Project CARS General Discussion Thread

[bleeder]

after watching a VVV video about replays I was wondering if anyone knows if the game features its own editing suite? trimming and playing back slow mo shots then saving the clip would be really nice, not sure how else this can be achieved unless the game itself allows this.

 

[DG_Silva]

No, the game does not have a replay suite because it's not stored as a video. Slo-mo shots are done by holding down the LT/L2/brake during the replay, you can fire up Game DVR or Upload on XBone (whatever alternative is on PS4), or Fraps/DXTory on the PC.

I finish work at 2pm on the Thursday and don't have to go back until 2pm on the Monday.

I might bump into you at some point... hopefully not literally.

I got the Monday off, long weekend here we go! =]

and when Windows 10 is out you will be able to use the Xbox app to record and edited your pc gaming videos on the pc!

Slo mo shots during replays? I see the potential for some awesome slo mo crashes!!!

I'd rather use a proper video editing software on the PC, there is a website called xboxclips.com that shows the clips you have saved in upload.

 

[bleeder]

I'll probably have to manually use slow mo then press the PS4 share button afterwards to save the clip. no biggie I suppose

MK 1 Escort!

The MK1 escort was great fun in SHIFT2, it should be Epic in pCARS 👍

On PS4 it should be possible to stream to twitch as you run the replays, then export that to youtube for permanent storage if you want to. You can record something like 3 minute video clips as video files on it too, but I think I'd rather use my capture device to do that.

There was a MK1 Escort in Shift 2? I don't remember it. I only remember the Cosworth

Yes in the Legends DLC MK1 screamer

Yes in the Legends DLC MK1 screamer

Oh, DLC. Least I get to play around with this in the base game! I love the Mk1 Escort. My 4th favourite Ford

 

[HammyMansell]

A question.... Does anyone know if fuel consumption varies with all the different cars?

I believe it does.

I believe it does.

Hope so! It will add a lot in terms of strategy!

Give me a Group 4 Mk1 BDA over most cars

Classic Race Cars are the best Race Cars. Would be awesome if there was a GT Legends DLC with all of those old GTC cars!

 

[Bealdor]

A question.... Does anyone know if fuel consumption varies with all the different cars?

Yes. High powered GT3 cars need more fuel/lap than a Formula Gulf car for example.

 

[JR98]

Yes. High powered GT3 cars need more fuel/lap than a Formula Gulf car for example.

Regards to fuel and performance, how well simulated are turbo and diesel cars?

 

[HammyMansell]

Yes. High powered GT3 cars need more fuel/lap than a Formula Gulf car for example.

Excellent news thanks for confirming @Bealdor !!

 

[Lizard]

A question.... Does anyone know if fuel consumption varies with all the different cars?

It does. I found the Ford Cosworth to be the thirstiest of all the cars.

 

[JR98]

It does. I found the Ford Cosworth to be the thirstiest of all the cars.

The thirstiest? Even more than an FA car?

 

[Lizard]

The thirstiest? Even more than an FA car?

From what I found. Although this was many months ago I last played.

The FA has state of the art injection etc remember.

 

[DG_Silva]

On PS4 it should be possible to stream to twitch as you run the replays, then export that to youtube for permanent storage if you want to. You can record something like 3 minute video clips as video files on it too, but I think I'd rather use my capture device to do that.

The only flaw with the Twitch method is that it will include your rewinds and so on, it wouldn't be much good for making an edited highlights.

A question.... Does anyone know if fuel consumption varies with all the different cars?

Yes it does, Caterham Classics run about 18mpg, Renault Clios run about 12-13mpg.

Would be awesome if a slower but more economical car beat a faster but thirstier car. Imagine a Ford Focus beating a Ford Mustang just on fuel consumption.

 

[TheMinority]

I used to race with TORA too. Was a member of the community team for years. What name did you race under there?

MATT PASTRAMNI, Raced on Ax4x for a while, and branched out, Im good friends with the LMR guys. I broke away from TORA until recently, considering they have major plans for PCARS this year (e.g. LeMans, Daytona, GT, etc). With everything PCARS offers, it should be fun.

Codies F1 update: F1 2015 is now available on steam..... And yet still no game play footage has been shown??? How crazy!! Haha who's going to pre-order a game without seeing what it looks like? The mind boggles!

Is this a first for a AAA game with NO gameplay shown before release?
