| NFS C: Interview with Michael Mann (GC) |
Thursday, 24.08.2006 |
 The onlinemagazine IGN made an interview with Michael Mann, Producer at EA Black Box.
Here is a short excerpt:
 After a player has picked their car how much can they customise it?
Michael Mann: When Need for Speed Underground came out it was at the forefront of car customisation - there were hundreds of different car parts and ways to use them together. So over the last two years we thought about what we could do to take it to the next level and what we came up with was 'morphable' body parts - sections of the cars that can be pulled, pushed and twisted to create an almost limitless number of ways to customise a car. Each car is broken into ten zones that can be changed, so a player can alter the size and shape of anything, from adjusting the size, depth and angle of spoilers down to small details like changing the number of spokes on the rims. At the moment these modifications are purely visual, they don't affect the handling or performance of the car, but we are looking into how we could incorporate it.
It's not just body shaping that's been improved either, right?
Michael Mann: We've also introduced vector-scoping for Carbon, which allows the player to put decals on any part of the car, not just certain sections. They can be scaled, rotated and merged together, plus there are over 900 to choose from, as well as 90,000 paint combinations, so a player really can create any look they want.
Additionally IGN published some new screenshots of the next-gen version of Need for Speed Carbon.
