Any PC Gamers Around?

I'm sure Read or Not devs didn't mean what kotaku shitheads would love them to mean.

My dad came to visit yesterday and I showed him my racing simulator setup on Assetto Corsa. Nothing brought me more joy than watching my 65yo dad ripping thru Monza on a Lamborghini Aventador. He struggled the first few laps but got the hang of it quite quick. I would be sitting on the living room talking to my mom while I could only hear my Dad ripping thru gears on the long straights.

Downloaded Project Cars 2 to my Xbox since I wanted a little more variety. Couldn't figure out why the game felt like shit and my times were so slow. Then I finally noticed 100% on TC is off and 1% is full nannies mode lol.

That'll probably be my next game, A.C can be fun, but does require a lot of mods, and during testing with even the SOL mod, the game tends to lag a bit. So I'm just going to download car mods and tracks. The sound mixing could use some tweaking too.

Aside from how fun the 86 is on the track, Ayrton Senna's F1 Lotus is a joy to drive, same thing with Nikki Lauda's Ferrari from the 80s.

The physics in PC2 leave a bit to be desired. The cars feel very loose.

Well that's a shame. I wonder PC 3 is any better. I've been looking at iRacing too but paying a monthly subscription for a game that even if its very well known, looks a bit lacking graphics wise.



If Gran Turismo would be ported to PC I would jump on that right away.

I heard PC3 is not that great compared to the first two games. Have you looked at Automoblillista? Have heard great things about it.

We do rFactor2 events weekly, and will be dabbling with assetto Corsa competizione soon. Some paid tracks but nothing like the cost of entry for iRacing. And no ongoing fees. ACC is pretty dang good. RF2 is good enough.

Ok, I know you all have discussed your driving sim setups before, but now I'm actually paying attention lol. What does everyone use hardware-wise? Controller, wheel on desk, sim rig, etc?

Seriously considering building a sim rig and a new gaming PC once GPUs are available again. Hopefully soon.

I am using a Logitech G920 right now. I have a Fanatec CSL DD on order but I won't see it till mid to late March. For a seat I have been using a Playseat since it folts up nice. It doesn't allow good options for a shifter or e-brake though, and you need to calibrate your brake pedal so that 100% is a bit light or you will lift the front of it up under hard braking. Once I have the space I will be using the stock driver seat out of my car to build a proper setup with a PC and multiple monitors.

The ones that come with the Logitech, they are meh. Serviceable but not great. I heard the Thrustmaster TH300 with pedals is a better option.

I have also noticed the G920 has gotten a bit sloppy on center but it has endured about 3 years of use.

This was on Jalopnik this morning. No personal experience.
