Did You Ever Notice?

- If you park at the end of a dead-end street you'll see racers appear out of thin air. Well, a puff of smoke is more like it. A good place to witness this is at your Mililani "Haven of Peace" residence. (near middle of map)

- Your steering wheel may cast a shadow on the seat beside you, but your arms and body never do.

- The reflections in the windows of buildings don't show what's in front of them. They show other buildings - even if there are no buildings there. This can easily be seen on the northwest coast on buildings facing the ocean.

1: Knew that..

2. Arms don't appear as the steering wheel is part of the car not body

3. Reflections are just a texture not live.. Also known as a 'Cubemap' :cheeky:

If u mean BOT racers in the singleplayer mode, then yeah. Human players appears when spawning in front of u in the same manner. It would be much better if cars spawn in some hidden spaces (public garages maybe?) so we can't actually see them 'puffing' ;)

But u can also notice no traffic car can be seen at the dead-end roads and never spawn there. Theirs favorite place for this is right in front of u when doing 100mph....:cheeky:

Of course, real mirrors would decrease the frame rate drastically, everyone would need a monster CPU for such an irrelevant feature. It would be cool to see ur reflection in some shop-window though ;)
