Project CARS 3: General Discussion Thread - Out August 28th, 2020 on XB1/PS4/PC

[IfAndOr]

What's the physics going to be like with a full grid, hopefully not like PCars2 where it goes awful

Well hopefully that's one of the things they have improved on. As I said the CPU should have a little more headroom to "think" about the physics.

A game is not made for you ? No problem... Just get over it..! More luck next time...

I´m so happy that Pcars3 is different... As WMD member i have 2x Pcars... I don´t need a 3rd one on current gen that will basically just be Pcars 2.25...

 

[Chikane_GTR]

Wonder why they haven't said anything on pre orders and the extra stuff with pre order?

 

[MroczMR]

to be honest. I think this is the main reason why they simplified tyre physics.
There will be less things to calculet when temperature of tyres is constant.

I believe we are only 1week out from a full car list. I'm going by memory here, but I believe it was 2 weeks ago Nathan Bell said in 3 weeks get a car list

And what happened to a hot lap video every day?

The current plan is to release a new video every week, not day.

 

[NaRP_Fr]

Why all Project Cars videos are not like this !?

 

[GTPVenomZombie]

I really really hope they end up bringing back the pit stops. Even if they’re moving towards the arcade side of things (which I’m cool with since I have no room for a sim set up). Hope they bring them back into the game.

So it is my bad!

 

[c172fccc]

Nope, it will be a trailer:

Lets hope its a new trailer and it gets the ball rolling.

So today’s livestream was pretty dumb, they showed the same old trailer for F&F. I don’t see the point. My expectations for friday’s Trailer are low now. It might just be the same trailer we’ve seen before.

Yikes

Likewise. One thing I loved about the PC2 car and track list was the excellent diversity and great car classes. Whilst Forza and GT may have more cars, I think the attention to detail in Project Cars made them more enjoyable there. It really seemed like they thought carefully about each car they added and made sure that it would have believable competition although not perfect. I’m a huge fan of some of the older race cars and if they’ve fleshed out the Group C, Can Am and vintage prototype and touring categories, I’d be more than willing to forgive the lack of pit stops. Some welcome additions would be a Jaguar D-Type to compete with the DBR1 and 250 TR. Perhaps a Lola T70 Coupe to compete with the 917 and 512. McLaren M20, Lola T70 Spyder and McLaren M1B to improve the Can-am class (although they may have to add a pre-1970 and post 1970 class) and an Aston Martin AMR1 and Mazda 767B in the Group C class. That’s only 7 cars yet I would buy the game instantly if they’re all added. The inevitable DLC could also take these classes to the next level.

The new gameplay also raised my expectations a little. The track scenery looks a lot more detailed with TV screens and tents scattered around. The car also sounds a lot less computer generated when compared to PC2. If that detailing has been applied to all the historic tracks and sound adjustments made to all the classic and modern machinery, I think we could have a pretty fun and immersive title on our hands. Makes the loss of pit stops that bit more painful though since the improvements could have been carried there too, but who’s to say they can’t add them further down the line or in the next instalment. Still need more gameplay to make a decision though but I’m cautiously optimistic.

What a great post! - Agree 100% !

Now this sounds nice.

And I am too old for this „game vs game“.

I buy Pcars 3, Forza 8 and later GT7 and I just want to have a good time with each of these games.

And I actually like the new „way“ of pcars with lvl system and stuff.

Their biggest mistake would be to delay the game because as I said no Forza in sight this time, the stage us entirely theirs.

Last time they released one or 2 weeks earlier then Forza and of course that hurt their sales.

 

[Sentry87]

I'm so scare that pcars 3 wont have the p1 gtr that i keep telling myself that why wont it? sms has a good relationship with mclaren and plus one of sms twitter post said something about hypercars.

Pcars 3 would be a perfect fit alone side pcars 2 really hope that i wont have to pass on it..

Then don't buy it? Especially if that's the only reason to buy pc3, why not just stick with pc2?

 

[TS050]

Then don't buy it? Especially if that's the only reason to buy pc3, why not just stick with pc2?

Because P1 GTR is everything. I will not purchase a game without a P1 GTR. P1 GTR is love. P1 GTR is life

Sure boss.

Try something original already

 

[TS050]

My guy we get it. You like the car. I heavily doubt SMS will cut it so you don’t have anything to worry about

 

[Sentry87]

Im just curious. Not telling you what to do. I mean pc3 looks like pc2 except with some new cars, a couple new fake tracks, and less features. So what's the point is all I'm getting at.

 

[TokoTurismo]

Maybe if the Mclaren P1 is in Pcars3, the GTR body will be its Works Modification if we're basing it on NFS Shift. Although I don't they’ll do that because the two cars are vastly different. We'll just to wait and see when the car list releases.

Cause after 132557.72 miles driven in pcars 2 with the p1 gtr it would be nice to have a new game where i can drive it.

I don't own a xbox for forza 7 or 8
I don't know much about pc racing game or even which one has the car.

Pcars 3 is my only hope for a new racing game that may have the p1 gtr and it would be wonderful to drive it in a new racing game.

Wait... how exactly is it an issue for people to be rightfully mad and upset at a game that completely goes against what the series is about? This game does not feel like a true sequel it feels like a spinoff

You are snyepsp in disguise with a new fixation and I claim my $5.

Maybe people are annoyed because the Studio Head and the On-Line Marketing Director said it was also made for those who liked the 'sim' elements of the series, 'all the sim you could want' was the exact line.

Don't WORRY. There will be P1 GTR in PCars 3... Look they left it standing in the pit stops....

oh wait...

The important line for me was "Spiritual successor to SHIFT"

Happy that people like me finally get a new "Shift" game from SMS after waiting for 9 long years (insert MGS5 meme here) because they decided to make some kind of sim games or what ever that was... And now the sim racers have to wait for a couple years

It would be nice if their own interview or marketing use that line more often, the crap marketing the game has now just makes existing fans unhappy and those who wanted a SHIFT don't even know pCARS 3 is a spiritual successor for SHIFT or it even exist.

Which was said once, over a year ago, yet the 'all the sim you could want' line and ones similar have been repeatedly used since the marketing campaign started.

I don't mind SMS making a spiritual successor to Shift, quite why fuel use, tyre wear, etc. needs to be removed to achieve that has never been clear, what I do object to is marketing that is deliberately misleading.

Very adult comment

Sry but i just have to laugh soo hard about all this drama that is going on. No one seems to understand that a "TRUE" Pcars3 would make zero sense on current gen because it would just be a Pcars2.25...

Everyone that don´t likes Pcars3 should just be patient what SMS has to offer for Next Gen...

Edit: Me as owner of both Pcars games and WMD member said this...

Can´t wait for a Next Gen Pcars but until then its time to have fun with Pcars3...
