Project CARS General Discussion Thread

perhaps the FOV settings have been changed by that player as i'm sure i've seen the driver's helmet in other videos. perhaps not to the same extent as Codemasters, but certainly more than in that video.

edit: like this one (granted, still not to the same level, but you can see the helmet come forward under braking).

 

[thedottore46]

Would be really nice and much appreciated. Thank you very much in advance.

You can move the camera to where ever you like (within set limits) anyway

Thanks, but afaik only under braking (cant watch the video right now). And it is an older build though.

That's great. But only in PC I guess?

 

[thedottore46]

Ah, yeah. Still forgetting most members here are console players I cant verify, but most probably, yes

This! I saw videos where the head was moving to. Adds to realism!

Yeah so would be nice if anybody could pass my request to the developers. I guess it is no big deal for them even if they have to add a second t-cam. Thanks

 

[Speedy__17]

I think someone on here mentioned that adjustable field of view is on consoles too.

And adding another camera this close to release would be quite big a deal, I believe.

It is all adjustable! No need for a second cam! All good, mate!

[JR98]

Reminds me of a Ferrari steering wheel with all those buttons

 

[killerjimbag]

Isn't that cute,what the hell is that,hope it's returnable.

 

[TheMinority]

Jesus guys, its just a new wheel (If Im Not Mistaken), I'd imagine they're making a PS version as well.

No delay

 

[Yeratel84]

No delay

Is it still May 12th? (according to PS Store that's the EU release date)

 

[mister dog]

No delay

Now don't be cheeky and tell us the date.

 

[CHEN255]

According to PSN Store in NZ the release date is still May 7th. Has done for a while now. (I know it's not official )

The big news here is this...

Additional wheel bases and a new Xbox One wheel "targeted to a broader audience at a much lower price point" are also due to be announced later this year.

If they get into the ballpark of the Thrustmaster T300, that would be huge news. The current V2 is over $1000 USD...just for a functional wheel.

When i heard the news off the hub today i was surprised they didn't go that route, should have known they aren't that short sighted after all

 

[notanexpert]

Imo, 400 us dollars for the t300 is exactly 100 too many. I need a 300 dollar price point

Yeah, the price increase is horrible even though it is logically understandable. The prices just ended up being out of reach for most of the sim-racers.

I'm glad I got my beta unit for half price of the pre-order price (which was 499.95 euro) since I was a beta tester. So I only payed 250 euros for my V2. To think it's 750 euro now... man I'm a lucky guy.

The same thing happened with the Microsoft Surface Pro 2 128GB I bought in October last year for 599 euro. Which has now gone up considerably as well to 1000 euro.


The economy is far from stable and it seems to change rapidly. If it's for better or worse... who knows? I only know it sucks for all of us right now.



Btw. I think the universal XB1 hub is the best thing ever. You can just put on whatever wheel you want, and add and remove as much buttons as you want or do not want. So no complaints here from me. Now if only I had an XB1.

 

[psychoazubi]

Now don't be cheeky and tell us the date.

Sorry was a little busy. Amazon says May 15th. But just like before, wait for official announcement.

 

[notanexpert]

Sooo we've heard multiple dates, are all of these just estimates? Logically i would think some of them are just guesses

 

[Yeratel84]

Well, May 12th (a Tuesday) for EU and May 15th (a Friday) for NA kinda fit well together...


EDIT: Scratch that... just checked PS Store and it now lists a May 7th release date

New Thrustmaster T300RS wheel owner here. Very much so looking forward to properly using it with PCARS on the PlayStation 4. I've been out of the sim game since rFactor 1 and Live for Speed era, with a cheaper/older wheel, so this should be a good overall upgrade. Currently testing with DriveClub and The Crew... already better than the controller even in 'simpler' games.
