Well...my impressions..good luck in reading my post
I was expecting much from the vids and photos which i saw in the past months..
In general i feel good but not as i was expecting..
More in depth:
Just to clear that im Kunos fun(in terms of physics-ffb...feeling in general)..
Pls dont take me as a fanboy cause i hate fanboys
,i like the "truth"
Driving experience:
Months ago,i asked in ISI forums how is the feeling..can u give us more info about that?(its the first thing i look into a sim and its the most important for me and physics of course)
They answered positive but in the end its up to me cause i had to drive it..
I read also(from an inside ISI's stuff i guess) that he cant drive anymore rfactor1 cause in rfactor 2 feeling is much better..
Also in ISI forums the last weeks finnaly i saw many asking pls make feeling of nkpro etc..
And yesterday before i buy it,i saw a post saying rfactor 2 its up there with nkpro and i was happy!
Started with formula renault..I was kind..well..i cant feel it like nkpro but it has something strange..I couldnt understand its ffb.I made more laps..Then i realised that it has the same feeling like many rfactor formula mods that u
cant feel if the tyres have grip in the exit of the turn so u can press gas..The wheel in this point hasnt any strength and cant understand what to do...
Again,my first thought when judging a sim is the "driving experience"..as kunos said in his last interview "no compromises"..Maybe im a little hard on this sry about that
So,i then tested the renault megane..I said nice! I felt more info in my wheel,i could drive it more easy in turns cause i could feel more..
It was better but nothing excited! It was very good in general!
And now the best part...The old formula(sry i dont remeber names
).....Wow! I said this is it! Fantastic work! I felt it like nkpro,i was driving it with a big smile in my face! I could feel everything! I just couldnt stop lapping and lapping..
I drove a little in the rain and it was very easy and i wanted more acuaplaing like nkpro.I was driving after turn 1 in monaco with rain and i was pressing full gas and there u can turn a little bit the wheel so u can turn these 2 fast corners,and i was expecting to loose...it didnt happend just a little bit.I wanted to feel the loose of the rear when u go over a puddle.It wasnt much slippery,but i dont know how much the implement the rain maybe it isnt finished or maybe i need more laps.
Conclusion of my driving expeirence is that if they can make such a good feeling in the old formula i suppose they can make the other cars aewsome too! I know its a beta so ill wait for next updates,i hope others have the same impression and ISI will update them!
Now,my impression in other things..
Graphics:I have a 6950 2gb..I was running at first everything full except antilising to x4(it can go to x8)..
My impression was nice,ok they seem good,i liked some animations,i liked a lot the "look" of the tyres especially when u lock them,very nice! (flatspots,tyre wear,smoke..aewsome!)
I puted then x8 and i saw diference.More detail but no something aewsome.
The look of the track was nice in general,but again in some photos was better and i expecting better but its ok for me cause as i told u before other things are important for me.
Sounds:It was very good,i liked them.Especially in the old formula..very clean sound,enjoyable! In the formula renault was a little strange but maybe is the rpm's,i wanted it more clear..
Also another cool sound is when u go to grass and then come back u hear the sound of the tyre trying to through away any grass u have in the tyres! very cool!
And the sound when u slide was very nice!
Enviroment sounds were ok,i liked the horns.
Imersion:It was ok.It has the "vibration" thing like rfactor 1 which i dont like it,i think its kinda cheap trick.ISI wrote that in monaco has many bumps thats why we see much of that vibration,in other tracks doesnt make so much vibration.Well i made laps in Sepang and it had it a lot,but thats my opinion.
I liked the movment of the head.In game stock car has a very good imersion when driving from cockpit! I like to be that imersion to rfactor2!
I didnt drive in night which i think it will be very cool!
In general a very good package! After driving the old formula i guess it has much pontetial! I was glad also to see that they gave attetion in driving expeirence!
Anyway time will show..its a beta in the end
These are my impressions from my perspective,with my criteria,from my point of view..maybe im wrong
I hope everyone enjoyed and keep enjoying this new sim!
Cheers
I know its a big post :eek:
Edit:I correct a sentence lol...

cant lol...it was the opposite impresion lol
