Had a couple of hours on it this afternoon. Honestly, I think it's awesome. Clearly a long way to go and many bugs to fix, but the cars on the whole feel very good and visually it is stunning. Looking forward to future releases.

Tbh it’s worth throwing £19.49 at it now to get the full game when it finally releases.

Yeah, that's what I'm doing, I'm confident it will be awesome in time!!

Same feelings i have about the game, and to think it should only improve in all aspects, winner winner all day long.

Did a little testing at Imola to try and dial in my FFB. Think my wheel must be showing it's age as regardless of what I adjusted I wasn't feeling major differences and was definitely relying on tyre scrub sounds to know what was going on more than I normally would. Recorded a little clip at max settings 4xMSAA although only used Windows game bar to record so captured at 1080P. Got down to mid 1:45's by the end of the session which felt reasonable. Suspect when I go back into VR I'll feel more.

I need to play with the FFB settings. I was not getting the detail I expected through the wheel. I tried it back to back with ACC and I felt way more connected to the car. I drove the M2 CS Racing so I don’t think it was down to the car setup.

I have just one question: can I drive any car on any track ab initio?

Yes any car on any track, not sure what the last bit of your sentence was lol.

It just means 'From the beginning ' essentially.

Strange to put in a racing forum. Only ever used it in my previous insurance life, never anywhere else tho as no one would understand !

Just out of curiosity as I read the roadmap for the Early Access. Apart from the initial niggles with online only excluding cars. They have stated VR Step 1, Step 2 coming later etc amount of cars and tracks fixed within a day but people are refunding? Apart from the initial day one online issue with car access what were people expecting to justify a refund or did they just not look into it at all and assume the whole game was there as the developers were pretty open about it as far as I can tell?

And again regarding graphics. From the videos I have watched - it is much better than default AC and it is their own engine so will definitely need optimisation etc but due to the own engine architecture this will always be reliant on feedback etc rather than taking an existing engine (UE) and applying the most common optimisations.

I unfortunately won't be able to play this due to money issues which led me to sell my wheel and rig. But for under £20 easily available people still don't seem to understand 'early access' and the clear roadmap set out by the developers.
