REDRIVER 2 - 1st Anniversary! (Comparison, Evolution, Future)

ReDriver2 is the reflection of actual love and proper care put onto something we once loved dearly. It puts the GTA Trilogy Demasters to shame, let me tell you.

Now this is what a proper remaster looks like.

Bilinear interpolation, increased vertex precision and some kind of dynamic shadow system would elevate this game to a whole new level, without necesarily slowing it down on decent systems.

Anniversary? Man time flies! REDriver was the best thing to happen in the Driver community along with the remastered soundtrack and Syndicate.

Hard to think it's been a whole year since REDRIVER 2 released publically and how much coverage it got across the web but then again when you do a remaster correctly and improve the game whilst keeping the original release in tact this is the result. The coverage made by yourself definitely emphasises how great the game is as a whole plus there was the matter of beta content being readded, mod packs for missions and even a co-op style mode being possible for the main game too :D I haven't done a speedrun of this game for a while but it definitely put some life back into the game when this released and thanks to the findings of several community members including The_Surviv0r and Red_Ricky it really brought the game into it's own away from the standard PS1 release. One of the things I've been wondering (Don't know if it's possible or worth it) is a REDRIVER port for the original Driver game as I recall that having framerate problems of it's own and would be really cool to see that get it's own remaster of some sorts (Personally a REDRIVER port of the original game would be better than the PC version that originally got released as the physics worked better in the PS1 version compared to PC IMO) Awesome video and long live the Driver community! :D

A month or two before ReDriver2 was officially released, I was able to get access to it. Ever since then its crazy to see how far ReDriver2 came and it brings back nostalgia for me. Awesome video Vortex and I'm glad Soapy can keep the Driver series alive with these projects!

Holy cow! This looks awesome! I need this in my life! I leave you a huge like!

Damn! Check out Vortex in the ol' Tanner outfit. Driver 1 cosplay when? For real tho, I love how it doesn't end with ReDriver2 either. Open Driver to still look forward to, as well!

Nice work !!!!

I really like that the clip you showed for the Altmodpack where you say it's done by an expert player ends with me crashing in a lone pole haha! Beau travail sur la vidéo en passant!

Great work

suited up for the anniversary 👏

Game Trivia: Did you know theres only a one hour and thirty mins train ride between the studio that produced the Driver games and the studio that produced the GTA series

Better than the GTA Trilogy Definitive Edition thats for sure. Nice suit too by the way! Love the music playing too!

Thank you for making my dream come true, i have wait for long to see driver 2 is in pc port, thank you for make it happen

Tá muito melhor que o GTA trilogy

What a awesome remaster ,for an awesome game ! Give me absolut nostagia , i used to love this game back in the time 😍

Option to lock fps to 24 frames for movie would be great tho. I rock solid 24 fps with no slow downs unlike og game fluctuating between 12 to 24ish fps.

I always wanted to see driver 2 gameplay from how the graphics of the cutscenes are as in porting it into unreal engine or any good engine and redoing everything from the ground up model wise, I understand it would be time consuming redoing a classic but I think it would be worth it. Playing it as a kid comparing the cutscenes to the actual gameplay made me wish that they would remaster it to have that type of detail and style while keeping the quirks and mechanics of the original.
