On: CryEngine 3 soft-body physics simulator

When I was watching the demo, I couldn't help thinking how annoying GTA would get if I wrote off my car like that every time I hit something.

Realism is interesting, but like you say - it's not always going to be as much fun.

Wait, but you do write off your car like that in GTA?

At least I do. The damage model may not be as realistic, but my cars rarely stay in proper shape for as long as 15 seconds.

Partly because wrecking cars is 70% of the fun in GTA...

And because you're rarely more than 5 seconds away from having a brand new car.
