TurboR56Mini reacted to phil bottle in GT 7
Nice one.
I've just finished Cafe books, now going to finish off the licenses.
I've checked setting up lobbies. Good to note we can turn off tuning and enable BOP 👍

I’ll definitely be up for that. I’ve been focusing on the single player challenges and cafe books so still haven’t tried online yet.

hey guys! I picked this up. 😄 Got my first license. Still a noob but wouldn't mind doing multiplayer or whatever 😄

I use the Logitech wheel and pedals for PC, when i play AC and ACC, but the practicalities of setting up in front of the TV means I use the controller for console driving games.
I don't have space for a rig but I would hit up Fanatec if I did.

I think a wheel will always be better simply by the fact of the range you have in pedal and steering input over a controller. However from an enjoyment perspective, having a full rig is far more enjoyable than desk mounted.
By the time I went Fanatec and a full rig I’d been sim racing about 20 years and had a wheel for 15 years of that. So for me it was a relatively easy purschase but I do find it harder to recommend to others because it is a big investment.
However feel, and a sense of speed, is something you’ll always miss but good ffb does help. It’s a different feeling as it’s all through your hands than your ass. But you get attuned to the feeling what the car is doing still. Oversteer is always the obvious one as it forces the wheel to countersteer. But you also get to feel understeer, the floaty feeling when you’re right on the edge of grip etc.
It is the one area I’m struggling with GT7 is getting attuned to the cars and the ffb. Most of the time I’m alright but occasionally I get a snap of oversteer which catches me off guard and I can’t react to it. That isn’t to say it’s bad, it’s just not great.
A bit off topic really but Live for Speed still shines for me as fantastic force feedback. Getting the feeling and judging the balance as you get just the right amount of lift off oversteer to help turn in your fwd car. Or turning in your rwd and then almost holding the wheel straight as you play with the throttle to keep the car rotating. Raceroom is supposed to have fantastic ffb too but I’ve yet to try it.

TurboR56Mini got a reaction from phil bottle in GT 7
Yea, I'm either going to go full out with a wheel, pedals, and chair setup or stick with the controller. I know I'm decently fast irl but much of that is the feeling of being in the car. It's a visceral thing. A wheel by it self like sitting on a couch or not seated properly in general along with no pedals in the right position is honestly no better than a controller imo.

I just started watching it. I like that both of you are in it. I mean, I'm more curious on how a dragon person comes to be. I mean the logistics alone 😂

TurboR56Mini got a reaction from Riff Machine in TMNT: Cowabunga Collection
Ooo this one specifically.

TurboR56Mini reacted to Greboth in GT 7
I’ve got a full Fanatec setup though different wheel and pedals but I would recommend them. I’ve got the CSL Elite, the belt driven predecessor to the CSL DD, so I’ve been keeping an eye on reviews of the CSL DD. In short, if you’re buying for your first wheel it’s a fantastic bit of kit.
To come across maybe a little snobbish, GT is good with a wheel but if you go for it I’d recommend trying some ‘proper’ PC sims to see what it can really do.

This has my inner child just beaming! I still have my SNES copy of Turtles in Time!

Knowing most of the tracks definitely helps with some of the challenges. Although I did have to make one race 'medium' difficulty as my car was simply not keeping pace.
It also took me a while to realise if I want to change my power output to get my PP down, I have to buy a mod for each car that enables that option in the tuning.
It's been great so far and I'm enjoying it a lot.
I'm switching between this and Cyberpunk as my main games right now.

It is definitely fully fleshed out thats for sure. You don't actually unlock the Multiplayer until you finish Menu Book 9, which I think looking back is a good thing. Usually if you just pick up the game people don't fully understand everything that's going on, so this early learning as the game flows you about everywhere is really helpful - and it means you have a good bunch of cars to start your collection too.
Looking forward to going back on soke licences and circuit experiences to see where I land in the FG pack as I've usually just tried to get gold and then move on so far!
Oh, and it definitely feels more challenging to drive the cars. Haptic feedback on a PS5 controller may have something to do with that.

Out of our two encounter completions I got two of the new weapons. Played a bit no real review yet. They look kinda neato.

GGs folks. It was nice to get my feet moist for what little of this raid I’ve seen.

I’ve been looking forward to this one so this news is disappointing. But, I’d rather they get it done right then rush it.

TurboR56Mini reacted to GazzaGarratt in Forspoken
Most places these days have a 'pass' for this kind of message due to so many developers not being able to accurately predict when they are ready. Always seems the right thing to do, to have a more finished product out there. Although, it does make you slightly concerned as not all delayed releases still launch well *cough Anthem cough* 😄Fingers crossed they can use the time to launch really well.
-
TurboR56Mini reacted to IRaMPaGe in Forspoken
It sucks when a game is delayed, however I would rather more time given to hopefully sort things rather than the half baked release.
Especially these days with the likes of Cod, BF, Cyberpunk etc.
