Ae86 gtr2 mod upgrade#
"Put JDM bumpers on it!" This was a mantra that I repeated over and over to the SMS game production crew as they got ready to design and build the AE86 body kits… And thankfully they listened… This is the first thing that happens to your Corolla as you start to upgrade the body. The point of Speedhunters is to showcase cool automotive content, and as I type this post, I'm hopeful (although a little nervous as I did work on this game too) that you are going to like what you see.

Speedhunters features model and RC cars from time to time, so why not also show some game car projects from the NFS mothership too. I've been spending a bit of time recently playing with the finished game and have become rather addicted ot it! So rather than just disappear from view for the next week, I'm also going to use these gaming sessions to make some blog content. It's not perfect so please don't nit-pick but overall it's the beginning of a new chapter. So I'm very happy to tell you that we have a whole new approach and visual style for the in-game cars for SHIFT. Due to time and licensing constraints, we decided to make fictional kits, but we tried to keep them in tune with the latest thinking and styles. So last year, as the Need for Speed SHIFT project was gaining momentum, we knew that we had to throw out the vast majority of the old 3D body kits and start over. We also had a situation whereby our old "rice" style wide body kits were being recycled from year to year, even though tastes had moved on. And rightly so, it was the nature of the way that the 3D car models were created in the old games, that ended up with the same basic group of kit designs being used across all the various cars, irrespective of the model. In the early days of Speedhunters, whenever the subject matter of Need for Speed came up, it became clear that you guys thought we suffered from bad car style.
