*******C.A.R.S - Community Assisted Race Sim*********

not played this for months, so i downloaded it again today and gave it a shot..

much improved, triple screen is far better now and i get much better performance on my 580 sli, cars feel better aswell i can actually feel what the tyres are doing abit now...

still on the arcade side but it is fun and it looks great...

bathurst is just epic...
 
I don't suppose anyone uses a PS3 controller with this game? I know the 360 controller works with PC but I've just never really got on with them. If its a too much of a PITA then I'll put up with the 360.

Thanks :)

i'd be very suprised if you didnt. its called the caper stock car (road). with the new GUI it should be under american stock cars or something

the main reason i'm asking is because i've had the world record for months (except for the times between leaderboard resets and my next run at the track obviously)

*edit*
ghosts are all working in the next build, bar the server getting swamped with ghost uploads

Was going for a cycle this evening, but the weather is crap. Pretty tempted to try this, mainly for the selection of tracks, just something different from F1 2011.

Worth it? Which package?

The one thing that worries me a bit is I've heard people saying it's very NFS? The last NFS I played had horrible handling and worse physics.

its worth it for the junior package, its defo getting better, its still on the arcade side of things but its a lot of fun...defo aint no NFS tho...
 
you can upgrade your package any time you want, so pick up the junior package and see if you like it. if you like it then upgrade to team member or full member to get the weekly builds rather than monthly builds

personally i find its somewhere between forza and iRacing in terms of realism, but they're aiming for it to be at the top of the pile when its done.
what they arent aiming for is the misconception that no grip = realistic, which is what quite a few racing drivers feel has happened to some sims

i havent tried the F1 car in ages. did it feel like a spin caused by wheelspin or icy rear tyres? i know F1 engines idle very high (~8000RPM IRL i think) so it might have been a bug with the clutch

Bought the Junior one about 20 mins ago. I don't see anywhere to download it, so I guess I have to wait for them to setup access for my acc?

scroll down on this link: http://forum.wmdportal.com/downloads.php

that will get you the launcher which should automatically download everything you need.

there is a link to the build 249 torrent file in this thread if you cannot download it through the launcher for some reason (build 249 gets patched to build 296)
