    Most of my pals using VR now but noved from steam VR
    We’ve all pretty much using Open XR now

    so although we are running something like rfactor2 on steam , steam VR is not activated
    So those figures are not VR users (running titles on steam ) but steam VR app users only

    VR usage on steam surveys is extremely hit and miss and with the sheer numbers of users, plus games that don't support VR, the numbers will always be low.

    But anyway, that/this argument has been done to death.

    Can't understand people who are against any feature.
    If it's optional anyone can choose to use it or not depending on his likes or hardware.
    Is good for everyboby.

    One month and two days away. Will be a insta purchase for me if the price isn't too crazy.

    Me too.
    It sounds a bit "fanboy" TBH but I only got into sim racing ( and computer gaming) when I got rF2 when Le Mans 2020 was cancelled and I got an email about the virtual event.
    Since then I've tried iRacing, ACC, AC, RRE and RennSport... but always return to rF2, so I hope that LMU is basicaly the same.

    It looks perfect in my opinion. Maybe will buy if I'll ever live up to having money to buy better pc too. Mine is already 8years old and it was mid range when was new.

    Done on purpose to entice future console users I suspect.

    That may be, but i don't understand why he answered that to my Post:
    "If this will be the default Cockpit View, i hope that there is enough adjustment Range, to move it into a "real Life" Position."

    WHAT... Just wait a second.... NO VR???...

    My emotion for the game just went down the toilet... the whole point for me buying it was to enjoy it in VR like the rest of my mains sims...
    and yes...

    NO VR... NO BUY...

    Have no buy a car game or sim that does not support VR since my oculus CV1.. and no... I dont have the space and the will to setup a triple monitor setup, VR is perfect for my needs.

    I have tried several of the most popular sims, AC, RaceRoom, Project Cars 2 and rfactor 2. I can tell you in my opinion rfactor 2 is by far the best one for gamepad, it's not even a question. Once you calibrate your controls and learn how to drive smoothly, gamepad in rf2 feels fantastic. Then you hear people online talking about rf2 being unplayable on gamepad etc. I'm sorry but it's just a bunch of nonsense.

    If a game works great with a gamepad or not has nothing to do with the physics and the simulation aspect of the game, it has to do with how well the controls are implemented into the game. In rf2 you can precisely fine tune how your controller input corresponds to actual output in the game, and you can make it non-linear with a graph as well. The only other game I have seen doing this is RBR, which also drives really well on a gamepad.

    These games are obviously best enjoyed with a proper steering wheel, but they can still be very enjoyable with a gamepad. I don't see why anyone would buy forza for instance, when you can buy rf2 and have a much better experience, even with a gamepad. It's a bit sad that they probablyl lost many customers due to the Internet falsely labelling this game as unplayable on gamepad.

    Anyway, if Le Mans Ultimate improves it even more, thats obviously great. I'm sure there are many people that wants to enjoy a proper racing sim but are unable to get a steering wheel. Maybe it's too expensive, maybe you are handicapped or are iinjured, maybe you don't have the space at home to have a proper setup or maybe you are just lazy and prefer a more relaxed approach.

    The game comes out in a month. Anyone saying what it has or hasn't got, apart from those quoting actual released information, is taking guesses. Wait for the game before spitting that dummy out.
