[R3E] Free Content, but big download. 20th Sept 2019

Post by norbs »

Trying something else new this week, and getting it out there early because it is a big download.

RaceRoom Racing Experience.



We will be racing the Formula Junior at a couple of the free tracks, just to get an idea of what people think of the game.

I'll give it a go.

I had a bit of a spin (literally) just a little while ago to make sure my controls were set up. I'm probably going to take a bit of convincing on the likeability of that car.

That car isnt locked in just yet. That said, once you get your head around it, it is great fun. Just tough.

I think mentally I was hoping for a PCars2 Formula Rookie (which I love to drive). This ain't that.

Maybe I need to look at setup or FFB configuration. I found it really hard to detect when the rear was losing traction. In VR the central virtual mirror would pop up when the car was sliding, which started out being my primary method of telling that my arse was about to overtake me.

It has a bit more power and has slicks.

Once you get your head around it, it is quite good, but very unforgiving.

Dont shift down too quickly. Dont slam the brakes on whilst turning in. Trail some throttle in some corners.

let me reassure you it becomes very fun when you start getting your head around it.

Don't change plans based solely on my noise. My problem just might be FFB settings or something.

Just installed and gave it a quick run, car is fun and game runs smooth with WMR. Will try and have a go tomorrow night

If you can leave two black stripes from the exit of one corner to the braking zone of the next, you finally have enough horsepower.

I found the FFB more sensible when disabling the vibration-when-understeering effect. I can't remember exactly what it was called.
