Project Cars 2

I know probably like me, you tried project cars 1, enjoyed a lot
about the polish of the game, but the physics just sucked. I
really didn't hold out much hope for this with Project Cars 2,
as their focus is really on the console game pad uses, which by
far is the majority of their players, but it seems there are
more and more reviews indicating that there have been a lot of
improvements.

I played it be to build a project Cars 1. I thought it sucked
major dick and never went back to Play It Again. To me it was
nothing more than a really good looking console game. It did not
qualify as a Sim per se. Maybe they learned their lesson from
all of the negative reviews regarding their physics and the game
being a simcade. But realistically I don't see them going after
the niche market of Hardcore simmers. There's not a lot of money
in it compared to the console casual racing person.

Yeah Tech, I watched that vid too. That guy hated PCars 1 so
that says a lot to me. I won't jump out and buy it September
22nd but I will buy it if the revirews continue to be positive
from the sim community. If it can be better than Assetto in the
way it feels, it would probably become my go-to sim. RF2 is
untouchable when at it's best, but even now that seldom happens.
It's not even jist the graphics, but TRACK ACCURACY is a huge
factor for immersion and RF2 fails so miserably in both those
aspects.
I do have doubts that the leopard changed it's stripes though.
Pcars felt almost exactly like Shift 2 <-- NOT a compliment.

I played quite a bit of Project Cars (Pee Cars), and from what I
understand the physics, AI and other aspects of the game were
vastly improved with time after release. They also vary in
quality from car to car. I would agree they are not even close
to what RF2 is (especially with the URD mod), and requires a ton
of FFB setting tweaking to even get it reasonable. Still, once I
figured it out I had a bunch of fun with the game. It's
definitely more of a sim than an arcade or console style game,
and the AI is among the best out there. The career mode, while a
bit thin was still pretty fun.
Excited to see what they do with Pee Cars 2, the car and track
list looks pretty awesome.

rFactor and pCARS tracks take the top spot for worst overall
track accuracy so don't hold your breath for anything which they
haven't obtained laser/survey data, or even a CAD model :P. And
apparently a bunch of silly stuff that happened on pC1 (car
physics-related) still happens in pC2 although there have been
very quick patches to it.... which leads me to believe those are
stop-gap gizmos as we've seen in rF2, which means it's not
addressing the whole simulation aspect (tire, suspension,
whatever) but instead forcing the game to have certain things
behave within a certain spectrum in certain occasions. TL:DR -
oddities will keep happening, exploits will keep being found.
What you need to look for is whether they have addressed the
proper game glitches still plaguing the current version. It just
lacked so much polish on top of bad handling.

More from pCars 2 that sounds amazing, lets hope rF2 can add
some more polish.

In my opinion there are only two "simulations" out there
currently. IRacing and rfactor 2, and until iracing fixes its
B.S. tire physics I will consider it JUNK. Graphics... Graphics
take a back seat to physics. Physics is the most important part
of a sim to me. Laser scanned tracks. I don't need laser scanned
tracks, as long as the tracks we are supplied with come close.

Can't deny it, this interests me. Never tried project cars 1.
This reminds me, where are all the weather updates that were
mentioned being developed to rf2?...

I like P Cars one will likely get this one too. off this week
and next will ask Ari what it is like. I just missed the beta :)
racing wise think RF2 the better was look of P Cars and tracks
are very good with DX11 out i have not tried P Cars for a while

I would definitely not recommend going back to pCars 1. It was
a great 'sim-cade' game that got me into sim racing and help me
learn the tracks, a little about car set up, a lot about league
racing and racing etiquette, etc. However, as others have said
even bad car mods in rF2 are significantly better than the best
car mods in pCars 1, the feel and physics now leave me cold. I
don't have any confidence that they will get to rF2 levels of
FFB, however, I have to believe that they will improve
significantly, and if they do, with all the other features this
game will offer, I for sure will give it ago and maybe get back
into some league racing with it.
