****Official Project CARS thread****

I've just set the controller up the same as i use it on Forza and at least the zakspeed capri is fine with no assists, manual with clutch on a track i know :)

I wont be in chat, but my stream is here -->

After a couple of laps i'm liking this game very much.

EDIT: I dont have a spare button to set to ignition when i stall though, doh!

Right... Got up at 430 to give this a go before I head into work.

I think its fair to say I won't be playing online this weekend. As I need practice. I've spent the last hour setting up my wheel and trying to figure out how to assign functions to buttons lol.
 
Woke up at 5am to see how my download was going, still a little time to go which was a shame, I fancied a cheeky lap before work. I'm in the office now and then it's off to a Playoff Semi-final game tonight but I might be able to stick a hour or so in before the game.

I've added a few people and got one request but if anyone else wants to add me, PS4, feel free: blitzben85

We'll have a few days getting used to it then we should get a GT or Touring Car series under way :D

Any body on Xbox having sound problems? When you the brake, all the games sounds go off until brakes are let go. also when change gear the sound is slow to follow plus random distortion.

good thing it was delayed to sort things out.
 
They definitely still have work to do. The gameplay so far has been solid and enjoyable.

There are just a few minor things that need to be worked on.

For those using the T500RS. the glitch mentioned earlier is true. However, there is a temporary fix. I found out whilst fiddling around.

Simply activate and then deactivate the ps4 controller.
 
From reading reviews and gamers opinions, the game is great and the bugs should be easily sorted in patches.
 
btw with pad use these settings:

Steering assistance on in Gameplay.
In Controls, Configuration,
Set the Controller Input Mode to 3

Steering Deadzone = 50,
Steering Sensitivity = 35,
Speed Sensitivity = 40,
Controller Filter Sensitivity = 35

I would agree. It isn't perfect but it sure is close.... I feel like calling in sick lol.

For the record *just in case my employer has the tools to monitor me* - I will be coming in today.... Yayyyy....
 
Just started this a couple of hours ago but the career mode is locked on x1. Does anyone else have this problem?? makes the game more or less a glorified demo
 
Xbox one user here, looks lovely!

However so far i've had a sound glitch where there were no car sounds, the only thing i was getting was my pit guy talking to me. That was resolved with quitting and restarting.

Another thing, i'm using joypad, not sure if its normal but the steering seems to be incredibly slow, like almost as if somethings wrong.

Now i admit i've never driven a 500BHP Sierra RS500 around Le Mans before....but is it really that slow to steer?! I can literally have my finger pressed in either direction and it feels like an eternity for the car to turn, same with the go karts i tried too! Not sure if i need practise or if theres some setting somewhere i can tweak.

Any ideas?

EDIT: After watching other peoples in car videos there is something definately very wrong with my game!!

Ps4 and performance seemed fine until I took a bac around California highway and omg. The screen tear was terrible, and the entire game felt choppy and just terrible performance..

Which was so odd, as all other tracks I tried after it unlocked at 12:00 felt just fine.. Monza, nurburgring, Silverstone etc.. I think Silverstone had some small hiccuping in fps but nothing like California highway.. That highway was ugly to play on.

Also , when in replay mode, is there no way to pause the replay and take a photo of your car, as I couldn't find any way to do it..

Game is feeling a little unfinished IMO but still has great potential.

It desperately needs a v sync option. Or a lock to 30 fps going on certain tracks performance... It needs more cars in certain classes, the zak speed Capri , you race a field in some class. You get a Capri and a BMW 3 series on the grid. Thats it. Not much variety ...

If SMS invest time to finish this game via patches and fix the issues etc it could be really epic, but as if is. Its good but could be much better... I think SMS just ran out of time. Its been an ambitious project for them and you can see their vision so fingers crossed plenty of patches and extra content is added over the coming months..
 
Went for pro difficulty at the start as I want it fairly realistic but what aids should I use preferably for a pad user as I don't want it extremely hard:o?

Also I can't find Ai difficulty settings.
 
Is it worth getting it now or waiting until "bugs" are patched.

I have no plans on using a wheel but will be playing it on my ps4.

High I'm using mode 2, I really have no idea what all the settings do!

I have anti lock and traction control on but steering assistance is off what does that exactly do?
 
I have this on ps4 (pad) and pc (wheel). Whilst I can quite happily drive on pro with no aids whatsoever with the wheel on pc, I currently have to have auto gears, ABS, stability control and traction control on PS4 with a pad yet still having difficulty as I get used to it. Though some cars are easier than others, I'm having a reasonable amount of difficulty even in the clio!

Haven't played around with the 3 presets yet...
