How about coming over to PC for Assetto Corsa Competizione, the future of GT3 racing .
-
It’s a shame they’ve never built in Friends leaderboards or something to support multiplayer leagues/championships. Perhaps they feel it would hit their FIA stuff etc.
-
I’ll try and get on just after 20:30.

Was interesting racing in the dailies, TT Cup seemed to be car of choice, I was in WRX. TT was faster on straights but I was better on brakes and faster through corners/esses. Made for a fun race as all my overtakes had to be under braking or round the outside . No fuel or tyre wear though and only 4 laps. Lambos are also fast but looked trickier to control or people were running without TC. Generally my race pace was much better than quali position suggested, keep it on the track and you generally move up a few places by default without having to overtake anyone.

I’m up for giving GR3 Interlagos a go this week.

Had about 5 or 6 quality daily races round Suzuka in Gr 4, amazing bumper to bumper action, pretty clean. Stay on the road and pick them off is my motto . Of course I knocked 6 tenths off my quali pace to get a 2.10.2 and thought, yes I’ll start in top 3 or 4 so good chance of a race win, nope 14th out of 16 in next race, bloody GTS. Got my DR going in the right direction again at least. Maybe we should give Gr 4 a go in the next championship, they’re very driveable so should make for some good close racing.

Assetto Corsa is the best I’ve played, although I’ve only played on PC not PS4. GTS is ok, a bit muted in terms of feel but best GT has ever been imo. Agreed, I’ve always wondered why Codies FFB hasn’t improved all these years, ever since I’ve had a CSR I’ve had to use a different profile on the wheel for Codies and only Codies. I’ve just started F1 2017 again with a wheel since I got a Drivehub for PS4 and generally it’s ok, it gets a bit light in some corners but at least road effects are there and I can generally tell what’s going on. Yes it sounds as though the FFB is generally ok but road effects are missing. Is tarmac any better, reading conflicting reports, is there any more grip to it than DR1?
-
Agreed, £74.99 for the PS4 Digital Deluxe version is just crazy (as is £54.99 for standard), not sure if they thought it’s niche and won’t sell much so we need to charge early adopters/fans as much as possible but after On Rush I’d have thought a new strategy was required. Dirt 1 felt like a bit of a fan project, Dirt 2 feels very commercial, fair enough, they’re in it to make money but I just think their strategy is wrong for this title.
-
Perhaps but not really as ultimately it’ll be cheaper when I do get it. If there had been no RaceNet or FFB issues I’d have bought Deluxe early release or whatever they call it, so it’s Codies that are losing out at the moment.
-
Good to hear you’ve improved FFB, I won’t buy it until they patch it though as I spent more time farting around with FFB files in PCars1 than playing it and don’t want to go down that road again. Hopefully they’ll patch soon as I’m itching to play it. In the meantime, now that I’ve got a DriveHub for PS4 I’ve resurrected F1 2017 and I’m really enjoying it with a wheel.
-
Yep, went fully live yesterday.
-
I thought it was my wheel initially , it was so light, so I tried Wales and realised it wasn’t! Codemaster’s have a least said they’re looking at FFB so maybe there is some issue they can patch. It would be good to know from @McSpeed or anyone who was on beta or had review version if the release version feels any different?
-
There’s a lot of talk about lack of road feel, how smooth it is, how there’s more surface feel (bumps) in F1 etc.? With the track deformation, do you feel the pull of ruts on the wheel? What about the roughness of the terrain, do you feel the bumps? I just played through Germany in DR1, I forgot how bad the tarmac stages were in that, are they any better in this?
-
If RaceNet is holding up today then hopefully they’ve fixed it, now just the surface FFB and I might buy it.
-
Yep but they don’t need that in single player career.
