P1 GTR has liveries, Zonda Revolucion has liveries, so far the Vulcan is the only one missing racing liveries of what we have been shown :/
 
@IanBell will the Vulcan feature fictional racing liveries?

Thanks!

Oh God YES!

I love how this thing sounds and handles.. bring it on SMS babyy! :D
 
Saw the trailer. got super excited. found out special editions are europe only? But the Mclaren die-cast car looks sooooooo coooollll :(

Edit: will there be an option for USA to get those extra car packs at launch?
 
Does anyone know what that esports live VIP pass in the collectors edition mean/do?
@IanBell @The_American

You can read that on their own site: http://www.projectcarsgame.com/preorder

To make it easy for you:


  • The Esport Live VIP Pass: Present this pass to any Slightly Mad Studios, or Bandai Namco staff member at Project CARS Esports live events anywhere in the world, and you will be treated to the full benefits that come from being a Project CARS VIP. Meet the team, jump to the front of the queue, or maybe even pick up some free swag!

Thanks mate, so no real point for me in australia buying that then hahah
 
Probably been asked before but will it be possible to increase fuel depletion as well as tire wear? One thing that bugged me in PC1 was that you could only scale up tire wear for short endurances.
 
@IanBell I see you have changed up the way you are handling the DLC's this time (season pass) but are keeping the same policy of if the host has the DLC then everyone in the lobby can use it? I hope this is the case because other games that don't do this divide the community.

Maybe a WMD member can chime in if allowed too.
 
Hi @IanBell . I have a question: will the cars that are only available as DLC in PCARS 1 be included in PCARS 2 for free?

It'd also be nice if any other person that knows the answer can reply to my question as well. :)

Sorry if this question has been answered before or if I'm doing anything wrong. I've read the past few pages of this thread but found no answer to this question, and I'm also new to this part of the forums.

The car roster from PCars will be carried over almost in it's entirety. Rumour has it that RUF are gone as a stipulation of having Porsche.

The DLC cars will be part of the base PCars2 and will not be offered as DLC again. There would be murder if that was attempted!
 
I have a short question regarding fuel. Is it possible safe fuel during the race with shifting earlier or drive slower like in a real car (I hope you understand what I mean :D)? I dont know if this feature is already in PC1, my feeling was, it is not in but maybe I am wrong.

I'm pretty sure this was a feature in PC1, I found myself managing to stretch out another lap or so by shifting earlier or using lift and coast techniques.
 
Ian or sms what is the reason some cars are dropped from pcars 1? Is it to do with licencing & politics? or just SMS deciding they didn't want to include it?
 
I asked this question a while back but got no answer. Now you're here, i'll see if it works again.

How does RallyX weekend work in game? Is it like the WorldRX method with 4 heats, 2 semis and a final or otherwise?

Same with the Time Attack series. I was told how it worked IRL but not how it worked in game. I'm sure others would be interested for either career events or through a custom race/online.

Fuel consumption plays a role since PCARS1 ;) Saved a P3 with lift/coast plus shortshifting
 
@IanBell Stuck at the airport? Time to view the boards for a bit? What airline are you using? I don't wanna see you on the evening news later for the wrong reasons
 
okay thanks for the fast reply. I never feel thats work in PC1 but okay good to know :)

I have a wish for PC2: if I change the KI to a lower one, please do not make them only slowly, please let them drive the normal paste but let it take more "problems", to late on the brake, spin arround, not drive on the line... this would be very nice :) I dont like it that the computer is only slower if I use a lower KI, they are too perfect.

It has been said there is now an "aggression" slider in addition to the "difficulty" slider. Increasing the AI aggression may cause them to make more mistakes as a result of taking more risks.

No idea, I'm waiting on more information about limited editions too. I won't want to miss the Japanese pack, but there's no word on what will be available in North America yet.
