I love them,you probably do tooTalk about Racing Games
>>750279329I love them but the devs are too lazy to come up with something new. There's an entire world of physics and mechanics that racing games still haven't explored that could be cool additions to the gameplay.
>>750279329QUICK CLAIM YOU'RE CARFU BEFORE SOMEONE DOES
>>750280425Does it have to be Road Legal?
GT7also I'm revisiting crash team racing this weekend
>>750279329Is there much of a difference between dirt rally games moving forward after dirt rally 1? The games isnt on the store anymore...
>>750280425
>>750281042Is Blur worth playing?
>>750281080I like the game very much and reinstall it every couple of years for a play through. It's a shame they stopped selling it.
>>750279329i love running the touge on assetto corsa. but it's been getting kinda boring and i'd love to do some circuit racing is there any game that is similar to grand turismo?
>>750281067that looks amazingis the new star wars racer actually good?
>>750279329>racing games in VRthe only way I can play now
>>750281148yea,we really need to change how licensing works
>>750281198
>>750281198Yep and we've been blessed with vr mods recently it expended the library by quite a bit.
>>750281373
Guys, why is going fast so much fun and so exciting?
I'm Tesla gaming.
What's your carfu?I have a soft spot for the 2006 Ford GT
>>750281774thanks to gran turismo 2 mine is also a GT, just a bit older
>>750281774
Games for this feel
>>750282034This nigga hitting me right in the feels with the stratos. Why aren't cars allowed to be kino anymore?
>>750282154My summer carBeaterCore
>>750280425Ford Sierra RS500, a car for men.

>>750282154
>>750282209It's gonna take a while for manufacturer to course correct but believe that at least euro ones saw that they absolutely can't compete with china in term of cost effectiveness so they're bringing back iconic designs.Who the fuck knows maybe we'll get full EVs with speakers blasting fake engine noise for the cool factor as well as virtual gearboxes?I just hope I won't die before this happens
>>750281774growing up my first pick in any racing videogame that had the option was a chrysler pt cruiser, i still like it to this day for some odd reason
>>750279329just waiting for recomps is all
>>750281276okay this is epici won't pay for the brazilian banana game though
>>750280425always going to be picrel
I'm playing Initial Unity Reborn and its really fun.Love racing on the touge with the EG6 and R32.
>>750282694isn't this just FUMES
NFSU2 is still king all these years later.
>>750282510Beyond the grim realization that most electric cars sold are chink made (good luck beating a 20k BYD SUV when most other options start at 40k), I don't think we have the tech to fix the biggest flaw of EV which is range, especially for smaller cars, they're heavy as fuck so they cut the batteries to sort of limit the weight which further increases the problem. Bringing back iconic designs is good because it tackles the ugly aspect of EVs though. But you still got the sound aspect which is awful.
>>750282693>Initial Unity RebornIs it better than the one on steam? what does this change compared to the vanilla?
>>750282821>Open world racersThis will never work.
>>750282787...no?
>>750282842>Is it better than the one on steam?I dont know which game you mean.>what does this change compared to the vanilla?If by vanilla you mean the regular Initial Unity, the Reborn version adds way more cars featured in the anime (e.g. Integra and Evo IV) and tracks.
>>750279329been playing the fh2 recomp, it's the same shit as any other fh game but there's just something about driving a classic ferrari around the mediterranean coast
>>750283373That's a small car.
>>750282519Anon before this thread dies, you need to be made aware that Hot Wheels this year has made the PT Cruiser under the name PT Fast. It has a Dodge Viper engine detailed in the rear.
I only care about racing management games at this point, used to play Motorsport Manager but now Team Principal: A Racing Manager came out and i'm enjoying that one more, especially since its a lot more complex.
>>750279329First game I ever played was a racing game, so I have a soft spot for them. Best games are not-racing games with racing segments in them
>>750282346No other game can match PGR4 car selection. It's a love letter.

>>750283601
>>750280425>>750281774Still the best
>>750283883Obviously you're right anon, but you know what I meant.
>>750279329I have been playing a handful of racing games on handheld emulators>midnight club L.a remix is pretty cool and has 2 campaigns instead of one like the console version>midnight club 3 on psp is hard as balls, unfairly so most of the time IMO, i don't remember it being this hard on the remix edition.>burnout legends is kind of cool but apparently they fucked with the physics somehow and it is now really hard to do takedowns. Not sure why they did that but it kind of ruined the game for me. burnout 3 is the way to go with this one. Might try dominator later>wipeout hack that ahs both psp games into one package, it is ok but i have no idea how to not fucking crash. is memorizing the track the only way?>f-zero for gameboy advance, same as above>outrun, it is fun but unlocking stuff is a pain, i just want better carsWanna try ridge racer
>>750283601>Best games are not-racing games with racing segments in themAbsolute buffoonery.
>>750284168race-prepped vans/wagons/truggs will always be peak

>>750280425C9 my beloved, I can't get any faster than 5:57.089 in nordschleifer on you. You bust my balls and I love it.
>>750281190It's Criterion at their best again.
Say hi to my next car (it'll be Reanult's new rally car btw)
>>750283601ugh i hate playing racing segments in non racing games, they feel like a chore.
>>750284698Apparently they're releasing a new RS in 2027.
>>750282676nice miata
>>750284356
>>750284761Aren't you sure that's not just a prototype/concept?
>>750281018Dirt Rally 2 has all the stages from DR1 and more.EA Sports WRC was supposed to be Dirt Rally 3, but was converted to a licensed WRC game after they got the license. All new content and stages. Sadly due to staff losses midway through development, it doesnt look as good as Dirt Rally 2, but it has its moments. Overall still great though.Fun fact, heres the soundtrack for the Dirt Rally 3 that never happened https://reporter.bandcamp.com/album/30
Any zoomers here?
>>750282936TDU 1 and 2 are great games
>>750284898EA WRC has some great stages as well as a great rosters of cars but Unreal Engine is so fucking ass it ruins everything.All we can hope for is some AI assisted wizardry to port the stage to a better game.
Is there any good racing game that uses a wheel on PC focused on singleplayer content? Everything I see is online sim race autism, rally (not my cup of tea), or Forza (not good with a wheel).
>>750285047Wreckfest 2. 1 is good too but wheel doesn't feel that good on a wheel.>inb4 >early accessJust play multiplayer until the final game releases :^)
>>750280425>that V10 howl
>>750285138They released the car DLC already? Where my bus niggers?!
>>750285047Autonomista 2 unironically.Wide range of cars and tracks, you can have single races or single player championships, both premade and custom ones you can assemble yourself with tracks, cars, single or multi class championships, points systems and length of each race and how many sessions per track. It's quite neat.
>>750285047Driveclubuse the ingame hardcore handling mode, then use the launcher's wheel settings
>>750285316Career mode when. No, I won't install mods for that.
>2026>still no Project Gotham Racing 5 and no ATV Offroad Fury 5Wtf?
>>750285326Should I use 540º for a wheel? Seems too much for an arcade game.
>>750285047Gravel is cool is you like offroad stuff. The TV Show setting is kinda cringe but it's not that bad.If you got a chink wheel that's not support you can use this software ( https://github.com/camborambo/SteeringWheelEmulator ) to emulate a G920 which should pretty much be compatible with every PC games released in the last 15yrs
>>750285209>Where my bus niggers?!
>>750281190>>750284639If you like arcade racers and Star Wars GET THIS GAME. I played it like non-stop for a week.
>>750284873Might've been actually.
NYOOM
>>750285316>Look up on steam>$90 leafbucks even on saleNah fuck that.>b-b-b-bbut you don't need the DLCs!In my experience with these games mods won't work without having all the DLC.
>>750279329What game is that by the way?
>>750281774most old looking muscle cars. especially if they have a blower. too bad they are all incredibly expensive nowadays.Ill try to buy pic related some day. no possibility of a blower unless I engine swap but it is still a neat car.
>>750285789claude, give me The Run but with no qte sections and no load screens, just a purely seamless drive from coast to coast
Wished they posted the game on steam than making early access on patreon
>>750285928https://hop.earth/
Is VR worth it for racing games or is it triples better? Triples is more expensive and cumbersome to setup, but I heard it's comfier than VR and I also don't like the idea of strapping screens right up to my eyes causing strain.
>>750285848Probably Tokyo Xtreme Racer.
>>750286075VR is a pain in the ass to get in, you'll never really be able to sit down and grind a track for 8hrs with it on because it gets fucking hot and you're getting itchy and the software sucks and it crashes and whatever.Yet that's all I want to use because getting proper depth perception on top of head tracking is non negotiable for me.
>>750285928American truck simulator got a road trip DLC where you can drive through roughly 50% of the US (and more with mods), but it's limited to boomerslop cars with terrible physics and handling.BeamNG also has a mod where you use google earth data to drive anywhere you want, but it's kind of AIslop and breaks often.
>>750286337
>>750286020kinda neat but also wow that's some vibe coded mishaps
>>750286185Hm thanks I think I'll go with triples then since I usually play for 2+ hour sessions and it sounds uncomfortable with VR. Also do you know if there is a way I can make triples work with just 1 HDMI and 1 DP port? My laptop only has those. I heard there are switches you can buy or something, but I'm tech illiterate.
>>750285848>>750286176yes it's Tokyo Xtreme Racer 2025
>>750285775Yeah, it's expensive, but it's worth it if you also wants multiplayer to top it off.But if just single player you want, there's no need to buy it. Just pirate the latest version and play that.
>>750285047GT4 is surprisingly solid on wheel
>>750285548Nah nigga I want proper coaches, not this hybrid shit mods use now. Besides the only good O400RSD mod out there vanished a long time ago.
>>750286000
>>750286337Here's the mod I was talking about. Cool proof of concept.https://litter.catbox.moe/us8grayzqh1yav4s.mp4
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fd6ixi9hBZk
>>750287361
>>750285047enthusia/gt4/gt5 all have good wheel support. gt5 also supports h shifters. dirt rally is also suprisingly fun for how little content it has
>>750280425>>750281774>want to own an 80s Supra>know for a fact that getting one now will cost trillions to fix it up>smog test will fuck it up>it getting more expensive each yearThis, R32, RX7 FC, and FR-S all being unobtainable due to maintenance, cost, and smog test fucking suck.
>>750284356real FFB in GT2 would be so fucking cool
nostalgia got to me last week and I downloaded a PS2 emulator, I got Need For Speed: Most Wanted 2. That game is unplayable. The GT games (3/4) have aged fine but so many older racing games are horrifically bad now. Controls, graphics, load times, everything.
>>750287305>>750287750i think both GT4 and Enthusia were balanced around wheels. controls are really touchy with a controller in both games unless you apply a few patches.
>>750287750>>750287305GT4 has native wheel support? Like just plug and play? I thought it was just a recomp thing. But if my moza r3 can plug and play I'll definitely download it.
>>750287938you downloaded a game that doesn't exist?
>>750287938>That game is unplayable. The GT games (3/4) have aged fine but so many older racing games are horrifically bad now. Controls, graphics, load times, everything.For me, there is no way to remove the retarded rubberbanding. I remember liking those series in the past because it was my only racing games at the time. Now? I fucking hate this so fucking much when I replay it again.
>>750288002underground 2*
>>7502879381) NFS MW2 is not a real game2) assuming you meant most wanted 1 why the fuck did you emulate a game thats natively on pc
>>750280425>>750287995always did since the PS2. with emulation you can use any wheel you want, too.
>>750287878>smog testlmao, image living in a nanny state with mandatory state inspections and smog tests.couldn't be me.
>>750288105in that case I think you're just fucking retarded
>>750288184Underground 2 was a massive deal back then, Halo 2 levels of popularity. I don't think the gameplay was ever the main draw for it's popularity but I didn't own the game back then. I borrowed it for a bit and liked the car customisation.The PS2 racing game I sank countless hours into was GT3
Lukewarm take but every nfs game is and was ass, they're the ball and gun games of racing games but at least mw was fun with all that destructible buildings
>>750287938ave you tried playing midnight club 3? some of those races are fucking impossible, you have to pray for the A.I to allow you to beat it.the second version of the game was much easier overall.
>>750287668https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L2Lmcnm2MPc
For me ug2 vs mw is the same vice city vs san andreasThere is a one year gap between the games in both cases where the latter has tons of more content and is "objectively" better but for some reason alot of uncs think the older game is better
>>750288149How's the FFB? I know older wheels / games didn't really have that.
I ONLY like Rally and I ONLY like arcade-ish rally AKA Dirt 2. The greatest rally game of all time. FUCK sim racers.
wahoo
>>750289289>implying richard burns rally isn't fucking kinoit's just kind of a pain to set up
>>750289406I think that piano was cheatingAlso I've been looking at videos of racers going up Pikes Peaks. What a gorgeous track, and the background is amazing.I know Gran Turismo has a really primitive interpretation of the track but has any other game tried to replicate it properly?
>>750289615Dirt Rally 1 has it. Otherwise custom maps for Asseto or BeamNG
>>750285075>grid legendsis this any good?
>>750284956Did they ever make a working version of this? I saw it IRL once at an expo but I'd assume it can maybe roll at 5kmh under it's own power.
>>750279329what the fuck, I downloaded txr again right around the time you made this thread>>750282821what's this
>>750290646https://store.steampowered.com/app/4581870/Kaido_Genkai_An_Anime_Racing_RPG_Demo/
>>750290646I want to play that game but the price is a bit too high for a game called "tokyo extreme racer" you know what i mean? There's like a billion japanese car racing shovelware crap on steam so i cant trust that name.
Anyone tried the HalfGrip demo? I thought it would hate it but its super fun. Envirobear combat racing turned out to be way better than I expected but im sure multiplayer will be full of people running macros
>>750291137the localization always made them look like shovelware games but they're pretty good
>>750291137Nta but I get what you mean. Its fun for a bit but its a very simple arcade racer. I wouldn't call it shovelware at all, its a well made game, but they do ask too much for it and are never adding cockpit view
>>750290810They should copy ChoroQ instead of Simpsons
>>750281190I just beat the campaign a few minutes ago.It's a lot of fun, but it is HARD. I mean seriously hard and I'm only playing on the 2nd difficulty. But it's fun, it has a ton of rogue lite elements and it's actually really fun to go through each run.
>>750279329I am addicted to Outrun 2006.No arcade racing game even comes close to having drifting this satisfying.
>>750289615There’s a couple mods out there for various games by I think the best recent native version is in Sebastian Loeb Rally.Have to hope Polyphony finally make use of their Licence for GT8
>>750291635how do i get aaa on everything? do i just get the fastest car?
>>750289615Assetto Corsa basically has every famous track across the globe as mods, although most are paywalled (you can find workarounds usually). The only issue with AC imo is the AI sucks so you can't really enjoy racing, but if you just want to drive around and drift no other game compares.
>>750292348Much easier with Outrun Class cars. And for later stages it helps to learn manual drift (where you gear shift down and immediately back up instead of braking so you mostly keep your top speed). The 99 car races are so fucking fun.
>>750292681i have been using automatic for little while. guess i have to try manual. thanks for the tip.
>>750279329I'm waiting for GT7 on PC
>>750293514you'll be waiting for awhile. just play sport, it's good offline
>>750287995pcsx2 has it. >>750287939tbqh the bigger problem is that they were built around pressure sensitive face buttons which no long exist on modern controllers. playing with a proper throttle improves the experience massively
>>750290393>post EA buyout Codiesi doubt it
>>750293683F1 2020 was the last code game.>F1 2021>Hhmm yes, I know what people want in a F1 game. Super cars, yes. And a shit C tier plot story.>Hmm yes, let's also remove the classic cars too.
>>750293610Not sure about that. There is emulation and that compatibility layer project thay is progressing fastI'd say next year is a pretty sate bet
>Nintendo doesnt have any real racing ga-...
>>750280118"Merry Christmas, Anon! We got you that Wipeout game you wanted!"
>>750293963i'm not sure how they're getting around live service bullshit. the entire game is dependent on servers
>>750279329I'm a huge racist, and my favorite videogame of all time is Tokyo Xtreme Racer Drift 2
>>7502804251970s / 1980s Pontiac Firebird. Real: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-qEC-yxHrY. The Crew Motorfest(1 minute 30 seconds in)t: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DUN8YX9yzHQ&t=1m30s
>>750288990It's a very subjective choice, I like both games but I prefer Underground 2 simply because I find the police chases on Most Wanted to be annoying
I got a gaming wheel for free, but its probably some cheap chinesse toy. Is it worth setting it up to play racing games?
>>750294951what model is it exactly? it's always worth a shot
>>750295014saitek r440. There's so much shit in the box, pedals, the thingy for the table, wheel, some other things. Couldnt fit it all back into the box after unpacking
>>750294843based.One of my biggest regrets in life was not being able to move to america and get a cool muscle car.
>>750281774GR Yaris
>>750292746I did the same for half the game until I saw a random post somewhere about gear drifting, didn't even know it existed before that. Once you get used to it the whole game feels better. Have fun anon.
been playing burnout paradise and i dig it. tried the remaster on steam but it was non-functional while the original on the EA launcher works flawlessly
is midnight club any good? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tf0c4D-cEio
>>750295896yes.playing it right now in fact. recommend at least giving 3 remix and l.a remix a try. 2 is good too.
>>750289615There's a custom map for RBR but I don't know if it's actually good.
>be leaf>play retro racing games>stuck with mp/hi fucking hate this, it literally means nothing to me
what are the best wangan style games? i don't mean the franchise but the genre of racing your rival's hp bar down to zero.
>>750298835Why not just play TXR 2025?
>>750298835thats just tokyo extreme racing.
>>750299162Wangan Midnight also exist. UG2 has one, but also suffer from Rubberbanding where your rivals will go from 0 to 345823057834985738473209778905 if you put some distance in between them.
>>750299452yeah but those are untranslated and I dont know japanese.
>>750299452I've heard Racing Lagoon is good. It has an English patch too.
I'm playing the azimuth pseudo-decomp for Forza Horizon 2.I'm shocked at how well the visuals hold up. Like it more or less matches 6, it's insane. Also considering it's vibe coded it's surprisingly stable and performs well. Been driving the weird looking McLaren Mercedes SLR car. Great engine sound.
>>750299606vibe code a tl
>>750301436pretty sure most forza models are from the 360 and just slightly touched up
