Why are you in this thread and why did you even try LMU then? lol

to post a bad review on steam, and to test it, I was curious, but I know rF2 is far superior, particulary when the rF2 LMU version will arrive ;), but not hyped by wec, far more hyped by the Oulton track missing for the BTCC.

Well that's all relative isn't it? If you're completely new to driving then any other sim would be equally as daunting, even if they're not realistic at all. You'd have to learn it from the ground up either way. If you have some real world driving experience, even if it's just on public roads commuting to work, then you'd know real steering wheels don't shake back and forth for no apparent reason (unless you drive a Jeep), so you'd have some form of reference at least compared to an unrealistic sim.

well driving a real race car on a race track is not really comparable to commuting with a street car….LOL

But I get your point with the driving experience of a Jeep!

IMHO playing rF2 is less forgiving than playing ACC for newbies.

I will NEVER move to LMU simply cause my favorite cars are Porsce 992 cupcar, BTCC, GT3, Caterham, Formula pro, and my favorite tracks are Nordschleife, Brands Hatch, Bathurst.....I'm not a fan of WEC and I'm pretty sure WEC fans are a minority.

Do you know that the users peak of LMU is almost three times the rF2 peak?

Yes, but in rF2 or LMU you're also not driving a real race car on a race track. The major reason why a real race car is difficult to drive in the real world isn't because of the technicality of the driving itself, it's the physical forces you have to deal with. There's a reason why a lot of real world driving coaches for race drivers use under powered road cars to teach fundamentals of driving. Besides, the point was that the basic behavior of a steering wheel is easy to observe in the real world by anyone. Never did I compare a road car to a race car.

I've never actually tried ACC because I don't care much about GT3 cars, so I wouldn't know. I just know that I can drive a real race car, and I can drive rF2, but when I first tried GT7 I was terrible. It took time for me to get used to it because it didn't follow my frame of reference.

rf2 numbers are still the same, and do you know Forza 8, forza horizon 5 and F1 23, or GT7 have 1000x more players than LMU ? and iRacing has 20x more ? so who is the minority ;) ?

40 AI, LMP2 and GTE, omg rFactor 2 is so superior :), not soon to kill rFactor 2.

Doesn't mean there aren't a lot of WEC fans. It's EA, and a new release, concurrent player counts will almost always be highest on or near release for any game, not just this.

It's actually a double edged sword for S397. So many people want instant gratification that they're going to refund an EA game and never try it again, whereas if the game was released super polished and ready to play, those people would likely have kept the game. If you like rF2 so much, you better hope they don't lose too many players in LMU, because then rF2 will likely not get much if any updates in the future. Unless it gets sold off yet again.

yes, we will see if it can keep a lot of players, cause with rF2 I have already all I need.

rF2 at this state is all I need, the only game I will need will be rFactor3, not an rF2 WEC mod.....I'm fully satisfied with rF2, with a simucube 2, it's the best game made for it ;)

I think we don‘t speak about the same thing (while using the same words).
Never mind.

Have fun Sim Racing!
