Just got this meanwhile some fags were bidding 70 and 90k for the barebones version. Feels fucking great.

I mean there's nothing wrong with this track, but I just don't get the hype for it. It's relatively new and aside from the corkscrew, there's not really anything that separates it from any other local racing track.

copy paste the original nords folder and clean it up
i have nords winter and wet as 2 layouts in a seperate folder

why do wrc games suck so much bros?

7 is apparently ok but i havent been willing to gamble $50 to find out if its true

The boring part is learning it.

I wouldn't say that they suck, they're just firmly in the meh area and can never really get out of that zone and become good.

>tfw can't do carousels fast from the inside without the car wobbling and crashing

God, this course seems tiring just looking at it

>learning tracks

It's a stop in several big motorsports championships going back decades. It's got more reason being in a game than some shitty place like Yas Marina for example.

>It's a stop in several big motorsports championships going back decades.
Yeah, i don't get why they all go there either. It's like one of those celebrities that are famous for being famous.
>It's got more reason being in a game than some shitty place like Yas Marina for example.
no argument there

yas marina is a stop in several big motorsport championships for 8 years so it's getting there

wtf is wrong with yas marina? i think it's pretty

Forza Horizon 3 or Dirt 4 (or both)? Pros/cons? I liked Dirt 3 a lot, haven’t really played any of the Forza games. Going to get it on Xbox 1, I need something to tide me over until I have the time and money to dedicate to IRL racing.

why are you so shit

FH3
Its less focused than dirt and you'll most likely get more time out of it

Jesus, learn to fucking drive

this is why nobody plays in /ovg/

Checked. Thanks for the advice

if the AI didn't evade he would have posted a webm saying the AI was shit anyway

Guys, I fixed the break pedal that had it's spring snapped. I ghetto rigged a bicycle rubble handle to act as the new "spring"

H-have I gone too far this time?

Are there any delta time plugins for rfactor 1?

>dfgt
>d-pad up, down and left paddle not always work
>also cracked optical encoder disc

...

Thanks user, but the "repair" is already complete and aside from losing the 10-15% of the maximum input(which I will adjust in settings to compensate) it actually has a much more sturdy and progressive load feel similar to a real car.
I can believe this but this nigger solution might actually be an upgrade aside form making my already silly setup look even more ridiculous

open it up and glue encoder together. it's piss easy, really

Name a better game

>iracing lets you take a GT on an RX track
>meanwhile dirt rally is all no fun allowed and doesn't let you take a rally car on an RX track

Probably because it's still based on the arcade physics engine in other Dirts. The physics of each category is designed specifically for those tracks and would be weird on other tracks

Follow up question: is fh3 ultimate edition worth it?

ultimate gets you the first 6(?) car packs which were ok/good and vip which gives you loadsamoney which is nice. it really depends on the price. it doesnt include the expansions so beware. if youre getting an expansion id personally recommend hotwheels just for the novelty

what is it going for ?

>doesnt ram me in the final turns

clean racing on forza is pure kino
i.4cdn.org/wsg/1513804195384.webm

if all races were no contact by default forza 7 might be an okayish game

too bad it's not and forza 7 online is burnout 3: remastered edition

It’s 90 USD on the Xbox online store, I can probably find a used copy of the base game for about 40

>didn't give a car's width of space on the track for the car you didn't finish passing yet
>wonders why it freaks out

You must be that every-fucking-faggot-in-forza I see in every race.

>clean racing on forza is pure kino
This. The problem is that it's just so rare to come across. Some races I've had were better than any race I ever had on any public AC server. But most aren't.
Then again, rammers in Forza don't really piss me off. What does is just the general instability of the game itself

don't hate the players, hate the game

not their fault the devs are incompetent as all fuck

>tfw no racing game where crashing your car actually wrecks it and you have to buy a new one
would make rammerfags shape up right fucking quick

kinda steep based on the age of the game imo. the car packs dont have any cars i would consider essential and the vip isnt a necessity because you can get money at an ok rate. maybe wait for christmas sales on the marketplace? it goes on sale frequently
i still recommend hotwheels because its a unique experience

Is it possible to add extra events in GRID? Like instead of 6 events on tier 1 have 8?

>FM7
>Ferrari 458 S is openly available
>Ferrari 458 is locked

>if all races were no contact by default forza 7 might be an okayish game
i disagree because ghost races just turn into hotlapping with leaderboard cars whereas you can hold a position with a fwd civic if things go ok in a contact race. i couldnt use that civic in non contact because it just isnt competitive

the rammers dont annoy me as much as the fact that t10 has made no effort to try and combat it despite years of complaints

>f12tdf is open
>f12 is locked

>m4 gts open
>m4 locked

Anyone else feel like they screwed up the sound on this? It makes almost no noise below 5000RPM, I know it's not a big deal but it's kind of an immersion breaker when heel toeing.

You probably drive like shit and was snap-oversteering mid corner.

there is nothing wrong with this. if you dont want to get bullied off the track maybe you should either go faster or turn on the inside

sfx sux for these cars, all either recycled or worse than current cars which is an achievement

>Ferrari 458 S is openly available
>Ferrari 458 is locked
>m4 gts open
>m4 locked

That's because the locked ones are the ones with the Rocket Bunny or Liberty Walk or whatever widebodykits. Same thing with the Aventador. The SV is not locked, the regular one is locked and the regular one is the one with the widebody.
But there are some other cars that are in the game twice and for some reason the older and/or slower version is almost always the one locked eventhough it doesn't have any unique features or upgrades, atleast as far as I'm aware of

>The physics of each category is designed specifically for those tracks and would be weird on other tracks
2bh lad this makes literally no sense in terms of game, system, or software design. it would be reasonable if the cars performed poorly, as would be expected from doing silly shit like taking tarmac-tuned GT cars to bumpy-ass rallycross circuits, but it's silly to assume the cars would literally not work in that the game-as-software would malfunction

you guys are bitches if you think that's "bullying" the AI

2bh if you don't always try to pass people by drifting past them on the inside, and don't cackle like a madman when it's done to you, you probably hate fun

the regular challenger and charger and the older cherokee are locked too

Yeah, I guess AC has never had good sound.

Nah, just a boring engine.

I do drive like shit though.

Seriously there is nothing online about how to do this or if it's even possible.

That's not bullying the AI.
That's bad driving.

How do we fix Assetto Corsa?

While clean races in GT Sport are much more the norm, it still feels so refreshing to have some light dicing going on.

im confident that 99% of people who create products today never once attempt to use those products before dumping them on the market

I used to think it was a lack of passion for the craft, but this is just laziness

>It's relatively new and aside from the corkscrew, there's not really anything that separates it from any other local racing track.
The corners immediately before and after the corkscrew are the actual fun ones, and no your local track does not have anything like them.

why playtest when you can do it and pay at the same time

>it's hard
>it's Mazda
>it's american
all it needs to be a meme

They don't have the time to play the games they make because they are busy making the next game.

Holy fuck racing game players are SHOCKINGLY shit at everything.

>aside from its unique features, it doesn't really have any unique features
are you gay

lmao nigga if you want to see someone who can only play one genre and even then not well, look up the FGC

at least people I can have fun with in Forza can also have fun in Halo or Ace Combat or whatever, FGC people are absolutely useless in anything that isn't their particular chosen iteration of SFIV

This is very australian

poorly

ONLY words can hurt me

I've only been not-depressed enough to report in to work because I've given up on everything I enjoy, including playing racing games 2bh. Even when I can wrangle some people to come out with me to play Forza, they don't even bother trying, and it's clearly just a pretext. A pretext for what, I don't know, maybe just having me around out of habit? I barely invite people to go do whatever with me anyomre because I know it'll fail, and even if it doesn't, the night won't be any fun, no one will want to do anything I wanna do, and in the off chance they share any interest at all, they're just going to make fun of my tastes and skill level no matter what. I can put all the assists on and set it to auto transmission, and I'm a shitter scrub, I set everything off and put on manual with clutch and I'm a retard because there isn't an analog button left for the clutch petal so I'm being dishonest. Meanwhile, they run with all the assists on, still lose, call it hard, and blame me for not making it fun. I explain how to drive with the shit off, and how whatever particular game we're playing interprets inputs, and they still blame me for their inability to drive. It's obvious they never were having fun and won't have fun with this, but they don't have any other suggestions, and even if I bring non-racers, and physical dice, or just myself and beer, it's all still never going to be good enough. And the same happens with everything else, biking, shooting, anything. My skill level is always both too low and yet very fradulent and pretentious, and trying to reach out is belligerent

Have a cold/flu. Can't see, can't breath.

i want to say something helpful but the truth is i have no advice
im sorry

Your friends are a bunch of fags

How come the 33 Stradale is a thousand times more pleasant to drive than the Giulia?

When they said they'd release this car, i instantly thought "who cares about that old ass maccaroni car"
I couldn't be further from the truth.

Stop measuring your enjoyment off of other people. Most of them are so zoned out that they don't like anything.

thanks gun jesus

It's an old race car vs a modern sport sedan
Apples to oranges

>that was supposed to be zandvoort

Why are you trying to get people to enjoy a niche thing they'll never enjoy?
Just enjoy spending time with people doing whatever they find fun and enjoy your niche geeky weird interests on your own time.

You are right, but i thought the Alfa would drive better than that. It literally feels like a italian M4.
And i kinda like the M4 in AC, it's just that i was expecting something a little wilder.
