Supercar Challenge V1.23 live now!

Yea I was shocked too!
I wasn't really expecting any more updates.

Downloading now, it says Logitech wheel improvements, can't wait to try it out since I just happen to have a logitech wheel!
This will give me something else to play with until my UK version arrives in Okla & then watch out for RaceVW14 !! LOL!
 
I'm intrested to see is the new patch going to affect retail build since we have 1 day to release. Will test afternoon, as soon as I get home. Nice find 👍

I'd be interested to see if this effects the retail build, I'm still running the Beta until my imported copy arrives.
 
Just tried it. I used the Logitech DF-GT and the issue with FFB interfereing with you holding a straight line is much reduced now. So much so on my 3rd lap I knocked a second off my personal best lap time without realy trying. I then had a little race with sarein.....ok I watched him disapear up the road LOL in the Ferrari which previously was a magic act to try and control with the wheel, well I now can get round Spa consistantly (11 seconds slower than Sarein) I'm still not happy with it but it is an improvement. oh and yeah tried the Mclaren and it's still a hatefilled understeering monster 35mph and the think slides off the road with no throtle or brake inputs......I'm sure it's not suposed to do that LOL
Overall an improvement but still not right, don't know what it is, maybe it's the cars? maybe it's me? Don't awnser that LOL
 
I just hope this patch isn't just to take the yellow Lambo out of the opening screen. Will try it tonight.
 
Nope it says Logitech improvements when you select it and there are definate improvements.

👍 Good. Let's hope so. :)

And Mario--somebody from Eutechnyx said the new patch DOES remove the Lamborghini from the opening screen. :irked: I just can't believe those guys.
 
I wonder if the Lambo license was contingent on a North American release? It the only explanation that I can come up with that doesn't end in System 3 looking incompetent. You usually wouldn't show a car that you didn't have a license for. It is apparent that System 3 is having problems getting a North American release.
 
Just got word from Games Mania, my local gameshop... A fresh copy of SCC is waiting for me there... going to pick it up after work ;) WOOOHOOO!
 
Well, GAME confirms my copy is has been dispatched. Hurray! Now it's just the long wait for the Royal Mail and the USPS to connect. As I had to give my address over the phone, and repeat it twice, I'm a bit worried at what the label may read and where it's actually going.

Higgi--did you ever get your copy?

(Thank goodness I didn't have to tell them "Geschwister-Scholl-Strasse 171-717" or I'd really be worried). ;)

:lol: Yeah they would probably have trouble with that one too... I have enough trouble explaining how to spell "Hoogoorddreef" at my work when talking to foreign or US customers... So I could imagine them having difficulty with that street address.... Hopefully I'll see you guys online :D Im not very fast... yet... but I will practice 👍

Driving was so much more fun after update:) Feels more real to me. I could finaly enjoy enzo:) Cant get over the sound in this game.. Imagine gt5 with sound like that!
 
OK Mr. Volcano & Timppaq: I'm having a hard time understanding this. You (apparently) didn't play FC (in spite of my best efforts ;)) over the last year (even though FC has been available at a minimal cost for the last few months). But now that GT5 is only two or three months away (not to mention SHIFT), you are very interested in SCC (at full price!)?

:confused:

Scandinavians! :odd:

(Sorry about all the parentheses...)
 
I'm in the beta, so I'm very interested if there's a new patch. 👍 So far I have not been impressed.


edit,

mostly because of this:

Hun201kmh
In FC - with a wheel - smooth, precise driving like we can do in GT5P is almost impossible.

it has been the same in SCC so far.
 
I don't think Timpaq ever had FC, although he is/was a SCC beta tester.


PS - And I don't think he is Scandinavian either :D


EDIT: Hey, Timpaq, how come in your quote I'm speeding over 200 km/h ??????? :dopey:

The same reason I have just one "p" in your post :sly:

;)


and no I never had FC. And btw, not tried the new patch yet, if you're wondering.
 
Scandinavia[1] is a historical and geographical region in northern Europe that includes, and is named after, the Scanian Province. It consists of the kingdoms of Norway, Sweden, and Denmark.[2] While some authorities argue for the inclusion of Finland and Iceland,[3][4] in Scandinavia the term is used unambiguously to refer only to Denmark, Norway and Sweden, which share a mutually intelligible language (a dialect continuum), ethnic composition and have close cultural and historic bonds, to a degree that Scandinavians may be considered one people (see scandinavism).

Ok, I know Fins have a different heritage & language.

IMO the handling/FFB in the SCC beta (at least prior to this latest update, which I have not tried yet) is still inferior to FC. I've always been curious to know how the fastest GT5P wheel racers, like Timppaq, would adjust to FC's physics. So far as I can tell, the fastest wheel driver in FC appears to be PiotrB.

I have only beta and I am not going to buy the full game. There are a few things SSC do better then gt5p including feeling of weight and sound. But overall the physics cant compare to gt5p IMO.

The question is, do you want the driving to be as "smooth & precise" as in GT5P? It certainly takes a lot of effort & concentration to drive fast in FC with a wheel, but to me that seems closer to what's involved in RL racing than the somewhat clinical feel of GT5P.

In any case, I would repeat my opinion that from what I've seen of the SCC beta so far, the handling is still quite a long way off FC, not to mention the fact that these "super cars" don't feel right to me compared to the slower cars in FC (same in GT5P - the 800PP cars aren't as convincing to drive IMO as the 500 - 600 PP cars). If you can pick up FC for the equivalent of $15, I would definitely recommend doing that to anyone who has not tried the game.

Those beta keys are expired now.
 
Biggles: I have a feeling you work for FC

There's no such entity as "FC"! I support the developers Eutechnyx, who have made a pretty decent racing sim with, presumably, a tiny fraction of what PD have available. But everything else about the publishing, marketing & distribution of FC, & now SCC, has been a complete disaster. I've only promoted FC on GTPlanet because I felt a lot of people were missing out on what the game has to offer (& also because I wanted more people to race against!). However, I've always been, & remain, pretty sceptical about SCC, which has seemed like a mistake right from the start.

Im know that, just could not find the right word in my head so thought you understand when I said FC :sly:
