So does /v/ into racing games or are y’all a buncha pussy ass niggas as I suspect?
>>724731567I lose ALL THE GODDDAM TIME. But GT4 saved my life when I had a mechanical failure on a long steep mountain road. And one day I hope to finish a rally in Richard Burns rally.
>You see that horizon? Get to it and you'll see another horizon and another and another because the game world is 3,000 square miles bigLove me some Crew 2
>>724731727>But GT4 saved my life when I had a mechanical failure on a long steep mountain road.Any more details to this story?
I just play FH5, FM7, TXR2025, and EAWRC with my controller. I've got a shitty cheapo non-DD wheel but I haven't bothered setting it up.Every time I try playing a game that's closer to being a sim (PC2 or AMS2 for example) I get filtered out, so I just stick to my baby games.
most of the people here seem to have one specific idea of how a racing game should work and everything deviating from that is bad I've been playing loads of gran turismo 7. just hit collector level 49
>>724731567I don't have a good pc right now so I dld NFS underground.but I really want to play rfactor and aceto corsa and buy a nice DD wheel...
I've always been interested in playing Forza Horizon, or something similar, but previously never had the right console or hardware to do it. How fun are those games online? Can you have enjoyable races, or is it just tryhards and cheaters?
>>724731567Yes I'm quite the racist
>racingI just want to chill around driving a carany games?I already have ETS2
>>724732907dirt4
>>724732907you can do that in any of the open world racing games (e.g. NFS Heat/Unbound, Forza Horizon), or maybe something like mon bazou or my summer car?
>>724732605I like that the games are online. I love seeing other people when I’m just driving around, makes the game world feel more alive. But I never race against them kek. I just do single player. I’m just not naturally good at driving games tho I enjoy them.
>>724732907That’s pretty much how I play Crew: MotorfestI play enough to unlock the cars I want then just drive around and listen to the radio
>>724732907Snowrunner, it's ETS2 but on bad roads
What is the best The Crew game if I just want to enjoy racing cool cars? Is there a reason to play The Crew over something like FH?
>>724732907
>>724733293>What is the best The Crew gameYou're gonna get split answers here.I think Crew 2 has an incredible map.I think Crew: Motorfest has the better drivingI think they are both worth playing.>Is there a reason to play The Crew over something like FH?I haven't play Forza yet, probably will when it goes on sale again. From what I understand Crew: Motorfest is very similar to Forza.
I THINK METROPOLIS STREET RACER SUCKS
Racing and driving games are my favourite genre. I played through Test Drive Unlimited 2 last year on my PS3 and cranked a lot of Grid Autosport, MotoGP 14, F1 2014, Need For Speed Pro Street and Shift/Shift 2 and I’ve clocked plenty of hours on Gran Turismo 5 & 6. I’m about to buy an Xbox and get a bunch of racing games.
Love me racing games'ate niggerssimple as
I wish Sony would port GT7 to PC. $700 to play one game is a bit steep.
>>724732907Pretty much every Need For Speed game that isn’t a track racing game, the Forza Horizon series, Test Drive unlimited series, The Crew and Burnout Paradise.
>dude le underground JDM night racingHoly fucking reddit
I wish NFS Underground had a cockpit view. I can't into driving games unless I have that steering wheel view.
>>724734608This. I want le mainstream JDM day racing on the highway.
HOLY KINO
>>724733293The Crew is way too arcadey for my tastes, Horizon games have much better handling and way better production value in general
>>724731567Where my Tokyo Xtreme Racists at?
>>724735004How does the new one compare to 3?
>>724734783I like a good cockpit cam. My favourite one is the dash cam on Grid Autosport. It’s just inside the windscreen. I don’t like seeing the wheel when playing with a controller because you can see all those twitchy micro adjustments.
>>724734815Forza Horizon 6 is going to be in Japan.
>>724735103TXR25 is the fastest/most arcadey game in the series so far, whether you enjoy that is up to you to find out but I don't think anyone particularly liked TXR3's driving on ice handlingBattles last for a very short duration, especially in endgame where they might end in seconds compared to 3 where they went for 30-40 seconds minimum in most casesLess cars than 3 and no foreign manufacturers (the Porsche pic is modded) but a lot of cars in 3 didn't have any body customization eitherOnly the Toyko highway is preset, no Nagoya and OsakaIt's pretty much a direct sequel to ITC, both in story and gameplay (except ITC has better handling than TXR25, the best in the series in my opinion), talking to people in PAs is very similar how it was in ITC
How do I corner in TXR25? Drifting is weird as fuck and maybe it's because I'm just starting out but slowing to corner sucks too because the brakes kinda suck.
>>724735337>twitchy micro adjustmentsI think they somehow figured that issue out for Crew: Motorfest.In the Crew 2, they made the steering wheel cam incredibly stiff which also wan't very good (still better compared to the twitchiness), but I think they actually figured out the cockpit steering wheel cam for Motorfest.
>>724735873Engine brake.
I am in love with this one, what else is like it?
>>724735949fug, i'm an auto babby. time to learn to shift in video games i guess.
>>724731567>DON'T THEY KNOW THAT YOU'VE HURT YOURSELF ANOTHER TIME>DON'T THEY KNOW THAT YOU'RE FULL OF PAIN ALREADY
>>724734862
Did they ever improve Forza 23?
PURESEGAKINO
>>724736448is this the crew?
I want to be able to appreciate forza but i just cannot
>>724736060Manual is far better. Even if you have every other assist on manual is so much better. Braking performance and corner performance improves. You can shift down to aid braking and you can take a corner in a lower gear to get less drive and turn tighter. Autobabys don’t deserve to play proper racing games.
>>724736595yes.
>>7247366962 or motorsport?
>>724732605Forza isn't a racing game or fun, it's a city driving simulator with good graphics
>>724736694I know, but it just feels weird to me in games. I can drive stick IRL and have a motorcycle, so you'd think I'd be fine with it, but it just feels bad in games and I can't explain why.
>>724736763Motor
>>724736641Play FM4 and you'll learn to appreciate itwww.youtube.com/watch?v=guHnXAQboKE
>>724736853Because you’re a pleb.
Play Spec II
bump
>>724735690Nagoya sucked in 3, but I did like the variety of token foreign cars.
>>724733625after playing any FH crew motorfest honestly feels pretty boringit was ok for like 4 hours
>>724732907Assetto Corsa 2 will have open world but it's still in development
What are some games where I can drive around in comfy winter scenery? Trucker sims or game mods are fine.
>>724731567it's fucking astonishing how this game sounds 10000x better than any forza game since 2014
>>724732605They're fun but multiplayer races are plagued by metafags
>>724732907>carStep it up and chill around driving a Euro Truck simulation
>>724735004They have Porsches? What kind do they have? How far are they in the game?
>>724745675really nigga
>>724745948read>>724735690
>crew motorfest is 70€holy fuggers
>>724746673Damn that's a shame, but at least it has cool cars later on
>>724732907American Truck Simulator
I mostly just Assetto Corsa & BeamNG these days. One for online cozy racing, and the other for fucking around in a sandbox and/or rally racing.
>>724742670If that’s true then it’s good I am playing them in the reverse order. 120 hours played in Crew 2 and 60 hours played in Crew Motorfest, but truth be told I mostly fuck around and explore
>>724735004Where do you get car mods for TXR?
Is there anything that scratches the same itch that the Motorstorm series did?
>>724731567for me its gotta be picrel
>>724747781Wait, when were you able to customize your avatar in BeamMP?
>>724747265bro, your dirt4?
>>724731567I like Forza Horizon 5 to cruise around in but I forgot any idea of taking it serious when people started flying by me at 300 mph in roads with curves. I'm too poor for a racing sim setup
>>724747291Cruising around across mini USA on Crew 2 is top fucking tier comfy especially when you get a road bro that does a leg of the drive with you. It's too bad there aren't more games with this scale like there should have been with all the fucking teraflops we have access to
>>724737317samir..
>>724731567>buncha pussy ass niggaswhy are you talking like a fighting game player
>>724749348
>>724749010No-one's playing Forza Horizon with a sim setup, it's a controller game first and foremost
>>724748865i might have to try dirt4 or dirt5.how does it compare to dirt rally 2.0 or EA WRC? (ive played the SHIT out of those)
>>724750171Yeah I was thinking a sim setup for an actual racing sim not FH5. I should have been more clear
>>724750520>i might have to try dirt4 or dirt5.dirt5 is trash. don't.dirt 4 is good, do.>how does it compare to dirt rally 2.0 or EA WRC?Be more specific, compare in what?
What game is best for just sliding around in a high power RWD car?
If you guys do get either the Crew 2 or Crew Motorfest, my one piece of advice is to turn off UI sounds (pic related)If you just want to drive around and be immersed there’s this annoying thing in the open world where your map starts to ping and make noises when you are near a loot crate type reward. Just turn off UI sounds and you’ll never hear it.
>>724751795Oh yeah and the loot crate itself is mostly useless, so don't worry about missing out on something.
>>724746763Damn it was just 17 a little while ago. It will probably go on sale for the holiday/christmas time though
>>724749189That's how I feel about GTA. Look at GTA: San Andreas from fucking 20 years ago. I was expecting modern day GTA games to be like Crew 2, where you could drive from LA to New York (San Andreas to Liberty city) and there would be all this cool funny shit in between.I mean hey at least we apparently got Crew 2. I love going on long pointless trips to nowhere, and I think the radio songs are so good too kek
>>724746763That’s why you never buy an all digital console my friend.

>>724746587Hey man.... don't knock it till you've tried it. I tried out some of these truck sim games and I've weirdly become a fan.
>>724732938True. Dirt 4 is easy and chill
Emulating the first Forza Horizon right nowSeems kino, good fall game
>>724735998R racing evolution
>>724736950I like every forza up to 43 is like gt3 to gt42 has very funky driving physics but still good.
>>724757293
>>724756773ICR 2 separates fags from men and turns them into Chads.Grand Prix 2 and 3 makes fags straight and turns them into Chads.Richard burns and Colin McRae is for the most insane Chads.
>>724732303I lost engine power, and electrical power, so no power steering. No brake boost. No shifting for extra engine braking. Already 30 percent above speed limit. I remember not thinking but feeling>EBRAKE TAP AND COUNTERSTEER.>OFF CAMBER JUST LIKE THE FUCKING LAGUNA SECA CORKSCREW. >UNDERSTEER VS OVERSTEER. AIM AT THE WALL, YOU WILL UNDERSTEER CLEAR.until I made it down to the shallow bottom, and found a convenient ditch to roll into at no speed.
>>724758768nice
>>724758768Nice. GT4 is a bit too arcadey to really be called a proper racing sim but one thing it does very well is portraying real driving dynamics like weight transfer, under/oversteer and corner camber. I guess that's why they call it "the real *driving* simulator" in the tag line.
>>724731567I play GT7 using my PSVR2 that is connected to my PS5 PROFESSIONAL.
should I give this thread a cheeky little bump? hehehe
>>724731567shit on me all you want, i'm only into arcade racers. i've tried simulator type racers many times and i've always been filtered by not being able to feel the car like in real life. keep driving into walls because i can't tell when my tires lose traction.recently got a vr headset, probably gonna give it another go soon.
>>724760496They can call it whatever they want. A bunch of people in my position have died on that mountain, and I'm not one of them. At best I would have had a controlled rub and crash into the hillside or rail without it, possibly after catching the brakes on fire or melting the tires. And I claim a critical difference was working my ass for, and not even getting all golds on GT3 and 4 license exams.Being able to feel when I had traction, and the exact point I lost it. NOT overreacting when I lost traction, and easing back into it. Braking unweighted just stops the wheels and NOT the car, and do NOT just stomp the brake or you spin when you get traction back.. Remembering that when I've lost traction, that my car orientation, my wheel direction, and my motion were not going the same way, and SLOWLY rotating a little.
>>724765703>weight transfer/trail brakingI distinctly remember thinking. Oh shit. I don't have enough brakes to stop. If I jam too hard my brakes will fade, and I can't steer and I go straight off the cliff, like some of the tire tracks visible on the mountain clearly did. Where the fuck do I spend my brake power? I hit the brakes hard on the straight going into key turns, and release it steadily while turning. to shift weight to my front wheels so I could turn harder. Not exactly textbook trail braking, but close enough for a multiple hairpin section. I am sure there's a license test about that. I think A2 or IA3, where you have to time your brakes going in or you just ridiculously fly off the track. Thinking further, the one license test in my mind I was feeling the most was the GT3 one I never got gold on, full lap in a red skyline. I think B final?And at the bottom of the hill I distinctly remember the smell and maybe smoke from hot brakes and tires, and I could hear my pulse in my ears. The hot night full of crickets, and the moon. And I was so stressed I was halucinating, hearing this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_BDasfJ9dk8I also remember on the way down seeing a "runaway truck stop ramp" and thinking "i'm not a truck, I can't use that", and then thinking "i'm a complete fucking dumbass" after I had stopped.I remember my parents being very anti video game. I'm not a car person. I'm not a great player. I still play racing games, and I'm bottom 10 percent in skill anytime I've been on an online leaderboard and am frequently the very last person there. And I'm very happy with that. I also still fuck up the laguna seca corkscrew at least 1 time out of 10
>>724765660The Crew 2 and Crew: Motorfest are arcadey games, or so I am told. I will try to pick up Forza Motorsport next time it goes on sale and try to see what the big difference is.
>>724736950Ahh, 458 my beloved,shame there is no manual version in existance....
>>724765435Based and diabolical pilled.
>>724765660When you play a sim racer you need to actually slow down for corners and use the racing line. You can’t just come up to a turn at full tilt, slam on the brakes and enter the corner on the apex and expect to make the corner. You need to clip your apexes and use the racing line and find brake markers. Start at the 200 board then start shortening up the distance.
>>724767016Forza Motorsport is the first game I’m buying when I get my Xbox.
yeah I never even liked cars but the gameplay is ludokinogot a moza r12 and load cell pedalsgonna get a real racing seat next
>>724731567been getting back into wreckfest 2 and beamng with a little bit of asetto corsa
>>724770080I like watching BeamNG videos. It looks like such a fun game. That flood one was cool.
>>724770004I saw it on sale a few weeks ago and I stupidly didn't get it. Hoping it'll go on sale again soon.
