lmao this game is ridiculously hard, but i feel like once i get dialed in, it's going to be awesome. might just be the type of car i'm used to racing from gran turismo, but i can wreck poo poo on higher difficulties in the GT and LMP series, but anything open wheel, i'm lucky if i can complete a single lap without having to shift into reverse, much less finish not dead last by miles on any difficulty. of course, the second it starts raining in GT and LMP, i start spinning all over the place too. maybe i'm just braking late and getting on the throttle early, and i'm used to getting away with it. gonna have to do some research to figure it out. already played this more than i played driveclub though.

bought on xbone, doing kart racing. Doing pretty good so far, but honestly, Kart racing would be the one thing that invalidated laps wouldn't mean a drat thing.

Adjust steering ratio to a slower one for formula A.

I found what really helped was just taking it super slow. Playing it safe by braking early, taking turns slow and being gentle on the throttle coming out of turns and just speeding up as you go. Practice sessions are your friend, as are lower tiers of racing. Karts are tricky because they're almost too responsive, but superkart is a good middle ground. Rain is a pain but the big things are to make sure you have wet tires and have a feather touch. Wet laps are always super slow. you might also want to try turning on some of the assists since having a little traction control or whatever is still less than forza/gt generally have, iirc. I played a bunch of forza and slowly weaned myself off of assists, but had to have stuff on medium when i started pcars. I think I just have ABS and traction control now since I'm really bad at braking and starts, and they're far, far less effective than their forza counterparts.

No assists club represent  Also, if you want something that's fun to practice in without being balls out hard, may I suggest the Ginetta G40 Junior? It doesn't have much in the way of power, but it's a total blast to drive because it means you have to really carry your speed through corners and keep the revs up to get as much out of the engine as you can. It's an absolute riot  The Mustang Trans-Am and the Audi 90 IMSA car are great for learning on as well. The Audi especially, it's really stable from what i've found.

I've been racing the Formula cars almost exclusively in my career. The trick I've found with those is that while cornering, brake in a straight line, then always have some throttle applied during the corner itself. That helps the rear end not want to fly out from under you. And in the case that the car does start to drift, I've found that going to ~3/4ths throttle lets you bring the car back under control. Also, try to avoid going full throttle until the wheel is pointed straight (or nearly straight, like on corner exit). The Formula Gulf and Formula C cars are good trainer cars to get this stuff down. What's been weird for me is that the Formula cars are still drive-able in the rain - even on normal tires. Unless my game is broken, all that happens during a rainy session is that my car under-steers. That makes sense since the car is hydroplaning. But, applying the throttle doesn't get much harder; The only adjustment to make is to wait a fraction longer before going to full throttle after a corner. Edit: this is all with running the ABS assist because gently caress trying to modulate braking with a gamepad! (still have the other assists off though) Dolemite fucked around with this message at 15:56 on Aug 26, 2015 |

T1g4h posted:No assists club represent Playing a career starting in GT5, which is the Ginetta, at 100 AI and 100% length, and now nobody can finish within 10 seconds of me. It's weird, when I'm actually driving at practice, I'll put 2 seconds on the AI, but if I choose to skip to the end of practice, the AI times drop a good 4 seconds in every lap that is simulated. Whenever I'm actually racing them, they just can't keep up. I don't want to take off my training wheel assists yet, but that's probably the next step. The second track, I think Donington, there's this one turn that I absolutely dive into and gain about a second on the rest of the field and it's so fun but lol that is not happening without traction control and all that poo poo.

SanitysEdge posted:Yes! More road cars! Old road cars!  I've been hoping for more older stuff in car packs for a while now (see: half my posts in this thread) so this is an awesome start. Also, this could definitely lead to more Old vs. New packs. Camaro ZL1 versus old Yenko? Charger Hellcat and '69 R/T? Anything to bring more American muscle into the game

$110 here, I put in $40 but got upgraded along the way because when I made the original Project CARS thread, about 55 of you signed up as well and used me as a referral and SMS was kinda grateful for that, so thank you guys. :>

I bought in before I realised it was a profit sharing type arrangement, so I can't complain to much. With the benefits of the exchange rate being loving awful at the moment though, I'm rolling in the  now.Put in $55 AUD for the 45 Tier, walk out with just under $80 AUD.

I'm kinda surprised none of you guys are talking about the new DLC that came out the 28th. I can't speak for the cars because I haven't had a chance to try them, but holy poo poo that new Mojave Test Track is really fun to drive on. It has a skid pan so you can do sikknasty drifts which is fun by itself, but I think the best part is the Boa Ascent area. It's this incredibly steep twisty section that winds up and then back down and around a giant hill and has some corners that are really reminiscent of the Corkscrew at Laguna Seca. The only downside is apparently you can't use the full open Test Track in multi, but I imagine you could probably use some of the blocked off variants? They also added 3 new Aston Martins with the new DLC: The 1959 DBR1, a 2009 DBR1-2 LMP car (Yay more LMP  ), and a 2014 Vantage GTE. Supposedly we're getting a special, fan-requested car pack in October and then a huge track expansion later. Oh, and they recently added the Mercedes Gullwing as a free DLC car it seems.
