This game deserves proper OT, not that I could do one mind you

I know, but unless someone steps forward, that's probably about as good as you'll get.

Oh shit. I'm already feeling that this game is gonna just get buried under forza 7 hype.

Fuck it. I'll do one even though I'll probably get accused of shilling.

What's the process for this?

You need some images (Tyler!) and some body text, that's the easy part, the difficult bit is remembering to keep it up to date (see my AC OT).

Think there is a guide of sorts somewhere on here.......

Start OT process here I believe

I'm asking WMD2 for help.

Yeh I just need some guidelines on sizes for the banners & images then I'm good to go.

I can use images that have been posted throughout this thread as long as I get permission correct?

Just use a previous OT as a guide / framework for image sizes etc.

Thanks for stepping up GHG


Hope this game surprises some people

Any Ideas for OT titles?

Any Ideas for OT titles?

Mascot's idea was "Francorchamps valley and the four seasons", which is good, but you have to be over 40 to get the reference!

Project cars 2 ot:

-weather the storms 24/7

-It's racing seasons

-yes you can also use a controller this time

Ooooo, might want to wait for the game to be in the wild before we start making sweeping statements like that

Haha true. Was just for shits n giggles but we can hope

"Are we seasoned racers now?"

 

[seattle6418]

I´m always bad at thread tittles, but i thought about something like

Project CARS 2 OT it´s Gran Turismo 7

But it´s kind of a cheap shot and only GT orphans who migrated to other games can relate to.

Also, the OT will be nice, but most of the fun will be in the predict GTS/Forza/Pcars2 metacritic and sales thread followed by the review thread of those games. Madness is coming.

Madness is right. Sound and fury from people making sweeping comparisons who haven't played all three games.

 

[patchday]

Got an oculus rift on the way. Already have a bunch of good racing wheels so I am rdy to be fully immersed and forget everything else when this game drops

------------------

OT Suggestions-

|OT| Virtual Hot Wheels!

 

[danowat]

Some compilation footage from Gamersyde.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-jQbsbpGvk

Has that strange braking tyre squeal always been there?,it's even on wet roads, not noticed it before, and I am not sure I like it.

edit : I am also going to go out on a limb and say it's gamepad footage.

 

[dragn]

how active was the online mode in pcars 1? only great around release or are ppl still racing online?

 

[TylerDurden4321]

I'm not sure either, but I think I could like it if it can be turned down with a slider in the audio settings.

Shill!

Good man.

Any Ideas for OT titles?

Project CARS 2 |OT| Francorchamps Valley and the Four Seasons

edit: ninja'd by Dan.

Project CARS 2 |OT| First Glove

Project CARS 2 |OT| Seasoned To Perfection

Project CARS 2 |OT| The Track Is Alive With The Sound of Backfire

*shrugs*

So what's the word on game pad support at this time?

 

[fresquito]

So what's the word on game pad support at this time?

Everyone agrees it is much improved.

Nobody will believe until they try themselves.

 

[Fox Mulder]

Oh shit. I'm already feeling that this game is gonna just get buried under forza 7 hype.

They chose to release against Forza and GT Sport instead of like June or so.

I'm still passing on Forza for now and have loved that series since the fist Xbox. I'm just burned out on it and it doesn't look that new really. Forza 6 in 4k with pretty rain.

Pcars 2 looks more interesting with more ambitious features and has looked good in streams.

I need to move on from gamepad to a wheel and might do that later this month.

 

[Gestault]

Hell yeah, GHG. Thanks for the effort.

 

[VVV Mars VG]

Yep, I've got an extensive pad video coming late next week, huge improvements. It really is like playing GT or Forza, very straight forward, even with the Lotus 98T.

 

[op_ivy]

a little confrontational but...

Project CARS 2 |OT| five hundred and twenty fewer cars but, more importantly, twice the tracks!

Well, that one's too long, not fun and pun'y, but I kinda like the idea with the "confrontational". Hitting at GTS's "no real single player" and Forza's pre-baked dynamic weather and time of day (that isn't really dynamic, just pulling scenarios from a small pool of pre-made ones) would be better in my opinion. I tried for a few minutes... giving up for now.

Not as putting the finger in the wounds that deep, but best thing I could come up:
Project CARS 2 |OT| A Meteorologist's Dream
Project CARS 2 |OT| It's much better now! (no, really!)
Project CARS 2 |OT| Drivatarless Single Player Goodness[or Drivatarless Single Player Career]

 

[seattle6418]

Project Cars 2 |OT| Winter is coming (and so is Summer, Autumn and Spring)

 

[low-G]

Project Cars 2 |OT| Real Virtua Racing

 

[VVV Mars VG]

[LostDonkey]

Project Cars 2's a crowd, Four's a tour is more fun

 

[jrcbandit]

I'm not really into racers but the VR support is supposed to be greatly improved for PC2, anyone here try out VR yet?

 

[TheMan]

Good. I have a wheel but sometimes I don't feel like setting that shit up, you know?

 

[danowat]

Project Cars 2: its not forza or gran turismo.

Project Cars 2: Bell Weather (lead not follow)

Ian Bell + Dynamic weather =

bellwether
ˈbɛlwɛðə/Submit
noun
the leading sheep of a flock, with a bell on its neck.
something that leads or indicates a trend.
"Basildon is now the bellwether of Britain's voting behaviour"

 

[fresquito]

Project CARS 2 |OT| When others are still discussing "dynamic" and you are in another season already

 

[soundscream]

Or you could make a thread title that highlights the positives of the game rather then try to throw dirt on another franchise. Unless you think the game cant stand on its own merits?

 

[Mascot]

Seasons, LiveTrack and loads of circuits are the big USPs, so...

Project CARS 2 |OT| Tracks Of My Years

 

[Calm Mind]

Gamesmaya (Japanese videogame retailer) has this game scheduled for release on September 21st.

Project CARS 2 |OT|: Please don't confuse this game with that awful Pixar movie!

 

[Patrick S.]

Project CARS 2 |OT| - works with controllers

 

[Bobnob]

Will there be a demo ? Seems like a opportunity to get those burnt by the bad controller setting in the last game back onboard.

 

[Klocker]

Yes it really needs to be said.

otherwise every other post will say some shit about pcars 1 controls

 

[patchday]

oh man I cant imagine using a pad with racing game havent done that since the early GT5 days
