"Battery Tender Unnecessary" (carac)

It’s very good so far. Looks amazing. I decided to start my career in a familiar place:

This is the “Driver Cam” which is different from straight up “Cockpit”. With this camera things you aren’t really concentrating on are out of focus and the things you are concerned about are (the road in front of you, the cars, etc.). The helmet turns to focus on the coming apex, independent of the car (which is where you should be looking in a corner). Loving it.

I’d pick it up if I had a wheel. But silly Frys’ Electronics didn’t have them in stock.

I don’t really know much about it, but how does it compare to iRacing?

Trying to accomplish different things? Comparable?

how do the physics feel compared to the shift series?

Does the handling model bare any resemblance to Need for Speed Shift’s? Because these clowns have been going on about pedigree and Shift and Shift 2 are the only recognizable games they’ve ever developed. And they handled like driving through pudding.

Very close. The thing I’m noticing most is that they appear to “get” momentum, moment of inertia, and shifting weight more than other games. I’m sure some people will say it feels “sluggish” but anyone who’s actually driven a car on a track knows what I’m talking about. i.e. Cars don’t immediately respond perfectly to an input at speed, the car’s weight shifts, the suspension loads up, and then the car responds.

A lot better. And a lot more adjustable. Shift 2 “felt” a lot worse than this. It’s pretty good and it’s the best looking car game out.

i might have to pick this one up and give it a try

Is this really real time/real weather for the location?

How is the force feedback and how do the physics compare to something like Assetto Corsa? Also pls post more AE86.

I decided to do the zero to hero career. Bad move. The karts control terribly on a pad and the racing is really boring but best to get it out of the way first I guess.

HAHAHA Holy crap the Lotus 49 is GP Legends all over again.

I really like this game. I just need to be able to do custom liveries.

Here’s what I would like to know: how does it sound? How’s the AI? Are the GT3 and GTE cars good?

I can’t wait to get this for Ps4, and sometime in the future PC.

It’s a completely different physics engine.

It’s a completely different physics engine. Plus there’s atleast a few people on the team who have worked on GTR2.
