Yes...Ha ha ha...YES!



It seems like most of the negative Steam reviews boil down to poor wheel/controller support or 'It's not a sim like NR2003!' so I'm not sure how much stock to put in them v:shobon:v

There's a lot of controller/wheel issues on PC

Meanwhile on console, 2 minutes and I'm underwhelmed. Edge clipping everywhere





You start with only 6 tracks available to race...

Sim physics are comically bad. No sense of speed and you are absolutely glued to the track. Barely turning jerks the car and reminds me of Daytona USA

Normal physics, not much different. For a good laugh, pause and unpause the game a few times. The physics panic on unpause. Driving a straight line smoothly is not doable. Smooth corners aren't too hard

Draft effect=just hold a vibrator

Daytona 14 laps. Won by 15 seconds because the pack was doing 170 and can go 190 no draft. Going to try with max speed setting 105.

Pin balling all around on purpose, no wrecks

100 ai much better speed. Parked on track, no yellow. Pathetic result of just spinning and no air at all when field hit, but did bring out yellow. Yellows are summed, including pit stop, which magically repaired all cars and I got free pass to stay on lead lap..

Pit stop, 20 seconds

Career car numbers: 8 28 36 99. That's it

How to drive any track: hold the gas down at all times, tap the brake to turn harder

Game has no stats to speak of really

Bump drafting doesn't work, side draft does

And refunding. Eutechnix did a better job sadly.

I don't get this. One of my favorite things in any NASCAR game was nerding out and creating my own car and I've never understood why games usually only have a handful of numbers you can use. I was 64 for the longest time when playing in season/career modes because I started with Thunder 2002 and it only had like 35, 53, 56, 63, and 64 as options, even when Thunder 2005 gave you a much larger plate of numbers to choose from.

Lol the game looks like dirt to Daytona with gen6 cars. The sound effects are literally the same. No they literally are in the true sense of the word.

Oddly enough when you put an arcade game on a platform with true sims, people are going to compare this to those.

Forza and Gran Tourismo aren't sims either, but no cars in there are getting F1 style downforce/handling and extremely jerky steering with slight stick movements

We shouldn't do this in here.

"Just made it three-wide on a restart".

There's that "Austin Dillon goes three-wide on a restart and screws everybody but the guy in the top lane" thing I've been talking about for two years now.

"Where's my loving team owner helping me out?" -Austin Dillon. That's right, run to Pop-Pop whenever something doesn't go your way, Legacy. :laffo:

e- LIS or lugnut check failure post-race takes away the auto-advance benefit for the Chase and won't allow race wins to count for Chase eligibility or seeding into the future. But, true to form:

quote:

If a team is found with 17 or fewer lug nuts tightened, a P4 penalty will be handed down. NASCAR has ruled that one missing lug nut is not a competitive advantage, but three or more is blatant.

They are all up to about $100 now. If you don't want to marry him you can go go carting or have him do a hot lap at the track with you instead. (None of the three options is really all that safe). The money goes to some charity so spend away.
