SIM Racing: Do you?
-
I loooove Motorsport, but have neither a track or race car. So I got the living room equivalent. Anybody else do the GT Sport/ Asseto Corsa/ Project cars 2? If so, hit me up on the PlayStation, ST80MND is my gamer tag. If you do, let me know somehow you are Oppo, so I don’t think it’s spam!
-
I'm on PC (no cross-compatibility... dang) but the primary car-related games I play are Wreckfest (demolition derby racing and super fun), but I've sunk a lot of my recent time into BeamNG and Automation (not racing games, but thought I'd mention them).
I'm saving up for Forza Horizon 7 so I can get into the Oppo endurance races, one of which is happening today/tomorrow I think.
-
Do you have a wheel or using a standard pad? I got a hella cheap PC bundle of Asseto Corsa, Project Cars and Dirt rally but have found them nearly uncontrollable with a pad, I gotta buy a wheel next year when things calm down round here.
-
@st80mnd I do Assetto Corsa and iRacing but on PC....also, we may do Rcaeroom since its free
-
@taylor-martin Wreckfest, heck ya! I was racing in a clean racing league in it last year, was a lotta fun...its actually a very good handling arcade engine

Forza Horizon 7 is probably 5 years away, Forza Motorsport 7 however I'd steer clear as FM8 is due soon but also FM7 suffers from stuttering graphics, even on stupidly powerful computers, I can play quite a few games high graphics at 4k yet I get stutters on FM7 1080p on low settings
-
I'll probably get back into it as winter sets in, haven't played much lately as weather has been conducive to outdoor activities. I'm on Playstation as well but I don't really play online aside from occasionally chasing leaderboards on Dirt 2. I could be convinced to join some Oppo GT Sport racing though.
-
I'm planning to get a rig and PS4 this winter for AC and PC2!
-
@samv8 Forza doesn’t give the ability to choose what open lobby to join, it just throws you into some rando room. This makes it nearly impossible to get a good race, as there will always be a rammer/troll. I simply cannot play the game anymore because of it, it’s become a complete joke. Really too bad, because it is a fun racer, but the riff- raft ruin it.
-
haven't tried FM7 online in years because of the stutter
-
@italianjobr53 Oh that sounds like a blast! I'm... how do I put it... not so clean. I drive an A-class Tristar (don't see a lot of people using those but I've been using it since like day 1). Super light, loves to drift, fun in the dirt. I'm sure you're better than me, but if you have it on PC/steam you should add me. My username is UNKNOWN (idk why)
-
@samv8 Whoops, I meant Forza Motorsport, not Horizon. I would've only gotten it for the Oppo racing league, but if they move to FM8 I'll hop on that instead.
-
@taylor-martin Will add you!
Its been almost a year since I touched WF tho...I'll check it out now. Think it needs like 5gb of updates lol
I used to be decently fast with the Roadcutter fully maxed out with no armor; iirc I had top 5 LB times on 4 5 tracks
EDIT: Cant find you on Steam...I used the chat function on Hyphen to send you my friend code tho -
I'm on the xbone with my rig. Made a set up with PVC, some pieces of wood, and a Ford Fiesta seat from the junkyard. All together was about $30. I play just about everything on it: Forza (motorsport and horizon), F1, Nascar, Wreckfest, Dirt (regular and Rally).
-
No room for the steering gear on the boat. :(( FWIW, I have what I think is a Logitech g27 setup in storage. Wheel, pedals and shifter. I did a bit of iRacing a couple years ago and my roommate gave it to me. Lemme dig it out of storage and weight and pack it and I'll make a post for it. Xmas is coming and I'm sure one of you can use it to it's fullest.
-
@italianjobr53 I just added you. Mixed up my usernames, it was officialjackwrench. I haven't touched the game in a while, but I remember being either pretty good at it or hilariously awful depending on the day/my star sign/the weather.
Still, hit me up anytime whether it's on here or elsewhere! I've been looking for someone to play WF with for AGES and now I have you!
(sidenote: when you messaged me on here I didn't actually get any notification or alert in the chat bubble icon. I'll be checking that more though).
-
@taylor-martin Yup, accepted your friend request!
I played it briefly today, seems like there are no more cleanish servers any more which makes me sad
-
@italianjobr53 I thought they still had some C-Class clean racing servers? Those felt slow, but they're still a hoot, so it's sad to see them go. The new tracks are amazing though (the loop is really fun).
-
@Taylor-Martin ooh yeah the C class ones are still there I think...but C class is slow
-
I still play Forza 7 and Forza Horizon 4 on Xbox. I have Assetto and PC2, as well as a few others, but I admittedly don't pay them a ton of attention.
Any of you can feel free to add me on Xbox Live if you ever feel so inclined. My XBL tag is JogCon

@samv8 That could be some sort of graphics syncing issue, I was getting lag spikes on FH3 with relatively decent hardware, and the internet basically told me to turn off the game's Vsync settings and go through the Nvidia control panel and turn it on for the game that way which did solve my stuttering issues, so the same may be the case for FM7.
-
I have a Fanatec wheel setup which I use a lot with GT Sport. I'm eagerly awaiting GT7 on PS5.
I tried to add you on PSN, but you didn't show up in the search results. Shoot me an friend invite if you can: MarquetteLa

So this happened lol
