Project CARS 2 General Discussion Thread - Out Now on PS4/XB1/PC

[05XR8]

Look how daunting that is! I'll use something a wee bit slower... like a Clio Cup. Amazing!

Based on what we saw at Le Mans this year I feel neither LMP1 car - Porsche or Toyota - deserve to be in pCARS 2 for a while...

I expect a pack with 919 2017 Edition and TS050 along Interlagos perhaps. It will 100% be DLC.

There surely will be more surprises down the road. And one of the few very good things in PC1 was that the DLC was very fresh with brand new cars.

I wouldn't be surprised to see the 919 Hybrid 2017 but I would be amazed to see the TS050-HYBRID 2017 ever arrive. Toyota are far more guarded in their technology. Remember for PCars they wouldn't share any hybrid details with SMS.

I am happy to be proven wrong though.

hello Ian
Thanks for all the answers, and for the great work you are doing.

some questions:
1: you can change car setup during the race?

2: the problems have been resolved to the replay?

3: the maximum number of pilots per room will always be 16?

4: Contacts between the cars have been improved?

Thanks in advance...

Would love for them to increase the number for online lobbies

I've seen this reply many times, but I swear I've restarted a career race because of a stupid 1st lap mistake or something, and had different weather.
Eg. 1st time - light rain, 2nd time - no rain

Some invitational events have random weather.

huh?
The lobbies are created by the users or leagues that can use the DS.

Didn't users create lobbies in consoles? I know DS is not available for consoles.

He means the number of players. It is 16 for console. He's saying it would be good for that number to go up.

having bigger number of players in online races on consoles would be nice 24 - 32 would be perfect.

Even 20 would be good!

Yehh, multi class online racing would be much better if it was increased.

We have plenty of cars for the GT3 class. Hope there is a full roster of GT4 after these: Cayman, X-Bow, G55, M3, Mustang 302R & RTR, GT-86.

This being one of them.

The Maserati Gran Turismo MC GT4 is a great drive in Assetto Corsa. Once you get used to the snappy brakes it is huge fun and the noise is intoxicating too.

I wonder where is problem on consoles. I know P2P connection can by painfully bad, but.... GT Sport and/or Forza have 24 online players count doesn't it? And P2P connection, and pretty demanding graphics, so this is not consoles fault. I hope they manage to do this in console port of Project Cars 2

Damn, i love this GT4 car. I hope we will see it in Project Cars 2 even as a DLC.

I've only driven the one in Forza6. It would be epic

Why's that? Toyota had a mix of mechanical issues and poor judgements (not that that should be held against them), but Porsche fought from the back as 1 member put it right:

Doesn't mean something deserves it because a person thinks it does. Porsche worked hard, over came an issue like many before them have at Le Mans and won. Doesn't get more deserving and ultimately earning it, than that.

 

[Gr8_Lakes]

Also I saw you @Animera post in one of those PCars1 topics about a new FFB settings you came upon that's really good. Is it just stronger and what not or were you trying to make it like Assetto Corsa which others have tried as well?

I was trying to get a better road feel like AC has without just turning up the FFB strength.
The setting I posted give me more feeling of subtle effects, while the FFB strength is not overpowering.
It made a huge difference to the feel of the game..

May I ask where I might find these settings? I'd love something that feels closer to Assetto Corsa.

Which wheel do you use?

 

[DesertPenguin09]

G29

 

[crowhop]

Yeah, well, just like your adorable idea of cold

P.S. Don't forget... We Canadians are all homeless 6 months of the year..... Every time our igloos melt....

This is so solid. Our 'snow days' are when we get maybe 1" and get to be off work. It is marvelous.

Just ordered a GTX 1080 ti so I can run this with high settings in VR. Can't wait!

Great to know that Rallycross driver Oliver Eriksson is doing some driving/testing for PCars2 today 👍

 

[eruvadhor]

Do we have a thread here with the confirmed information about the game ? like the Forza7 thread ? i dont find one

The Q&A has a great range of information about the game.

 

[eruvadhor]

yes i know, but all information are spread out up to 70+ pages and not consolidated to one page like the Forza thread.

Looks a good idea. I'll see what I can do.

this would be very nice there are so many confirmed good features in this thread but no one knows that because they are not reading the 70+ pages.

I've made a reasonable start on it. Obviously not finished but feel free to let me know your thoughts.
