Historic Hockenheim was my favorite track when it was still in the game. Hope the Historic DLC won't take long!

If the Historic DLC is similarly epic to the Shift 2 Unleashed Legends Pack, I would wet myself with excitement.

Macau has been confirmed but not started yet afaik.

And what about Ruapuna Park? Did they started it?

Yes they did.

No delay announcement this week means I can finally pre-order this thing

There better not be any delay anymore, my week off is already planned for 6-10 april.

 

[nepal road]

Finally got my stuff together today, cancelled the pre-ordered special PS4 version with Game and placed my order with Steam for the PC instead.

Wooo.

and avoided paying £20 to Sony in fees into the bargain. Now that is a result.

Why does a delay stop you preordering?

On the ps4 version is there a lot of mapable buttons. Because on the t500/300 there are no many buttons so will external button boxes work or can the ps4 controller be used to provide extra buttons.

Cheers

 

[HEF51]

I've been wondering that too, espically for the two add on rims for T300/500/TX. It would be nice to map extra buttons.

I have a bit of a conundrum on my hands.

I plan on buying this for the PC, the only problem is I won't have the funds to build a capable one until late summer at the earliest. The question is, do I pre-order on Steam now in order to guarantee the bonus content (I don't think this would be a problem), or do I wait until I actually get my PC built and get the game at a possibly lower price and hope the bonus stuff is available via DLC.

Any thoughts on this?

Can the PS4 controller's right analog stick be used as the accelerator?

I'd wait. Six months is a long time. No telling what might be available by then.

you can always put in usb keyboard and map that

 

[Cobra_GT500]

Does anyone know when this game will ship to the stores? I just contacted the people i pre ordered the game off they said they can ship the game to me once its at the wearhouse.

 

[InsaneMode2Go]

Yes, they've said all buttons are customizable

@crowhop has a good point. You could end up paying full price for the game now, and might miss out on a discounted price or some kind of package deal later on. I bought AC before I had my PC but I knew when it was coming and so I just waiting until AC was on sale and I ended up paying only $23 for it. I'd keep an eye on it after release and watch for a Steam Sale later on or package deal with DLC.

Can you map a keyboard on ps4? Along with using the wheel?

 

[DG_Silva]

With a CronusMax you can, but you need to put the PS4 controller in as well.

 

[GTAndy36]

Thing is though, as the wheel is the controller device in use... I can't see how you can use a keyboard along side that at the same time... regardless of how it's wired in. Unless the PS4 can use more than one device at the same time like a PC...

It works in War Thunder afaik. You can plug-in a mouse, keyboard and use it along with your DS4.

Right, ok so you'd need to plug the wheel into this. I understand the concept now.

So, plug the CronusMax into USB port 1, plug PS4 controller into side of CM, and keyboard into top. Plug wheel into USB port 2, and it all should work. Control the game using the wheel, and you've got all the hotkeys on the keyboard. I have to admit, I was wondering just how it was going to work on the consoles with so many hotkeys to map.

If that's how you would set it up... I'm still not sure if the PS4 will allow you to use the wheel, then use the keyboard for any hotkeys. Two different ports.

 

[DG_Silva]

I don't know, I guess the answer is to wait and see what happens. I don't think it would be the PS4 being the limiting factor, but instead the game itself.

i currently don't have the arb settings adjustable i can control almost everything needed on my dfgt. some stuff could be controlled with the touch pad.

 

[Timppaq]

Oh haha.. just drove one of the LMP1's to test some cam settings.. I thought I drove just like in GT (a bit carelessly, I admit).. on 3rd lap I got "engine blown" message. I was like WTF, this is cool.

 

[MXH]

BRING IT ON!
