think a lot about how matt malone bought a gsi rim and it took well over a year to actually get it, though I think that was technically a preorder

If you want a GSI rim, the best place to get it is microcenter, they usually have good stock.

Finally pulled the trigger and joined the direct drive club Had to drill the wheel mounting plate, but otherwise was really straightforward. I’m using an ancient P1 Xbox one wheel that I had laying around from an old CSL wheelbase that I bought on marketplace with the intention of fixing but it was beyond my skills I plan to get the McLaren GT3 wheel eventually but this’ll do for now

nice booster seat kid. JK, enjoy the new DD setup! The McLaren wheel will be great but until you end up with that one you can entertain yourself with DD oval and rally action also!

Its where my Oculus Rift S lives, its an old 8mm projector case. I finally got around to setting the wheel up last night and boy howdy are the default settings in iracing all wrong! It was clipping like crazy and the strength was way too high. I think I've got it now though

Started using both feet at once and trail braking, now I've gone from way behind the field/wiping out all the time to running clean laps fighting for second-to-last in Forza 7 Regulations Beta lobbies. Progress. Was real close to deciding this wasn't for me but now I'm energized as hell.

Seems like The Crew Motorfest's Oahu is a pretty miniature version. Given that Ivory Tower's pretty much TDU's original developers, it's kinda disappointing that they're not going 1:1 on the second attempt. Content and procedural tools improved a lot since TDU2, so filling things out shouldn't be the issue. The handling will probably be somewhere between crap and meh, so the map size would have been the only other thing going for it.

Been awhile since I've wandered in here. Apparently the GeneRally 2 game mentioned awhile back released on Steam Early Access a week ago. Also, Rennsport closed beta sign-ups are open with invites supposedly starting tomorrow.

Automobilista 2 has started rolling out "new physics," starting with open wheel cars. I'm fairly new to racing with a wheel and I'd basically given up on AMS2, but I'm having a MUCH better time with it now. I'm qualifying within the pack and everything.

I'm sure that the team that worked for 5 years on that map would be delighted to learn that "filling things out" isn't an issue. Regarding handling perhaps give the game a chance before judging it crap.

Why would you make a sim that does the exact same thing multiple existing sims do, but without the ability to run a full field? Why would you bother doing that?

They are getting that sweet Saudi money through ESL. So that is probably why. Whenever games do esports tournaments before the public can even play them it always goes south.

Good to see their CTO failed at learning Big O and opted for an engine that exponentially reaches unplayable at 13 cars on track. Hopefully they add Le Mans so you can do a 24 hour race and see if you ever find another car after the first few laps, excluding pit stops.

F1 2023 is out now, did anyone pick it up? This is the first year that i'm really on the fence about wanting to buy it. I think i'm mostly just tired of the F1 series at this point. The PC version does return with VR support again though so that is a big plus.

I've sat out F1 for a good long time and I have the 8 hour trial installed on my Series X right now. Very curious to see how it is, as I've really been enjoying driving the generic F1-alike in AMS2 with the new physics.

Having an alright time in the first few hours of F1 23, but it's weirdly missing downshifts on my G920. Forza 7 and AMS2 don't seem to be doing it which makes me think it's game jank and not Logitech jank.

I think i'm mostly just tired of the F1 series at this point. The PC version does return with VR support again though so that is a big plus.  --VR never worked no matter what I tried. Recently fully patched the game, drivers, headset, Windows, and all that to see if it was ever fixed and it still ran as terribly as when I gave up last August--struggling to maintain a steady 72 FPS, jittering a lot (although far less than launch), and looking so bad as to be nearly undrivable on VR low settings with a 3090 that ostensibly should run it fine on like med/high. Just don't get how it both looks and performs so dramatically worse than literally any other VR game. I know Dirt Rally 2.0, Project Cars 2, and the like are much older, but they all run fine with graphics maxed and resolution upscaled to 500% with no lag, no jitter, looking far better than F1 22 while no amount of dropping headset/SteamVR/game settings would make F1 22 playable or have non-potato graphics.Very positive reviews so far on Steam for F1 23 with a weekend in the books (compared to solidly "Mixed" last year) and generally sounds like they fixed a lot of the F1 22 issues. But sounds like plenty of people who still had VR issues in F1 22 still have VR issues in F1 23 so not sure if it's worth even trying lest I get burned missing a refund window 2 years running on a game that I'd love to play but only if VR works like... literally every single other game with VR.

Ooh yeah I think you're actually right. I know Ian Bell of Slightly Mad Games left in order to start a new studio. There was no way he was going to accept being back under EA.

I had AMS2 (and sim racing as a whole tbh) a bit on the backburner, but I tried out the overhauled Formula USA (Gen1) and drat this feels good to drive. I really hope the V8 Supercars end up with a big improvement as well, I never enjoyed them as much in AMS2 as I did in AMS1.

Yeah AMS2 is like a whole new actually-playable game with the new physics. They need to get that working on all the cars ASAP, they've got much stronger product all of a sudden.
