I'll buy the steam version so the trial period is only 2 hours. I thought there was something wront with the setup or some other thing after that gripless feeling of OW car in demo. I did raise the gripping up to 15x and ran a few more AI but feeling is about the same. too slidy and feels unrealistic. thats my opinion, I am not saying its better or worse than any sim. its just how it feels.
that kid is either hulk or ffb is off, or my g27 is crazily strong. trust me, if she drove my g27 she would get her hands broken in the first turn. seriously. I've been simracing for 5 years but my g27 is quite new. its only a few months old. maybe you guys' worn out gears arent giving you the force I am getting right now?
I'll probably get this, only to not miss out on this one. however old, its one of the best sims after all.
I am a legitimate guy who just wants information about rf, whereas you are the very first ones who wrote in this thread to bash ac. I did not ask for your opinion about ac. also you are the one who said on steam "if you want to crash buy ac, for real sim buy rf2" etc. if you believe in the quality of the product you have, you dont need to bash other sims. if I would need negative replies about rf i would go to steam's bad reviews instead of coming here. I never asked for your personal opinion about why rf is better than ac, I asked why should I get rfactor, and what was wrong with the gripless feeling I had. but you out of nowhere started saying "ac canned effects" etc. thats totally your opinion.
I have already told you about it. there is a reason they called it isi 2.5 - because its pretty much same software. different software would have been called isi 3. I dont imagine them changing the whole thing and still calling it an evolved version of the same motor.
you are still holding on to that then? I dont really care if you cant take honest criticism from a new player.
there are alot of talks about rf2 that quality of content differs alot and that while you could feel bad in one car you could love the other. so I am thinking there might be really good cars out there. though I didnt like both of the cars in demo. didnt try the old one.
so I thought different cars would feel different and I could find more with the full purchase.
ac does not make the cars easier to drive by going away from being a sim. I've been playing it ever since early 2013 and a hard car was hard back then too. it didnt go easier one bit. ac does not do that I know because there are really difficult old cars, and they are easier cars. that tells me its just the difference among cars. in fact its easy to keep any new car on track as long as you are just driving around and not pushing.
in OW cars, its still hard to control the throttle, but I have 5 years of experience in simracing and I have done alot of karting and been to many trackdays where I pushed the limits and I know what racing is about. that should count as something. but I struggle and dont feel the grip on that reno ow car. the thought that less grip is always more realistic is wrong. whereas in real life its totally different. I assume each one of you have driving licenses. can any of you tell if you ever have spun for meters while just driving? I go fast even in public roads and I have never had such a gripless feeling. for a car to start spinning tyres should lose contact with the road. its either muddy or wet road or your tyres are very very old or the road is very dusty but still a car wouldnt slide around for meters(unless wet). let alone the car I drove is an open wheel car, designed for downforce and grip. how do I not lose control in my regular car and just cant keep the car on track on a simple uphill? without even applying throttle or not locking up the brakes?
so I think you are wrong thinking that ac "makes the cars easy to drive" no the most cars ARE easy to drive unless you are pushing the absolute limits or dont know what you are doing. I can name 30 official cars in ac where a new guy wouldnt be able to complete his first lap.
and thanks for the throttle tip but I think I know how to driveI could upload one lap here and talk about the problems but couldnt find out how to save the replay.
I hope you are aware how you sound like and how you come across here and why people are so let's call it "reserve" towards you. I was following this thread from the beginning. Just letting you talk. I like when people talk a lot. It makes easier to find out how full of crap they are.
I would gladly have a discussion with you, hours of words exchanging. unfortunately I know your kind and I know how will it end. I'm a pragmatic man so I'm not willing to spend highly valuable time on sth that won't lead to anything. My dad used to say: There's nothing wrong in being wrong, but everything is wrong in deciding on keeping being wrong. Food for thought for you. I hope you will appreciate another proverb that I was given when I was little: "smart man always doubts himself".
