it's hardly "damp" hell, the image is called "hamilton in monsoon rain" LMAO
as for the images you posed, they show the same thing as mine, loss of detail the further away the subject is from the reflective surface. that is not the case in the F1 game shots, it is a solid reflection. detail the same at the point the wheel hits tarmac to the point of the rear spoiler. reflections on wet tarmac does not work like that. the images you used show that. and the consistency of the reflection certainly wouldnt be like that of the game where distant cars reflections are just as prominent and clear as the cars close up. notice the first image you posted...
the second to last shot for this game is a far more believable, and more impressive reflective wet surface. the last image is a joke.
I agree that the reflections on the road is not realistic (maybe the PC version will have better reflections?), but at least they removed the horrible brown/yellow filter.
You guys are forgetting that these are being rendered on 5-6 year old hardware, and in real-time. Super real reflections are pretty resource hungry- I figured you would cut 'em some slack on that, Korn. It's impressive enough that they have multiple levels of wetness/reflection, IMO.

amen to that.
i cant believe people are arguing saying "It's far too reflective" etc. depending on if the water is standing, if its raining, if someone has just driven through it....

Commented on 2011-09-03 16:34:03UC3 has the best water fx other then crysis.
This game is 30fps on consoles.
GT5 - FORZA4 are 60fps.
These two would look amazing at 30fps and look alot better then dirt/grid/f1 imo.

which is a far cry from what the game is producing. Unless of course the track has become so wet it has turned into a lake...a very still lake.
