Just started to have a try at the career after just doing single races since getting pcars2. Tried that 1st manufacfurer event for Porsche at Azure with the carrera gt. Bit of a weird match to me but ok. Well lot of fun once you learn the rollercoaster track, almost makes me feel vertigo hehe. Im liking the car too, just sound could be a little grittier, especially in replay. Too bad on std ps4 the replays are a little bit of a mess sometimes, lacking a clean smooth stable solid look, mostly the environment including shadows textures..Maybe moreso at Azure.
Also noticed when you put on the telemetry overlay for wear and temps you get some screen tearing, but it's fine after off it. The gameplay from cockpit is pretty clean smooth though.
At least i can make things smoother by selecting different timeofday and weather.
And replays sometimes look pretty damn cool, lifelike or like a real tv shot or film.
Anyone know when i do a quick race it shows vehicule best time of friends, but i choose a few different cars and it shows exact same time for a specific friend. Its for sure not correct. Even if it was for the class, seems i got that also with different class cars. Is it bugged or means something else?
Also it be cool if they had a little history and info on each car with historic or recent vids.
Is there a way to reset an event?
I went in quick race to try more runs at Azure with the carrera gt and the setup name is the same but it feels alot worse now. I checked the track temp and ambient to try match it more closely. But still same, maybe because its adjusted to that track in the event even if uses my setup. I don't know.
Too bad when you win it just unlocks new events but can't rerun the same one i just won. To check setup and also just to up the a.i. and try again.
Edit: lol sorry it's the spyder918 in the 1st Porsche invite, no wonder it feels different.
i think I'm going senile.
or the game is starting to make me lose my mind.
Edit2: just tried 2nd manufacturers drive for Porsche, they don't go easy on you lol, race in wet with a 935 77.
That thing kicks like a mule when turbo awakes in 1st, i kicked my foot on my base pedal when i almost lost it 1st time i drove out the pits lol, on dry track.
I have to say it's amazingly immersive, the cockpits so nice, with nice lighting and shadows inside, the weather, the sound in that car, even the wipers sound and look is so nicely made, and the feel of the car believable, even the ai often is.
Got to keep wet tires warm in rain too, makes a good difference if just a little less optimal temp. When they are less than optimal, almost need to short shift before the turbo kicks in lol.
Pretty impressed and cool, i should have started before these career events rather than just do any single races.
Edit3: i wish cars like the f40 would have gotten a sound update, pretty pitifull lol. Oh well.
Edit 4: the f40 lm has a little better sound, and the f50gt not bad sound except in replays. Many ferraris though sound electronic. It be so much cooler to watch replays with good sound too. Also i like the old spa track but it looks pretty bad especially in replays lol. Only the lighting saves it a little.
