It's extremely locked down, full assists etc. I felt the steering was very spongey and took ages to get used to it. It wasn't very direct as I'd expect a car of that calibre.

Quite fun I thought. Even with all aids on, it felt pretty good. Car still moved round a bit, will definitly check the full version out.

When you giving it some, it does move around a bit, but I think I'd like to try the full one with no aids before saying yes. In the 20 minutes I was driving it, I couldn't even get the rear properly step out even when jumping on it in 2nd... At least it didn't give me the shiz with setup, etc, it has picked up everything and worked nicely.

Felt fairly nice to drive, obviously want to try it without aids but not a bad first impression

Wish it would just use money, then I would know how much I don't want to waste on this TT sim

LOL yep I have made a conversion spreadsheet to track just that. I'll happily post it if you want?GT VIRUS wrote:Wish it would just use money, then I would know how much I don't want to waste on this TT sim
I'm most spewing that I have already purchased both Laguna Seca & Bathurst at RvRP.
TT sim yes but at least they have leaderboards setup already. Hopefully full racing (AI or MP) is not far off, I suspect it will come when DTM Experience is released which is tied to this.

Well I spent a little vRP on a few things in the sale, like all the cars & the Zolder track. I didn't bother with Monza as it's in many other games plus even at 30% off it wasn't much cheaper than other tracks. I want Mid Ohio & Suzuka more so have my fingers crossed they may come up in a future sale.
The Zakspeed Capri & BMW 320 Turbo are so much fun, wheelspin in 2nd & 3rd gears once the Turbo kicks in makes them a real handful. Zolder is also a great track & very challenging.
As promised here is the vRP calculation spreadsheet I have made. It is currently based off the 2000 points package but can be easily changed as per the instructions in yellow, I have also added items so you can see how it works. It should be pretty straight forward from there.

Their tongue in check attitude with this little teaser is also refreshing.

R3E MP Alpha coming soon: http://insider.simbin.com/simbin-dev-blog-5/
What I find interesting is they say it will be at least 1 month away & restricted to a limited number of users, so full MP is probably a way off yet, this seems reasonable & I can't help think this is why MP in AC is still some way off yet...?
This is also in the works = sweet!!!

Paul Ricard has been ignored by most racing games, but R3E will give us the finest opportunity to race on this motorsport history masterpiece!

Corner Marker Update
All R3E tracks have now been updated for the corner marker toggle. Only the 9 DTM Experience tracks remain. We will have a few weeks of delay with rolling out these DTM Experience tracks to optimize them a bit better.
Current Focus in the Studio
Our first priority right now is wrapping up Multiplayer Alpha which will be available to DTM Experience season pass holders in just a few weeks.
We are done with all the needed implementations and the servers are now running fully compatible with our Online Protocol system. The stability is getting there and we are now ironing out a few things mainly in the collisions and position bar areas.
Next, which some of us are working hard on is finishing up the R3E Experience temporary menu that will enable Multiplayer and possibly Single Race with completely refactored AI for R3E.
Multiplayer Alpha Update
Because it’s an Alpha, some of you asked about what limitations it will have. Let me explain what the Multiplayer Alpha version will include. This is of course only for the DTM Experience version. Some of these will not apply to the R3E MP.
Multiplayer Alpha in DTM Experience will include full grid races in DTM tracks.
It will have the DTM overlays and Timing menu you are used to seeing in the Single Race mode. Overlays can of course be toggled off via options.
For Alpha, Black flag rules (same as in current Single Race) can be enabled/disabled by the server.
Mechanical Damage can be enabled/disabled by the server and servers with both options will be available for testing purposes.
DRS can be enabled/disabled by the server and servers with both options will be available.
Car Setup will be available in Get Real difficulty.
All 3 difficulties Novice, Amateur and Get Real will be available and we will have servers running with all of them all the time.
All Sessions are included. However we will mainly enable Practice, Qualify and Race. Warm up and multiple Qualifying sessions will not be enabled most of the time.
Session times will vary. We will have a variety of session lengths for testing purposes. From 5 minutes to 60 minutes, anything goes.
On Alpha, there will be no championship. Once you complete the race on a track you will return to the Server Browser screen after the race results.
On Alpha, there will be no teams, leagues, points system or leaderboards.
Initial test servers will be located in Germany. We will not have servers in different continents on the initial alpha stage. A more global solution is being investigated of course, but so far our tests show that the latency between European players and players from other continents while racing is much better than expected.
As you can see it’s pretty basic hence the Alpha tag. The main purpose of the Alpha version is to stress test the infrastructure and optimize the server and network code and bandwidth based on the results.

It's free to try mate, give it a go.
" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
It's not as refined as AC but I like it for a bash around.
Again it's another sim still in beta, no MP yet but it has got good potential to be worthy of playing in my opinion.
They also have regular specials of 30%-50% off DLC, that's when I've grabbed what I wanted, like Mt Panorama.
