Raceroom Racing Experience

Any of you have any experience with this title?

How does it compare with the other PC Sims out here?

DAIR · 13 Feb 2016 at 14:27

I've just looked up details of Raceroom. And I'm not sure how I feel about it being a "free" to play title.

So I think I will give that a miss.

If you want a decent sim: Rfactor, Rfactor 2, GT Legends are the main ones I would recommend. Plenty of content and all are moddable, definitely Rfactors.

Will look those up now.

Have recently started AC. Decent game. However, the AI is pretty brutal lol

Wasn't aware of that time limit.

Isn't there anything out there that offers a decent balance?

DAIR · 13 Feb 2016 at 18:17

I see.

I do have project cars. However, that on the PS4 and there's no way I'm reconnecting my thrustmaster back to that thing (PC had the wheel spinning like crazy on the PS4).

I've decided to Gove race room a try. Downloading now.

As mentioned I downloaded the title yesterday. Done a few laps in one of the free cars. And thought it seemed okay. It also looked pretty good on my PC too.

I also decided to purchase the 2015 DTM Experience Pack. Something I hope I'll enjoy.

It seems like you prefer it over Assetto Corsa. May I ask why? I haven't tried RaceRoom yet, but AC is just so damn good and always improving.

Assetto Corsa is a great game. However, it's single player mode is rather poor. I can't see console gamers enjoying it.

Physics are great. Probably the best I've experienced in a long time.

For single player mode I prefer RRE.

DAIR · 15 Feb 2016 at 10:54

I've yet to go online with either game. Will do so soon enough though.

One other area where I think RRE surpasses its rivals. Is it's AI. The AI appears to be both challenging and far intelligent enough not to smack into your backside at most concerns.

Anyone else on here play then regularly?

DAIR · 20 Feb 2016 at 12:19

The UI has definitely been improved.

As for the payment model. I felt the same way at first. However, it seems as though a lot has gone into the various packs. And you're never made to pay for what you already have.

For example I'm tempted to grab the adac gt3 masters pack. Since I already have the dtm package, I already have a number of the tracks which feature in the gt3 package. As a result I'm entitled to a decent discount.

Just testing out my streaming software

DAIR · 6 Mar 2016 at 07:36

I haven't tried the multiplayer mode yet. May give it a try today.

That particular race was just a single player session.

A difficult one

Will definitely be bagging it.

Went and downloaded the GT2 pack of the weekend. Along with the Bathurst track. Bloody difficult.... But still enjoyable.

DAIR · 10 Mar 2016 at 18:02

Do either of you experience force feedback deadzone?

Currently feeling this. Its strange because I don't have this in assetto corsa. Perhaps I need to adjust my settings?

DAIR · 13 Mar 2016 at 13:27

A few pics from a Bathurst practice session.

Any of you use these Sim Racing apps? I downloaded Dash Meter Pro earlier. Its pretty decent!

DAIR · 22 Mar 2016 at 20:36

And another one. This time from Bathurst.

DAIR · 22 Mar 2016 at 21:40

Should be working now.
