joined: Oct 3rd 2014 Location: Malaysia | From some youtube videos, the significant changes are the steering inputs(about one-third of the usual input), the car physics when its not full tuned( more like D3 and D7 than D8), and NO FUCKING EUROBEAT (sigh ) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6dZt2oF4xME https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5tgnp8CICFQ Let the videos do the talking |

I think you might not wanna judge too early. There's The Top and Stop Your Self Control unlocked by players. Whatever it is that is shown now, just watch and not judge. You may or may not like it doesn't mean others will too. | ||

Not sure if I like it personally, can get disturbing. Also this might trigger someone with epilepsy LOL. One thing I do like, is the minimap seems to show a larger portion of the course now. This is great especially for beginners. This post has been edited by holnivek on Jan 26 2017, 12:23 PM |

Nagao Fanboy Group: Advanced Members Posts: 2,068 Member No.: 36,182 Joined: Aug 27th 2010 Location: The Internet, DUH | - Personally hoping they'll be more eurobeat songs in the game (I am not a big fan on the songs used in the movies - and this is coming from someone who loves rock usually). Hopefully Sega will surprise us with some Eurobeat tracks in the final game but I guess seeing a few Eurobeat tracks in the rest is encouraging I guess though it's not a confirmation yet that they'll make it to the final game if past experience is an example. - One big disappointment I have with the current demo is that they took out the car tuning info in the race UI. That was one new feature I was really looking forward to so hopefully they'll add it back in for the final release. - Not a big fan of the LED thing either mainly because hardware can and will fail over time. Relying on a soft indicator like the previously would be better solution IMO. - Physics doesn't look too appealing but hard make any conclusions since it's not Full Tune and still a test. I guess we'll find out soon enough. - Speculation: I suspect the new default tachometer will have a gear location indicator similar to Wangan. It will intuitively help some players with the H-shifter since it provides them quick visual info on where's the next gear they want to go. |

I realize it's gonna require online and Sega hasn't believe it's worth it to provide us online services to this point, but IMO the environment here has drastically changed within the last year. We're getting more and more Round 1 locations, plus Dave & Busters has shown a willingness to accommodate going online with DDR Ace. So maaayybe, Sega might change it's stance?? Wishful thinking I know but I can hope! |

Though it wouldn't surprise me if Sega still charges them the full price of the online subscription for that (which is a monthly online fee plus a percentage of the revenue form all game played). First things first though, the arcades we need to purchase EXP machines instead of JPN machines, since Sega absolutely won't allow those to go online outside Japan. |

It also shows the Hakone turnpike, so this course is confirmed. | ||

Nagao Fanboy Group: Advanced Members Posts: 2,068 Member No.: 36,182 Joined: Aug 27th 2010 Location: The Internet, DUH | We've seen some of the gameplay but most of us suspect it's not the final physics yet. Location Tests usually don't use the finalized physics of the upcoming game. For example D5 Location Tests used D4 physics back in the day and the finalized version of D5 turned out to be quite different. In addition, there's also the Spec factor since even in the final games in D6/D7/D8, the Full Spec physics turned out to be very different from the early ones. Still it's an interesting look. Personally I wish they brought back the car spec tuning being shown in Race HUD shown during the first D0 trailer. That was an addition I was really looking forward to so I. could know what spec I was facing against mine so I would know whether I was being beaten by tuning or skill. This happens a lot in the early levels of online battles, where some players have finished their upgrades or used D-Coins to get them high.

Project-SS Trueno Driver Group: Advanced Members Posts: 503 Member No.: 37,105 Joined: Mar 10th 2011 Location: Subang | The current physics looks very appealing to me currently. also the steering range has reduced by half? Its not very cool in particular but it does make it less harder to turn fully. (very good for small and weak guys like me in particular Lol). Just from the looks the game does look easy to play. But its still too early to judge. |

It might be for maintenance reasons. Cutting the wheel's range would make it less prone to breaking. | ||

There's another one also from a month ago, this one is now on Irohazaka, which shows the steering wheel and the brake on front. | ||

IDW Full Member Group: Members Posts: 35 Member No.: 41,031 Joined: Apr 4th 2013 Location: Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia | There's good news to those who want to transfer your IDAS8 data to Zero. You need to register your Sega ID first to do so. There are rewards for you when you transfer your IDAS8 card data to Zero. 1. Bonus Driver Points when you start playing Zero based on how many mileage you did during IDAS8. Less than 1,000km = 3,000 points 1,000km to 5,000km = 10,000 points More than 5,000km = 15,000 points 2. A cool looking bonus profile frame to start off. Here's the link: https://zero.sega-initiald.net/inid0/takeover/login Bad News: Currently only available for Japanese users so we might have to wait for a while. Already tried it once BTW.

Nagao Fanboy Group: Advanced Members Posts: 2,068 Member No.: 36,182 Joined: Aug 27th 2010 Location: The Internet, DUH | There's only like 8 courses in the game I think, which sounds massively disappointing. (Hakone, Lake Akina, Usui, Myogi, Akagi, Akina, Irozahaka and Tsukuba) There's two empty slots in the menu UI, but even that brings it up to only 10. By contrast D8 has 16 courses - 15 of those at release before Hakone was unlocked shortly after. Even if we discount Akina Snow and go back to 15, that's still a massive dropoff.

Any idea how many points you need to fully tune a car? If it's the same as D8, then 15,000 points isn't a lot for a card with 5,000km mileage. It would be better to hold onto your D8 card unless you have a few extras lying around.
This is my biggest gripe with the game so far. Momiji Line, Nanamagari, Tsubaki Line and Akina Snow have been removed, and personally I think these are the most fun courses in the game. And for god's sake, why is Lake Akina still in the game? This post has been edited by holnivek on Mar 8 2017, 12:18 PM | ||||

Nagao Fanboy Group: Advanced Members Posts: 2,068 Member No.: 36,182 Joined: Aug 27th 2010 Location: The Internet, DUH | We don't even know whether it would even come to Malaysia to honest. The the RM being weak and all and these beings new machines as opposed to upgrade kits. it would make it a very very expensive. The specific economic and tax environment of the last few years have made it really tough for the local arcade industry. For the moment, there is no word on an EXP release. Doesn't mean there won't be one, just that there's no word on it yet. If it does come to Malaysia, it would take awhile. Not just a short one month wait like D8. Some are speculating end of the year but again we don't have much to go on. This post has been edited by SonicSP on Mar 8 2017, 09:31 PM |

Well no worries it seems that you can switch to D8 tachometer and have the old drift indication, just that it's always gold tho. https://youtu.be/ex8av03aJ14 [ Post made via Mobile Device ] | ||

Nagao Fanboy Group: Advanced Members Posts: 2,068 Member No.: 36,182 Joined: Aug 27th 2010 Location: The Internet, DUH | So from what I hear, in addition to being smaller the D0 steering only turns around 90 degrees. That makes it much closer to the Wangan steering wheel if not the same. For comparison, the current D4-D8 steering wheel turns 270 degrees, about 66% cut if that's true. There's also apparently quite a number of reports in Japan about steering wheel breaking within the first few days of release. This post has been edited by SonicSP on Mar 25 2017, 12:53 AM |
