I choose Europe just because most European countries/cities have much more interesting highway and architecture designs.

Though if the next Driver game is only in one city like DPL I would rather see a North American city just because I live in NA. But if the game has multiple cities then I want to see one in Europe. I assume this poll is for possible cities for the next Driver game...right.

Well in Europe they are no Muscle Cars :(

That's why hopefull they'll be more than 1 city (2 or 3 would be nice) in the next Driver game. Luxury Sedans and Sports cars are better than Muscle cars anyways.

But you have nothing to worry about, there for sure will be a NA city and Muscle cars in the next Driver. I mean, a Driver game without muscle cars? That'll never happen.

No… look first you choos the continent. In 2 days the poll is over. Then in a topic wich I'll create you'll say about 20 cities (20 together) that you want (from the continent that wins) and then the most wanted city (10) are gonna be in a new poll. =)

No this is not a technique to get points, this is the technique to find the best city(s) in an intelligent way.

edit: I edited this post and then I were awarded 9.999999999 -e/* (something like that) points. This is a bug wich has to be corrected.

Its hard to decde hummmmmm....
I thinks that a newer place would be gooder,
in the past its been in:
Miami:Driv3r
Istanbul:Driv3r
Nice:Driv3r
New York:DPL
Los Angles:Driver L.A. Undercover
Same as Driv3r:Driv3r Moible
Chicago:Driver 2
Havana:Driver 2
Rio: Driver 2
Las Vegas:Driver 2
Las Vegas:Driver Vegas
???????:Driver The Fifth

What goes there? If you ask me Miami Has been used up,
I think Europe or a Japense loction would be nice.
But *cough*Vegas on a Consle would be awsome!*cough*

Dude, are you serious? Driver 2 had 4 cities: Chicago, Havana, Rio and....Las Vegas!

But yeah, A city from Europe should be included, but Japan, I don't know, Tanner doesn't really fit well there, maybe if the next Driver had a whole new character or something. Then it could be possible buy I don't really see it happening.

Points require content :P
anyways this bug really isn't a bug.
It's pure mathematics, you made that smaller change in your post that the system doesn't know what to do so it changes a very little value and it turns out to {what you call bug}.

It's kind of complicated, I could always tell the system to ignore 10 characters post or changes.

My Choice
I have chosen Europe because it's a really unique Continent. Plus as moonchild said some of the architecture is amazing and there is a wide variaty of places. Run down places like Turkey to were reflections is based in NewCastle.

I never choose North America because we once again want to see something unique and basically other game developers have covered most of the north American areas and it pretty much always feels the same.

and it's always good to not see urban cities all the time, and reflections wouldn't have to worry about too much traffic keeping it realistic while pleasing gamers.

and we would extend into real regional areas :P

CA isint a contient, Austraila is though

Yea, good point DPLkicksASS. Oceania is also not a continent, its a sort of general area... and Antarctica is also a continent :P but i can't see stolen cars being shipped to Antarctica lol

I don't think the game should be confined to one continent. I really liked the first three driver games having more than one city; it added variety. I also think that they shouldn't all be in America (go DRIV3R!!!!!!). South America, Africa and Australia are pretty unexplored areas in terms of this kind of game, I'd love to see a Driver game set in one or all of these places in the future. But I still like Europe as a setting, and a city in America is a good place to start the game.

So basically I think it is important to have more than one city, with a bit of variety between them. And I would like to see at least one city from a continent never used in this type of game before.

I refuse to vote! I just want, that in new Driver there were 3-4 cities from different places on a planet. America, Europe, Asia, South America and Ocenia. For example:
Miami
London
Tokyo
Rio
Melbourn
Or something in this sort...
Different cultures, different atmospheres, many new sensations. Driver 2 and Driv3r have perfectly consulted with mixture of the American cities and not American. Havana, Rio, Nice and Istanbul were looked is fresh and interesting!

I want an american city :) Let's say one we never had, for example Washington, Philadekphia, Seattle, San Diego, Detroit or Atlanta …

I think instead to have 4 Citys, it would be cool to have a State :) With some little Citys and villages, and so you can Driver from City to City with the car ! I think that's cool :)

Posted: Mon Aug 27, 2007 6:26 pm

San Diego, Detroit, Washington
all have nothing all that interesting about them.
and They have been used in titles like Midnight Club 3 and Midtown Madness 3. :P

also a state would be a great idea, I've always wanted to play a game where it is almost a complete state and it can take you a couple of minutes to get to each town or it could be realistic and take 20 to an hour.

Posted: Mon Aug 27, 2007 6:33 pm
by Coyote
lol but then the state must be very very big…

I imagine you need about 1 real hour to the other city when you drive normaly. And imagine your car is wrecked, something with the engine doesnt work and you're on the right side of the streets and nobody comes to help you… this is cool, like in a movie :)

Imagine another thing: Your driving on a highway and your car needs fuel so you take the next exit to a Service Station and a Resteurant, you refuel the car, and you continu driving to the next city… ! And it would be cool if they are Radars on the highways, and if you drive too fast you get a bill
